Abstract :
Concept and realization of a phased array antenna for road traffic applications based on the 5.8 GHz dedicated short range communication standard is presented. Localization and tracking of vehicles is possible even at high velocities and under critical signal situations. Measurements confirm a robust system performance and high reliability.
