Abstract

A glass pane, in particular glass roof or rear window or side window or windshield, of a motor vehicle, with a pixel matrix arranged in the glass pane, in which pixel matrix at least one antenna structure is producible by means of a rheological material.

Claims (22)

1 . A glass pane comprising:

a matrix arranged in the glass pane, the pixel matrix comprising:

a plurality of interconnected cells,

a plurality of fluid channels interconnecting the plurality of interconnected cells, and a rheological material disposed in at least one cell among the plurality of interconnected cells configured to form an antenna.

2 . The glass pane as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the rheological material comprises magneto- and/or electrorheological.

3 . The glass pane- as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the matrix is disposed in at least one edge region of the glass pane.

4 . The glass pane as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the matrix is disposed in two mutually orthogonal edge regions of the glass pane, and

wherein the antenna comprises two antenna structures connected to each other.

5 . The glass pane as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the matrix is disposed in two opposite corners of the glass pane, and

wherein the antenna comprises a first antenna disposed in a first corner among the two opposite corners and a second antenna disposed in a second corner among the two opposite corners.

6 . The glass pane as claimed in claim 2 , further comprising a darkened edge region of the glass pane,

wherein the antenna is arranged in the darkened edge region of the glass pane.

7 . The glass pane as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the glass pane is formed of a glass or formed of a plastic.

8 . The glass pane as claimed in claim 2 , further comprising an interspace, wherein the matrix is formed within the interspace.

9 - 10 . (canceled)

11 . An antenna control system comprising:

a glass plane;

a matrix arranged in the glass pane, the pixel matrix comprising:

a plurality of interconnected cells,

a plurality of fluid channels interconnecting the plurality of interconnected cells, and

a rheological material disposed in at least one cell among the plurality of interconnected cells configured to form an antenna; and

an electronic control unit (ECU) configured to apply a voltage or a magnetic field to the glass plane, the voltage or the magnetic field configured to control the rheological material to be disposed in the at least one cell to form the antenna.
