Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine vertikale Breitband-Monopolantenne für zwei durch eine Frequenzlücke getrennte Frequenzbänder - das Unterband für die niedrigeren Frequenzen und das Oberband für die höheren Frequenzen - beide im Dezimeterwellenbereich gelegen, für Fahrzeuge und für Senden und/oder Empfang mit terrestrisch ausgestrahlten vertikal polarisierten Funksignalen über einer im Wesentlichen horizontalen leitenden Grundfläche als Fahrzeugmasse mit einer im Monopol-Fußpunkt befindlichen Antennenanschlussstelle. Die Breitband-Monopolantenne ist aus einem Oberband-Monopol und einem Unterband-Monopol kombiniert gebildet und aus einer elektrisch leitenden flächigen Struktur über einer leitenden Grundfläche im Wesentlichen in einer senkrecht zu dieser orientierten Ebene verlaufend gestaltet.

The invention relates to a vertical broadband monopole antenna for two frequency bands separated by a frequency gap - the lower band for the lower frequencies and the upper band for the higher frequencies - both located in the Dezimeterwellenbereich, for vehicles and for transmitting and / or receiving terrestrially emitted vertically polarized radio signals over a substantially horizontal conductive base as vehicle mass with an antenna junction located in the monopole footpoint. The broadband monopole antenna is formed of a top band monopole and a subband monopole combined and made of an electrically conductive planar structure over a conductive base substantially in a plane perpendicular to this oriented plane designed.
