Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of antennas, and in particular relates to a metal frame mobile phone antenna and a metal frame mobile phone. Background Art

[0002] Most modern mobile phone terminal antennas are built-in antennas. For mobile phones with metal frames, the common method in the industry is to make antennas made of FPC or LDS materials on antenna brackets, and then place them inside the mobile phone for signal radiation. However, the metal frame has the effect of shielding the signal. The metal frame will hinder the built-in antenna of the mobile phone from radiating outward, resulting in a sharp decline in the performance of the built-in antenna of the mobile phone. Therefore, in the existing design, a part of the metal middle frame is cut off to form a breakpoint to improve the signal reception capability and stability. However, too many breaks can easily lead to potential signal interference points, increase interference between signals, and affect communication quality. Therefore, how to achieve multiple antennas on a metal frame while minimizing the number of breakpoints has important design significance for the development of metal-framed mobile phones.
