Definitions

  • the invention concerns an antenna assembly and a vehicle.
  • an antenna assembly especially for a vehicle, comprises:
  • the antenna feed and ground connections do not need to be galvanically connected to the associated electrical circuit connections on a printed circuit board. Both feed and ground pins of the antenna can only be capacitively coupled to the electronic circuit inputs of a printed circuit board without any galvanic contact. Press-fit or soldering are not necessary and, also, no possibility of imperfect electrical contact or corrosion during time should occur.
  • the invention also comprises embodiments that provide features which afford additional technical advantages.
  • the antenna assembly is comprising on the underside of one layer of the printed circuit board
  • the (PCB) feed line pad and the (PCB) ground line pad are in the area of the (antenna) feed connection pad and the (antenna) ground connection pad.
  • the (PCB) feed line pad and the (PCB) ground line pad are located on the side opposite to the antenna side of the printed circuit board preferably on an inner layer, which also contains an electronic circuit for at least one telecommunication and/or telephony system.
  • the antenna element comprises preferably a conductive metal sheet and/or is a PIFA or IFA antenna element.
  • the antenna assembly comprises at least one antenna element for cellular mobile communication and/or for WiFi communication and/or for a satellite positioning system.
  • the invention also provides a vehicle comprising an antenna assembly.
  • the invention also comprises the combinations of the features of the described embodiments.
  • Fig. 6 and 7 show an antenna assembly 1 with one or more antenna elements on the roof 2 of a vehicle 3 (e.g. a passenger car or truck or bus).
  • a vehicle 3 e.g. a passenger car or truck or bus.
  • Fig. 2 shows a schematic illustration of an embodiment of an inventive antenna assembly 1, wherein the printed circuit board 4 comprises two layers 14, 15, each with a top side 12; 17 and bottom side 18; 19 (wherein 12 here is the upper side 5 of the PCB and the upper side 12 of the top layer of the PCB).
  • the feed connection pad 7 is capacitively coupled (through one layer 14 of the printed circuit board 4) to a (dotted) feed line pad 9 of the printed circuit board 4
  • the ground connection pad 8 is capacitively coupled (through one layer 14 of the printed circuit board 4) to a (dotted) ground line pad 10 of the printed circuit board 4.
  • the feed line pad 9 and the ground line pad 10 are in the area of the feed connection pad 7 and the ground connection pad 8, fully or partially overlapping.
  • the feed line 13 for the antenna element 11 comprises enlarged area at its ends forming the feed line pad 9 and the ground line pad 10 is a defined surface directly connected to rest of the ground and to the other ground layers while using vias e.g. 16
  • the antenna element 11 can e.g. comprise a conductive metal sheet and/or it can be a PIFA or IFA antenna element.
  • the antenna assembly 1 can comprise one antenna element 11 or two or more antenna elements for cellular mobile communication and/or for WiFi communication and/or for a satellite positioning system and or for further purposes.
  • Embodiments of the invention can avoid high cost given by possible alternative implementation/mounting processes, in which a classic metallic IFA or PIFA structure antenna has to be fixed in the plastic housing and also soldered on the mainboard to ensure an electrical contact with the corresponding circuit.
  • Embodiments of the invention are proposing an idea for the implementation of an antenna in telephony systems which addresses the problems mentioned above. This can still allow using a PIFA design, but a difference consists in the fact that the antenna feed and ground connections do not need to be galvanically connected anymore to the associated electrical circuit connections. Both feed and ground pins of the antenna can only be capacitively coupled to the electronic circuit inputs without any galvanic contact. This can mean that there is no press-fit or soldering needed and, also, no possibility of imperfect electrical contact or corrosion during time.
  • An antenna element 11 of the antenna assembly 1 can be is realized out of conductive metal sheet in the form of a PIFA structure with one feeding pin (with feed connection pad 7) and one grounding pin (with ground connection pad 8).
  • the antenna assembly 1 can be fixed in a plastic housing in a few plastic hot-melted points, then the complete housing can be pressed on the printed circuit board 4 with screws 22, 23 e. g in four corners, from which e.g. one of them can be going through the antenna ground pin (e.g. through the pad 8).
  • the antenna feeding pin (pad 7) can be held in place and pressed onto the printed circuit board 4 by a housing shoulder behind it.
  • the presented result data is showing very good performance for the desired frequency bands, both in overall (S11) and radiation efficiency. Also, from the radiation pattern measurements, a total gain with a good behavior was obtained, quasi-omnidirectional on the entire frequency range.
  • the described embodiments of the invention can be successfully implemented in real life, delivering the required performance in automotive telephony products.
  • the design can be, of course, extended to other services, by changing the dimensions of the antenna elements and adapting the frequency bands.
