This paper presents a novel EBG-backed antenna for geodesic applications using the future Galileo system. The antenna presents a high multipath discrimination and a very stable phase centre. The EBG ground plane proved to be a high performance, low-cost, low-weight alternative to the use of a choke ring.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
