Abstract

Radio-frequency transmission device comprising a transmission antenna ( 2 ) and a receiving antenna ( 4 ), characterised by comprising one or more passive resonant circuits ( 5 ) positioned between the transmission and receiving antennas ( 2, 4 ).

Claims (7)

1. A transmission device for performing an electromagnetic transmission between a first antenna and a second antenna separated by at least one conductive wall, wherein said transmission device comprises at least one passive resonant circuit including:

a first radiator element extending one side of said conductive wall so as to be in electromagnetic relation with said first antenna;

a second radiator element extending one opposite side of said conductive wall so as to be in electromagnetic relation with said second antenna;

at least one capacitive element for tuning a resonant frequency of said passive resonant circuit to a frequency of operation of said antennas; and

a conductor that traverses said conductive wall for electrically connecting said first radiator element, said second radiator element and said at least one capacitive element.

2. The transmission device of claim 1 , wherein said first antenna is connected to a sensor, and said second antenna is connected to processing means, said passive resonant circuit enabling an electromagnetic transmission through said conductive wall between said sensor and said processing means.

3. The transmission means of claim 1 , wherein said first antenna and said second antenna rotate with respect to one another.
