The prime intention of the ARTIC Industrial Training (AIT) is the dissemination of
information for vehicle communications (AM/FM-Radio, TV, DVB-T, GSM/UMTS, GPS,
C2C, V2V, .....). The course is based on the relevant fundamentals on antennas and the
propagation channel. The specific mobile to base station and mobile to mobile radio
channel characteristics will be presented. The relevant characteristics of vehicle
antennas are evaluated, taking into account their functionalities and design aspects.
Combining antennas and the radio channel, the inherent system aspects will be
elaborated for Diversity, SIMO and MIMO. DSRC spectrum allocations and standards,
e.g. IEEE 802.11p will be discussed. One of the goals of the course is to present
processes for the optimization of car integrated antenna systems prior to their
hardware development and vehicle integration by „Virtual Drive“.
The course will be given by teachers from university and industry.
