Abstract
The invention combines a closed-end loop antenna and an open-end loop antenna in a conformal antenna on the rear window glass of an automotive vehicle above the defogging heater grid. The loops are adapted to receive Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) signals in both L band and Band-III frequency bands with maximum sensitivity to vertically polarized signals while requiring minimal space on the window glass. The antenna uses one substantially continuous trace between a pair of antenna feedpoints to achieve low manufacturing cost.
