Abstract
A single patch antenna suitable for integration and operation in 24 GHz band for wireless inter vehicular communication is designed and developed. The requirements on the design are the large bandwidth, simple configuration, light weight and low profile. The antenna is fed by using inset feed line to provide impedance matching. Antenna gain values of ∼5.9 dBi are obtained in addition to a very less return loss of ~39 dB. The developed antenna provides a bandwidth of 120 MHz and an input impedance of ~50Ω. The antenna was tested in a real time environment and the received power levels are noted. A simple Rician channel is simulated for the measured values and the BER is tabulated.
