On March 25th 2021, the MAGICA Consortium and the GSA hold a four hours virtual meeting for Preliminary Design Review. In the meeting, 3 different novel antenna topologies were presented: Crossed Dipoles, Crossed IFAs and Stacked Patches concepts. All them were designed considering the requirements defined in the previous milestone meeting. For all antenna topologies, polizer circuits and antenna’s front-end topology with the key components were also shown.
The preliminary simulation results of the radiating element and the front-end confirm the feasibility of obtaining a multi-frequency and multi-constellation GNSS antenna with the specified dimensions and meeting the automotive antenna requirements.
