Claims
- 1. A glass window antenna for a motor vehicle comprising:
- a group of heater wires provided in a defogging area on the inside surface of a laminated window glass consisting of an inner glass and an outer glass;
- a first antenna conductor arranged out of said defogging area on the inside surface of said inner glass and assigned to a lower reception band;
- a second antenna conductor disposed on an intermediate layer between said inner glass and said outer glass of the laminated glass and extending to cross the heater wires and assigned to an upper reception band;
- a coupling member to cuple said first and second antenna conductors for constituting a single synthesized antenna; and
- a third antenna conductor disposed on said intermediate layer between said inner glass and said outer glass of said laminated glass and extended to cross the heater wires in a lateral side area different from an area where said synthesized antenna is arranged, said third antenna conductor comprising two independent antenna conductors consisting of a single long conductor and a single short line conductor, each conductor of said independent antenna conductors being connected to a different feed terminal, an output of said third antenna conductor being derived for diversity reception together with the output of said synthesized antenna.
- 2. A glass window antenna according to claim 1, wherein a feed terminal of said synthesized antenna and a third feed terminal for said third antenna are formed on the inside surface of said inner glass.
- 3. A glass window antenna according to claim 1, wherein said first antenna conductor comprises a single horizontal conductor extending from said feed temrinal and a horizontal conductor extending close along the heater wires to collect induced reception power from said heater wires.
- 4. A glass window antenna according to claim 1, wherein feed terminals of said third antenna conductor are located respectively on the inside surface of upper and lower portions of said inner glass,
- said long and short line conductors extending in opposite direction to each other to cross said heater wires and said line conductors being respectively connected to the correspondign feed terminals through connecting members.
- 5. A glass window antenna according to claim 1, further comprising a fourth antenna conductor employing said heater wires, reception outputs by said synthesized antenna, said third antenna conductor and said fourth antenna conductor being derived to a diversity reception system.
- 6. A glass window antenna according to claim 5, wherein said fourth antenna conductor comprises said heater wires and an auxiliary, horizontal antenna conductor formed on the inside surface of the inner glass and connected to said heater wires to extend from the side area of the laminated glass where said synthesized antenna is located.
- 7. A glass window antenna according to caim 1, wherein said first and second antenna conductors are assigned respectively to a lower band and an upper band of a TV broadcast band and said short and long line conductors are assigned respectively to a lower band and a upper band of the TV broadcast band.
- 8. A glass window antenna according to claim 7, further comprising an antenna conductor provided outside the defogging area on the inside surface of the inner glass of the laminated glass for reception of a radio broadcast wave.
