Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Mehrbereichsantenne für eine Empfangs- und/oder Sendeeinrichtung für den mobilen Einsatz, insbesondere Fahrzeugen, bestehend aus einer beidseitig kupferkaschierten Leiterplatte, wobei die kupferkaschierten Flächen auf den Leiterplattenseiten Antennenstrahlerstrukturen für den Mobilfunkbereich, WLAN und/oder Navigationsdienste darstellen und hierfür Schlitzstrahler- und Monopolstrukturen ausgebildet sind gemäß Anspruch 1.The invention relates to a multi-range antenna for a receiving and / or transmitting device for mobile use, in particular vehicles, consisting of a printed circuit board that is copper-clad on both sides, the copper-clad surfaces on the sides of the circuit board representing antenna radiator structures for mobile communications, WLAN and / or navigation services and monopole structures are formed according to claim 1.

Aus der US 6,664,932 B2 ist eine multifunktionale Antenne für WLAN und telematische Applikationen vorbekannt, welche auf der Basis einer gedruckten Leiterplatte ausgeführt ist. Diesbezüglich sind bei einer Ausführungsform der dortigen Erfindung GPS-Antennen sowie Antennen für den Satelliten-Radioempfang auf einer der Leiterplattenseiten ausgebildet. Auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite befinden sich Schlitzantennen für GSM-Empfang aber auch für den terrestrischen Rundfunkempfang. Die Strahler für den GSM-Empfang werden kreisbogenförmig realisiert und weisen eine Struktur auf, die nach Möglichkeit scharfe Ecken oder Kanten in den Strahlern vermeidet. Die Entkopplung der einzelnen Antennenelemente gemäß der vorbekannten Lösung ist jedoch unzureichend, so dass sich bei der Anwendung der Antenne Nutzungseinschränkungen ergeben. Patch-Antennen benötigen weiterhin einen relativ großen Abstand zwischen dem Patch und dem sogenannten Ground-Plane. Aus diesem Grunde muss die eingesetzte Leiterplatte eine relativ große Dicke besitzen und deshalb eine hohe Masse aufweisen.From the US 6,664,932 B2 a multifunctional antenna for WLAN and telematic applications is previously known, which is designed on the basis of a printed circuit board. In this regard, in one embodiment of the invention there, GPS antennas and antennas for satellite radio reception are formed on one of the sides of the circuit board. On the opposite side there are slot antennas for GSM reception but also for terrestrial radio reception. The emitters for GSM reception are realized in the shape of a circular arc and have a structure that avoids sharp corners or edges in the emitters as far as possible. The decoupling of the individual antenna elements according to the previously known solution is inadequate, however, so that there are restrictions on use when using the antenna. Patch antennas also require a relatively large distance between the patch and the so-called ground plane. For this reason, the printed circuit board used must have a relatively large thickness and therefore have a high mass.

Aus der WO 2015/124463 A1 ist eine Mehrbereichsantenne für eine Empfangs- und/oder Sendeeinrichtung für den mobilen Einsatz, insbesondere Kraftfahrzeuge, vorbekannt. Diese Antenne besteht aus einer Trägerplatte zur Aufnahme von elektrischen Anschlusselementen sowie zur Antennenmontage. Auf der Trägerplatte erstreckt sich von dieser im Wesentlichen senkrecht eine kupferkaschierte Leiterplatte.From the WO 2015/124463 A1 a multi-range antenna for a receiving and / or transmitting device for mobile use, in particular motor vehicles, is previously known. This antenna consists of a carrier plate to accommodate electrical connection elements and to mount the antenna. A copper-clad printed circuit board extends essentially perpendicularly from the carrier plate on the carrier plate.

Die Strukturen der Leiterplatte sind so ausgebildet, dass auf einer ersten Leiterplattenseite eine Mobilfunk-Monopolstrahlerstruktur und eine Anschlussflächenstrutur für einen fixierbaren CB-Strahler entsteht. Das elektrische Feld zwischen der Anschlussflächenstruktur und der Monopolstrahlerstruktur ist orthogonal polarisiert, wobei beide Strahler räumlich getrennt sind. Auf der zweiten, der ersten gegenüberliegenden Leiterplattenseite ist eine geerdete Mobilfunk-Zick-Zack-Schlitzstrahler-Struktur ausgebildet, welche von der Monopolstrahlerstruktur erregt wird.The structures of the printed circuit board are designed in such a way that a mobile radio monopole radiator structure and a connection surface structure for a fixable CB radiator are created on a first side of the printed circuit board. The electric field between the connection surface structure and the monopole radiator structure is orthogonally polarized, the two radiators being spatially separated. On the second, opposite side of the printed circuit board, a grounded cellular zigzag slot radiator structure is formed, which is excited by the monopole radiator structure.

Die Fläche der Leiterplatte ist so ausgeführt, dass diese im Wesentlichen die Längsschnittfläche eines Gehäuses für die Antenne ausfülltThe surface of the circuit board is designed in such a way that it essentially fills the longitudinal sectional surface of a housing for the antenna

Aus der US 2010/0238079 A1 sowie der EP 3 244 486 A1 sind weitere Mehrbandantennen bekannt, die auf Leiterplatten aufgebracht sind.From the US 2010/0238079 A1 as well as the EP 3 244 486 A1 further multiband antennas are known which are mounted on printed circuit boards.

Aus dem Vorgenannten ist es Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine weiterentwickelte Mehrbereichsantenne für eine Empfangs- und/oder Sendeeinrichtung für den mobilen Einsatz anzugeben, welche herstellungsseitig nur einen geringen Kostenaufwand ermöglicht und dabei gleichzeitig hervorragende Antennenparameter liefert. Die Antenne soll nur über eine überschaubare Grundfläche und eine geringe Masse verfügen, so dass diese insbesondere als Glasklebe-Multiband-Antenne angewendet werden kann.From the above, it is the object of the invention to provide a further developed multi-range antenna for a receiving and / or transmitting device for mobile use, which allows only low costs in terms of production and at the same time provides excellent antenna parameters. The antenna should only have a manageable base area and a low mass, so that it can be used in particular as a glass adhesive multiband antenna.

Die Lösung der Aufgabe der Erfindung erfolgt durch die Mehrbereichsantenne gemäß der Merkmalskombination nach Anspruch 1, wobei die Unteransprüche mindestens zweckmäßige Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen umfassen.The object of the invention is achieved by the multi-range antenna according to the combination of features according to claim 1, the subclaims comprising at least useful configurations and developments.

Es wird demnach von einer Mehrbereichsantenne für eine Empfangs- und/oder Sendeeinrichtung für den mobilen Einsatz, insbesondere für den Einsatz in Fahrzeugen, ausgegangen.A multi-range antenna for a receiving and / or transmitting device for mobile use, in particular for use in vehicles, is therefore assumed.

Die Mehrbereichsantenne besteht aus einer beidseitig kupferkaschierten Leiterplatte, wobei die kupferkaschierten Flächen auf den Leiterplattenseiten Antennenstrukturen für den Mobilfunk, WLAN und/oder Navigationsdienste darstellen und hierfür Schlitzstrahler- und Monopolstrukturen ausgebildet werden.The multi-range antenna consists of a copper-clad printed circuit board on both sides, with the copper-clad surfaces on the printed circuit board sides representing antenna structures for mobile radio, WLAN and / or navigation services and slot radiator and monopole structures being designed for this purpose.

Erfindungsgemäß ist auf der ersten kupferkaschierten Leiterplattenseite eine großflächige Massekaschierung vorgesehen, wobei entlang einer Symmetrieachse die Massekaschierung teilweise durch einen geradlinig verlaufenden Schlitz unterbrochen ist.According to the invention, a large-area earth lamination is provided on the first copper-clad side of the printed circuit board, along an axis of symmetry the mass lamination is partially interrupted by a straight slot.

Hierdurch entsteht eine erste und eine zweite, entlang der Symmetrieachse verlaufende Massekaschierungsfläche.This creates a first and a second mass covering surface running along the axis of symmetry.

Innerhalb der ersten und der zweiten Massekaschierungsfläche sind zwei, bevorzugt ebenfalls symmetrisch zum Schlitz verlaufende MIMO-Mobilfunk-Schlitzstrahler-Strukturen ausgebildet.Two MIMO cellular radio slot radiator structures, which preferably also run symmetrically to the slot, are formed within the first and second ground lamination surfaces.

Weiterhin sind auf der zweiten kupferkaschierten Leiterplattenseite mehrere Mikrostreifenleitungen und weitere Antennenstrukturen ausgebildet, welche mit den Strukturen auf der ersten Leiterplattenseite kapazitiv und/oder induktiv gekoppelt sind. Ebenfalls befinden sich auf der zweiten kupferkaschierten Leiterplattenseite die entsprechenden Antennenanschlüsse zur Speisung.Furthermore, a plurality of microstrip lines and further antenna structures are formed on the second copper-clad side of the printed circuit board, which are capacitively and / or inductively coupled to the structures on the first side of the printed circuit board. The corresponding antenna connections for power supply are also located on the second copper-clad side of the circuit board.

Bei einer Ausführungsform der Erfindung weist die kupferkaschierte Leiterplatte eine symmetrische Form bezüglich ihrer horizontalen und vertikalen Ausdehnung auf.In one embodiment of the invention, the copper-clad printed circuit board has a symmetrical shape with respect to its horizontal and vertical dimensions.

Bevorzugt kann es sich bei der kupferkaschierten Fläche um eine solche Gestalt eines Quadrates oder eines Rechteckes handeln. Das kupferkaschierte Material kann auch eine gewisse Flexibilität aufweisen, um beispielsweise bei einer Glasklebeantenne diese auch an einer gebogenen bzw. sphärisch verlaufenden Scheibe eines Kraftfahrzeuges fixieren zu können.The copper-clad surface can preferably be such a shape of a square or a rectangle. The copper-clad material can also have a certain flexibility in order, for example, in the case of an adhesive glass antenna, to be able to fix it to a curved or spherical window of a motor vehicle.

Der Schlitz auf der ersten kupferkaschierten Leiterplattenseite verläuft von der oberen Kantenseite der Leiterplatte in Richtung unterer Kantenseite der Leiterplatte. Die untere Kantenseite der Leiterplatte ist diejenige, welche die Antennenspeiseanschlüsse aufnimmt.The slot on the first copper-clad side of the circuit board runs from the upper edge side of the circuit board in the direction of the lower edge side of the circuit board. The lower edge side of the circuit board is the one that receives the antenna feed connections.

Auf der zweiten Massekaschierungsfläche ist ein Schlitzstrahler für Navigationsdienste ausgebildet, wobei der Schlitzstrahler einen ersten Abschnitt aufweist, welcher parallel zum Schlitz und einen zweiten Abschnitt aufweist, welcher senkrecht zum Schlitz verläuft.A slot radiator for navigation services is formed on the second ground lamination surface, the slot radiator having a first section which is parallel to the slot and a second section which runs perpendicular to the slot.

Der erste Abschnitt ist hierbei kürzer als der zweite Abschnitt gewählt. Der kürzere Abschnitt ist mit dem Schlitz zum Erhalt einer zirkularen Polarisation gekoppelt.The first section is selected to be shorter than the second section. The shorter section is coupled to the slit to obtain circular polarization.

Der geradlinig verlaufende Schlitz weist eine Doppelfunktion auf.The straight slot has a double function.

Zum Ersten besteht die Funktion der Entkopplung von MIMO-Mobilfunkantennen. Zum Zweiten ist eine Mitwirkung zum Erhalt der zirkularen Polarisation der Navigationsschlitzantenne maßgeblich. Bei der Navigationsschlitzantenne ermöglichen die zwei im Wesentlichen senkrecht zueinander verlaufenden Schlitzteile zum einen den Empfang horizontal polarisierter Signale. Hierfür kommt der längere Abschnitt zur Anwendung. Der kürzere Abschnitt ist stark an den vertikalen geradlinigen Schlitz gekoppelt, der vertikal-polarisierte Signale empfängt. Die räumliche Trennung zwischen dem geradlinig verlaufenden Schlitz und dem zweiten Abschnitt und ihre senkechte Zuordnung ermöglichen die erwähnte Zirkular-Polarisation.First, there is the function of decoupling MIMO cellular antennas. Second, a contribution to maintaining the circular polarization of the navigation slot antenna is essential. In the case of the navigation slot antenna, the two slot parts running essentially perpendicular to one another enable, on the one hand, the reception of horizontally polarized signals. The longer section is used for this. The shorter section is strongly coupled to the vertical rectilinear slot which receives vertically polarized signals. The spatial separation between the rectilinear slit and the second section and their perpendicular association enable the aforementioned circular polarization.

Die zweite kupferkaschierte Leiterplattenseite weist zwei symmetrisch ausgebildete MIMO-Mobilfunkstrukturen auf und umfasst weiterhin drei Mikrostreifenleitungen.The second copper-clad side of the printed circuit board has two symmetrically designed MIMO cellular structures and also includes three microstrip lines.

Die symmetrisch ausgebildeten MIMO-Mobilfunkstrukturen sind jeweils am Eingang der ersten und zweiten Mikrostreifenleitung angeschlossen. Deren Ausgang bildet den ersten und zweiten Ausgang für den Mobilfunkbereich.The symmetrically designed MIMO cellular structures are each connected to the input of the first and second microstrip lines. Its output forms the first and second output for the cellular area.

Ein Ende der dritten Mikrostreifenleitung ist an den zweiteiligen Schlitzstrahler auf der ersten Leiterplattenseite angekoppelt. Das zweite Ende der dritten Mikrostreifenleitung bildet den Ausgang für den Navigationsdienst.One end of the third microstrip line is coupled to the two-part slot radiator on the first side of the circuit board. The second end of the third microstrip line forms the exit for the navigation service.

Das zweite Ende der dritten Mikrostreifenleitung ist mit dem Eingang eines rauscharmen Verstärkers in Weiterbildung der Erfindung verbindbar, dessen Ausgang dann den Anschluss für den Navigationsdienst darstellt.The second end of the third microstrip line can be connected to the input of a low-noise amplifier in a further development of the invention, the output of which then represents the connection for the navigation service.

Alle gegebenenfalls erforderlichen elektronischen Bauelemente inklusive Verstärker sind auf mindestens einer der beiden Leiterplattenseiten anordenbar. Mindestens eine der Leiterplattenseiten weist eine Beschichtung zum Aufkleben auf eine Kunststoff- oder Glasoberfläche auf, so dass der Zweck der Anwendung als Glasklebe-Antenne erfüllt ist.All electronic components that may be required, including amplifiers, can be arranged on at least one of the two sides of the circuit board. At least one of the printed circuit board sides has a coating to be glued to a plastic or glass surface, so that the purpose of the application as a glass adhesive antenna is fulfilled.

Die Mobilfunkausgänge und der Ausgang für den Navigationsdienst GNSS können jeweils als Koaxialkabelausgang realisiert werden. Ebenso besteht die Möglichkeit, die Mobilfunkausgänge und den Ausgang für den Navigationsdienst jeweils als HF-Stecker oder Buchse zu realisieren.The cell phone outputs and the output for the GNSS navigation service can each be implemented as a coaxial cable output. It is also possible to implement the cell phone outputs and the output for the navigation service as an HF plug or socket.

Die Länge des geradlinig verlaufenden Schlitzes steht bei einer Ausführungsform der Erfindung in einem Verhältnis von 0,8 bis 0,9 zur Breite der ersten kupferkaschierten Leiterplattenseite.In one embodiment of the invention, the length of the straight slot is in a ratio of 0.8 to 0.9 to the width of the first copper-clad side of the printed circuit board.

In Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist die MIMO-Mobilfunk-Schlitzstrahler-Struktur als sogenannte Zick-Zack-Schlitzstrahler-Struktur ausführbar.In a further development of the invention, the MIMO cellular radio slot radiator structure can be implemented as a so-called zigzag slot radiator structure.

Die Erfindung soll nachstehend anhand eines Ausführungsbeispieles sowie unter Zuhilfenahme von Figuren näher erläutert werden.The invention is to be explained in more detail below using an exemplary embodiment and with the aid of figures.
