Abstract :
A compact 3.5" 4-element dual-band GPS array was designed for adaptive nulling applications. An important feature of this design is antenna miniaturization via slots (inductive) loading. This design concept can, of course, be applied to other narrow-band antennas. Simulated results were given exhibiting good performances when the antenna is functioning in isolation and in-situ of the array.
