==VEHICLE ANTENNA ADAPTED FOR MOUNTING TO A WINDOW SUCH AS A WINDSHIELD - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240243461 titled 'VEHICLE ANTENNA ADAPTED FOR MOUNTING TO A WINDOW SUCH AS A WINDSHIELD

The patent application describes a low-profile, planar, wideband antenna assembly consisting of four subarrays, each with planar elements connected in a dipole configuration. The elements are placed on a non-conductive substrate, such as a printed circuit board, with a second set of subarrays operating as a GPS antenna on a second layer of the substrate. A beamforming circuit may be included depending on the configuration, and the assembly can be mounted on a vehicle's windshield or rear window.

* Planar, wideband antenna assembly with four subarrays
* Elements connected in a dipole configuration on a non-conductive substrate
* Second set of subarrays for GPS antenna functionality
* Beamforming circuit may be included
* Suitable for mounting on vehicle windows

Potential Applications:
- Vehicle communication systems
- GPS navigation systems
- Wireless communication devices

Problems Solved:
- Providing wideband antenna functionality in a low-profile design
- Integrating GPS antenna capabilities into the assembly

Benefits:
- Improved signal reception across a wide frequency range
- Space-saving design for vehicle applications
- Enhanced GPS accuracy and performance

Commercial Applications:
Title: Innovative Wideband Antenna Assembly for Vehicle Communication Systems
This technology can be utilized in automotive communication systems, GPS navigation devices, and other wireless communication applications. Its low-profile design and wideband capabilities make it ideal for use in vehicles where space is limited.

Questions about the technology:
1. How does the wideband antenna assembly improve signal reception in vehicles?
2. What are the advantages of integrating GPS antenna functionality into the assembly?


==Original Abstract Submitted==

a low profile, planar, wide band (e.g., 600 mhz to 5 ghz) antenna assembly consisting of four subarrays, each subarray consisting of a set of planar elements connected in a dipole. the elements may be disposed on a first layer or surface of a non-conductive substrate such as a printed circuit board. a second set of subarrays may also comprise planar elements disposed on a second layer of the substrate and operates as a gps antenna. the elements on the second layer overlap somewhat with the elements on the first layer to provide a partial ground plane for the elements on the first later. a beamforming circuit may be coupled to the sub-arrays, depending on configuration. the assembly may be placed on a windshield or rear window of a vehicle, such as a passenger car near the roof.
