In the embodiment of the present application, the working frequency of the first antenna 210 is controlled by the first tuning network 212 in the first antenna 210, and the working frequency of the second antenna 220 is controlled by the second tuning network 222 in the second antenna 220, so that the antennas can have good performance in different states of the electronic device.

[0040] In a possible implementation of the present application, the first feeding module 211 comprises a first feeding source 2111 and a first feeding matching circuit 2112, the first feeding source 2111 is connected to the first radiator 215 through the first feeding matching circuit 2112; the second feeding module 221 comprises a second feeding source 2211 and a second feeding matching circuit 2212, the second feeding source 2211 is connected to the second radiator 225 through the second feeding matching circuit 2212.

[0041] Wherein, the feeding source is used to provide a feeding signal for the antenna, and the feeding matching circuit is used for impedance matching.

[0042] In a possible implementation of the present application, the first tuning network 212 can include a first switch unit 2121 and a first matching circuit 2122, a first end of the first matching circuit 2122 is connected with the first feeding module 211, a second end of the first matching circuit 2122 is connected with a first end of the first switch unit 2121, and a second end of the first switch unit 2121 is grounded; wherein the first switch unit 2121 includes a plurality of first switches, the first matching circuit 2122 includes a plurality of first matching elements, and the plurality of first switches are connected with the plurality of first matching elements one by one.

[0043] That is, the first switch unit 2121 can be a multiple-input multiple-output switch, which can be composed of a plurality of single-pole single-throw switches or a single-pole multiple-throw switch, the number of the single-pole single-throw switches is the same as the number of the first matching elements in the first matching circuit 2122, and the number of switches that can be switched by the single-pole multiple-throw switch is the same as the number of the first matching elements in the first matching circuit 2122.

[0044] The embodiments of the present application can realize switching between the plurality of first matching elements through the plurality of single-pole single-throw switches to realize that the first antenna 210 covers different frequency bands, wherein the number of the single-pole single-throw switches can be selected according to actual needs and can be selected according to the frequency bands covered by the first antenna 210. The switching between the plurality of first matching elements can also be realized through a single-pole multiple-throw switch, and the number of switches that can be switched by the single-pole multiple-throw switch can be selected according to actual needs to realize that the first antenna 210 covers different frequency bands.

[0045] In a possible implementation of the present application, the second tuning network 222 can include a second switch unit 2221 and a second matching circuit 2222, a first end of the second matching circuit 2222 is arranged on the second radiator 225, a second end of the second matching circuit 2222 is connected with a first end of the second switch unit 2221, and a second end of the second switch unit 2221 is grounded; wherein the second switch unit 2221 includes a plurality of second switches, the second matching circuit 2222 includes a plurality of second matching elements, and the plurality of second switches are connected with the plurality of second matching elements one by one.

[0046] That is, the second switch unit 2221 can be a multiple-input multiple-output switch, which can be composed of a plurality of single-pole single-throw switches or a single-pole multiple-throw switch, the number of the single-pole single-throw switches is the same as the number of the second matching elements in the second matching circuit 2222, and the number of switches that can be switched by the single-pole multiple-throw switch is the same as the number of the second matching elements in the second matching circuit 2222.

[0047] In this embodiment, switching between multiple second matching elements can be achieved using multiple single-pole single-throw switches to enable the second antenna 220 to cover different frequency bands. The number of single-pole single-throw switches can be selected according to actual needs and the frequency bands covered by the second antenna 220. Alternatively, switching between multiple second matching elements can be achieved using a single-pole multi-throw switch. The number of single-pole multi-throw switches that can be switched can be selected according to actual needs to enable the second antenna 220 to cover different frequency bands.

[0048] In one possible embodiment of this application, the tuning unit 224 may include one of a capacitor, an inductor, a capacitor and an inductor connected in parallel, or a capacitor and an inductor connected in series.

[0049] In other words, the tuning unit 224 can be a capacitor, an inductor, a capacitor or inductor connected in parallel, or a capacitor or inductor connected in series, depending on the actual application. This application does not impose any limitations on this.

[0050] In this embodiment, the tuning unit 224 can be any of the devices described above, used to tune the frequency of the second antenna 220.

[0051] like Figures 2-3 As shown, in one possible embodiment of this application, the second antenna 220 includes a first sub-antenna DF and a second sub-antenna FI; wherein, when the first sub-antenna and the second sub-antenna operate in different phases, both the first sub-antenna and the second sub-antenna operate in a first mode, and the current directions formed by the first sub-antenna and the second sub-antenna are opposite; when the first sub-antenna and the second sub-antenna operate in the same phase, the current directions formed by the first sub-antenna and the second sub-antenna are the same, and the second antenna operates in a second mode.

[0052] It is worth noting that the arrows in the diagram indicate the direction of the current.

[0053] The second antenna can have three operating modes: the 1 / 2 wavelength mode corresponding to the entire second antenna, the 1 / 4 wavelength mode corresponding to the first sub-antenna, and the 1 / 4 wavelength mode corresponding to the second sub-antenna.

[0054] The second antenna 220 can be a T antenna. The second antenna 220 can excite three radiation modes. The antenna segments corresponding to the three radiation modes are the first sub-antenna, the second sub-antenna, and the second antenna, which correspond to the DF segment, FI segment, and ID segment in the figure, respectively. The DF segment corresponds to 1 / 4 wavelength, the FI segment corresponds to 1 / 4 wavelength, and the ID segment corresponds to 1 / 2 wavelength. The second antenna 220 can be switched to the low frequency band through the second switching unit 2221 in the second tuning network 222 at H to achieve low frequency coverage of 699MHz to 960MHz.

[0055] When the 1 / 2 wavelength mode resonance of the second antenna 220 is higher than the 1 / 4 wavelength mode resonance of the first antenna 210, the first sub antenna and the second sub antenna have strong current distribution and the current directions at the F point are opposite, corresponding to the floor current distribution, which is equivalent to the 1 / 4 wavelength mode of the two sub antennas being fused together, the radiation aperture is increased, the radiation efficiency of the second antenna 220 excited by the 1 / 4 wavelength mode resonance is improved, and the antenna body current distribution corresponding to the 1 / 2 wavelength mode excited by the second antenna 220 is completely connected and corresponds to the floor current, the floor radiation ability is weakened, and the antenna resonance radiation efficiency is reduced. This is also the method of using 1 / 2 wavelength mode resonance to improve the performance of 1 / 4 wavelength mode for the conventional T structure low frequency antenna, as shown in Figure 4 It can be seen from the figure that the performance of the 13 position is better than that of the 14 position.

[0056] Alternatively, the first antenna 210, the first sub antenna and the break 230 are located on the first side of the electronic device, and the first antenna 210 and the first sub antenna are located on the two sides of the break 230, and the second sub antenna is located on the second side of the electronic device, and the first side is perpendicular to the second side.

[0057] That is, the first antenna 210 and the second antenna 220 are distributed on the two adjacent sides of the electronic device as a whole, wherein the first sub antenna in the first antenna 210 and the second antenna 220 is located on the long side of the electronic device, and the second sub antenna of the second antenna 220 is located on the short side of the electronic device. Through the above arrangement, the antenna as a whole can be suitable for different modes to improve the antenna performance of the electronic device.

[0058] In one possible embodiment of the present application, the first antenna 210 can be an inverted F (IFA) antenna, and the low frequency current excited from the first feed source 2111 in the first feed module 211 flows out to form a 1 / 4 wavelength current distribution at the AC section of the first antenna 210, and then is switched to the low frequency band through the first switch unit 2121 in the first tuning network 212 at the B position to realize low frequency coverage of 699MHz-960MHz. When the first antenna 210 and the second antenna 220 are in the positions provided in the above embodiments in the electronic device, the first sub antenna of the second antenna 220 is equivalent to a parasitic radiation structure of the first antenna 210. When the first antenna 210 excites to form 1 / 4 wavelength resonance and the second antenna 220 also excites to form 1 / 4 wavelength resonance, the current distribution of the first antenna 210 body and the first sub antenna of the second antenna 220 at the break 230, i.e. at the D position, is opposite in direction, as shown in Figure 5As shown, the radiation patterns of the two antennas are in phase, and the radiation efficiency of the first antenna 210 decreases. When the first antenna 210 is excited to form a 1 / 4 wavelength resonance and the second antenna 220 is excited to form a 1 / 2 wavelength resonance, the current distribution of the first antenna 210 is in the same direction as the current distribution of the first sub-antenna of the second antenna 220 at the position of the break 230, i.e., D, as shown in FIG. 2B. Figure 6 As shown, the radiation patterns of the two antennas are in phase, and the radiation efficiency of the first antenna 210 increases. The arrow direction in the figure is the direction of the current.

[0059] Therefore, when the first antenna 210 and the second antenna 220 work simultaneously, the antenna efficiency of the first antenna 210 can be improved by tuning the second antenna 220 to form a 1 / 2 wavelength mode and the first antenna 210 to form a 1 / 4 wavelength mode at the same frequency, as shown in FIG. 2D. Figure 7 As shown, the radiation patterns of the two antennas are in phase, and the radiation efficiency of the first antenna 210 increases. The arrow direction in the figure is the direction of the current.

[0060] In a possible implementation of the present application, when the electronic device works in a handheld or head-hand mode, the strong antenna current is close to the human body, which can cause the antenna efficiency to be absorbed by the human body, resulting in a large loss (a large amount of tangential magnetic field at the strong current point of the antenna can enter the human body, causing the antenna radiation efficiency to decrease), and when the strong electric field point of the antenna is close to the human body, the human body as a near conductor medium can be coupled with the antenna body, causing the antenna to be biased to a low frequency. When the second antenna 220 is excited to form a 1 / 2 wavelength mode, the electric field at the position of the break 230, i.e., D, is strong, and the distribution of the first sub-antenna of the second antenna 220 at the position E is on the side, which can be held by the hand, which causes the 1 / 2 wavelength resonance mode excited by the second antenna 220 to be biased low, and the first antenna 210 is not easy to be held by the hand because the break is distributed on the upper part of the whole machine in the situation of answering the phone or operating the electronic device, and the resonance frequency bias of the first antenna 210 is not large, and the performance of the antenna decreases less in the handheld or head-hand mode.

[0061] Therefore, when the electronic device is in a handheld or head-hand state, the 1 / 2 wavelength resonance mode excited by the second antenna 220 is higher than the working frequency band of the first antenna 210, and the second antenna 220 can be biased to the working frequency band of the first antenna 210 to a low frequency in the hand-held scenario, which can improve the performance of the 1 / 4 wavelength mode excited by the first antenna 210 in the handheld or head-hand mode, as shown in FIG. 2D.Figure 8 As shown. ant1-System Rad.Efficiency_ant2 excitation 0.5λ resonant mode - handheld state, ant1-System Rad.Efficiency_ant2 excitation 0.25λ resonant mode - FS state, ant1-SystemTot.Efficiency_ant2 excitation 0.5λ resonant mode - handheld state, ant1-System Tot.Efficiency_ant2 excitation 0.25λ resonant mode - FS state, respectively refer to the curves of the first antenna 210 and the second antenna 220 when excitation forms different wavelength modes in the handheld state or FS state.

[0062] like Figure 9 As shown, in one possible embodiment of this application, the tuning unit 224 may include: a third switching unit 2241 and a third matching circuit 2242. The first end of the third matching circuit 2242 is disposed on the second radiator 225, and the second end of the third matching circuit 2242 is connected to the first end of the third switching unit 2241. The second end of the third switching unit 2241 is grounded. The third switching unit 2241 includes a plurality of third switches, and the third matching circuit 2242 includes a plurality of third matching elements. The plurality of third switches and the plurality of third matching elements are connected one-to-one.

[0063] Due to the narrow bandwidth of low frequencies, a switch is typically added to the first low-frequency antenna 210 to cut the frequency offset and cover the entire low-frequency band. To improve the handheld / headheld performance of the first antenna 210 across the entire low-frequency band from 699MHz to 960MHz, based on the above embodiment, a combination of a switch unit and a matching circuit is also used at the tuning unit 224 of the first sub-antenna of the second antenna 220. This allows the third switch unit 2241 to switch to different matching elements to tune the frequency offset of the second antenna 220 operating in 1 / 2 wavelength mode. This ensures that the 1 / 2 wavelength mode resonance excited by the second antenna 220 is higher than the 1 / 4 wavelength mode resonance of the first antenna 210 in each operating frequency band, and that it is lower than the operating frequency band of the first antenna 210 in the handheld state, thereby improving the handheld / headheld antenna performance of the first antenna 210 in different frequency bands.

[0064] Since the 1 / 2 wavelength mode resonance of the second antenna 220 is to tune to improve the 1 / 4 wavelength mode performance of the first antenna 210, there is a problem that when the 1 / 2 wavelength resonance frequency of the second antenna 220 is too close to the 1 / 4 wavelength resonance frequency at which the second antenna 220 works, the 1 / 2 wavelength mode resonance of the second antenna 220 is poor in radiation efficiency, and if it falls within the in-band of the working frequency range of the second antenna 220, it will affect the antenna performance of the FS state of the second antenna 220, so there will be a problem that when tuning the second antenna 220 to improve the head-hand performance of the first antenna 210, the performance of the FS state of the second antenna 220 will be sacrificed.

[0065] Therefore, the advanced open loop (AOL) function of the electronic device can be combined to make the first antenna 210 adopt different antenna logic in the FS state and the handheld / head-hand state, so as to realize the performance of the FS state of the first antenna 210 and the handheld / head-hand state of the second antenna 220.

[0066] Specifically, the electronic device can include a control unit for controlling the conduction or turn-off of the first switch in the first tuning network 212, the second switch in the second tuning network 222, and the third switch in the tuning unit 224.

[0067] The conduction or turn-off of the third switch is controlled by the control unit to control the simultaneous work of the first antenna 210 and the second antenna 220, in the first case, the working frequency of the second antenna 220 unit is greater than that of the first antenna 210, and in the second case, the working frequencies of the first antenna 210 and the second antenna 220 are the same.

[0068] In order to improve the head-hand performance of the low-frequency antenna first antenna 210 at the low-frequency frequency band, the embodiments of the present application take the first antenna 210 at B5 (850MHz) and B8 (900MHz) frequency bands as an example.

[0069] To improve the head hand performance of the low frequency antenna first antenna 210 working in the B5 frequency band, the 1 / 2 wavelength mode resonance of the second antenna 220 needs to be around 870MHz, which has an impact on the performance of B5 and B8 of the second antenna 220 in the FS state, so for the B5 handheld / head hand state working scene, the third switch unit 2241 adopts logic 1, that is, the third switch is switched to be connected with the first third matching element, at this time the second antenna 220 is excited to form a 1 / 2 wavelength mode, and the handheld / head hand performance of the first antenna 210 is good; for the B5 FS state working scene, the third switch unit 2241 adopts logic 2, that is, the third switch is switched to be connected with the second third matching element; for the B8 FS state working scene, the third switch unit 2241 adopts logic 3, that is, the third switch is switched to be connected with the third third matching element, so that the second antenna 220 can be excited to form a 1 / 4 wavelength mode in the B5 and B8 frequency bands, so that the B5 / B8 FS antenna performance of the second antenna 220 can also be optimal, and the handheld / head hand and FS antenna performance of other frequency bands can also be optimized by using different logics of the third switch unit 2241. Therefore, in combination with the third switch unit 2241 and the AOL function of the electronic device, different logics can be used for different scenes to realize the improvement of the handheld / head hand performance of the first antenna 210 and the consideration of the FS performance of the second antenna 220. As shown in Figure 10 the performance curves of the antenna of the second antenna 220 in different states. Figure 10 S2,2-B5 handheld_head hand state-switch logic 1, S2,2-B5 FS state-switch logic 2, S2,2-B5 FS state-switch logic 3, System Tot.Efficiency-B5 handheld_head hand state-switch logic 1, System Tot.Efficiency-B5 FS state-switch logic 2, System Tot.Efficiency-B5 FS state-switch logic 3, are respectively the wavelength curves formed by the first antenna 210 and the second antenna 220 in the handheld state or the FS state and different switch logics.

[0070] In the embodiment of the application, by increasing the switch tuning network on the lower low frequency antenna, that is, the first sub antenna of the second antenna 220, the position of the 1 / 2 wavelength mode resonance of the second antenna 220 can be tuned to improve the head hand performance of the first antenna 210 in different frequency bands, and in combination with the AOL tuning function supported by the electronic device, the FS of the second antenna 220 and the handheld / head hand performance of the first antenna 210 can be considered.
