Smart Antenna Design And Implementation For Vehicles

Wireless communication has eased out human life by eradicated wires jargons running around electronic systems for extending connections. Wireless sensors have made human life comfortable. Self-driving cars will be the era of next generation vehicles. These vehicles will be housing many integrated sensors for taking autonomous decisions while in route. These vehicles have communication capability with infrastructure as well as self. They are equipped with facilities of infotainment and entertainment. Communication wirelessly with self and surrounding have utmost need of compact and efficient integrated antennas for these automotive vehicles. MIMO based antenna has been proposed for diversity reception along with compact size and futuristic aesthetic design. Experimental results have been compared with simulated with close proximity. Self-reliance vehicles embedded with Nano DRA have been unique features of this research. Futuristic design of automotive vehicles should be self-driving and self-charging with possible integration of Nano antennas and Long Range Radar (LRR) as sensor. Overview of smart vehicle antennas has also been included. Possible efficient and compact antennas for use of smart vehicles have been proposed.
