Overview
Designing and validating antenna systems for automotive applications — covering GNSS, 4G/5G cellular, V2X, short-range radar, and shark-fin integration — with full-vehicle simulation to achieve multi-band coverage and regulatory compliance.
Deliverables
Key Aspects
Designing integrated antenna systems covering LTE/5G (700 MHz–6 GHz), GNSS (L1/L2/L5), V2X (5.9 GHz), and Wi-Fi/Bluetooth bands within constrained automotive mounting locations and aesthetic requirements.
Evaluating MIMO antenna system performance including envelope correlation coefficient, mean effective gain, total active reflection coefficient, and diversity gain to assess multi-antenna system capacity.
Simulating full-vehicle models to evaluate how body panels, roof geometry, window coatings, and nearby metallic structures affect pattern coverage, efficiency, and band separation for each antenna port.
Validating antenna system performance against ETSI, FCC, and automotive OEM specifications for gain, coverage, efficiency, and EMC compliance — generating pre-certification documentation for antenna homologation.
