Abstract :
Results of a three-dimensional electromagnetic (3D EM) simulation of a generic automobile is presented. Full wave MoM based 3D EM code was applied to compute the normalized received power between a transmitter and a receiver of a tire pressure monitor system (TPMS) on a simplified model of an automobile. An overview of the procedure used to calculate the TPMS normalized received power using the EM modeling procedure is provided.
