Development of Circular Monopole Antenna for Intelligent Transportation System

Abstract

Circular monopole antenna design is very attractive research area in smart city area. There have been many research works in that area for getting the better performance and higher accuracy. The paper presents the development of circular monopole antenna for intelligent transportation system based on the idea of vehicular communication network. In this work, the design of antenna parameters are very important to make the novel design of proposed antenna system with specific frequency range. At first, the radiation efficiency with respect to height, dielectric constant and Resonant Frequency of the substrate for designing the antenna system. And then, the effective permittivity versus width and length of the proposed antenna system. The design with stripline circular monopole antenna and coplanar waveguide circular monopole antenna have been developed with the help of FEKO software and MATLAB codes. The return loss with SL-CMA and CPWCMA by using the reflection coefficient and smith chart analysis. And the radiation pattern based on E-plane and H-plane and far-field with 3D plot have been analyzed by using simulation tools. The simulation results confirmed the designed monopole antenna has been received the better performance for intelligent transportation system applications. Based on the simulation results, the proposed antenna design would be utilized for Intelligent Transportation System with specific frequency.
