Abstract
A non-invasive communication apparatus for a vehicle comprising glass includes a power transfer coupler configured to wirelessly supply vehicle-generated power, via the glass, to an external antenna assembly mounted to the vehicle. The power transfer coupler comprises a substantially transparent transmit coil disposed on an inside surface of the glass and a substantially transparent receive coil disposed on an outside surface of the glass adjacent the transmit coil. One or more information transfer couplers are configured to wirelessly communicate information signals to and/or from the antenna assembly via the glass. Each of the information transfer couplers comprises a substantially transparent first coupler disposed on the inside surface of the glass and a substantially transparent second coupler disposed on the outside surface of the glass adjacent the first coupler.
