Abstract
An antenna for a motor vehicle, comprising: a mounting base made of electrically conductive material and suitable for being connected to a mounting surface of the motor vehicle; a cover suitable for being connected to and delimit, together with the mounting base, a housing space; a plurality of radiating elements suitable for transceiving signals and being housed, at least partially, in the housing space. The plurality of radiating elements comprises a group of waveguides configured to transceive millimeter-wave signals.

An antenna for a motor vehicle, comprising at least:
- a mounting base made of electrically conductive material and suitable for being connected to a mounting surface of said motor vehicle;
- at least one cover suitable for being connected to and delimit, together with said mounting base, a housing space;
- a plurality of radiating elements suitable for transceiving signals and being housed, at least partially, in said housing space, said plurality of radiating elements comprises a group of waveguides configured to transceive millimeter-wave signals;
- at least one further element fixed to said mounting base;
- wherein each wavequide has a hollow tubular body formed, at least in part, by a corresponding cavity obtained in the mounting base and closed by said at least one further element.
