Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of glass product technology, and in particular to a glass antenna and vehicle. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of wireless communication, people have increasingly higher requirements for communication quality. Vehicles, as a daily means of transportation, place higher demands on antennas to achieve better transmission efficiency and signal quality. In related technologies, antennas are fabricated on ordinary dielectric substrates, such as the commonly used FR4 substrate. Several antennas are typically housed in a plastic box, which is then externally mounted in areas such as the vehicle's center console for external communication. However, this placement inside the vehicle means that external communication needs to overcome interference from the in-vehicle environment and glass loss, resulting in poor communication performance. Therefore, some manufacturers print antennas directly on the vehicle window glass to reduce interference from the in-vehicle environment and bring them closer to external communication facilities such as base stations, which is more conducive to communication. However, in actual production applications, to achieve concealment, antennas are generally printed in the black edge area of the window glass. This black edge area is usually close to the vehicle's sheet metal. When the antenna printing position is close to the sheet metal, it will be subject to interference from the sheet metal, leading to a decrease in antenna performance and limiting antenna placement. Summary of the Invention

Therefore, this application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0026] As described in the background section, in related technologies, when the antenna printing position is close to the vehicle body sheet metal, it will be subject to interference from the sheet metal, resulting in reduced antenna performance and limiting antenna layout. Therefore, this application provides a glass antenna for a vehicle that can reduce sheet metal interference, ensure antenna performance, and expand antenna layout space.
[0027] See Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 1 A structural diagram of a glass antenna according to an embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 2 It shows Figure 1 The diagram shown does not include the structure of the glass antenna with the feed interface 40.

The low-frequency radiating branch 21 has a low-frequency radiating edge 211, the mid-frequency radiating branch 22 has a mid-frequency radiating edge 221, and the high-frequency radiating branch 23 has a high-frequency radiating edge 231. The low-frequency radiation edge 211, the intermediate-frequency radiation edge 221 and the high-frequency radiation edge 231 are located on the edge contour of the radiating part 20. Each of the following is provided with an impedance matching edge: between the low-frequency radiation edge 211 and the intermediate-frequency radiation edge 221, between the intermediate-frequency radiation edge 221 and the high-frequency radiation edge 231 and between the high-frequency radiation edge 231 and the low-frequency radiation edge 211.

A radiating portion 20 and a grounding portion 30 are disposed on the side of the second glass plate 13 opposite to the first glass plate 11.
[0030] When the radiating part 20 and the grounding part 30 of the glass antenna are close to the sheet metal 50 on the glass carrier 10, the specific structural shape of the radiating part 20 is found through a large number of simulation data studies to be less affected by the interference of the sheet metal 50, thus effectively ensuring the performance of the antenna. In this way, the antenna can be arranged on the glass carrier 10 at a position far away from the vehicle body, or it can be arranged on the glass carrier 10 at a position closer to the vehicle body sheet metal 50, which can effectively expand the antenna layout space.

The first coupling segment 311 and the first IF radiating segment 2211 are spaced apart to form capacitive coupling, and the second coupling segment 312 and the second IF radiating segment 2212 are spaced apart to form capacitive coupling.

[0053] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment, a vehicle includes a glass antenna of any of the above embodiments, and also includes a vehicle body, wherein the glass antenna is disposed on the vehicle body.
[0054] In the aforementioned vehicle, when the radiating part 20 and the grounding part 30 are located close to the sheet metal 50 on the glass carrier 10, due to the specific structural shape of the radiating part 20, it has been found through a large amount of simulation data research that it is less affected by the sheet metal 50, thus effectively ensuring the performance of the antenna. In this way, the antenna can be placed on the glass carrier 10 at a position far away from the vehicle body, or it can be placed on the glass carrier 10 at a position closer to the sheet metal 50 of the vehicle body, which can effectively expand the antenna layout space.
[0055] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 4 A diagram showing the positional relationship between the glass antenna and the sheet metal 50 according to an embodiment of this application is provided. Figure 5 It shows Figure 4 Another perspective view of the structure shown. In one embodiment, a sheet metal 50 is provided on the vehicle body, and a radiating part 20 is spaced apart from the sheet metal 50. The distance between the radiating part 20 and the sheet metal 50 is set as S1, where S1 ≥ 10 mm. The sheet metal 50 forms a projection on the glass carrier 10 along a direction perpendicular to the surface of the glass carrier 10. The low-frequency radiating branch 21 is located outside the projection area. The minimum distance between the low-frequency radiating edge 211 of the low-frequency radiating branch 21 and the projection outline is set as S2, where S2 ≥ 20 mm. In this way, by reasonably limiting the distance between the sheet metal 50 and the antenna, the interference of the sheet metal 50 can be reduced, thereby effectively ensuring the performance of the antenna. Thus, the antenna can be placed on the glass carrier 10 at a position far away from the vehicle body, or it can be placed on the glass carrier 10 at a position closer to the sheet metal 50 of the vehicle body, which can effectively expand the antenna layout space.
[0056] Please see Figures 6 to 8 , Figure 6 The diagram shows the S11 curve of a glass antenna without sheet metal 50 according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 7 The diagram shows the S11 curve of a glass antenna with sheet metal 50 according to an embodiment of this application, where S1 is 10mm and S2 is 20mm. Figure 8The diagram shows a comparison of the efficiency of a glass antenna with and without sheet metal 50 according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 6 and Figure 7 As can be seen from the data, S11 in each frequency band is less than -8dB.
[0057] In addition, according to Figure 8 A table comparing the average efficiency of each frequency band with and without sheet metal reinforcement can be obtained:
[0058] 700-960 65 62 1710-2690 65 61 3300-4200 61 60 4400-5000 61 60
[0059] The table shows that the difference in average antenna efficiency between the antenna with and without sheet metal reinforcement is within 4% across the four frequency bands: 700MHz-960MHz, 1710MHz-2690MHz, 3300MHz-4200MHz, and 4400MHz-5000MHz, indicating a certain degree of resistance to sheet metal interference. Furthermore, the table shows that the average efficiency of the antenna across its operating frequency bands is >60%, demonstrating high radiation efficiency.

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise expressly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0063] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the use of descriptions such as "above" or "below" the second feature indicates that the first and second features are in direct contact or indirect contact via an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "above," "on top of," and "over" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. Similarly, "below," "below," and "under" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.
[0064] It should be noted that if an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "set on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element. If an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. If so, the terms "vertical," "horizontal," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this application are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.
[0065] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0066] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
