DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0080] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0081] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application pertains. The terms used herein in the specification of this application are for the purpose of describing specific embodiments only and are not intended to limit this application.

[0082] It should be understood that the terms "first," "second," and so forth, used herein may be used to describe various elements, but these elements are not limited by these terms. These terms are used solely to distinguish a first element from another element. For example, a first antenna may be referred to as a second antenna, and similarly, a second antenna may be referred to as a first antenna, without departing from the scope of this application. The first antenna and the second antenna are both antennas, but they are not the same antenna.

[0083] When used herein, the singular forms "a", "an", and "the" may also include the plural forms, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It should also be understood that the terms "include / comprise" or "have" and the like specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, components, parts, or combinations thereof, but do not preclude the possibility of the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, components, parts, or combinations thereof.

[0084] With the widespread application of 5G communication technology in smart terminal devices, the market demand for metal-appearance tablet devices with 5G communication functions continues to grow due to their comprehensive advantages such as high structural strength, excellent heat dissipation performance, and strong portability.

[0085] In traditional technology, the nano-injection molding process is commonly used to implement a fractured metal structure antenna solution. This technology forms a radiator by opening more than 8 physical fracture areas on the metal back shell, and uses nano-injection molding materials to fill the fractures to achieve electrical insulation of the antenna functional area.

[0086] However, the 5G antenna solution with an eight-slit metal structure is highly destructive to the appearance of the device. The all-metal structure uses a nano-injection molding process, and the metal shell is expensive. How to reduce the number of fractures, improve the appearance, reduce costs, and at the same time meet excellent 5G communication functions and regulatory performance has been a long-standing technical pain point in the field of antenna technology.

[0087] Based on this, in order to solve the above problems, the present application provides an antenna module and a communication device. By setting four physical gaps, the cost of gap injection molding can be reduced compared to the antenna design with 6 or more gaps, thereby effectively reducing the cost of the antenna module. At the same time, reducing the gaps in the device frame can also improve the overall structural strength of the communication device to avoid the risk of deformation caused by multiple gaps.

[0088] In an exemplary embodiment, Figure 1 A schematic structural diagram of an antenna module provided in an embodiment of the present application; Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the structure of another antenna module provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an antenna module is applied to a communication device including multiple antennas for 5G communication, and the antenna module includes:

[0089] The device cover 12 includes a device frame SS10; the device frame SS10 is provided with four gaps.

[0090] The communication device may be a tablet device. The device cover 12 may refer to the housing structure of the smart tablet device, typically made of metal or composite materials, and may provide mechanical support, electromagnetic shielding, and antenna radiation functions. For example, the device cover 12 is a metal cover.

[0091] The device frame SS10 may refer to the edge area of the device cover 12, which is usually a metal frame surrounding the screen. It can serve as a structural member to enhance the rigidity of the device and as an antenna radiator to realize signal transmission and reception.

[0092] The gap may be a physical break formed on the metal frame by laser cutting or stamping, and is used to separate the metal frame to form an independent antenna radiator.

[0093] The first slit D31 and the second slit D21 are arranged on the same long frame, and the first slit D31 and the second slit D21 are symmetrically arranged around the middle point of the long frame.

[0094] The third slit D41 and the fourth slit D11 are respectively disposed on the first short frame and the second short frame that are opposite to each other, and are both disposed close to the same long frame.

[0095] Exemplarily, the first slot D31 and the second slot D21 can be arranged on the same long frame (the long side of the communication device), for example, they can both be arranged on the first long frame and be distributed in a mirror-symmetrical manner with the geometric center point of the long frame as the axis of symmetry. In this way, the complementarity of the antenna radiation pattern can be achieved through a symmetrical layout, thereby enhancing the uniformity of signal coverage in the long side direction. The third slot D41 and the fourth slot D11 can be arranged on two opposite short frames of the device (the short sides of the communication device), respectively, and both are close to the same long frame, for example, both are close to the top or bottom long side of the device. The third slot D41 and the fourth slot D11 can be symmetrically arranged, for example, the distance between the third slot D41 and the same long side and the distance between the fourth slot D11 and the same long side can be the same.

[0096] The first antenna D311 is disposed at an end of the first slot D31 away from the first short frame.

[0097] Exemplarily, the first antenna D311 can be located between the first slot D31 and the second slot D21, with the first slot D31 as the boundary, and the metal frame segment away from the first short frame side can be used as the radiator of the first antenna D311.

[0098] The second antenna D312 is disposed at one end of the first slot D31 close to the first short frame.

[0099] Exemplarily, the second antenna D312 may be disposed near a corner of the first short frame. The second antenna D312 shares the first slot D31 with the first antenna D311 but utilizes the metal segment near the first short frame as a radiator.

[0100] The third antenna D412 is disposed at one end of the third slot D41 close to the first long frame; the third antenna D412 and the second antenna D312 share the same frame segment.

[0101] For example, the third antenna D412 can be located at the junction of the short frame and the first long frame. The third antenna D412 and the second antenna D312 can share the same metal frame segment, that is, the same radiator. For example, the portion of the first long frame near the first short frame and the portion of the first short frame near the first long frame, that is, the angle segment between the first long frame and the first short frame, can serve as the shared radiator for the third antenna D412 and the second antenna D312. The angle segment can be a straight angle, a rounded angle, an arc angle, etc.

[0102] The fourth antenna D213 is disposed at an end of the second slot D21 away from the second short frame; the fourth antenna D213 and the first antenna D311 share the same frame segment.

[0103] Exemplarily, the fourth antenna D213 is located near the middle extension direction of the first long frame and can be located between the first slot D31 and the second slot D21. The fourth antenna D213 can share the same metal segment with the first antenna D311 as a radiator.

[0104] The fifth antenna D212 is disposed at one end of the second slot D21 close to the second short frame.

[0105] Exemplarily, the fifth antenna D212 can be set close to the corner of the second short frame, and the second antenna D312 and the fourth antenna D213 share the second slot D21, but use the metal segment close to the second short frame as the radiator.

[0106] The sixth antenna D112 is disposed at one end of the fourth slot D11 close to the first long frame; the sixth antenna D112 and the fifth antenna D212 share the same frame segment.

[0107] Exemplarily, the sixth antenna D112 is located at the junction of the second short frame and the first long frame. The sixth antenna D112 and the fifth antenna D212 share the same metal segment, that is, the same radiator. For example, the portion of the first long frame near the second short frame and the portion of the second short frame near the first long frame, that is, the angled section between the first long frame and the second short frame, can serve as the shared radiator for the sixth antenna D112 and the fifth antenna D212. The angled section can be a straight angle, a rounded angle, an arc angle, etc.

[0108] The seventh antenna 14 is disposed at a first preset position on a side of the device cover 12 away from the circuit board of the communication device.

[0109] The eighth antenna 19 is disposed at a second preset position inside the device cover 12 away from the circuit board.

[0110] Exemplarily, the seventh antenna 14 and the eighth antenna 19 can be arranged on one side of the outer surface of the device cover 12, such as the outside of the metal back shell or the frame, opposite to the plane where the internal circuit main board is located.

[0111] The seventh antenna 14 can be located in the first predetermined characteristic area, for example, in the rear camera area of the device cover 12 to improve the utilization of the device cover 12's controls. The seventh antenna 14 can adopt a PIFA antenna design using traditional FPC technology and be mounted on a decorative plastic bracket in the rear camera area. The eighth antenna 19 can be located in the second predetermined characteristic area, which can be located at the edge of the device cover 12, or near the first antenna D311 through the sixth antenna D112.

[0112] In practical applications, the structure of the above-mentioned antenna module can effectively reduce the number of border gaps, and can meet the performance index requirements, positioning requirements, Bluetooth communication requirements, etc. of 5G NR 4×4 MIMO. It can also meet the performance index requirements of 4G, thereby meeting the high-speed communication requirements while reducing the cost of the antenna module of the communication equipment.

[0113] In this embodiment, four slots are provided in the device frame SS10, and six antennas are configured as frame antennas. The design between the four slots allows three groups of antennas to share the same frame segment. This reduces the number of frame slots while effectively achieving functional reuse through frequency band isolation. The symmetrical design of the four slots also has an aesthetically pleasing effect. Furthermore, two antennas are arranged in a three-dimensional layout inside the cover and away from the circuit board, further reducing the number of slots and improving the space utilization of the communication device. This application also utilizes four slots to arrange eight antennas, ensuring 5G multi-antenna functionality and supporting multi-band and MIMO (multiple input and output) technical requirements. Thus, the provision of four physical slots reduces the cost of slot injection molding compared to antenna designs with six or eight slots or more, thereby effectively reducing the cost of the antenna module. Furthermore, reducing the number of slots in the device frame SS10 also improves the overall structural strength of the communication device, avoiding the risk of deformation caused by multiple slots.

[0114] In an exemplary embodiment, the first antenna D311 is a main antenna, and the resonant frequency of the first antenna D311 covers the full frequency band of the 4G cellular antenna; the fourth antenna D213 is a diversity antenna, and the resonant frequency of the fourth antenna D213 covers the full frequency band of the 4G cellular antenna.

[0115] Among them, the main antenna refers to the antenna unit that undertakes the main signal receiving and transmitting functions of the communication equipment. It can be directly associated with the RF front-end power amplifier (PA) and low-noise amplifier (LNA). Its performance can directly affect the throughput and stability of the communication link.

[0116] A diversity antenna may refer to an antenna unit used to receive diversity signals. It may improve the signal reception quality through spatial diversity, polarization diversity, or frequency diversity technology, and usually does not participate in the transmission function.

[0117] Exemplarily, the first antenna D311 is the main antenna, and the antenna resonant frequency of the first antenna D311 covers the full frequency band of the 4G cellular main antenna, such as, the low frequency can cover 600MHz~960MHz, the medium frequency can cover 1710MHz~2170MHz, and the high frequency can cover 2300MHz~2690MHz; the first antenna D311 can support the B71 / B14 / B17 low frequency bands in North America, and can support the main signal transmission and reception functions of 5G SA and NSA.

[0118] The fourth antenna D213 is a diversity antenna. The antenna resonant frequency of the fourth antenna D213 covers the full frequency band of the 4G cellular diversity antenna, such as the low frequency can cover 600MHz~960MHz, the medium frequency can cover 1710MHz~2170MHz, and the high frequency can cover 2300MHz~2690MHz; the first antenna D311 can support the B71 / B14 / B17 low frequency bands in North America, and can support the main signal transmission and reception functions of 5G SA and NSA.

[0119] Optionally, the first antenna D311 and the fourth antenna D213 of this embodiment are LTE co-radiator and co-frequency antenna designs. In this case, the antenna module may further include an antenna tuning circuit for tuning the frequency bands of the first antenna D311 and the fourth antenna D213.

[0120] Optionally, the full-band cellular main antenna and the full-band cellular diversity antenna may cover common LTE FDD (frequency division duplex) frequency bands, such as Band 1, Band 2, Band 3, ..., Band 28, Band 66, and the like.

[0121] In this embodiment, by configuring the first antenna D311 as the main antenna and the fourth antenna D213 as the diversity antenna, and adopting an LTE co-radiator and co-frequency design, and with the antenna resonant frequency covering the full 4G cellular antenna frequency band, the antenna module is adaptable to multiple network standards. Furthermore, the main and diversity antennas share the same metal frame segment as the radiator, reducing physical gaps while isolating the feed point from the current path through optimized position, enabling independent operation of the main transmit link and the diversity receive link, improving antenna isolation, and thus enhancing communication reliability.

[0122] In an exemplary embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the fourth antenna D213 and the first antenna D311 share the first frame segment SS2; the module also includes:

[0123] A signal source 1 of the first antenna is arranged at a first position of the first frame segment SS2;

[0124] a first tuning circuit G141, wherein a first end of the first tuning circuit G141 is connected to the second position of the first frame segment SS2, and a second end of the first tuning circuit G141 is grounded;

[0125] A first matching circuit is provided in an area of the device cover 12 corresponding to a preset middle position of the first frame segment SS2; the first matching circuit is connected to the middle area of the first frame segment SS2, and a second end of the first matching circuit is grounded;

[0126] a second tuning circuit G121, wherein a first end of the second tuning circuit G121 is connected to a third position of the first frame segment SS2, and a second end of the second tuning circuit G121 is grounded;

[0127] The signal source 4 of the fourth antenna is arranged at the fourth position of the first frame segment SS2;

[0128] The directions from the first gap D31 to the second gap D21 are: first position, second position, middle area position, third position, and fourth position.

[0129] The first frame segment SS2 refers to a specific metal area between the first slot D31 and the second slot D21 in the metal frame of the device cover 12, and can serve as a shared radiator for the fourth antenna D213 and the first antenna D311. The signal source can refer to a feed point provided on the radiator. In this embodiment, the antenna signal source is provided on the device frame SS10.

[0130] The tuning circuit can be composed of adjustable capacitors, inductors, or switching elements, and can be used to dynamically adjust the antenna's resonant frequency or impedance matching. The first tuning circuit G141 can be used to tune the signal source 1 for the first antenna; the second tuning circuit G121 can be used to tune the signal source for the fourth antenna D213. The matching circuit can be a network composed of fixed or adjustable passive components (such as capacitors and inductors) that can match the antenna input impedance with the impedance of the RF front end, reducing signal reflections. The first matching circuit can refer to the matching circuit for the first frame segment SS2.

[0131] For example, along the first frame segment SS2, from the first slot D31 to the second slot D21, the following layouts may be arranged in sequence: first position: signal source 1 of the first antenna (feeding point of the first antenna D311); second position: grounding point of the first tuning circuit G141; middle position: grounding point of the first matching circuit; third position: grounding point of the second tuning circuit G121; fourth position: signal source 4 of the fourth antenna (feeding point of the fourth antenna D213).

[0132] Optionally, the working mode of the first antenna D311 that excites the signal source can be connected to the core wire of the RF coaxial line through a solder pad or a spring clip, and the feeding point is directly connected to the metal frame. One end of the first tuning circuit G141 is connected to the frame segment, and the other end is grounded. The equivalent electrical length of the first frame segment SS2 can be changed by adjusting the capacitance value to achieve frequency tuning in the low frequency band (600-960MHz). The first matching circuit can be a π-type or T-type LC network, which can be used to connect the middle area of the first frame segment SS2 and the ground plane. The second tuning circuit G121 can be similar to the first tuning circuit G141, but can be mainly optimized for the high frequency band (2.3-2.69GHz). The signal source 4 of the fourth antenna is another feeding point independent of the first antenna D311, which can be used to excite the diversity reception mode of the fourth antenna D213.

[0133] In this embodiment, a tuning circuit enables low-frequency co-frequency isolation of the two antennas, enabling independent optimization of low and high frequencies. The feed points of the first antenna D311 and the fourth antenna D213 are located at opposite ends of the frame segment, and the first matching circuit in between provides electrical isolation, thereby improving isolation. This reduces physical gaps while optimizing the feed point locations and isolating the current path, enabling independent operation of the main transmission link and the diversity reception link, improving antenna isolation, and thus enhancing communication reliability.

[0134] In an exemplary embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first matching circuit may specifically include:

[0135] The DC isolation circuit G13 is provided corresponding to the middle point of the first frame segment SS2 . A first end of the DC isolation circuit G13 is connected to the fifth position of the first frame segment SS2 , and a second end thereof is grounded.

[0136] The first DC blocking filter circuit G12 has a first end connected to the sixth position of the first frame segment SS2 and a second end grounded.

[0137] The second DC blocking filter circuit G14 has a first end connected to the seventh position of the first frame segment SS2 and a second end grounded.

[0138] The sixth position and the seventh position are symmetrically arranged at a preset distance from the fifth position.

[0139] The DC blocking circuit G13 can be composed of capacitors, blocking the DC component and allowing only AC RF signals to pass through, thereby preventing DC bias from affecting the antenna radiator. The DC blocking filter circuit can integrate filtering elements (such as inductors and capacitors) with the DC blocking function to implement bandpass or bandstop filtering in specific frequency bands to suppress out-of-band interference.

[0140] Exemplarily, the DC blocking circuit G13 is disposed at the midpoint (fifth position) of the first frame segment SS2 as the center of symmetry for the current distribution. The first end of the DC blocking circuit G13 can be connected to the metal frame segment at the fifth position via a solder pad or conductive adhesive, and the second end is used for grounding. For example, it can be connected to the internal ground plane of the device or other grounding areas of the metal cover. The first DC blocking filter circuit G12 is located on one side of the fifth position and is disposed at a sixth position at a preset distance from the fifth position. The second DC blocking filter circuit G14 is disposed on the other side of the fifth position and is disposed at a seventh position symmetrically distributed with the sixth position. The seventh position is at the same preset distance from the fifth position as the sixth position is from the fifth position.

[0141] In this embodiment, the first DC blocking filter circuit G12 and the second DC blocking filter circuit G14 can improve the low-frequency isolation problem and DC isolation grounding of the main and diversity antennas. The DC blocking grounding network structure of the DC blocking circuit G13 provides a reference channel for the main and diversity antenna SAR reduction circuit, thereby realizing the FCC and CE certified SAR reduction solution.

[0142] In an exemplary embodiment, the length of the first frame segment SS2 is 160-180 mm; the preset distance is 3-5 mm.

[0143] For example, the physical length of the main and diversity LTE antennas is a quarter wavelength at low frequencies. The length of the first frame segment SS2 can be 160-180 mm, ensuring good antenna radiation performance. The first DC blocking filter circuit G12 and the second DC blocking filter circuit G14 can be located 3-5 mm on either side of the DC blocking filter circuit G13, for example, with a preset distance of 3 mm. This effectively achieves low-frequency isolation between the first antenna D311 and the fourth antenna D213, and allows for DC isolation to be grounded.

[0144] In an exemplary embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the first frame segment SS2, which is approximately 160-180 mm long, serves as the antenna radiator. Located at the center of the radiator's metal frame are the first DC blocking filter circuit G12, the second DC blocking filter circuit G13, and the matching circuit G14, which are connected to ground. The DC blocking filter G13 is located at the center of the main and diversity antenna metal frames. The first and second DC blocking filters G12 and G14 are located approximately 3-5 mm to either side of the DC blocking filter G13. The first and second DC blocking filters G12 and G14 form a DC blocking circuit G13 and a filter circuit. The DC blocking filter G13 can include a DC blocking capacitor or a DC blocking device. The first frame segment SS2 serves as the antenna radiator. It features a co-radiator design with the first antenna D311 (main antenna) and the fourth antenna D213 (diversity antenna), arranged symmetrically around the DC blocking filter G13. The physical length of the main and diversity LTE antennas is a quarter wavelength at low frequencies, ensuring good antenna radiation performance.

[0145] The first antenna D311 includes a signal source 1 (the first antenna of the 4G / 5G main antenna) and a second tuning circuit G121. This second tuning circuit G121 includes antenna tuning switches, isolation, and impedance matching circuits, effectively tuning the low-frequency bands (B71, B28, B20, B5, and B8) and the mid- and high-frequency bands. By adjusting the actual antenna impedance to different inductance and capacitance values, the antenna signal achieves optimal radiation performance, meeting the OTA standards of North American and European operators. The fourth antenna D213 includes a signal source 4 (the fourth antenna of the 4G / 5G network) and a first tuning circuit G141. This first tuning circuit G141 includes antenna tuning switches, isolation, and impedance matching circuits, effectively tuning the low-frequency bands (B71, B28, B20, B5, and B8) and the mid- and high-frequency bands. By adjusting the actual antenna impedance to different inductance and capacitance values, the antenna signal achieves optimal reception performance, meeting the OTA standards of North American and European operators.

[0146] In this embodiment, the first antenna D311 of the main antenna and the fourth antenna D213 of the diversity antenna are LTE co-radiator and co-frequency antenna structures. Conventional co-radiator antennas are designed with frequency bands staggered with medium and high frequencies or ultra-high frequencies to reduce co-frequency interference problems. This application provides a structural setting of the main antenna and diversity antenna layout co-radiator for the entire LTE frequency band, so that the main and diversity antennas both cover low / medium / high frequency bands. In the design of two co-frequency antennas, in the limited space of the metal flat plate, the lower the frequency band, the worse the co-frequency isolation, resulting in a decrease in antenna performance and becoming a technical bottleneck for the terminal product antenna. This embodiment can solve the problem of low-frequency co-frequency isolation of the two antennas while reducing the number of gaps.

[0147] In an exemplary embodiment, the second antenna D312 is a main antenna, and the resonant frequency of the second antenna D312 covers the SUB-6G antenna frequency band.

[0148] The third antenna D412 is a diversity antenna, and the resonant frequency of the third antenna D412 covers the intermediate frequency and high frequency of the SUB-6G frequency band included in the 5G frequency band.

[0149] The seventh antenna 14 is an all-in-one antenna, and the resonant frequency of the seventh antenna 14 covers antenna frequency bands of multiple satellite navigation systems, WiFi antenna frequency bands, and Bluetooth antenna frequency bands.

[0150] The eighth antenna 19 is a 5G ENDC antenna, and the resonant frequency of the eighth antenna 19 covers the n20 and n28 antenna frequency bands.

[0151] For example, the antenna resonant frequency of the second antenna D312 covers the SUB-6G antenna frequency band, covering frequencies from 3.3GHz to 5GMHz, supporting n77 / n78 / n79, meeting the 5G communication protocols in North America, Europe, and China, and the main signal transmission and reception functions of SA and NSA. The antenna resonant frequency of the third antenna D412 covers the SUB-6G band of the 5G antenna frequency band, with a frequency coverage bandwidth of 1710MHz to 4.2GHz, supporting multi-band MIMO technology, and meeting the signal reception functions of SA and NSA.

[0152] Alternatively, as Figure 1 As shown, the second antenna D312 and the third antenna D412 share the second frame segment SS5 of the metal frame. The second antenna D312 covers the n77 / 78 / n79 signals and the same-frequency coverage of the third antenna D412 produces co-frequency interference. The metal frame SS5 is provided with a first grounding circuit G15G15 and a second grounding circuit G16G16, which can improve and solve the risk of isolation of the n77 / n78 / n79 signals of the dual antennas at the same frequency.

[0153] The seventh antenna 14 can be a three-in-one antenna, and its functions can cover GPS / Beidou / GNSS+WiFi2.4GHz / 5GHz / 6GHz+Bluetooth. The antenna resonant frequency of the seventh antenna 14 covers 1.575~1.650GHz, 2.4~2.5GHz, and 5~7.125GHz. Figure 1 As shown, the seventh antenna 14 can be set in the decorative area 16 of the rear camera area. The seventh antenna 14 can adopt the PIFA antenna design principle and the traditional FPC process, and be mounted on the plastic bracket of the rear camera deco decorative part. The antenna area meets 400mm².

[0154] like Figure 1As shown, the eighth antenna 19 is a 5G ENDC antenna, and the signal source 8 of the eighth antenna is also set at the second preset position. The antenna resonant frequency of the eighth antenna 19 covers the n20 and n28 antenna bands. The n20 supports both transmit and receive functions and supports the ENDC combination of n20 and n28, meeting the technical requirements of European low-band + low-band ENDC combination operators.

[0155] In this embodiment, by setting the second antenna D312 as the main antenna and the third antenna D412 as the diversity antenna, and adopting a common radiator and frequency design, and the antenna resonant frequency can cover the SUB-6G antenna band, the second antenna D312, the third antenna D412, and the eighth antenna 19 are used in conjunction with each other to achieve the multi-input and multi-output performance index requirements of the antenna module. The seventh antenna 14 is also used to achieve GPS positioning and WiFi and Bluetooth functions, so that the antenna module can have the adaptability of multiple standard networks. At the same time, the main and diversity antennas share the same metal frame segment as the radiator. While reducing physical gaps, the feed point position can be optimized and isolated from the current path to achieve independent operation of the main transmission link and the diversity reception link, improve antenna isolation, and thus improve communication reliability.

[0156] In an exemplary embodiment, the first slit D31 and the second slit D21 are disposed on the first long frame, and the second preset position is disposed close to the first long frame.

[0157] Exemplarily, the eighth antenna 19 (5G ENDC antenna) is disposed near the first long frame but inside the device cover 12 (e.g., near the center of the long frame). For example, the eighth antenna 19 is disposed near the first long frame but not directly in contact with the gap area.

[0158] In this embodiment, the eighth antenna 19 can form an extended ground reference plane through the adjacent metal cover area to improve the low-frequency radiation efficiency.

[0159] In an exemplary embodiment, the fifth antenna D212 is a main antenna, and the resonant frequency of the fifth antenna D212 covers the B21 frequency band in the 4G LTE frequency band and the SUB-6G frequency band included in the 5G frequency band;

[0160] The sixth antenna D112 is a 5G ENDC antenna, and the resonant frequency of the sixth antenna D112 covers the mid-frequency band, high-frequency band and sub6G band included in the 4G frequency band.

[0161] Exemplarily, the antenna resonant frequency of the fifth antenna D212 covers the B21 / B11 and SUB-6G antenna frequency bands, i.e., B21 / B11 frequency: 1.42GHz~1.45GMHz, n77 / n78 / n79 frequency: 3.3GHz~4.2GMHz, which can meet the 5G communication protocols in Japan and Europe, support the Japanese operator B21 main transmission and reception functions, and the MIMO diversity signal reception function of the SUB-6G antenna frequency band.

[0162] The antenna resonant frequency of the sixth antenna D112 covers the medium frequency / high frequency / SUB-6G bands of 4G and 5G, with a frequency coverage bandwidth of 1710MHz~4.2GHz. It supports medium frequency / high frequency / SUB-6G multi-frequency MIMO technology and can be used for the transmitting and receiving antenna functions of medium frequency / high frequency ENDC. It can be combined with SUB-6G and other antennas for ENDC functions and CA functions to meet the signal transmission and reception functions of operators SA and NSA.

[0163] Alternatively, as Figure 1 As shown, the fifth antenna D212 and the sixth antenna D112 share the third metal frame segment SS3. The n77 / n78 / n79 signals covered by the fifth antenna D212 interfere with the co-frequency coverage of the sixth antenna D112, resulting in co-channel interference. A second matching circuit (including third matching circuit G10 and fourth matching circuit G11) is provided in third frame segment SS3 to mitigate the risk of isolation of the n77 / n78 / n79 signals from the dual antennas. By tuning the inductance and capacitance of matching circuits G10 and G11, the SUB-6G frequency band isolation between the fifth and sixth antennas D212 and D112 is improved, ensuring isolation and grounding. This provides a reference channel for the main antenna's SAR reduction circuit, achieving FCC and CE certification for SAR reduction.

[0164] As an example, for the fifth antenna D212, the signal feed 5 can be arranged at a position 10 mm away from the D21 break, which is consistent with the 1 / 4 wavelength length of the operating frequency in the 5G frequency band; the tuning and matching circuit G11 is located at the corner of the metal frame, and the physical length of the signal feed 5 and the tuning and matching circuit G11 is approximately 1 / 4 wavelength length of the B21&B11 frequency band, that is, about 45 mm in length.

[0165] As an example, the signal feed 6 of the sixth antenna D112 can be arranged at a position 10mm away from the break D11, which meets the 1 / 4 wavelength length of the operating frequency in the 5G frequency band; the sixth antenna D112 arranges the tuning circuit G131 of the antenna switch, which is used for bandwidth switching in the medium and high frequency bands to ensure the antenna frequency band performance index requirements; the switch tuning circuit G131 is located at a position approximately 13mm from the signal 6, and this position can be at the zero point of the antenna current, which is convenient for tuning to the optimal state. The tuning matching circuit G10 is located approximately 35mm away from the signal 6, and the physical length of the metal frame diagram is approximately 1 / 4 wavelength length of the B3 frequency band.

[0166] In this embodiment, the fifth antenna D212 is responsible for the primary communication links of the 4G low-band and 5G mid-band, serving as the primary antenna for signal transmission and reception. The sixth antenna D112 supports 4G / 5G dual connectivity (ENDC) and can be used for high-band signal enhancement and diversity reception. This can be combined with other antennas to meet the antenna module's 4G+5G NR 4*4 MIMO performance requirements.

[0167] In an exemplary embodiment, the second antenna D312 is a GPS antenna, and the resonant frequency of the second antenna D312 covers antenna frequency bands of multiple satellite navigation systems;

[0168] The third antenna D412 is a MIMO diversity antenna, and the resonant frequency of the third antenna D412 covers the 5G frequency band as well as the high frequency and SUB-6G frequency bands.

[0169] The seventh antenna 14 is a WiFi antenna, and the resonant frequency of the seventh antenna 14 covers the antenna frequency band of WiFi and the antenna frequency band of Bluetooth.

[0170] The eighth antenna 19 is a 5G diversity antenna, and the resonant frequency of the eighth antenna 19 covers the SUB-6G frequency band included in the 5G frequency band.

[0171] For example, the second antenna D312's antenna resonant frequency covers the GPS, BDS, GLONAS, and Galileo antenna bands, with a frequency range of 1.572 GHz to 1.65 GHz, meeting satellite positioning communication protocols in North America, Europe, and China. The third antenna D412's antenna resonant frequency covers the SUB-6G band of the 5G antenna band, with a frequency coverage bandwidth of 1710 MHz to 4.2 GHz, supporting multi-band MIMO technology and meeting SA and NSA signal reception functions.

[0172] Alternatively, as Figure 2As shown, the second antenna D312 and the third antenna D412 share the second frame segment SS5 of the metal frame. The second antenna D312 covers the n77 / 78 / n79 signals and the same frequency coverage of the third antenna D412 produces multi-frequency interference. The metal frame SS5 is provided with a first grounding circuit G15 and a second grounding circuit G16, which can improve and solve the risk of isolation of the n77 / n78 / n79 signals of the dual antennas at the same frequency.

[0173] The seventh antenna 14 is a WiFi antenna. The functions of the seventh antenna 14 cover WiFi 2.4GHz / 5GHz / 6GHz+Bluetooth. The antenna resonant frequency of the seventh antenna 14 covers 2.4~2.5GHz and 5~7.125GHz. Figure 2 As shown, the seventh antenna 14 can be set in the decorative area 16 of the rear camera area. The seventh antenna 14 can adopt the PIFA antenna design principle and the traditional FPC process, and be mounted on the plastic bracket of the rear camera deco decorative part. The area of the seventh antenna 14 can meet 300mm².

[0174] like Figure 2 As shown, the eighth antenna 19 is a 5G diversity antenna. The eighth antenna 19 can be designed using the PCB process resonant cavity antenna principle. The antenna size is 21*18*2.5mm. The eighth antenna 19 includes a shielding cover S99, a PCB board 13 sub-SS98, a fifth matching circuit G19, a signal source 8, a first antenna D311 ground feed G191, a second antenna D312 ground feed G192, and a third antenna D412 ground feed G193; the antenna resonant impedance is tuned by the fifth matching circuit G19 to optimize the antenna bandwidth, and the frequency mode tuning is performed by the first antenna D3 The matching of 11 ground feed G191, the second antenna D312 ground feed G192, and the third antenna D412 ground feed G193, and the frequency mode in-band tuning and filter tuning are performed by capacitors or inductors to make the S11 multi-mode resonant mode operate at 3.2GHz, 4.2GHz, and 5GHz, covering the n77 / n78 / n79 frequency bands of SUB-6G, and supporting the ENDC and CA combination technologies of 4*4MIMO in the n77 / n78 / n79 frequency bands, meeting the ENDC combination operator technology requirements of operators in China, Europe, Japan, and North America.

[0175] In this embodiment, by configuring the second antenna D312 as a GPS antenna and the third antenna D412 as a diversity antenna, and adopting a common radiator design, the antenna resonant frequency of the second antenna D312 covers the antenna frequency bands of multiple satellite navigation systems, and the antenna resonant frequency of the third antenna D412 can cover the SUB-6G antenna frequency band. The eighth antenna 19 cooperates with the third antenna D412 to achieve 5G diversity, covering the SUB-6G frequency band included in the 5G frequency band. The seventh antenna 14 also cooperates with the second antenna D312 to achieve GPS positioning as well as WiFi and Bluetooth functions, enabling the antenna module to adapt to multiple network standards. Furthermore, the second antenna D312 and the third antenna D412, as well as the seventh antenna 14 and the eighth antenna 19, share the same metal frame segment as a radiator. This reduces physical gaps while isolating the feed point from the current path through optimized position, enabling independent operation of the main transmission link and the diversity reception link, improving antenna isolation and thereby enhancing communication reliability.

[0176] In an exemplary embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the first slit D31 and the second slit D21 are arranged in the first long frame, the second preset position is arranged close to the second long frame, and the second long frame is arranged opposite to the first long frame.

[0177] Exemplarily, the eighth antenna 19 can be designed using the PCB process resonant cavity antenna principle, with an antenna size of 21*18*2.5mm. The eighth antenna 19 includes a shielding cover S99SS99, a PCB board 13 sub-SS98, a fifth matching circuit G19, a signal source 8, a first antenna D311 ground feed G191, a second antenna D312 ground feed G192, and a third antenna D412 ground feed G193; the antenna resonant impedance is tuned by the fifth matching circuit G19 to optimize the antenna bandwidth, and the frequency mode is tuned by the first antenna D311 ground feed G191, the second antenna D312 ground feed G192, and the third antenna D412 ground feed G193 are matched, and the capacitors or inductors are used for frequency mode in-band tuning and filter tuning, so that the S11 multi-mode resonant mode can operate at 3.2GHz, 4.2GHz, and 5GHz, covering the n77 / n78 / n79 frequency bands of SUB-6G, and supporting the ENDC and CA combination technologies of 4*4MIMO in the n77 / n78 / n79 frequency bands, meeting the ENDC combination operator technology requirements of operators in China, Europe, Japan, and North America.

[0179] The sixth antenna D112 is a 5G ENDC antenna, and the resonant frequency of the sixth antenna D112 covers the full frequency band of 4G and the SUB-6G frequency band included in the 5G frequency band.

[0180] Exemplarily, the antenna resonant frequency of the fifth antenna D212 covers the B21 / B11 and SUB-6G antenna frequency bands, i.e., B21 / B11 frequency: 1.42GHz~1.45GMHz, n77 / n78 / n79 frequency: 3.3GHz~4.2GMHz, which can meet the 5G communication protocols in Japan and Europe, support the Japanese operator B21 main transmission and reception functions, and the MIMO diversity signal reception function of the SUB-6G antenna frequency band.

[0181] The antenna resonant frequency of the sixth antenna D112 covers the full frequency band of 4G and the SUB-6G frequency band of 5G, realizing multi-frequency MIMO technology functions. The low frequency covers 600MHz~960MHz, the medium frequency covers 1710MHz~2170MHz, and the high frequency covers 2300MHz~2690MHz; it can be used for ENDC B20 / B28 low frequency band. The sixth antenna D112 can be equipped with an antenna switch G131 for low, medium and high frequency switching to meet the signal main set transmission and reception functions of SA and NSA.

[0182] Alternatively, as Figure 2 As shown, the fifth antenna D212 and the sixth antenna D112 share the third metal frame segment SS3. The n77 / n78 / n79 signals covered by the fifth antenna D212 interfere with the co-frequency coverage of the sixth antenna D112, resulting in co-channel interference. A second matching circuit (including third matching circuit G10 and fourth matching circuit G11) is provided in third frame segment SS3 to mitigate the risk of isolation of the n77 / n78 / n79 signals from the dual antennas. By tuning the inductance and capacitance of matching circuits G10 and G11, the SUB-6G frequency band isolation between the fifth and sixth antennas D212 and D112 is improved, ensuring isolation and grounding. This provides a reference channel for the main antenna's SAR reduction circuit, achieving FCC and CE certification for SAR reduction.

[0183] In this embodiment, the fifth antenna D212 is responsible for the primary communication links for the 4G low-band and 5G mid-band signals, serving as the primary antenna for both signal transmission and reception. The sixth antenna D112 supports 4G / 5G dual connectivity (ENDC), enabling signal enhancement and diversity reception across all 4G frequency bands and high frequency bands. This, combined with other antennas, allows the antenna module to meet the 4G+5G NR4*4 MIMO performance requirements.

[0189] There are at least two second matching circuits, a first end of each second matching circuit is connected to a different grounding point of the third frame segment SS3, and a second end of each second matching circuit is used for grounding.

[0190] For example, the fifth antenna D212 and the sixth antenna D112 share the third metal frame segment SS3. The n77 / n78 / n79 signals covered by the fifth antenna D212 interfere with the co-frequency coverage of the sixth antenna D112, generating co-channel interference. A second matching circuit (including a third matching circuit G10 and a fourth matching circuit G11) is provided in the third frame segment SS3 to mitigate the risk of isolating the n77 / n78 / n79 signals from the two antennas. By tuning the inductance and capacitance of matching circuits G10 and G11, the SUB-6G frequency band isolation between the fifth and sixth antennas D212 and D112 is improved, ensuring isolation and grounding. This provides a reference channel for the main antenna's SAR reduction circuit, achieving FCC and CE certification for SAR reduction.

[0191] In an exemplary embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the third antenna D412 and the second antenna D312 share the second frame segment SS5;

[0192] The second frame segment SS5 is provided with at least two grounding points for grounding;
