Abstract :
This paper addresses the concept of a multi-antenna system for deployment in Public Regulated Service (PRS) GNSS bands. A design of a stacked patch antenna element based on proven microstrip and stripline technology is presented. The coverage of both PRS operational bands and basic performance tests of a 2×2 array are shown by means of simulation results. Measurement results for validation will be presented at the conference.
