Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of antenna technology, and more specifically, to a common-aperture mobile phone frame antenna based on a millimeter-wave vibrator and a sub-6GHz loop antenna. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, the rapid development of fifth-generation mobile communication (5G) has led to the development of 5G communication, which includes both sub-6GHz and millimeter-wave frequency bands. The sub-6GHz band has a longer wavelength, making it suitable for long-distance communication; however, spectrum resources in the sub-6GHz band are scarce, and its transmission rate struggles to meet increasingly demanding requirements. The millimeter-wave band, on the other hand, has abundant spectrum resources and a high transmission rate, making it more suitable for high-speed, low-latency, and short-range communication. For 5G phones, supporting both sub-6GHz and millimeter-wave bands is the future trend. At the same time, the internal space of 5G phones is becoming increasingly limited, posing further challenges to antenna design. Therefore, designing a common-aperture antenna on the phone's frame has become both a research topic and a practical necessity. Summary of the Invention

The first feed point is connected to one end of the vibrating antenna through a microstrip line and feeds the vibrating antenna. The second feed point is located on the top of the loop antenna in parallel with the chip inductor. The second feed point feeds the loop antenna.

[0007] The vibrating antenna, fed by the first or second feed point, radiates electromagnetic waves outwards from the phone's frame via a loop antenna.

These embodiments will help those skilled in the art to further understand the present invention, but do not limit the invention in any way. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several changes and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention. These all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0038] This invention discloses a common-aperture mobile phone frame antenna based on a millimeter-wave vibrator and a sub-6GHz loop antenna. The common-aperture antenna design is placed on the mobile phone frame, saving more space in the phone. Furthermore, the antenna can achieve excellent performance such as high gain and adjustable frequency band by simply adjusting the length of the vibrator antenna and the loop antenna.

[0039] The common-aperture mobile phone frame antenna based on a millimeter-wave dipole and a sub-6GHz loop antenna provided by the present invention, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes a dipole antenna 1, a loop antenna 2, a first feed point 3a, a second feed point 3b, a microstrip line 4, and a chip inductor 5; as Figure 2-3As shown, a spatial rectangular coordinate system o-xyz is established. The midpoint of the bottom of the mobile phone frame is set as the origin O. The Y-axis is parallel to the length extension direction of the mobile phone frame, and the Z-axis is parallel to the width extension direction of the mobile phone frame. The vibrator antenna 1 is set on the inner side of the mobile phone frame and is located in the YOZ plane, with an angle θ between it and the Y-axis.

[0040] The loop antenna 2 is disposed on the outer side of the phone frame and located in the YOZ plane. The first feed point 3a is disposed in an external dielectric substrate located in the XOY plane. The first feed point 3a is connected to one end of the vibrator antenna 1 through a microstrip line 4 and feeds the vibrator antenna 1. The second feed point 3b is disposed on top of the loop antenna 2 in parallel with the chip inductor 5, and the second feed point 3b feeds the loop antenna 2. The vibrator antenna 1, fed by the first feed point 3a or the second feed point 3b, radiates electromagnetic waves to the outside of the phone frame through the loop antenna 2. This invention achieves a shared aperture design for a millimeter-wave vibrator antenna and a sub-6GHz loop antenna on the phone frame, which has practical value given the current scarcity of internal space in 5G phones.

[0041] Specifically, the included angle θ ranges from 45° to 90°. Multiple dipole antennas 1 are arranged parallel to each other along the Y-axis. The first feed point 3a and the microstrip line 4 are each corresponding to a dipole antenna 1. The spacing between adjacent dipole antennas 1 is 4.22 mm. The length of each dipole antenna 1 is 3.3 mm. The width of each dipole antenna 1 is 0.34 mm. The length of the loop antenna 2 extends parallel to the Y-axis, and its length is 50 mm. The width of the loop antenna 2 extends parallel to the Z-axis, and its width is 5 mm. The inductance value of the chip inductor 5 is 22 nH.

[0042] The working principle of this invention is as follows:

[0043] The dipole antenna 1 is fed through the first feed point 3a, and the dipole antenna 1 radiates millimeter-wave electromagnetic waves to the outside of the mobile phone frame through the loop antenna 2. The loop antenna 2 is fed through the second feed point 3b, and radiates sub-6GHz electromagnetic waves.

[0044] Tests showed that its gain and isolation performance were quite good, such as... Figure 4 The figure shows the S11 parameters of the loop antenna in the sub-6GHz band. Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the S12, S13, S14, and S15 parameters of the loop antenna in the sub-6GHz band.
