  • At least a part of the heating arrangement H is moreover suitable for acting as the antenna ANT.
  • Antenna is understood to mean that electromagnetic radiation can be received and / or emitted.
  • any modulated or unmodulated electromagnetic radiation which serves to transmit information is regarded as electromagnetic radiation.
  • the heating arrangement H has at least a first number of electrically conductive meander-shaped sections A-1 and a second number of electrically conductive meander-shaped sections A 2 .
  • the heating arrangement H has a first number of electrically conductive meander-shaped sections A-1 and one 2
  • the heating arrangement H has a first number of electrically conductive meandering meandering sections A-1 and a second number of electrically conductive meandering meandering sections A 2 and a third number of electrically conductive meandering meandering sections A 3 on.

  • At least one of the electrical conductors which are perpendicular to the first orientation acts as an antenna.
  • the at least one of the electrical conductors (L 2 , L 2 , L 3 ), which is perpendicular to the first alignment and acts as an antenna (ANT), has a potential different from the operating voltage when used with the operating voltage.
  • the arrangement of the presented invention allows, in particular, the common conductors Li, L 2 , L 3 , L 4 ,... To be understood as equipotential planes, so that no appreciable current flow perpendicular to the first orientation can be detected within the respective conductor. That is to say, since the current flow takes place essentially "in the first orientation", the current flowing through the operating voltage does not occur at the electrical conductors, so that unwanted hotspots on the pane 1 can not occur, ie a homogeneous distribution of the heat is made possible. At the same time, however, the function is still guaranteed as an antenna ANT.
  • the number of meandering sections and the length of the meandering sections can be suitably adjusted so that a desired heat output can be achieved at a certain glass thickness and operating voltage.
  • the antenna ANT may be provided at a suitable location with one or more contact elements.

  • MIMO spatial multiplexing
  • Diversity systems include switch diversity and phase diversity on the receiver side of the system to make profitable use of the different reception characteristics of multiple antennas, and thus, e.g. to improve the omnidirectional effect.
  • the heating arrangement H are applied or introduced as wires on or in the combination foil F of a laminated glass pane. That is, the invention is not limited to the range of specific glass panes.
  • the term "wire” should not be misunderstood, but rather wire is a rather elongated arrangement in terms of the thickness / width of the conductor, and more particularly, the term includes (screen) printed conductors.
  • the antenna ANT has its own antenna connection for connection to one or more high-frequency devices.
  • a high-frequency device may be, for example, a diplexer or the like, but also an amplifier and / or a transmitter.
  • the antenna ANT has at least one filter for separating high-frequency signals and DC voltage, so that DC voltage does not disturb the reception of high-frequency signals.
  • a filter for separating high-frequency signals and DC voltage, so that DC voltage does not disturb the reception of high-frequency signals.
  • FIG 3 an arrangement with 3 filters is shown in Figure 3, which arrangement does not necessarily have to be this way.
  • the term filter is to be understood broadly and may also include a frequency lock.
  • the filters may also be printed on the glass sheet 1, e.g. be provided as a stripline, or be provided as outlined in Figure 3 as an independent elements.
  • a low-pass filter or a plurality of low-pass filters TP-i, TP 2 may be provided to prevent high-frequency signals from entering the electrical system (indicated by exemplary 48 volts and an earth symbol).
  • the low pass can be passed from the respective operating voltage - typically a DC voltage - while the high frequency of a transmitter, such as a mobile transmitter, is not distributed via the electrical system and thus disturbances eg to the vehicle electronics or unwanted emissions can be avoided. It is not necessary to provide two low-passes. Often it is sufficient to provide a low-pass filter TP-i on the supply voltage side of the operating voltage.
  • the provision of an inductance, for example to the supply voltage side (48 volts) may be sufficient as a filter. Primarily filter and coil are used to protect the antenna from interference from the electrical system or to prevent a high-frequency short circuit of the antenna with the vehicle ground and the supply voltage side.

  • the heating arrangement H is suitable for use with an operating voltage of about 48 volts. This allows a wide range of operating voltages.

Au moins une partie du dispositif de chauffage (H) peut en outre être utilisée comme antenne (ANT). Le dispositif de chauffage comporte au moins un premier nombre de sections à méandres électriquement conductrices (A1) et un second nombre de sections à méandres électriquement conductrices (A2). Les sections à méandres sont disposées dans le premier nombre ou dans le second nombre sensiblement parallèlement les unes aux autres selon dans une première orientation. Les parties initiales et finales respectives des sections à méandres dans le premier nombre et dans le second nombre se terminent chacune par un conducteur électrique commun (L1, L2, L3), qui s'étend sensiblement perpendiculairement à la première orientation. Au moins un conducteur électrique (L2, L2, L3), sensiblement perpendiculaire à la première orientation, est utilisé comme une antenne (ANT). Lorsqu'il est utilisé avec la tension de fonctionnement, l'au moins un des conducteurs électriques (L2, L2, L3), sensiblement perpendiculairement à la première orientation et utilisé comme antenne (ANT), a un potentiel différent de la tension de fonctionnement.
