Antenna system and method for manufacturing an antenna system

1. An antenna system, comprising:

a substrate having a first outer side on which a first antenna structure is mounted;

a radome, spaced apart from the substrate, on the first outer side of the substrate;

a carrier device, situated between the substrate and the radome, the carrier device including an electrical insulation material;

at least one second antenna structure mounted on the carrier device and being spaced apart from the substrate and the radome, wherein the carrier device encloses a cavity by being situated in part directly on the substrate, and in part spaced apart from the substrate, the carrier device including:

a wall section that extends perpendicularly to and directly contacts the substrate, and

a cover section that extends parallel to the substrate, the wall section and the cover section being made of the same electrical insulation material;

a transceiver disposed on a surface of the substrate and outside the cavity of the carrier device; and

at least one strip conductor disposed on and extending along the surface of the substrate, wherein:

the at least one strip conductor electrically connects the transceiver to the first antenna structure by extending from the transceiver, underneath the wall section, and to the first antenna structure.

2. The antenna system as recited in claim 1 , wherein the carrier device is made of the electrical insulation material.

3. The antenna system as recited in claim 1 , wherein the electrical insulation material is a thermosetting plastic.

4. The antenna system as recited in claim 1 , wherein the carrier device has a one-piece design.

5. The antenna system as recited in claim 1 , wherein the carrier device is situated in part directly on the radome, and in part spaced apart from the radome.

6. The antenna system as recited in claim 1 , wherein one of the at least one second antenna structures is situated at a first outer side of the carrier device facing the substrate.

7. The antenna system as recited in claim 1 , wherein one of the at least one second antenna structures is situated at a second outer side of the carrier device facing away from the substrate.

8. The antenna system as recited in claim 1 , wherein a third antenna structure is situated at an outer side of the radome facing the substrate.

9. A method for manufacturing an antenna system, comprising:

forming a first antenna structure on a substrate;

forming a radome that is spaced apart from the substrate;

forming a carrier device, situated between the substrate and the radome, which includes an electrical insulation material;

forming at least one second antenna structure, which is spaced apart from the substrate and the radome, on the carrier device, wherein the carrier device encloses a cavity by being situated in part directly on the substrate, and in part spaced apart from the substrate, the carrier device including:

a wall section that extends perpendicularly to and directly contacts the substrate, and

a cover section that extends parallel to the substrate, the wall section and the cover section being made of the same electrical insulation material;

disposing a transceiver on a surface of the substrate and outside the cavity of the carrier device;

disposing at least one strip conductor on the substrate in such a way that the at least one strip conductor extends along the surface of the substrate; and

electrically connecting the transceiver to the first antenna structure by causing the at least one strip conductor to extend from the transceiver, underneath the wall section, and to the first antenna structure.
