In this paper, the implementation of a null-steering antenna array using GPS patch antennas is suggested. The antenna array consists of five patch antenna elements fabricated on the ceramic substrate. The antenna element proposed here is a typical circular polarization patch and a prototype patch array antenna is manufactured on the PCB. The antenna has one reference element located at the center and other four elements are placed at the corners. A null in the direction of the jamming signal can be produced by changing the phases of 4-elements. Simulation results of the array antenna by CST MWS are presented and discussed. The basic performances are measured and the results are shown. The results show that the antenna presented here can be used to remove the signals from the directions of any jammers.

In this paper, a microstrip patch antenna with the T-shaped slits is designed and fabricated for GPS. The resonant frequency of the microstrip patch antenna with the slits is lower than that of a microstrip patch antenna without the slits so it can be reduced the size of patch. In order to calculate resonant frequency of the microstrip patch antenna with the slits, the resonant frequency formulas are derived from the surface current distribution on microstrip patch antenna. Using the Ensemble 6.0 simulation tool, the accuracy of approximate equations is verified. The microstrip patch antenna with the slits is designed by using these equations. The size of the designed antenna with T-shaped slits can be reduced to 29% compared with that without the slits. The microstrip patch antenna with slits have a very narrow bandwidth. In order to improve the narrow bandwidth of microstrip patch antennas with the slits, a microstrip patch antenna with rectangular slot is proposed. As the result of the measurements, the resonant frequency of the proposed microstrip patch antenna with the T-shaped slits is 1.575GHz and the bandwidth is about 50MHz.

In this paper, printed antenna which can be applied to a built-in wireless module of the security controller operating at global positioning system(GPS) L1 frequency band(1.575GHz) is proposed. The proposed antenna is basically composed of a microstrip patch antenna with inserting feed. In particular left and right slots which are respectively asymmetric are used for impedance matching, whereas slot with one open-end and shorting point are used on the bottom plane to set operating frequency and enhance bandwidth. It is observed at the desired GPS L1 frequency band that the radiation efficiency and gain of the proposed antenna are 90% and more than 4.8dBi respectively.

To get the highly-accurate and precise position of a GPS receiver, they should consider the state-of-the-art GPS force and measurement models. Especially, the phase center variations (PCV) of a GPS antenna can cause several centimeters of positioning errors in the vertical direction. In this study, we implemented four different models of PCV and evaluated their impact on the computed coordinates. The test data were taken from the 14 National Geography Information Institute permanent GPS stations and 30 Minisry of Government Administration and Home Affairs sites. For different combinations of calibration methods, an average of 1.3-2.6cm of height difference was observed. Also, we found a maximum error of ${\sim}4mm$ in the estimates of the precipitable water vapors.

In this paper, two dualband internal antennas for GPS/PCS handset are proposed. At first, the monopole antenna with parasitic dipole element is designed to print PCB of handset directly. At second, the antenna with bended loop structure is designed to bend to use internal space of handset maximumly. The proposed dualband internal antennas provide a 2:1 VSWR bandwidth of over 19.1 % which are possible to cover two bands at once. the antennas have a gain between -0.4 and 3.33 ㏈i at all bands and they have almost omni-directional patterns.

Enhanced bandwidths of the GPS microstrip patch antennas applied by a Wilkinson power divider and a quadrature hybrid were compared. The square patch was designed, and fed by the two port probes for the circuit application. The Wilkinson power divider and quadrature hybrid circuit were designed, and applied to the patch antenna. The designed patch and two circuits were implemented on the FR4 board, and combined together. The measurement of the bandwidth within a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) of 2: 1 were 36.5% (1,200~1,775 MHz) in the case of the Wilkinson power divider and 29.84% (1,230~1,700 MHz) in the case of the quadrature hybrid. Axial ratios (AR) in 3dB were 17.14% bandwidth (1,360~1,630 MHz) and 15.87% bandwidth (1,400~1,650 MHz), respectively. The application of the Wilkinson power divider is wider than that of the quadrature hybrid. The peak gains in the anechoic chamber at the GPS center frequency were measured as 2.84 dBi and 2.75 dBi, respectively.

In this paper, design and fabrication of the GPS receiving antenna using Hilbert curve fractal structure was proposed. The size of the antenna was miniaturized by transforming dipole structure into monopole structure because its size increases if Hilbert curve fractal dipole structure is used. To use a Hilbert curve structure, the current directions of the radiator were made oppositely each other. The size of the antenna is $10{\times}10{\times}0.8[mm]$, the line width is 0.25[mm]. The resonant frequency is 1.58[GHz] and its range is 1.52[GHz] ~ 1.65[GHz]. Frequency bandwidth is 130[MHz]. Antenna maximum gain is 3.09[dBi].

In this paper, we design microstrip antenna for GPS / WiFi for broadband mobile communication. The proposed antenna is designed to be used in the FR-4 (er = 4.3), the size is $40mm{\times}50mm$, and it can be used in the GPS frequency band of 1.6GHz and the WiFi frequency band of 5GHz. 2014, and the simulation result shows that the gain is 1.909dB at 1.6GHz and 4.607dB at 5GHz. The S-parameter also showed a result of less than -10dB (WSWR2: 1) in the desired frequency band. Recently, it is expected that GPS navigation system, which is widely used in smart phones and tablet PCs, can be easily and conveniently used by combining and applying GPS with WiFi.
