Abstract

A vehicle antenna pane for operating a toll payment system using short-range radio signals is presented. The vehicle antenna pane includes a pane, a first set of receiver/transmitter for communication with a toll station, and a second set of receiver/transmitter for communication with a mobile device inside of the vehicle. Communication between the pane and the toll station is according to a radio frequency spectrum suitable for a longer range communication, and communication between the pane and the mobile device is according to a radio frequency spectrum suitable for a shorter range communication. The vehicle antenna pane also includes a signal converter used for converting signals between the different radio frequency spectra.
