Abstract
This article has been retracted at the request of the Editor-in-Chief due to extended similarites with an unpublished paper, written by other authors, that was submitted (but not yet published) to several other journals and was probably leaked during the review process. The authors of the unpublished paper contacted the Editor-In-Chief with the above claim after the publication of this issue and ETASR has contacted several of the journals mentioned and the investigation resulted in the confirmation of the report. The authors of this paper failed to provide any reasoning regarding the case.
Highlights
Dedicated short range communication (DSRC) is popularized worldwide as the wireless communication protocol for vehicles following Wi-Fi architecture [1] and it was initially focused on low overhead operations following IEEE 802.11a standards
Two linear half mode substrate integrated waveguide (HMSIW) semi-hexagonal array antennas, viz Antenna-1 (1×2) elements have been designed and fabricated using Arlon AD270 substrate using the parent HMSIW semihexagonal antenna structure as shown in Figure 8 with their dimensions listed in Table IV and V
The realization of the antenna array is done with the help of power distribution network and for the most optimized performance the distribution network is designed in order to feed equal power into each array element spaced at a distance of 0.7λ0 from each other
Summary
Dedicated short range communication (DSRC) is popularized worldwide as the wireless communication protocol for vehicles following Wi-Fi architecture [1] and it was initially focused on low overhead operations following IEEE 802.11a standards. WAVE, following IEEE 802.11p standards, provides real-time traffic information, improves transportation safety, minimizes traffic congestion and helps maintaining transport sustainability. It helps establishing communication between vehicles (V2V) or between vehicles and roadside information (V2I) in the 5.9 GHz band (5.85–5.925 GHz) [2-5]. With the involvement of several companies, car manufacturers and universities worldwide pursued extensive research to develop IEEE 802.11p standard commercial products. Researchers extended their contribution in developing printed antennas and arrays to be used in conjunction with other devices for short range communication to support ITS applications [6-9].
