Vehicle antenna system.

摘要

A vehicle antenna system is provided for detecting broadcast waves received by the vehicle body and then transmitting detected signals to various onboard receivers. The vehicle antenna system includes a loop antenna (42) longitudinally disposed in close proximity to a marginal edge on the vehicle body to detect high frequency surface currents induced on the vehicle body by broadcast waves, the loop antenna being connected in series with a capacitor (44) to form a series resonance circuit for causing a resonation with frequencies belonging to an increased range of bands and particularly to FM or higher frequency bands to provide an improved sensitivity on reception.
