  • Patent number: 10903555
    Abstract: Antenna system adapted for integration in side mirrors of a vehicle. The antenna system includes two radiating conductors and a reflector coplanarly disposed on a same dielectric substrate of a printed circuit board. The radiating conductors are connected to the reflector through transmission lines electromagnetically coupled to a frequency band of operation. In order to optimize the radiating of the antenna system in a 180° sector that covers one lateral of the vehicle, the reflector is separated from the two radiating conductors by a distance included between 0.3 times and one time the central wavelength; and the reflector is less than 6 times wider than the radiating conductors.
