Method for detecting whether antenna rod and/or detection mechanism is installed on antenna in vehicle, involves determining installation of antenna rod and/or detection mechanism based on amplitude modulation band data and/or DC power data

摘要

The method involves monitoring amplitude modulation band data and/or DC power data of an antenna (14), and selectively determining whether an antenna rod (20) and/or a detection mechanism is installed on the antenna based on the amplitude modulation band data and/or DC power data. An amplitude modulation base station is determined based on the amplitude modulation band data, and signal strength of the amplitude modulation base station is determined. The detection mechanism is determined to be installed when the signal strength is greater than a threshold value.
