A circularly polarized antenna based on a dual dipole topology is designed in this work. Circular polarization is achieved by placing two pair of parallel dipoles orthogonally and introducing a 90o phase difference between the four arms feeding the dipole using a phase shifter. The two arms of each dipole are located on the opposite sides of the single-layered substrate and fed using a probe feed. Disclosure to the environment can be negatively impact an antenna's radiation aspects and lead to greater. One way to protect these devices is to evaluate the proposed CP antenna with metamaterial radome design, which is closures that can shield antenna while improving the overall performance, by integrated with a metamaterial radome designed based on L-shaped unit cells. The application of this radome improved the impedance bandwidth from 3.9 % (without radome) to 6.3 % and the 3-dB axial ratio bandwidth from 3.2 % to 5.9 %. A prototype of the designed antenna structure is manufactured and measured. The designed and fabricated antenna has a simple structure and does not include disagreeable difficulty of the recently reported Complementary Cross-Dipole Antennas (CCDA). The antenna has a good radiation behavior in the improved desired gain of 4.31 dBi to at least 6.35 dBi due to the contribution of the radome. Design steps for achieving circular polarization and performance improvements are presented and validated experimentally using a fabricated prototype.
