A Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) system uses a multi-antenna architecture on its transmitter to transmit signals in different frequency bands, and also uses a multi-antenna architecture on the receiver to receive signals in different frequency bands. However, the various signals transmitted or received by a multi-antenna architecture often interfere with each other, and the multi-antenna structure also occupies a large area. Therefore, how to expand the bandwidth and effectively improve antenna isolation within a limited area is a key issue facing MIMO antenna design. Summary of the Invention

Therefore, the definition of "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features.

[0061] The following embodiments of the present invention are described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.

[0062] Please also refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A preferred embodiment of the present invention provides an antenna structure 100 that can be installed in a wireless communication device (not shown) to transmit and receive radio waves to communicate and exchange wireless signals. The wireless communication device can be, but is not limited to, customer premises equipment (CPE), a router, and a set-top box.

[0063] The antenna structure 100 includes a dielectric substrate 10, a plurality of radiating elements 20, and a metal reflector 30. The antenna structure 100 can be attached to the housing of the wireless communication device using glue or other methods. The plurality of radiating elements 20 are disposed on the surface of the dielectric substrate 10, and the metal reflector 30 is spaced apart from the dielectric substrate 10.

[0064] The dielectric substrate 10 is in the form of a sheet, including a first surface 101 and a second surface 102. The dielectric substrate 10 can be a metal substrate, a ceramic substrate, or an organic substrate. In this embodiment, the dielectric substrate 10 is a generally square sheet. The dielectric substrate 10 is made of a fiberglass board (FR-4 board), which is a common organic substrate.

[0065] See also Figure 3In this embodiment, the number of the plurality of radiating units 20 is four, and the four radiating units 20 are respectively disposed at the four corners of the dielectric substrate 10. The two radiating units 20 located on the same diagonal direction of the dielectric substrate 10 are symmetrical with respect to the center point of the dielectric substrate 10.

[0066] In this embodiment, the four radiating elements 20 include a first radiating element 21, a second radiating element 22, a third radiating element 23, and a fourth radiating element 24. Thus, it can be understood that the antenna structure 100 is a multiple-input multiple-output antenna. The first radiating element 21 and the second radiating element 22 are respectively disposed at the upper right corner and lower right corner of the dielectric substrate 10, while the third radiating element 23 and the fourth radiating element 24 are respectively disposed at the lower left corner and upper left corner of the dielectric substrate 10. Thus, the first radiating element 21 and the third radiating element 23 are symmetrical about the center point of the dielectric substrate 10 in one diagonal direction of the dielectric substrate 10; the second radiating element 22 and the fourth radiating element 24 are symmetrical about the center point of the dielectric substrate 10 in another diagonal direction of the dielectric substrate 10. The first radiating element 21, the second radiating element 22, the third radiating element 23, and the fourth radiating element 24 have the same structure. The structure of each radiating element 20 will be described below, taking the first radiating element 21 as an example.

[0067] Please also refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The first radiation unit 21 includes a first radiator 211 and a second radiator 212. The first radiator 211 is disposed on the first surface 101 of the dielectric substrate 10, and the second radiator 212 is disposed on the second surface 102 of the dielectric substrate 10. The first radiator 211 and the second radiator 212 are symmetrical with respect to the dielectric substrate 10.

[0068] The first radiator 211 includes a first radiating portion 213, a feeding point 214, and a first isolation portion 215. The first isolation portion 215 is spaced apart from the first radiating portion 213 and surrounds the first radiating portion 213 to improve the isolation of the antenna structure 100. The feeding point 214 is electrically connected to the first radiating portion 213 to feed a signal to the first radiating portion 213.

[0069] In this embodiment, the first radiating portion 213 includes four resonant arms 216. Each resonant arm 216 includes a first resonator arm 217 and a second resonator arm 218. One end of the second resonator arm 218 is perpendicularly connected to one end of the first resonator arm 217. Thus, the resonant arm 216 is generally in an inverted L-shape. The other end of each second resonator arm 218, which is away from the first resonator arm 217, is interconnected, and each second resonator arm 218 is perpendicular to the other two adjacent second resonator arms 218. Furthermore, two of the second resonator arms 218 of the first radiating portion 213 are disposed in a diagonal direction of the dielectric substrate 10. Thus, the four second resonator arms 218 are interconnected, generally forming an X-shape. The end of each first resonator arm 217, which is away from the second resonator arm 218, faces the same side in either a counterclockwise or clockwise direction. In this way, any one of the four resonant arms 216 can be rotated 90 degrees clockwise or 90 degrees counterclockwise to obtain the adjacent resonant arm 216 , that is, the first radiating portion 213 is substantially in a swastika shape.

[0070] In one embodiment, the length H1 of the first resonator arm 217 is less than the length H2 of the second resonator arm 218, and the width L1 of the first resonator arm 217 is greater than the width L2 of the second resonator arm 218. For example, in one embodiment, the length of the first resonator arm 217 is 7.5 mm, and the width of the first resonator arm 217 is 3 mm. The length of the second resonator arm 218 is 10 mm, and the width of the second resonator arm 218 is 1.5 mm.

[0071] The feeding point 214 is located at the center of the first radiating portion 213, i.e., at the connection point of the four second resonator arms 218. The feeding point 214 can be electrically connected to a feeding source via a feeding line (not shown) to feed current into the first radiating element 21.

[0072] In one embodiment, there are four first isolating portions 215. Each first isolating portion 215 is a generally elliptical sheet, and the length H3 of the first isolating portion 215 is approximately equal to the length H1 of the first resonator arm 217. The four first isolating portions 215 are arranged around the periphery of the four resonator arms 216. Furthermore, the first isolating portions 215 are arranged on a side of the first resonator arm 217 away from the second resonator arm 218, and are spaced parallel to and spaced from the first resonator arm 217.

[0073] See also Figure 4The second radiator 212 is disposed on the second surface 102 of the dielectric substrate 10 at a position corresponding to the first radiator 211. The structure of the second radiator 212 is symmetrical to that of the first radiator 211 with respect to the dielectric substrate 10. Thus, the structure of the second radiator 212 is identical to that of the first radiator 211. The difference between the second radiator 212 and the first radiator 211 is that the second radiator 212 is provided with a grounding portion 27 corresponding to the feed point 214 of the first radiator 211. Therefore, it can be understood that the second radiator 212 is provided with a corresponding second radiating portion 25, a second isolating portion 26, and the grounding portion 27. The second isolating portion 26 is spaced apart from the second radiating portion 25 and surrounds the outer periphery of the second radiating portion 25 to improve the isolation of the antenna structure 100. The grounding portion 27 is generally a square plate. It is electrically connected to the second radiating portion 25. The grounding portion 27 can be electrically connected to a ground point on a circuit board (not shown) to provide grounding for the first radiating element 21.

[0074] It is understood that the first radiator 211 and the second radiator 212 are formed by coating the first surface 101 and the second surface 102 of the dielectric substrate 10 with metal material, respectively. For example, the first surface 101 and the second surface 102 of the dielectric substrate 10 are coated with copper, respectively, to form the first radiator 211 and the second radiator 212. The dielectric substrate 10 is also provided with vias (not shown) corresponding to the feed point 214 and the ground portion 27 to electrically connect the feed point 214 and the ground portion 27.

[0075] It can be understood that, as described above, the structures of the second radiating unit 22, the third radiating unit 23, and the fourth radiating unit 24 are the same as or similar to those of the first radiating unit 21, and can be obtained by corresponding translation, rotation, or symmetric mapping of the first radiating unit 21. That is, the second radiating unit 22, the third radiating unit 23, and the fourth radiating unit 24 are respectively provided with corresponding first radiators and second radiators, which are not further described here.

[0076] Please refer again Figure 1 and Figure 2 The metal reflector 30 is spaced apart and arranged parallel to the dielectric substrate 10. Specifically, the metal reflector 30 is spaced apart from the second surface 102 of the dielectric substrate 10. In this embodiment, the distance H4 between the metal reflector 30 and the dielectric substrate 10 is greater than or equal to 11 mm.

[0077] It is understood that the dielectric substrate 10 and the metal reflector 30 can be connected by a connector (not shown). For example, in one embodiment, the dielectric substrate 10 is provided with a through hole 11 (see FIG. Figure 3 One end of the connector is inserted into the through hole 11, and the other end is fixedly connected to the dielectric substrate 10. It can be understood that the material of the connector is an insulating material, such as a plastic material.

[0078] It can be understood that when current is fed into the feeding point 214 of each first radiator 211, the current flows through the first radiating portion 213, and then flows through the radiating portion of the second radiator 212 through the grounding portion 27, and is grounded through the grounding portion 27 to jointly excite a working mode to generate a radiation signal of the corresponding working frequency band.

[0079] In this embodiment, the operating modes include Wi-Fi 5G operating mode, Wi-Fi 6G operating mode, sub-6G operating mode, and 7.1-7.25 GHz operating mode. The operating frequency bands include 5.15-5.85 GHz, 6.1-6.8 GHz, and 7.1-7.25 GHz.

[0080] When the antenna structure 100 operates in the operating frequency band, the standing wave ratio is less than 2.5 dB, and the radiation efficiency can reach 80%, which has good radiation efficiency and can meet the antenna working design requirements.

[0081] See also Figures 5 to 8 , Figure 5 1 is a graph showing the S12 parameter (isolation) of the first radiation unit 21 and the other three radiation units in the antenna structure 100 of the present invention when operating at 5.15 GHz to 7.25 GHz; Figure 6 1 is a graph showing the S12 parameter (isolation) when the second radiating element 22 and the other three radiating elements in the antenna structure 100 of the present invention operate at 5.15 GHz to 7.25 GHz; Figure 7 1 is a graph showing the S12 parameter (isolation) of the third radiating element 23 and the other three radiating elements in the antenna structure 100 of the present invention when operating at 5.15 GHz to 7.25 GHz; Figure 8 The S12 parameter (isolation) curves of the fourth radiation unit 24 and the other three radiation units in the antenna structure 100 of the present invention when operating at 5.15 GHz to 7.25 GHz are shown. Figure 5 The curve S51 in FIG. 5 represents the S12 value between the first radiation unit 21 and the second radiation unit 22 when operating at 5.15 GHz to 7.25 GHz; Figure 5The curve S52 in FIG. 5 represents the S12 value between the first radiation element 21 and the third radiation element 23 when operating at 5.15 GHz to 7.25 GHz; Figure 5 The curve S53 in FIG represents the S12 value between the first radiation unit 21 and the fourth radiation unit 24 when operating at 5.15 GHz to 7.25 GHz. It can be understood that Figure 6 The curve S61 in FIG. 5 represents the S12 value between the second radiation unit 22 and the first radiation unit 21 when operating at 5.15 GHz to 7.25 GHz; Figure 7 The curve S71 in FIG. 1 represents the S12 value between the third radiation element 23 and the first radiation element 21 when operating at 5.15 GHz to 7.25 GHz; Figure 8 The curve S81 in FIG represents the S12 value between the fourth radiation unit 24 and the first radiation unit 21 when operating at 5.15 GHz to 7.25 GHz. By analogy, we can get Figures 6 to 8 The meanings of the other curves are not described here.

[0082] Depend on Figures 5 to 8 It can be seen that each radiation unit in the antenna structure 100 can operate in the above-mentioned 5.15-5.85 GHz, 6.1-6.8 GHz and 7.1-7.25 GHz frequency bands, and their isolation is below -20 dB, with high isolation performance.

[0083] Please also refer to Figures 9 to 16 , Figure 9 symmetrical radiation patterns when the resonant frequencies of the first radiation unit 21 in the antenna structure 100 of the present invention are 5 GHz, 6 GHz, and 7 GHz, respectively; Figure 10 symmetrical radiation patterns of the second radiation unit 22 in the antenna structure 100 of the present invention when the resonant frequencies are 5 GHz, 6 GHz, and 7 GHz respectively; Figure 11 symmetrical radiation patterns when the resonant frequencies of the third radiation unit 23 in the antenna structure 100 of the present invention are 5 GHz, 6 GHz, and 7 GHz, respectively; Figure 12 1 and 2 are symmetrical radiation patterns when the resonant frequencies of the fourth radiation unit 24 in the antenna structure 100 of the present invention are 5 GHz, 6 GHz, and 7 GHz, respectively. Figure 13 for Figure 1 The omnidirectional radiation patterns of the first radiation unit 21 in the antenna structure 100 are shown when the resonant frequencies are 5 GHz, 6 GHz and 7 GHz respectively; Figure 14 for Figure 1 The omnidirectional radiation patterns of the second radiation unit 22 in the antenna structure 100 are shown when the resonant frequencies are 5 GHz, 6 GHz and 7 GHz respectively; Figure 15 for Figure 1 The omnidirectional radiation patterns of the third radiation unit 23 in the antenna structure 100 are shown when the resonant frequencies are 5 GHz, 6 GHz and 7 GHz respectively; Figure 16 for Figure 1 The omnidirectional radiation patterns of the fourth radiation unit 24 in the antenna structure 100 are shown when the resonant frequencies are 5 GHz, 6 GHz and 7 GHz respectively.

[0084] Depend on Figures 9 to 16 It can be seen that when the resonant frequencies of the antenna structure 100 are 5 GHz, 6 GHz, and 7 GHz, respectively, each radiating unit in the antenna structure 100 is symmetrical and omnidirectional in the horizontal direction.

[0085] Clearly, the antenna structure 100 of the present invention, by providing a first radiator 211 and a second radiator 212 on a dielectric substrate, can effectively expand the bandwidth of the antenna structure 100 without increasing the area of ​​the antenna structure 100. The symmetry of the first radiator 211 and the second radiator 212 with respect to the dielectric substrate not only effectively expands the bandwidth of the antenna structure 100 but also ensures excellent omnidirectionality and symmetry. Furthermore, the first and second radiators 211, 212 are provided with corresponding first and second isolating portions 215, 26, effectively improving the isolation of the antenna structure 100.

[0086] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above preferred embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that modifications or equivalent replacements of the technical solutions of the present invention may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
