Technical illustration: Automotive antennas

CUSTOM DEVELOPMENT

Automotive antennas for radio reception, communication, navigation and radar.

We develop and optimise vehicle antennas. Simulation and measurement account for the metal bodywork, glazing, installation position and multiple radio services operating simultaneously.

01 / TECHNOLOGY & DEVELOPMENT

Antenna integration in vehicles

The vehicle environment changes matching and spatial coverage. We compare suitable antenna positions and investigate the effects of the mounting surface, enclosure and feed cable.

02 / TECHNOLOGY & DEVELOPMENT

RF signal paths and coexistence

We assess coupling between antennas and interference in the receiver path. Filters, LNAs, coaxial cables and PCB transitions are coordinated with the vehicle frequency plan.

03 / TECHNOLOGY & DEVELOPMENT

Radar arrays and development evidence

Our project experience includes the design of an antenna array for automotive ACC radar at 24 GHz. For new tasks, we agree frequency range, scope and test criteria; required vehicle qualifications are defined separately.

THREE ROUTES TO THE RIGHT SOLUTION

Develop a new design. Optimise an existing solution. Customise products.

01

New development

We develop the geometry, circuit and integration around your frequency bands, installation conditions and measurable performance targets.

02

Optimisation

We analyse existing samples and documentation, identify the causes of losses or insufficient performance, and implement targeted changes.

03

Product customisation

We assess an existing Sevskiy solution and adapt its frequency tuning, connectors or installation. We can undertake volume production on request.

OUR APPROACH

From requirements to a tested design.

  1. 01

    Requirements and interfaces

    We clarify the frequency plan, available space, mechanical environment, supply, connections and test criteria. Existing CAD data, schematics and measurements are included in the assessment.

  2. 02

    Design and simulation

    We compare suitable concepts, design the circuit or geometry, and simulate critical electromagnetic structures and transitions.

  3. 03

    Prototypes and measurement-based refinement

    We build prototypes, measure under defined conditions and refine the design by comparing the model with the actual assembly.

  4. 04

    Design approval and volume production

    We document the agreed configuration and test plan. Production support and volume manufacturing are agreed as required.

YOUR DELIVERABLES

Technically documented and ready for the next development step.

The result is an antenna and RF concept designed for the intended vehicle installation. We can develop a new design, optimise existing assemblies or customise suitable products.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Technical questions about working with us.

What automotive experience do you have?

Our documented project experience includes automotive antennas and an antenna array for ACC radar at 24 GHz, together with RF design and integration.

Is automotive certification automatically included?

Qualification, environmental testing and certification evidence are agreed for the specific project. They are not automatically included in every antenna development project.

YOUR RF REQUIREMENTS

Developing the right antenna and RF solution together.

We work with you to determine whether a new design, optimisation or product customisation is the right approach.
