Abstract

FIELD: illumination.SUBSTANCE: invention relates to luminaires with built-in data exchange devices. For this purpose, an aviation ground light (60) is proposed, comprising a light source located in a casing and a directional radio frequency antenna (19). The casing comprises a housing part (62) made of an electrically conductive material and having an outer surface (620). In the housing part there is a recess (67), in the recess there is an antenna. The antenna is a flat antenna having a plane located at an angle relative to the mounting plane (64), determined by the circumferential edge (623) of the housing part, at an angle of 5° up to 45°.EFFECT: increase in the quality of communication and the waterproofness of the light due to the reliable integration of the radio frequency antenna into the lamp housing.18 cl, 18 dwg
