Abstract
An investigation into the performance of a microstrip patch antenna integra ted into a laminated glass windscreen for a vehicle is presented. It is fed using a coplanar waveguide feed printed on the innermost layer of the glas s avoiding the need for a contacting feed. The patch and ground plane are m eshed for manufacturing in the glass.
