Abstract: A radio-wave transmitting substrate includes a dielectric substrate, and, on at least one main surface of the dielectric substrate, a heat-ray reflection film including an electroconductive film, and an opening where the electroconductive film is absent in a plan view. At least a part of the at least one main surface in a plan view is a radio-wave transmitting region. The radio-wave transmitting region is a region where every 1-cm square unit region in the region satisfies the following expression (a): L>802.6×S−503.7. L is an overall length (unit: mm/cm2) of a boundary between the heat-ray reflection film and the opening in the unit region, and S is a proportion of an area occupied by the heat-ray reflection film in the unit region.

Abstract: An antenna includes an antenna conductor to be provided on an exterior side of a chassis and a flexible substrate. The flexible substrate includes a first insulating portion that is a portion of a sheet-shaped dielectric where the sheet-shaped dielectric is folded, a grounding conductor provided between the first insulating portion and the chassis, a second insulating portion that is a portion of the sheet-shaped dielectric where the sheet-shaped dielectric is not folded, and a signal line configured to feed power to the antenna conductor. A thickness of the first insulating portion is greater than a thickness of the second insulating portion.

Abstract: A plate for an electro-thermal window includes a heatable transparent conductive film, and bus bars that feed power to the transparent conductive film. The bus bars include a left bus bar connected to a left side edge and a right bus bar connected to a right side edge of the transparent conductive film. The transparent conductive film is divided into regions by a slit continuously or discontinuously formed from the left bus bar to the right bus bar. The regions include first and second regions. A distance between the left bus bar and the right bus bar of the first region is shorter than a distance between the left bus bar and the right bus bar of the second region. A width of the first region in a direction orthogonal to the slit is shorter than a width of the second region in the direction.
