An aperture antenna for transmitting a circularly polarized signal is provided. The aperture antenna includes an antenna substrate, a feed conductor and an antenna ground layer. The feed conductor is microstrip-fed or coplanar-wave-guide-fed. The antenna ground layer has an aperture, the aperture has a feed portion, a signal turning point, a first edge and a second edge, the first edge connects the feed portion to the signal turning point in a first direction, and the second edge connects the feed portion to the signal turning point in a second direction, the first direction is opposite to the second direction. When the aperture antenna transmits the circularly polarized signal, a traveling wave travels on the first edge, and at least one standing wave is formed on the second edge.

Aperture antenna

An antenna module is provided. The antenna module includes an antenna and an EBG element. The EBG element includes an EBG ground layer, a plurality of reflective units and a plurality of connection posts. The reflective units are arranged in a matrix, a gap is formed between the nearby reflective units, and the reflective units are corresponding to the antenna. Each connection post connects the reflective unit to the EBG ground layer.
