Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce the operating time by matching an antenna with a required direction only with a slight turning. SOLUTION: A plurality of wave guides are integrated with one Yagi antenna. The design of the Yagi antenna having the directivity in a single direction only usually is changed to provide the directivity in a plurality of directions and practical sensitivity in the respective directions. A higher sensitivity than that of the conventional antenna is obtained by integrating this antenna for an on-vehicle television antenna diversity reception system, and in the case of using the antenna perpendicularly, the directivity and the sensitivity are obtained in many more directions. In any case, the antenna main body is in use without turning it, but if especially required, the antenna is used with turning.

FIG. 2 shows an example in which four modified Yagi antennas of FIG. 2 are horizontally arranged at different angles to constitute a vehicle-mounted TV antenna system. As an in-vehicle television antenna system, a diversity antenna system is widely used.
Conventional antennas often have a rod antenna-like antenna body, and have a low gain (poor sensitivity) in principle. Broadcasting also has many horizontal polarizations, but in practice, antennas are used almost vertically (called vertical polarization), and there are drawbacks such as inconsistent polarization planes (this also causes a decrease in sensitivity). It is good in the city area where relay stations and relay stations are nearby, but it is difficult to use in suburbs where it is not.

According to the modified Yagi antenna of the present invention, directivity can be obtained in a plurality of directions. Also, for each direction,
In principle, some gain can also be expected. Therefore, when this is incorporated into a diversity antenna system, effects are obtained in which the gain is higher, the polarization planes coincide with each other, and the sensitivity is higher than in the conventional antenna. Further, when the modified Yagi antenna of the present invention is used vertically, directivity can be obtained in more directions, and considerable gain can be expected in each direction. In any case, practical sensitivity can be obtained without rotating the antenna body. Especially when the antenna needs to be rotated, the sensitivity can be obtained in a required direction only by slightly rotating the antenna, so that the operation time can be reduced. Therefore, it is suitable for application to mobile objects such as automobiles and ships.
