Several antenna designs that utilize the NAVSTAR Global Positioning System in a low-cost system for general aviation aircraft were evaluated. Experimental investigations were made of crossed-dipoles, various types of crossed-slots, and microstrip antennas with modifications to improve their coverage. Principal plane radiation patterns for several of these antennas were measured on a one-seventh scale model of a Gates Lear Jet.
