Funded Activity Summary

Embedded Antenna Technology in Smart Polymeric Composite Structures. This project is about embedding Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) reception technology in polymeric composite components to be deployed in automobiles. The aim of the project is to investigate the various parameters involved in integrating several participating technologies necessary to produce such smart components. The parameters to be investigated include the disciplines of composite materials, patch antenna and wireless communication technologies. The significance and outcome of this project is the development of a manufacturing method to make a normal looking composite component with GPS signal processing capabilities. It is also expected that the findings from this project can be extended to other sensor-based industries.
