Definitions
- the invention relates to a keyless entry system for a Motor vehicle with a magnetic field sensor (antenna) according to the preamble of claim 1, with which the direction of incidence of a transmitter in Near-field emitted electromagnetic radiation can be detected.
- Keyless entry systems are e.g. known from DE 38 20 248 A1.
- This system exists from a portable radio transmitter, a manually operable arranged on the vehicle Trigger switch, a control device which is also connected to actuating devices, and a further antenna arranged in or on the vehicle which consists of a first Loop antenna with a substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle Magnetic field and a second loop antenna with substantially transverse to the longitudinal axis of the Vehicle magnetic field exists.
- the second loop antenna should be between an outer surface and an inner surface of the vehicle near the trigger switch
- the magnetic field sensor proposed in claim 1 consists of at least a first and at least one a second conductor loop.
- the first conductor loop is elongated (e.g. rectangular or ellipsoid with an aspect ratio that is significantly larger than 1).
- the second Conductor loop is arranged concentrically to the first and is also constructed symmetrically.
- the second conductor loop has a substantially constant center Distance (e.g. circular or square).
- the second conductor loop forms one
- the magnetic sensor is for evaluation with a Processing unit connected.
- the conductor loops are preferably one printed circuit executed essentially flat.
- the conductor loops are preferably dimensioned such that those in the second conductor loop induced voltage is approximately the same order of magnitude as the resulting voltage in the crossed loop.
- the first conductor loop has one middle section in which the conductor loop crosses.
- This conductor loop with about 8-shaped contour leads to a phase difference, so that the output voltage to zero becomes the same in the sections of the conductor loop adjacent to the intersection Voltage is induced.
- the crossing results in an addition with different Polarity performed.
- the first conductor loop has two substantially symmetrical sections larger area, which are also arranged symmetrically. So that accuracy the direction determination improved. So it doesn't depend so much on the shape of the individual Sections on (e.g. round, angular, ellipsoid) but on their symmetry to the crossing point.
- a third conductor loop is provided, which in Form and function of the first conductor loop corresponds, but in their plane perpendicular to this is arranged.
- the magnetic field sensor according to the invention is in a circuit Motor vehicle used, which has at least one processing and control device has, which also with actuators for actuating the door locks and / or other devices (e.g. ignition circuit).
- the magnetic field sensor according to the invention is shown in the attached schematic Illustrated.
- the magnetic field sensor 2 In motor vehicle 1, in particular in the area of the dashboard, is perpendicular to Vehicle longitudinal axis of the magnetic field sensor 2 consisting of first conductor loop 3 and second Conductor loop 4 arranged. In a central region of the first conductor loop 3 there are Crossed conductor tracks.
- the magnetic field sensor will preferably tuned to a wavelength that is a multiple of a practical distance to the portable transmitter. This ensures that within this distance Antenna is in the near field of the portable transmitter, which means that the intensity is the 3rd power drops and the difference in induced voltages increases.
- the magnetic field sensor 2 is provided with a processing and control device 5 to the actuating devices 6 for unlocking and locking the locks.
