A stacked square microstrip antenna (MSA) with a shorting post is proposed as a car antenna for a road‐vehicle communications system. The proposed antenna receives signals with uniform level within the communication area for this road‐vehicle communications system and its size is much smaller than that of the conventional rectangular microstrip antenna. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
