Rogers has a long experience in high frequency materials for light and heavy truck and automobile antennas and embedded systems. The HF materials enable high performance comfort, safety and entertainment functions like emergency call, navigation, Video & music streaming and satellite digital audio radio.
In the latest state of the art truck and automobile antenna technology so called Smart antenna´s the receiver (antenna) technology and signal processing (ECU with transceiver and tuner, and in some cases LNA’s) are combined in one package to improve reception quality due to reduced or eliminated cables. Rogers high frequency AD series PCB laminates enable Roof antenna´s to operate at 2.3GHz to receive Satellite radio even in very dense residential areas. The High frequency laminates are available in a range from Dk 2.5 up to Dk 10.0.
Concealed antennas are located in mirror, bumper, fender, rear tail-light locations its near invisible design eases installation without compromising styling.
Telematics control units connect vehicles with the outside world. This to enable high speed internet access and to access car manufacturers entertainment and service offerings. Real time traffic information, location based services and emergency call are examples of the latest in car digital living space.
The on-board units (OBU) in Innovative automatic toll collection systems are using the cellular network and global positioning system (GPS) to calculates the tolls. Roger RO4000 series materials are used in the OBU to establish a fast and reliable connection.
Rogers mid-Dk range AD Series laminates are extensively used in Telematics and Wireless applications such as; M2M (machine-to-machine), V2V (Vehicle-to-vehicle) and V2I (vehicle-to-infrastructure), DSRC (dedicated short range communications), and interoperable antennas for heavy and medium trucks and automobiles.
