Abstract :
This paper focuses on that the surface wave on antennas has great effects on its performance in Dedicated Short Range Communication (DSRC) system. A slot coupled right-hand circularly polarized (RHCP) patch antenna operated at 5.8GHz is presented, on which the coupling slots optimized to not only remarkably reduce the surface wave but also reduce the radiation on back. The simulated and measured return losses show that the proposed antenna has the bandwidth of about 2GHz.
