In this study, we establish a car body PEC model by using a NEC-2-based numerical software. Based on this model, we then carry out a series of simulations and analysis in the FM band concerning the effects of various car structures on antenna patterns. The results have been compared with those available in open literature in order to verify our model. The simulation results show that the roof support pillars significantly affect the antenna patterns. We investigate the ripples caused by the finite ground plane in the antenna patterns, and propose a new edge treatment technique. Our results indicate that a significant reduction of these unwanted ripples can be obtained, if the proposed technique is applied. The effect of car glasses and human body is also taken into consideration. At last, the issue of studying the effects at higher frequencies is addressed. Two approaches are used, including UTD, and PO. Satisfactory results are obtained.
