description In this paper, a dual-polarized stacked patch antenna for wireless communication and microwave power transfer is proposed. The stacked antenna consists of four rectangular apertures that are etched on the ground plane and four identical cross-placed coupling strips that are set on the upper layer of the ground plane, which are used to excite the top-layer patches. The presented stacked patch antenna was designed as a completely symmetric structure except for the feeding network, resulting in a simple structure and the same radiation patterns for the two polarized ports. The proposed antenna operates at around 5.8 GHz, and the simulation and measured results show that it has a gain of 8.5 dBi and an isolation of 25 dB. The measured antenna efficiency of the two polarized ports at 5.85 GHz was 89.2% and 88.6%, respectively. Finally, a rectifying circuit was designed, and the maximum measured conversion efficiency of the two polarized rectenna was 63.5% and 62.7%, respectively.
