Abstract :
Rigorous electromagnetic (EM) modeling of cars and airplanes on a PC by using the large-domain method of moments is presented. A Golf GL is analyzed, with different wire antennas mounted on or situated in it, at 98 MHz (FM) and 860 MHz (cellular telephone). A Boeing 737-300 is analyzed in both the scatterer (RCS) and the antenna mode of operation at 100 MHz (low-frequency radar and aircraft navigation). It is demonstrated that an accurate and efficient rigorous EM-field computational method must be considered as an indispensable tool for the analysis and design of wireless communication systems that include cars and airplanes
