Definitions

  • the invention lies in the technical field of window production and relates to an antenna disk with one or more integrated surface antennas, an antenna disk arrangement, a method for producing the antenna disk, and the use thereof.
  • Modern motor vehicles have a large number of technical devices for sending and receiving high-frequency electromagnetic radiation, in particular to enable the operation of basic services such as radio reception, mobile telephony, satellite-based navigation (GPS) and wireless Internet (WLAN).
  • 5G is planned, with which, compared to the previous 4G standard, much higher data rates and capacities can be achieved.
  • 5G is expected to use the 0.6 to 6 GHz frequency range. This presents vehicle manufacturers with new challenges, as 5G also provides for the use of so-called MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) technology, in which several transmit and receive antennas are used for data transmission.
  • MIMO Multiple Input Multiple Output
  • Vehicle glazing in current vehicles increasingly has full-surface, electrically conductive layers that are transparent to visible light. These electrically conductive layers are used, for example, to protect the vehicle interior from overheating by sunlight by reflecting incident thermal radiation, as is known from EP 378917 A, for example.
  • electrically conductive layers can bring about targeted heating of the pane by applying an electrical voltage in order to remove ice or condensation, as is known, for example, from WO 2010/043598 A1.
  • Electrically conductive layers are impermeable to electromagnetic radiation in the high frequency range. If the glazing of a vehicle is fully equipped with electrically conductive layers on all sides, it is no longer possible to send and receive electromagnetic radiation in the interior of the vehicle. For the operation of sensors arranged on the vehicle interior side, such as rain sensors, camera systems or stationary antennas, locally limited areas of the electrically conductive layer are usually stripped. These stripped areas, which form so-called communication or data transmission windows, are known, for example, from EP 1605729 A2.
  • Discs with a metallic layer are known from EP 0 717 459 A1, US 2003/0080909 A1 and DE 198 17 712 C1, which have a grid-shaped stripping of the metallic layer, which acts as a low-pass filter for incident high-frequency electromagnetic radiation.
  • WO 2014060203 A1 a disk with a metallic layer is known, the grid-shaped stripping of which is permeable to high-frequency electromagnetic radiation.
  • such communication windows can be too small to enable the sending and receiving of high-frequency electromagnetic radiation, as is necessary, for example, for mobile telephony and satellite navigation. This is especially true if the antenna required for this is located far away from the window and only a small amount of signal intensity can reach the reception area of the antenna through a small communication window or only a small amount of signal intensity can be sent to the outside through the communication window. Nevertheless, the user expects that cell phones can be operated at any position in the interior of a vehicle.
  • the antenna signal coupled out from the planar antenna is fed to an antenna amplifier which is connected to the metal body in motor vehicles, whereby a high-frequency technically effective reference potential for the antenna signal is given.
  • the usable antenna voltage results from the difference between the reference potential of the vehicle body and the potential of the antenna signal.
  • EP 3 300 167 A1 discloses a pane with a monopole antenna of the unipolar type.
  • the wire-shaped monopole antenna has a first connection area that serves as the first electrode.
  • An electrically conductive coating on the pane has a second connection area that serves as a second electrode.
  • EP 3 249 743 A1 discloses a pane with an electrically conductive coating into which a slot antenna is incorporated. One area of the coating provides a reference potential.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide an improved pane (hereinafter referred to as "antenna pane" for easier reference) with one or more integrated surface antennas that enables good reception of high-frequency electromagnetic radiation, especially in the frequency range of the Mo biltelefonie according to the 5G standard, and is easy and inexpensive to produce.

  • the antenna pane comprises at least one antenna structure, in particular a plurality of antenna structures. A description of the antenna structure follows:
  • the or each antenna structure comprises an electrically conductive layer with antenna function, hereinafter referred to as “antenna layer” for easier reference, which is used to receive and / or transmit high-frequency antenna signals.
  • antenna layer for easier reference, which is used to receive and / or transmit high-frequency antenna signals.
  • high-frequency antenna signals should be in the frequency range from 600 MHz to 6 GHz, i.e. in the frequency range provided for the 5G mobile radio standard.
  • the antenna layer is preferably transparent to visible light.

  • the high-frequency resistance is the electrical resistance between the antenna layer and the functional layer for antenna signals received and / or transmitted by the antenna layer.
  • the electrical resistance between the antenna layer and the functional layer for high-frequency antenna signals is high-resistance and the antenna layer is strongly decoupled from the functional layer in terms of high-frequency technology.
  • the antenna layer of the at least one antenna structure has a first connection area or signal conductor connection area which serves as a first (coupling) electrode for coupling out and / or coupling in high-frequency antenna signals received and / or transmitted by the antenna layer.
  • the functional layer has at least one second connection area or ground conductor connection area, which serves as a second (coupling) electrode for providing a reference potential for the antenna signals.
  • the first connection area can be electrically coupled or coupled to a signal line, for example galvanically or capacitive.

  • the functional layer which is galvanically separated from the antenna layer and has a high-resistance electrical resistance to the antenna layer for high-frequency antenna signals, provides a reference potential for the antenna signals that is effective in terms of high-frequency technology.
  • the usable antenna voltage results from the difference between the reference potential of the functional layer and the potential of the antenna signals.
  • the functional layer can thus advantageously function as electrical ground if it is galvanically separated from the antenna layer and decoupled in terms of high frequency technology.
  • a reference potential for the antenna signals received by the antenna layer can be provided in a simple manner and independently of the surroundings of the antenna pane.
  • it is not necessary to specify a reference potential through the metallic vehicle body which simplifies the installation of the antenna pane and the function of the integrated planar antenna can also be implemented independently of the vehicle.
  • the provision of a reference potential can sometimes only be implemented with greater effort, which according to the invention can advantageously be avoided.
