Hidden window antenna
Abstract:
A vehicle slot antenna wherein an electro-conductive coating is applied to the surface of a glass ply. The peripheral edge of the conductive coating is spaced from the vehicle window edge and connected to a high conductive bus bar to define an annular slot antenna with low resistance loss and improved antenna efficiency. The slot antenna is fed by a thin conductive line located in the middle of the slot and parallel to the bus bar. The thin line along with the conductive coating and window frame form a coplanar waveguide (CPW). The CPW feed provides a convenient feed for the antenna at any point around the perimeter of the window slot and affords antenna tuning and impedance matching. The antenna design can use the characteristic impedance of the CPW line to match the impedance of the slot antenna to the impedance of a coaxial cable or other input impedance.
