CORRELATION CAR BODY-ANTENNA, FOR GOOD RECEPTION IN COMMUNICATIONS AND ENTERTAINMENT

Abstract

The new cars are equipped with the most modern communication systems. The implementation of communication systems are positive consequences in safety, comfort and entertainment. A good reception on the car is influenced by a lot of parameters, but the antenna is the first element. Using an antenna on the roof of car body or on other places of the body, is a complex and interactive process of designing, adapting and measuring the performances. Finding optimal positions is a reiterating process based on simulating methods and measurements. This study presents the simulation process for the assembly: metallic car body – integrated antenna, using mathematic methods.
