    NOVEL AUTOMOTIVE ANTENNA DESIGNS UTILIZING CHARACTERISTIC MODE ANALYSIS
    (2023-01-01) Abdul-Rahman, Ehab Mahmoud; Aloi, Daniel N; Li, Jia; Nassar, Sayed; Schmidt, Darrell
    The Theory of Characteristic Modes (TCM) provides a valuable method for antenna analysis. It helps decompose the total radiation into a set of orthogonal radiation modes. Each mode exhibits a unique reaction in terms of its current distribution and radiation pattern. TCM has proven helpful in numerous antenna design applications, such as enhancing radiation patterns, decoupling antennas, increasing bandwidth, and achieving input impedance match.This study aims to apply characteristic mode analysis (CMA) to address automotive antenna design challenges. The work involves synthesizing and controlling the desired radiation characteristic mode (CM) at the intended frequency range to achieve an excellent radiation pattern for automotive applications. The study focuses on practical antenna design for the newly defined 5G-sub 6GHz cellular bands in the 0.617-5 GHz range and its cooperation with other coexisting wireless antennas for other wireless functions.
