Abstract

The present disclosure provides a highly-integrated vehicle antenna configuration, which includes: a metal structure as a reference ground for a broadband antenna; a broadband antenna; a first electrical connection structure electrically connected to the metal structure and the broadband antenna; a first excitation signal source loaded between the metal structure and the broadband antenna, wherein by exciting some resonance modes of the metal structure and the broadband antenna, the broadband design is realized; and an antenna module located on the broadband antenna, wherein the broadband antenna is used as an antenna radiator and/or reference ground of the antenna module. Multiple broadband antennas are realized by using only the space occupied by one broadband antenna, and other antennas are built on the broadband antenna at the same time, which maintains a good isolation between all antennas while ensuring the performance of the broadband antenna.
