When the following description refers to the drawings, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present disclosure. Instead, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.

[0048] Unless otherwise defined, all technical terms used in the embodiments of the present disclosure have the same meanings as commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the art.

[0049] The wireless communication module mainly consists of three parts: antenna, RF front end, and main chip. It is used for the conversion between binary signals and radio electromagnetic wave signals during signal transmission and signal reception: converting binary signals into high-frequency radio electromagnetic wave signals during signal transmission; converting received electromagnetic wave signals into binary digital signals during signal reception. Among them, the filter is a key component in the RF front end.

[0050] The function of the antenna is to transmit and receive electromagnetic wave signals. The function of the filter is to select frequencies and filter out unwanted stray signals outside the band, thereby effectively improving the anti-interference ability of the entire mobile phone communication system. Therefore, improving the performance of both can improve the transmission efficiency and communication quality of the wireless communication module. In order to achieve better integration and miniaturization, the antenna and filter are designed into a module - the filter antenna, which has received widespread attention in the industry.

[0051] Circularly polarized antennas can receive electromagnetic waves of any polarization direction, which can reduce the energy loss of signals due to polarization mismatch, so circularly polarized antennas are widely used in mobile phone navigation. However, most of the current designs for filter antennas focus on antennas with linear polarization performance, while the design of filter antennas with circular polarization performance is more difficult, making it impossible to realize many advantages of circular polarization in filter antennas.

[0052] Therefore, the present disclosure provides a filtering antenna that achieves wide bandwidth, low profile, and circularly polarized radiation characteristics with good directivity, and can cover the operating frequency band of 26.10GHz-34.78GHz, so that the filtering antenna covers the 5G frequency band used by mobile phones and other electronic devices.

[0053] The technical solution provided by the present disclosure is applicable to electronic devices that adopt one or more of the following communication technologies: Bluetooth (Blue Tooth, BT) communication technology, Global Positioning System (Global Positioning System, GPS) communication technology, Wireless Fidelity (Wireless Fidelity, WiFi) communication technology, Global System For mobile communications (Global System For mobile Communications, GSM) communication technology, Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access, WCDMA) communication technology, Long Term Evolution (Long Term Evolution, LTE) communication technology, 5G communication technology and other future communication technologies.

[0054] The electronic device in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a smart bracelet, a smart watch, a smart helmet, smart glasses, etc. The electronic device may also be a cellular phone, a cordless phone, a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) phone, a Wireless Local Loop (WLL) station, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a handheld device with wireless communication function, a computing device or other processing device connected to a wireless modem, a vehicle-mounted device, an electronic device in a 5G network, or an electronic device in a future Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN), etc., and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to this.

[0055] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure more clear, the embodiments of the present disclosure will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0056] On the one hand, combined with Figure 1 , 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a filtering antenna, which includes: a first dielectric layer 1 , and a first conductor layer 2 and a feeding structure 3 respectively arranged on two sides of the first dielectric layer 1 .

[0057] The first conductor layer 2 is provided with a first slit 21 and a second slit 22 . The first slit 21 is located in the middle of the first conductor layer 2 , and the first slit 21 is an asymmetric structure.

[0058] The feeding structure 3 includes an excitation port 31 and a feeding line 32. The excitation port 31 is located at the first edge 11 of the first dielectric layer 1. One end of the feeding line 32 is electrically connected to the excitation port 31, and the other end of the feeding line 32 extends to the area corresponding to the first gap 21. The second gap 22 is located between the first gap 21 and the first edge 11.

[0059] The filtering antenna of this embodiment utilizes an asymmetric first slot 21 and a second slot 22 to achieve circularly polarized radiation characteristics with wide bandwidth, low profile, and good directivity, and can cover the operating frequency band of 26.10 GHz-34.78 GHz, so that the filtering antenna covers the 5G frequency band used by mobile phones and other electronic devices.

[0060] In addition, the filtering antenna disclosed in the present invention has a simple structure and solves the problem of complex structure of the filtering antenna based on processing, integration and packaging.

[0061] The first slot 21 and the second slot 22 in this embodiment can form a perturbation structure, and the perturbation structure can be used to enable the filter antenna to generate two electric field components with the same amplitude and a phase difference of 90°, thereby radiating circularly polarized electromagnetic waves. At the same time, the second slot 22 located between the first slot 21 and the excitation port 31 can introduce an additional resonance zero point to increase the impedance matching of the filter antenna of this embodiment.

[0062] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the first gap 21 is an asymmetric structure, which means that the first gap 21 is neither an axisymmetric structure nor a point-symmetric structure.

[0063] In some possible implementations, the material of the first conductor layer 2 is metal copper.

[0064] Optionally, the surface of the first dielectric layer 1 is taken as a reference plane and filled with metal copper, so that the surface of the first dielectric layer 1 is evenly and completely covered with the metal copper.

[0065] Alternatively, the first conductor layer 2 is formed by laminating a copper foil to the surface of the first dielectric layer 1 .

[0066] In some other possible implementations, the feeding structure 3 is printed on the surface of the first dielectric layer 1 by using a printing process.

[0067] In some other possible implementations, the first dielectric layer 1 mainly functions as an antenna radiation layer and a filtering functional layer, and can optionally use Rogers 5880 dielectric material with a dielectric constant of 2.2, a loss tangent of 0.0009, and a thickness of 0.508 mm. Thus, the material can be processed and produced and stably applied, the electromagnetic loss is small, the material cost is low, and it is conducive to controlling the cost of the filtering antenna.

[0068] Exemplarily, the first gap 21 of the present embodiment is formed by combining basic shape features and additional shape features so that it has asymmetric characteristics, wherein the basic shape features include but are not limited to rectangle, circle, ellipse, triangle, L-shape, T-shape, U-shape, E-shape, etc., and the additional shape features also include but are not limited to rectangle, circle, ellipse, triangle, L-shape, T-shape, U-shape, E-shape, etc.

[0069] As another example, the shape of the second gap 22 includes, but is not limited to, a rectangle, a circle, an ellipse, a triangle, an L shape, a T shape, a U shape, an E shape, and the like.

[0070] Combination Figure 1 , 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the first slit 21 is rectangular, and a first disturbance piece 211 and a second disturbance piece 212 are provided in the first slit 21 .

[0071] The first agitator 211 and the second agitator 212 are respectively arranged at two of the four opposite corners of the first slot 21 , and are respectively electrically connected to the first conductor layer 2 .

[0072] In this embodiment, the first slot 21 is designed to be rectangular, and cooperates with the first disturbance piece 211 and the second disturbance piece 212 arranged in two opposite corners of the first slot 21, so that the first slot 21 has an asymmetric feature, thereby achieving electromagnetic disturbance.

[0073] Compared with other shapes, the rectangular first slot 21 is simpler to design and process, which is conducive to reducing the design and processing difficulty of the filter antenna. After experimental verification, the rectangular first slot 21 has a higher central operating frequency and a higher bandwidth, as well as a better out-of-band suppression level.

[0074] In some possible implementations, each of the first agitator 211 and the second agitator 212 may be formed by a reserved portion of the first conductor layer 2 after material removal, or may be formed by assembling with an external material.

[0075] Combination Figure 1 , 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the first agitator 211 and the second agitator 212 are respectively rectangular and have different areas.

[0076] By using the rectangular first disturbance piece 211 and the second disturbance piece 212 with different areas, the first slot 21 can have an asymmetric characteristic, so that circularly polarized electromagnetic waves can be radiated outward with a larger bandwidth and a better out-of-band suppression level.

[0077] In some embodiments, the area of ​​the first slot 21 is S0, the area of ​​the first disturbance piece 211 is S1, the area of ​​the second disturbance piece 212 is S2, and the area of ​​the second slot 22 is S3; wherein, the quality factor Q of the filtering antenna is inversely proportional to the sum of the areas S1+S2+S3 of the first disturbance piece 211, the second disturbance piece 212, and the second slot 22; the quality factor Q of the filtering antenna is directly proportional to the area S0 of the first slot 21.

[0078] Exemplarily, this embodiment satisfies:

[0079]

[0080] In the above formula, Q is the quality factor of the filter antenna, which is a parameter for measuring the loss of the resonant circuit, and δ is a correction factor, where the value range of δ is 1.8-2.2.

[0081] When the first slot 21 and the second slot 22 satisfy the above formula, it can be ensured that the electric field components generated by the first agitator 211 and the second agitator 212 have the same amplitude and a 90-degree phase difference, so that the first slot 21 can radiate circularly polarized electromagnetic waves outward.

[0082] Combination Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the size of the first gap 21 along the first direction a is L1, and the size of the first gap 21 along the second direction b is L2; ​​the size of the first disturbance piece 211 along the first direction a is L3, and the size of the first disturbance piece 211 along the second direction b is L4; the size of the second disturbance piece 212 along the first direction a is L5, and the size of the second disturbance piece 212 along the second direction b is L6.

[0111] Combination Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the filtering antenna further includes a periodic structure layer 4 and a second dielectric layer 5 , the second dielectric layer 5 is located on the side of the feeding structure 3 away from the first dielectric layer 1 , and the periodic structure layer 4 is located on the side of the second dielectric layer 5 away from the feeding structure 3 .

[0112] Among them, the second dielectric layer 5 is used to isolate the structures on both sides to avoid mutual interference between the structures on both sides. The periodic structure layer 4 can construct an electromagnetic band gap (EBG) structure at the bottom of the filter antenna to form a perfect magnetic conductor layer (PMC), which can effectively suppress plane waves, reduce spatial radiation losses, and solve the problem of spatial resonance. Since the electromagnetic band gap can "tune out" a specific frequency, it can suppress unnecessary electromagnetic interference (EMI) and improve electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).

[0113] In some possible implementations, the second dielectric layer 5 is made of Rogers 5880 dielectric material with a dielectric constant of 2.2, a loss tangent of 0.0009, and a thickness of 0.254 mm. Its main function is to separate the bottom layer and the top layer so that they do not interfere with each other.

[0114] Combination Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the periodic structure layer 4 includes a patch array layer 41, a third dielectric layer 42 and a second conductor layer 43 which are stacked.

[0115] The patch array layer 41 is located on the side of the third dielectric layer 42 facing the second dielectric layer 5, and the second conductor layer 43 is located on the side of the third dielectric layer 42 facing away from the second dielectric layer 5; each patch unit in the patch array layer 41 penetrates the third dielectric layer 42 along the stacking direction through a metal via 44 to be electrically connected to the second conductor layer 43.

[0116] The patch array layer 41 is composed of multiple patch units distributed in a periodic array, and each patch unit is electrically connected to the second conductor layer 43 through a metal via 44, thereby forming an electromagnetic bandgap array structure, which can serve as a virtual ground plane of the filtering antenna, reflect the radiation energy outward, and effectively curb the formation of surface waves, reduce the loss of radiation energy, and improve the radiation efficiency of the radiator.

[0117] In some possible implementations, the planar shape of the patch unit includes but is not limited to a circle, a rectangle, a positive direction, a triangle, an ellipse, and the like.

[0118] Exemplarily, the planar shape of the patch unit is circular, and the diameter W of the patch unit has a value range of 0.7 mm-2.7 mm. Specifically, the diameter W of the patch unit has a value of, for example, 0.7 mm, 0.9 mm, 1 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.5 mm, 1.7 mm, 1.9 mm, 2 mm, 2.7 mm, etc. Further, the diameter W of the patch unit is 1.7 mm.

[0119] In some other possible implementations, the center spacing P between adjacent patch units ranges from 1.2 mm to 3.2 mm. Specifically, the center spacing P between adjacent patch units is, for example, 1.2 mm, 1.5 mm, 1.7 mm, 1.9 mm, 2 mm, 2.2 mm, 2.5 mm, 2.7 mm, 3 mm, 3.2 mm, etc. Further, the center spacing P between adjacent patch units is 2.2 mm.

[0120] In some other possible implementations, the radius r of the metallized hole ranges from 0.25 mm to 0.45 mm. Specifically, the radius r of the metallized hole ranges from 0.25 mm to 0.45 mm. Specifically, the radius r of the metallized hole ranges from 0.25 mm to 0.3 mm, 0.35 mm, 0.4 mm, 0.45 mm, etc. Furthermore, the radius r of the metallized hole is 0.35 mm.

[0121] In other embodiments, the third dielectric layer 42 is made of Rogers 5880 dielectric material with a dielectric constant of 2.2, a loss tangent of 0.0009, and a thickness of 0.787 mm, and its main function is to provide a high impedance surface to prohibit surface wave propagation.

[0122] The overall size of the filtering antenna provided by the present invention is 15mm*12mm*1.549mm. Compared with the traditional filtering antenna, it has a simpler structure and smaller size, and is more suitable for the miniaturization and miniaturization scenarios of electronic devices.

[0123] Combination Figure 4 As shown, the return loss, axial ratio and gain diagrams of the filtering antenna provided by the present invention have a central operating frequency of 30.4 GHz, a -10 dB impedance bandwidth of 26.10 GHz-34.78 GHz (relative bandwidth of 28.6%), a 3 dB axial ratio bandwidth of 27.94 GHz-30.97 GHz (relative axial ratio bandwidth of 10%), and a gain of approximately 6.36 dBi at 31 GHz.

[0124] The above shows that the filtering antenna provided by the present invention performs well in terms of bandwidth, axial ratio, and gain, is superior to the relevant technical level, and can be applied to 5G millimeter wave wireless communication systems.
