ABSTRACT:
An antenna structure having a generally planar member (23) in which an antenna conductor member (11) is encapsulated within an electrically insulating material. A first layer (23a) is formed from a hard gel coating material. A second layer (23b) is formed from successive layers of resin, laminating fabric and resin and is placed in overlying engagement with the first layer (23a). A first conductor member (11) is positioned on and is slightly embedded within the second layer (23b). A third layer (23c), similar to the second layer (23b) is placed in overlying engagement upon the first conductor member (11). Additional conductor members may be incorporated by placing successive layers of conductor, resin and laminating fabric in overlying relationship. A coupler (18) provides for electrical connection of the antenna conductor member (11) to a receiver/transmitter within a motor vehicle. The planar member (23) may either form an integral part of the vehicle structure such as a cab cover, or may form an accessory such as an air current deflector shield for mounting to the outside surface of a motor craft.
