Investigation of vehicle body radiation pattern as an antenna transmission system

Wireless communication is in high demand in today’s society. The mobility of communication is not limited to the people walking along the streets but also for those who are driving. Therefore, communication inside the vehicles has become more and more important. The problem faced today by the common...
