Summary:In order to be able to investigate future Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communication systems, the need for realistic simulation environments is increasing. Especially, the integration of realistic antenna models which account for several non-ideal effects such as e.g. mutual coupling or the influence of a finite ground plane size is important. In this paper, a comparison of two possible multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) antenna configurations consisting of three antennas mounted on the car at different positions is carried out using a complex simulation environment. In particular, the receive diversity and the MIMO capacity are considered since the link robustness as well as the increase of spectral efficiency are important issues.
