“…In addition, the proposed antenna operates at three GPS bands, which the antennas in [13][14][15][16] are not able to reach. In [17], although the antenna operates at three GPS bands and it's gain is similar to the proposed antenna, but the sizes of the antenna are much larger. Compared to [18], the overall size of this antenna is similar to the proposed antenna size, but this antenna operates at two bands: 1.575 and 2.4 GHz (this will reduce the overall antenna size).…”

This study presents an antenna design that operates at the three bands of the Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver. The optimised Minkowski island fractal structure combined with the central window is used to design the radiation surface to reduce the size and adjust the resonance frequencies of the antenna. The antenna was designed, and simulated by HFSS computer code, and was fabricated on microwave laminate FR4‐epoxy by fast laser prototyping. The resulting fractal antenna has been operating at three GPS‐bands: fL2 = 1.227, fL5 = 1.176, and fL1 = 1.575 GHz, with return loss S11 < −15 dB, bandwidths BW > 21.5 MHz, for VSWR < 2, at 50‐Ω input impedance, the power gains ∼2.4, 2.85, and 4.2 dBi, and axial ratio of right‐handed circular polarisation 1.5, 03, and 06 dB at fL5, fL2, and fL1, respectively. The simulated and experimental results agree favourable.

“…For example, the gain is higher than that of similar-sized antennas (antenna in [14]). The size is smaller than that of similar-gain antennas (antennas in [13,[15][16][17]). In addition, the proposed antenna operates at three GPS bands, which the antennas in [13][14][15][16] are not able to reach.…”

“…Several microstrip patch antenna are presented in the literature for GPS applications [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23]. [17] proposed an antenna for a GPS system based on an open-loop resonator, a split rectangular slot, and a stub at the non-radiating edge to generate three operating bands. Awais et al [18] use four-element antenna array for the proposed antenna for a navigation satellite system.…”

A microstrip patch antenna for Global Positioning System (GPS) application is presented in this study. It has a rectangular shape with two notched slots. The notched slots are introduced to improve the adaptation between the microstrip line and the antenna. The antenna was designed and simulated by CST using FR-4 material as the substrate with relative permittivity of 4.3. The proposed microstrip antenna is designed to operate in the GPS band frequency from 1.555 GHz to 1.595 GHz. The performance analysis of the proposed antennas has been carried out in terms of return loss (dB), gain (dB), and VSWR.

“…Multiband antennas have attracted interest of researchers worldwide. A number of studies have discussed multiband CP and/or linearly polarized (LP) antenna designs with single or multiple feeding points in the open literature . Quadrifiler helixes, annular rings, slotted patches, split ring resonators (SRRs) and stacked patches are some of the popular ways to generate multiple resonances with good CP operation.…”

Design of a multiband circularly polarized antenna is proposed in this article. The antenna has a simple and compact form factor by employing single-feed stacked patch structure. It exhibits good performance at the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) frequency bands of L1, L2, and L5 and cellular communications frequency band of 2.3 GHz. The antenna has a 3-dB axial ratio bandwidth of 1.1%, 1.0%, 4.1%, and 1.5% at the four operating bands of L1 (1.575 GHz), L2(1.227 GHz), L5 (1.176 GHz), and 2.3 GHz. The antenna also achieves a gain of more than 2.2 dBiC and efficiency of more than 70% at the four frequencies. A detailed parametric study is carried out to investigate the importance of different structural elements on the antenna performance. Results are verified through close agreement of simulations and experimental measurements of the fabricated prototype. Good impedance matching, axial ratio bandwidth, and radiation characteristics at the four operating bands along with small profile and mechanically stable structure make this antenna a good candidate for current and future GNSS devices, mobile terminals, and small satellites for 5G/Beyond 5G (5G/B5G) applications.
