Antenna, in particular mobile radio antenna
First Claim
1. An antenna, in particular a mobile radio antenna, for operation in at least two frequency bands, having the following features:
- the antenna is provided with a protective shroud composed of nonconductive material, the radiating elements of the antenna are arranged underneath the protective shroud and in front of the reflector (11), the radiating elements (4a, 13) for a lower frequency band are arranged at a first distance, or in a first distance range, in front of the reflector (11), the radiating elements (4b, 15) for the higher frequency band are, in contrast, arranged at a second distance, or in a second distance range, in front of the reflector (11), but closer to it, characterized by the following further features;
at least one dielectric body (21) which does not form the protective shroud is provided, more than 40% of the volume, and/or more than 40% of the weight, of the at least one dielectric body (21) is arranged in the region between the reflector (11) and the first distance or the first distance range of the radiating elements (4a, 13) for the lower frequency band, and more than 40% of the volume and/or more than 40% of the weight of the at least one dielectric body (21) is arranged, as seen from the reflector (11), at more than the second distance or the second distance range for the radiating elements (4b, 15) which are provided for the upper frequency band.

Abstract
An improved antenna, in particular a mobile radio antenna, is distinguished by the following features:
at least one additional dielectric body (21) is provided, and
the at least one dielectric body (21) is arranged such that it is entirely arranged underneath the radiating elements (4a, 13) or more than 40% of its volume and/or of its weight, and in particular more than 50% or 60% of its volume and/or of its weight, are/is arranged underneath the radiating elements (4a, 13), for the lower frequency band on the one hand and/or on the other hand, such that it is arranged entirely, or at least 40%, 50% or 60% of its volume and/or of its weight are/is arranged, viewed from the reflector (11), above the radiating elements (4b, 15) which are provided for an upper frequency band.
