Abstract
A vehicle, control method of the vehicle, and antenna for vehicle is provided. The vehicle includes an antenna having different gain characteristics in different operating frequency bands; and a controller configured to correct reception strengths of a plurality of signals having different frequencies for carrying identical content, change the gain characteristic of the antenna based on the corrected reception strengths of the signals, and obtain content from a signal having a maximum corrected reception strength among the signals having different frequencies.
Claims20
A vehicle comprising:
- an antenna having different gain characteristics in different operating frequency bands;
- and
- a controller configured to:
- correct reception strengths of a plurality of signals having different frequencies for carrying identical content;
