摘要: Since the Global Positioning System (GPS) was launched, significant progress has been made in GPS receiver technology but multipath error remains an unsolved problem. As solutions based on signal processing are not adequate, most effective approach to discriminate between direct and waves is specify new more restrictive criteria design of receiving antenna. An innovative low profile, lightweight dual band (L1+L2) radiator with a high multipath-rejection capability presented. The proposed solution realized by two stacked shorted annular elliptical patch antennas. In what follows, detailed account process antenna performances given, presenting both simulated experimental results.
