Implication

Experimental evaluation demonstrates dual-band performance for GPS and DSRC in a low-profile antenna, indicating viable integration for connected vehicle systems.

Key Points

To design, implement, and validate a single low-profile integrated microstrip antenna capable of dual-band operation for GPS and dedicated short-range communication systems.
Engineered an integrated microstrip antenna configuration targeting both the 1.575 GHz GPS L1 band and the 5.88 GHz DSRC band.
Fabricated a physical prototype and conducted comprehensive pattern and polarization measurements across both operational frequencies.
Achieved stable circular polarization at the 1.575 GHz GPS L1 band.
Delivered vertical linear polarization across the 5.88 GHz band for DSRC applications.
Maintained a compact, low-profile form factor while satisfying strict radiation pattern and polarization requirements in both operational bands.
