  • Patent number: 11658400
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to an antenna-retaining device for a motor vehicle. The antenna-retaining device includes an antenna carrier plate for retaining a monopole antenna in an emitting position; and a motor-vehicle coupling device for fastening the antenna carrier plate to a vehicle body. The antenna carrier plate is electrically conductive and thus forms an electrical counterpoise to the monopole antenna. The antenna-retaining device includes an electrically conductive tab element as a counterpoise extension. The antenna carrier plate and the counterpoise extension are interconnected. When the monopole antenna is retained in the emitting position, the monopole antenna and the counterpoise extension are arranged on opposite sides of the antenna carrier plate, and a surface of the counterpoise extension and a planar emitting region or a longitudinal axis of the monopole antenna include an angle in the range of 90° to 180°.
