Problems arise in providing excitation phases and amplitudes to individual antenna elements for wide-angle scanning by applying spherical array antennas for mobile satellite communications for ships, automobiles, and aircraft. These antennas do not have many antenna elements. Thus, emphasis is on ob
## Abstract An economical electronically‐scanned patch antenna array with quasi‐hemispheric coverage is under design in our laboratory for Inmarsat satellite communications. This paper reports the CAD simulation and test results of a simple‐structured, electromagnetically‐coupled patch antenna with
## Abstract A new satellite‐tracking method is proposed for a directional antenna installed on a car for L‐band land‐mobile satellite communication. This method uses both a fiber optic gyroscope (FOG) and a magnetic compass (MC) with an open‐loop control algorithm, which com pensates for the disadv
In this research, a patch array antenna for mobile satellite communications aiming at ETS-VIII applications has been developed. The ground plane size effects on the antenna characteristics were investigated. Finite and infinite ground planes were analysed by the finite integration technique (FIT) fo
