US Patent 10923795 Hidden multi-band window antenna

A slot antenna in a vehicle glazing established between the surface of the vehicle portal for the glazing and the peripheral edge of an IR reflective coating that has a bus bar over the coating edge. The antenna slot is fed directly by a voltage probe and/or a conductive line located in the slot and parallel to the bus bar. Multiple voltage probes and conductive lines can support respective antennas. A second conductive line is parallel and cooperates with the first conductive line to form a coupled coplanar line that links to the antenna slot. The longitudinal location of the links and the length of the coplanar lines are adjusted to excite multiple frequency modes. Multiple antennas can be used to broaden overall bandwidth or to add additional frequency modes.
