Abstract
An antenna circuit is described which makes it possible to suppress intermodulation products. This antenna circuit includes an antenna connection device to which at least one first antenna can be connected, and the antenna connection device can be connected to an output of the antenna circuit over at least two signal paths. An antenna signal can be transmitted over each signal path. Transmission of a second antenna signal over a second signal path is attenuated by a predetermined attenuation value in comparison with a transmission of a first antenna signal over a first signal path. An analyzer unit is provided to determine the level of a weighting signal which is derived from an antenna signal transmitted to the output of the antenna circuit. An operating device is provided to connect only the first signal path to the output of the antenna circuit when the detected level is below a first predetermined level. The operating device connects only the second signal path to the output of the antenna circuit when the detected level is above the first predetermined level.
