A fastening configuration for a roof antenna. A plug connection is located between the roof antenna and a control device in the center of the fastening configuration, and mechanical connection components are located around the plug connection.

Fastening system for a modular antenna

In an antenna arrangement, particularly for a motor vehicle window pane antenna, a first conductor structure is provided, which is formed by the heating field of a window pane and a second conductor structure, which is configured as an antenna conductor structure and which is situated galvanically separated from the heating field. At least one conductor of the heating field runs in the form of loops between the actual heating field and an outer edge of the pane. The second conductor structure extends comb-like into the loops of this at least one conductor of the heating field.

Antenna arrangement and method

A diagnostic method for monitoring at least one plug-in connection () to an antenna (), a diagnostic signal is supplied via the antenna signal path toward the antenna (). The diagnosis signal bypasses an active circuit () in the antenna signal path. In the event of a defective plug-in connection (), the diagnostic signal influences the power supply of the active circuit (). If the power consumption is outside a predefined window, an error is signaled.
