## Abstract The investigations on short‐circuited microstrip patch antennas, which are able to generate multiple resonance frequencies in the wireless communication bands, are reported. In these antennas, by properly choosing the positions of shorted posts, good impedance matching can be obtained.

Abstract
Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) is the key enabling technology for the present and future vehicular communication for various applications, such as safety improvement and traffic jam mitigation.This paper describes the development of a microstrip antenna array for the roadside equipment of a DSRC system, whose characteristics are according with the vehicular communications standards. The proposed antenna, with circular polarization, has a wide bandwidth, enough to cover the current European DSRC 5.8 GHz band and the future 5.9 GHz band for next generation DSRC communications. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
