Abstract :
A low-cost method for improving mobile FM reception is discussed. The problem suffered by FM in a moving car is the sporadic distortion of reception due to multipath propagation. Improvement can be obtained by multi antenna diversity system because the probability of simultaneous distortion on all antennas is greatly reduced as the number of antennas increases.<>
