Abstract
Safety is the prime concern which drives the development of vehicular communication as support to intelligent transportation systems. The communication networks play a key role and supported by different components among which antenna plays a very crucial role. This paper presents a compact and new design of circular polarized (CP) patch antenna for use in wireless avionics intra-communications (WAICs) and intelligent transportation systems (ITS). Experimental results of the reflection coefficient, gain, and the radiation pattern is consistent with simulation. The prototype antenna can operate in a 4.4 GHz WAICs band with reflection coefficient under −15 dB and gain 8.3 dBi. In 5.9 GHz ITS band it operates with reflection coefficient under −15 dB and gain 8.8 dBi.
