The invention relates to a one-point short-circuit circularly polarized antenna with a low-profile cavity-backed annular slot. The existing cavity-backed circularly polarized antenna based on one-point short-circuit of the annular slot has complex structure, large volume, inability to planar integration, and high cost. In the present invention, a metal layer is plated on both sides of the dielectric substrate, and the upper metal layer is etched with a microstrip line for power feeding and a common ground coplanar waveguide transmission line, and the middle metal strip of the coplanar waveguide transmission line extends outwards as a microstrip line . Through the upper metal layer, the dielectric substrate and the lower metal layer, a plurality of metallized through holes arranged in a circle are opened to form a cavity, and the coplanar waveguide transmission line extends into the cavity. The lower metal layer is etched with a circular radiation slit with a short circuit in the area corresponding to the cavity. Compared with the conventional cavity-backed circularly polarized antenna composed of a metal cavity, the present invention is manufactured by common PCB technology, has low manufacturing cost, can be seamlessly integrated with a microstrip circuit, and improves system integration.
