Electromagnetic simulation and optimization have become an essential part of the vehicle development process. As the number of vehicle antennas continuously increases, antenna positions and antenna performance must be optimized in a timely and efficient manner to ensure connectivity, safety functions and electromagnetic compatibility. The methods and workflows for this digital development process are demonstrated using various realistic examples from low frequency (PEPS at 20 kHz) up to very high frequency (radar at 77 GHz).

Part 1 covers simulation driven design of vehicle antennas. By means of several simulation examples - considering 4G/5G, V2X, BT, FM/DAB, Keyless-Entry applications - antenna and connectivity performance evaluation will be demonstrated. Special focus is on optimization methods to improve antenna design and antenna positions in the vehicle.
In part 2 antenna integration analysis with numerical simulation will be discussed. Typical integration scenarios and challenges such as optimal placement of antennas behind plastic parts are treated. In particular, the evaluation of antenna vehicle positions in virtual test drives using propagation models in urban, sub-urban and rural scenarios is explained.
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) is the focus of part 3. Numerical simulation for typical EMC problems - such as radiation or crosstalk at cable harnesses or emissions from the electrical power trains - helps to identify and analyze potential EMC issues problems at an early stage and find corrective actions. A Digital Twin for vehicle immunity tests is presented to better understand the different exposure situation of EMC test on component and vehicle level. Furthermore, methods for shielding effectiveness analysis are described.
In the fourth part different advanced topics will be presented. After an overview on radar simulation on different integration levels, the numerical treatment of modern anisotropic composite materials will be explained. We then discuss the use of machine learning in CEM: Typical antenna and EMC examples are used to illustrate the use of regression, classification, clustering, dimension reduction and evolutionary learning in Electromagnetics.
