Here, a low-profile microstrip patch antenna with vertical polarisation and over 3 dB enhanced gain in the horizontal plane is proposed for dedicated short-range communications (DSRC) application. It is a centre-fed circular patch antenna coupled by an annular ring and shorted concentrically with a...
