<p>An RF antenna system is provided for mounting on a window of a vehicle comprising exterior and interior window mountable portions. The first and second portions include an RF coupling section (4) to inductively couple an RF signal received from antenna (20) and a power coupling section (6) for providing external power to an external amplification portion 52 for amplifying received RF signals. The system includes a further electrical connection (16) to a metallic shim (18) which is magnetically fixed to the roof of the vehicle and electrically connected thereto, whereby the roof provides a ground plane for the antenna, by capacitive coupling of the metallic shim to the vehicle roof.</p> |
