Abstract

Direction finding technique for car location in large parking lots is presented.Method uses compact phased antenna array with two‐bit phase shifters. Proposed array operates as an intermediary between a car owner hand‐held unit and car electronic circuit with small omnidirectional antenna. Only one antenna array for all cars is that utilized for car finding service. Experimental results confirm math estimations and MATLAB simulation. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
