The impact of the vehicle platform on the global positioning system (GPS) performance in automotive application was investigated. Five distinct vehicle platforms were used. Each vehicle platform was equipped with a GPS antenna mounted under the front instrument panel. Two sets of measurements were conducted. The first set consisted of the vehicle-level antenna radiation pattern measurements of a passive GPS antenna. The second set consisted of a series of field tests in highway, foliage and urban driving environments. GPS position availability and position accuracy were analysed from the field testing. Results from the antenna radiation pattern measurements and the field testing were analysed to study and quantify the impact of the vehicle platform on the GPS system performance.
