  • Patent number: 9331388
    Abstract: An electric emitter for vertically polarised wireless signals for a communication service with a narrow frequency bandwidth around a frequency fo with free-space wavelength ?o in the gigahertz range, comprising at least one substantially horizontally oriented conductor loop arranged above a conductive base area, with an emitter infeed point for electromagnetic excitation of the loop relative to the base area. The loop is formed by a circularly closed ring conductor running in a substantially horizontal plane with a height h of less than ?o/6 over the base area. Distributed over the periphery of the ring conductor are at least three vertical emitters electromagnetically coupled to the ring conductor coupling points and running to the base area, wherein at least two of the emitters are electromagnetically coupled to the base area at earth terminal points, and a vertical emitter is excited via the emitter infeed point at the lower end thereof.

  • Patent number: 9300047
    Abstract: An antenna for receiving circularly polarized satellite radio signals has a conductive base surface and at least one a conductor loop oriented horizontally above the base surface by a height h. The conductor loop is configured as a polygonal or circular closed ring line radiator. The ring line radiator forms a resonant structure that is electrically excited so that the current distribution of a running line wave in a single rotation direction occurs on the ring line, wherein the phase difference of which, over one revolution, amounts to essentially 2?. A vertical radiator extends between the conductive base surface and the circumference of the ring line radiator. The height h is smaller than ? of the free-space wavelength ?.
