Abstract :
An antenna system for automotive intelligent cruise-control application contains two separate printed circuit antennas: wide beam transmit antenna and three narrow beam receive antenna. The Rotman lens beamforming network is used-to provide multibeam operation of receive antenna. The design of the antenna system is discussed and test results are presented.
