As wireless communications become ever more pervasive in our daily lives, engineers are trying to design products that add functionality and communications to an increasing assortment of devices. GPS is one of the more well known applications leveraging satellite communication. Increasingly satellite radio has expanded it penetration and will continue to do so in the coming years. Bluetooth and short range wireless applications such RFID continue to grow and are poised to change the way business perform their operations.
In the near future, we anticipate an explosion of sensor systems that will wirelessly enable customers and provide information anywhere at any time. Engineers designing these systems consistently look for elegant antenna solutions that are invisible to the customer and are cost effective to utilize. Patch Antennas are increasingly selected as the antenna to use in GPS, Inmarsat, Globalstar, Satellite Radio and ISM applications.
