Abstract :
This research proposes a low-profile dual-band UHF antenna that can be integrated into a multi-band antenna system for public safety vehicles to cover the Ultra High Frequency (UHF), Global Positioning System (LI-GPS), and Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) bands. The antenna system is designed to be small enough to fit on the roof of the vehicle (about 30 cm in diameter), while being only about 3 cm in height.
