[0031] Embodiment 1:

[0032] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 This embodiment provides a high and low frequency signal transceiver device, including a low frequency antenna 1, a high frequency antenna 2, a decoupling branch 3, a reflection plate 4 and a balun structure 5.

[0033] The low-frequency antenna 1 and the high-frequency antenna 2 are both flat and parallel to the reflector 4. In this embodiment, the transceiver frequency band of the low-frequency antenna 1 is 690-960 MHz, and the transceiver frequency band of the high-frequency antenna 2 is 1710-2690 MHz. In some other embodiments, the number of low-frequency antennas 1 and high-frequency antennas 2 can be further increased, and there can be differences in the transceiver frequency bands between different low-frequency antennas 1, and there can also be differences in the transceiver frequency bands between different high-frequency antennas 2. In this embodiment, the number of low-frequency antennas 1 is one, and the number of high-frequency antennas 2 is two.

[0034] The low frequency antenna 1 and the high frequency antenna 2 are located on the same side of the reflector 4. The low frequency antenna 1 and the high frequency antenna 2 are both mounted on the reflector 4 and are spaced apart from the reflector 4.

[0035] In this embodiment, the balun structure 5 is located between the low-frequency antenna 1 and the reflector 4, and the two ends of the balun structure 5 are respectively arranged on the low-frequency antenna 1 and the reflector 4. The low-frequency antenna 1 is installed on the reflector 4 through the balun structure 5 so that the distance between the low-frequency antenna 1 and the reflector 4 is greater than the distance between the high-frequency antenna 2 and the reflector 4.

[0036] The low-frequency antenna 1 and the high-frequency antenna 2 are arranged at an interval, and the low-frequency antenna 1 partially blocks the high-frequency antenna 2, that is, the orthographic projection of the low-frequency antenna 1 on the reflector 4 partially overlaps the orthographic projection of the high-frequency antenna 2 on the reflector 4. As a result, the low-frequency antenna 1 interferes with the signal reception and transmission of the high-frequency antenna 2.

[0037] Similarly, in some other embodiments, the balun structure 5 is located between the high-frequency antenna 2 and the reflector 4, and the distance between the low-frequency antenna 1 and the reflector 4 is smaller than the distance between the high-frequency antenna 2 and the reflector 4, which also causes the high-frequency antenna 2 to interfere with the signal reception and transmission of the low-frequency antenna 1. This is an equivalent solution of this embodiment, so it will not be repeated.

[0038] Consistent with the prior art, the low-frequency antenna 1 includes a radiation dielectric substrate and a plurality of radiation arms arranged on the surface of the radiation dielectric substrate. In this embodiment, there are four radiation arms arranged in a square array, two of which form a pair of half-wave dipoles, and the other two radiation arms form another pair of half-wave dipoles, and each radiation arm includes four strip lines.

[0039] In order to reduce the signal interference of the low-frequency antenna 1 on the high-frequency antenna 2, and also to reduce the signal interference of the high-frequency antenna 2 on the low-frequency antenna 1, a decoupling branch 3 is provided on each strip line of the radiation arm, and the decoupling branch 3 is located on the inner side of the radiation arm. It is not difficult to understand that in order to reduce the coupling effect between the low-frequency antenna 1 and the high-frequency antenna 2, the specific structure of the decoupling branch 3 needs to be designed to a certain extent.

[0040] Based on this, this embodiment provides a specific structure of a decoupling branch 3 to meet the decoupling requirements in this embodiment. Specifically, the decoupling branch 3 only includes a first bending section 31 and a second bending section 32, and the first bending section 31 and the second bending section 32 are both straight and parallel to the reflector 4. One end of the second bending section 32 is connected to one end of the first bending section 31, and the other end of the first bending section 31 is connected to the strip line, and the other end of the second bending section 32 is spaced from the strip line, and the first bending section 31 is inclined relative to the second bending section 32, so the decoupling branch 3 of this embodiment is L-shaped.

[0041] Preferably, the second bending section 32 is perpendicular to the first bending section 31, and the length ratio of the second bending section 32 to the first bending section 31 is 2.5:1. The strip line includes a first radiation section 11 and a second radiation section 12, and the first radiation section 11 and the second radiation section 12 are located on the same straight line. One end of the first radiation section 11 is connected to one end of the second radiation section 12, and the length ratio of the first radiation section 11 to the second radiation section 12 is 1:2. The end of the first bending section 31 is located at the connection between the first radiation section 11 and the second radiation section 12, that is, the end of the first bending section 31 is located at the point where the strip line is divided into three equal parts, and the first bending section 31 is perpendicular to the first radiation section 11. The second radiation section 12 and the second bending section 32 are located on the same side of the first bending section 31. The above structural proportional relationship can effectively change the current distribution of the entire radiation arm, thereby achieving a decoupling effect.

[0042] In this embodiment, the sum of the lengths of the second bending section 32 and the first bending section 31 is the total length L of the decoupling branch 3 , and L is equal to one quarter of the target decoupling wavelength.

[0043] See also Figure 4 Before the high-frequency antenna 2 of this embodiment is decoupled by the decoupling branch 3, the vertical plane radiation pattern shows obvious distortion. After the decoupling of the decoupling branch 3, the vertical plane distortion problem is significantly alleviated, while the horizontal plane radiation pattern does not change significantly, maintaining good consistency.

[0044] See also Figure 5 When the high-frequency electromagnetic wave is radiated to the low-frequency antenna 1, the radiation efficiency under different L values ​​(corresponding to different target decoupling wavelengths) reaches about -62.5dB, which proves that the decoupling branch 3 has a good shielding effect on the high-frequency electromagnetic wave and achieves a good specific frequency decoupling effect.

[0045] Embodiment 2:

[0046] See also Figure 3 The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the decoupling branch 3 further includes a third bending section 33. The end of the second bending section 32 away from the first bending section 31 is connected to one end of the third bending section 33, so that the decoupling branch 3 of this embodiment is in a U-shape, and the other end of the third bending section 33 is connected to the strip line.

[0047] Further preferably, the second bend section 32 is parallel to the strip line, and the second bend section 32 and the strip line where it is located have the same symmetry axis, the first bend section 31 and the third bend section 33 are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the second bend section 32, and the length ratio of the first bend section 31, the second bend section 32 and the third bend section 33 is 1:3:1. At this time, the decoupling branch 3 can generate a signal with equal amplitude and antiphase to the coupling signal between the low-frequency antenna and the high-frequency antenna, and the two cancel each other out to reduce coupling.

[0048] See also Figure 6 Similar to Example 1, before the high-frequency antenna 2 of this embodiment is decoupled by the decoupling branch 3, the vertical plane radiation pattern shows obvious distortion. After the decoupling of the decoupling branch 3, the above-mentioned vertical plane distortion problem is significantly alleviated, while the horizontal plane radiation pattern does not undergo obvious changes, maintaining good consistency.

[0049] See also Figure 7 When the high-frequency electromagnetic wave is radiated to the low-frequency antenna 1, the radiation efficiency of the low-frequency antenna 1 reaches about -56dB, indicating that the decoupling branch 3 of this embodiment has a good shielding effect on the high-frequency electromagnetic wave and achieves a good decoupling effect.

[0050] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0051] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
