A system with one or more transceiver antenna assemblies for installation in vehicle side-view mirrors to enable communication with nearby vehicles. Each transceiver antenna assembly may have one or two antenna arrays implemented on a single printed circuit board, protected by an antenna housing used to mount the transceiver antenna inside the mirror assembly. Each antenna array in a dual-channel transceiver antenna may transmit and receive data over one of two DSRC channels. One channel may be used to transmit and receive vehicle data only and the other channel may be used to transmit and receive both vehicle data and audio/video (A/V) data. Each antenna array is connected to a radio in the vehicle that processes received signals and prepares signals for transmission. Such a transceiver antenna system may be especially useful for communication in truck platooning.

An antenna apparatus includes a first radiation area, a phase adjustment area and a second radiation area. The first radiation area is disposed opposite to the second radiation area. The first radiation area is connected to one end of the phase adjustment area. The other end of the phase adjustment area is connected to the second radiation area. The first radiation area includes a feeding point of the antenna apparatus. The second radiation area includes a ground point of the antenna apparatus. The phase adjustment area is used to adjust a phase of a signal fed by the feeding point, to change a direction of a space electromagnetic field formed by an electromagnetic signal radiated by each of the first radiation area and the second radiation area.

Antenna systems have a substrate and antenna on the substrate, where the antenna has a plurality of leg elements. The plurality of leg elements comprises a conductive ink and forms a continuous path. At least one of the plurality of leg elements is individually selectable or de-selectable to change a resonant frequency of the antenna, and leg elements that are selected create an antenna path length corresponding to the resonant frequency. In some embodiments, the antennas are energy harvesters.
