Automotive

Modern vehicles are complex electromagnetic systems. They carry many wireless subsystems and distributed electronics, and they interact constantly with the world around them: other vehicles, infrastructure, and road systems. Radio, GPS, Wi-Fi, satellite connectivity, and driver-assistance systems are only a few of the RF systems that must be designed with the whole system-of-systems in mind.

The engineering challenge

The problems that matter are whole-vehicle problems. Reliable high-frequency scattering analysis for radar and collision avoidance depends on the full geometry, including body panels, glass, and surrounding structure. Electromagnetic compatibility between the vehicle's many RF systems has to be designed for up front, because a subsystem that works in isolation can fail once everything is integrated.

A full vehicle is electrically large and materially complex, with metal and glass surfaces that behave very differently. That is exactly the class of problem where legacy tools run out of memory and force you to simplify the model.

Component-level models miss the scattering effects of the full vehicle geometry

Subsystems that work in isolation can interfere once installed together

Metal, glass, and composite surfaces behave differently and must be modeled as they are

Interference problems found in prototypes are expensive to fix late

The Nullspace solution

Nullspace EM analyzes the vehicle's RF systems as installed, so results can be trusted for design decisions involving safety and connectivity requirements. The same rigorous solver handles an antenna alone, that antenna on a metal-roof vehicle, and the same antenna on a glass-roof vehicle, capturing the differences that matter.

Full-fidelity, full-vehicle analysis becomes practical, which reduces the number of prototype iterations needed to get the design right.

Scattering and antenna performance are computed on the complete vehicle geometry

All onboard RF systems are simulated together, so integration issues surface in design

Material differences between metal, glass, and composites are captured, not approximated

Interference surprises are caught in simulation, before hardware is built
