A vehicle antenna device includes an antenna element, a circuit board, a coil, an amplifier circuit and a fixing portion. The antenna element functions as a capacitive antenna supporting a first frequency band. The circuit board has a power feeding portion that is connected to a power feeding line of the antenna element. The coil is electrically connected to the power feeding portion so that the antenna element has an antenna length supporting a second frequency band. The fixing portion and the antenna element are formed at an edge of the antenna element in order to fix the circuit board to the antenna element at a location close to the position of the coil and far from a position of the amplifier circuit. The fixing portion is provided with a predetermined gap from the coil that is large enough to avoid the influence of coupling with the coil.

The information display system includes an antenna, a display unit, a processing unit, and a housing. The antenna receives outside information from an outside of a vehicle. The display unit performs display to the outside of the vehicle. The processing unit is capable of executing outside-targeted display processing by which to cause the display unit to perform display associated with the outside information by controlling the display unit based on the outside information received by the antenna. The housing is installed on the vehicle after having the antenna, the display unit, and the processing unit assembled thereto and thus unitized. As a result, the information display system produces the effect of enabling beneficial information to be provided to the outside of the vehicle.

A method and system of creating microlocation zones by defining virtual boundaries using a system of one or more transmitters and receivers with one or more spatially-correlated antennas.

The radio-wave transparent cover includes a plastic transparent layer, a decorative layer provided on the rear-side surface of the transparent layer, and a plastic base layer provided on the rear-side surface of the decorative layer. The transparent layer has a peripheral part having a protrusion extending rearward. The protrusion defines a peripheral edge of the transparent layer. The protrusion has an inner circumferential surface forming a part of an engaging end projecting rearward from the protrusion. The decorative layer is provided in a region of the rear-side surface of the transparent layer adjoining the inner circumferential surface of the engaging end.

A tire monitoring system electronic unit suitable for being mounted either on the tire inflation valve or on the internal surface of the tire. The system includes electronics for managing the electronic unit including sensors for measuring parameters of the tire, a microprocessor and a supply battery, and an antenna configured to be mountable on the management electronics; a way of securing the antenna and the electronic managing device to each other; the management electronics thus forming a common base capable of being used with an antenna that can be adapted to the intended location of the electronic unit, either on the tire inflation valve or on the internal surface of the tire.

The disclosure relates particularly to a method for providing security for a transfer point for at least one receiving apparatus, performed by one or more apparatuses, the method comprising: receiving state information at least characteristic for the presence of at least one person and/or at least one object at the transfer point; checking whether the state information meets a security requirement; and outputting or causing outputting of an activation signal only if the state information meets the security requirement. Further, the disclosure relates to a vehicle for use as a transfer apparatus for at least one transfer point, to a transfer point and to a system and a computer program.
