[0002] With the development and progress of mobile communication systems, the functions of watches are becoming more and more diversified, providing a lot of convenience for users. Many existing watches use GPS antennas to receive satellite signals and amplify them to the processing chip, which is an indispensable part of this function. The conductor material is used as the part to extend the wavelength and amplify the frequency point to meet the receiving needs.

[0003] The existing receiving antennas are generally the following:

[0004] LDS antenna: The conductor that is passivated after laser engraving is used as the antenna, and the rest of the plastic is still non-conductive and does not interfere with its signal. The disadvantages are that the process is complicated and the cost is high; the product has a strong plastic feel and no texture; because it is made of plastic, the entire body is not strong enough.

[0005] FPC and external antenna: A conductor suitable for the corresponding wavelength is attached to the inside of the plastic shell as an antenna. The disadvantages are that it is large in size and has requirements for the external dimensions, otherwise it is difficult to process; the product has a strong sense of plastic and lacks texture; the entire body is not strong enough because it is made of plastic; the frequency band required for GPS reception is basically ultra-low frequency, which requires ultra-long bandwidth, and the size of the wearable device is too small, so the performance of the external conductor is difficult to meet the actual requirements;

[0006] Ceramic antenna, advantages: performance can be achieved but dual-frequency requirements. Disadvantages: the shell cannot be made of metal, otherwise it will shield the reception of the ceramic antenna; high cost; Summary of the invention
