  • Publication number: 20230260333
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for operating a communication device of a motor vehicle. The communication device communicates with at least one other motor vehicle or at least one stationary receiver, wherein for this purpose, a wireless communication connection based on linearly polarized electromagnetic waves is used. In order to use the communication connection, a transmission signal is transmitted with a specified transmission power by the communication device, and the transmission power is reduced on the basis of the reception of a reception signal by means of the communication device, said reception signal using electromagnetic waves which are at least partly orthogonally polarized relative to the linearly polarized electromagnetic waves.

  • Patent number: 10699843
    Abstract: A motor vehicle with at least one energizable active current line, which at least sometimes carries an active current for the operation of at least one electrical consumer. At least one attenuation line layout is coupled by way of an inductive coupling to the energizable active current line in such a way that, in a protection area spaced apart from the active current line and the attenuation line layout, a magnetic field generated by the active current and/or a perturbation superimposed on the active current and/or a leakage current produced by the active current is attenuated by current flow induced in the attenuation line layout.

  • Patent number: 10700412
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a converter device which has a housing that can be installed into a motor vehicle. The converter device is designed to adapt an impedance of an external antenna which can be positioned outside of the housing to an impedance of at least one additional electric device via a conversion path such that a specified impedance is provided at an electric converter output. An antenna device which is independent of the conversion path is integrated into the housing of the converter device, said antenna device providing a Bluetooth and/or WLAN connection to a device, and at least one antenna device connection which is electrically connected to the antenna device is provided on the housing of the converter device as the electric output and/or electric input of the antenna device. The disclosure additionally relates to a motor vehicle comprising a converter device.
