  • Publication number: 20160300412
    Abstract: A communication system for a vehicle includes a vehicle and a portable communication device. The vehicle includes a low frequency antenna and an ultra high frequency (UHF) antenna. The portable communication device includes a low frequency antenna and a UHF antenna. Signals are transmitted from the vehicle to the portable communication device via the low frequency antenna. Signals are transmitted from the portable communication device to the vehicle via the UHF antenna. Periodic detecting signals, and challenge signals on detection, are broadcast by the vehicle, and received by the low frequency antenna of the portable communication device. Doors of the vehicle are unlocked and the engine of the vehicle may be started when the return signals from the UHF antenna of the portable communication device are authenticated by the vehicle.

  • Patent number: 7916093
    Abstract: A multiband antenna includes a conductive sheet, a feeding point, and a grounding point. The conductive sheet defines a first slot, a second slot, a third slot, a fourth slot, a fifth slot, a sixth slot, and a seventh slot thereon. The second slot and the third slot extend from a same short side of the first slot and are parallel to each other. The fourth slot, the fifth slot, the sixth slot, and the seventh slot extend perpendicularly from a short side of the third slot away from the first slot in sequence. The feeding point is formed on the conductive sheet at a long side of the first slot away from the third slot. The grounding point is formed on the conductive sheet at a margin of the slots different from the location of the feeding point.
