Summary:
A DSRC antenna integrated in an existing automotive roof-mount quad-band antenna (Cell, GPS & XM) is presented. VSWR, isolation and gain measurements are shown for this antenna. Onvehicle measurements show that a DSRC antenna with better than 2:1 VSWR and -5dBi vertical average gain at azimuth can be achieved with minimal effect on existing multi-band antenna.
