Abstract: An antenna arrangement for the mobile communication of a rail vehicle and a rail vehicle with an antenna arrangement of the type. The antenna arrangement has at least two transmitting antennas and at least two receiving antennas. The transmitting antennas are spatially grouped in a transmitting group and the receiving antennas are spatially grouped in a receiving group. The distances between the transmitting antennas and between the receiving antennas is smaller than the overall distance between the transmitting group and the receiving group. The antennas can thereby be arranged in a much more space-saving fashion on the vehicles because large distances have to be provided only between the groups, not between the antennas within the groups. Where the space needed is low, interference-free operation of the antennas is thus advantageously possible.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for driving an operating arrangement (2) for a motor vehicle (1), in which, by means of an operating element (4, 4?) which is arranged on a steering wheel (5) of the motor vehicle (1) and which has a touch-sensitive screen, a touch of at least one finger (9) on the operating element (4, 4?) is registered as an operating action and, by means of a control device (3), a unit (8) is activated on the basis of the operating action registered, in a first operating mode of the operating element (4, 4?), a pointer (11) displayed on a display device (10) of the unit (8) being controlled by means of the control device (3) and, in a second operating mode of the operating element (4, 4?) at least one switching area (15) being displayed on the operating element (4, 4?), and the touch on the switching area (15) being registered as the operating action.

Abstract: The invention relates to a touch-sensitive operating device (1) for a motor vehicle, having an actuation lever (2), in particular a steering column stalk, which has an elongate configuration, having a sensor arrangement comprising at least one touch-sensitive and/or proximity-sensitive sensor element (4) which is arranged on the actuation lever (2), and having an electronic evaluation device which is coupled to the at least one sensor element (4) and is configured to detect the at least one sensor element (4) being touched and/or the at least one sensor element (4) being approached. The evaluation device is configured to identify an operating gesture of an operator on the actuation lever on the basis of a combination of at least two detected touches on the sensor arrangement and/or approaches towards the sensor arrangement, and to trigger a predetermined operating function on the basis of the identified operating gesture.
