[0029] Embodiment one

[0030] As shown in the drawings, the embodiment of the utility model provides an on-board antenna structure, which comprises a main plate body 1, an antenna body 2, a feeding circuit 3 and a grounding circuit 4. Figure 1

[0031] ​The clearance gap 5 is formed between the main plate body 1 and the antenna body 2, which is used to ensure the normal operation of the antenna body 2, and also used to separate the main plate body 1, so that part of the main plate body 1 can be coupled with the antenna body 2 to resonate, thereby expanding the effective radiation area of the antenna body 2, and improving the radiation performance of the antenna body 2 under the same clearance gap 5 (clearance area).

[0032] Specifically, the clearance gap 5 includes a feed clearance area 51 parallel to the length direction of the antenna body 2 and a clearance gap 52.

[0033] The clearance gap 52 is used to at least partially separate the main plate body 1, so that the main plate body 1 is separated to form a first main plate 11 and a second main plate 12 connected with each other, and the second main plate 12 is arranged opposite to the antenna body 2, so that the second main plate 12 and the antenna body 2 can form a coupled resonance under the action of the feed circuit 3 and the grounding circuit 4.

[0034] Specifically, because various electronic elements and circuits exist on the second main plate 12, an electric field will be generated when working, and the antenna body 2 will also have an electric field distribution when receiving or transmitting signals. Therefore, when the two are arranged opposite to each other, their electric fields can overlap and affect each other, so that the electric field energy can be transmitted and exchanged between the two, creating conditions for coupled resonance in the electric field.

[0035] In addition, a magnetic field will be generated when current passes through the antenna body 2, and a magnetic field will also be generated when the circuit on the second main plate 12 works. The opposite arrangement makes their magnetic fields able to couple with each other, just like the primary and secondary winding of a transformer. The interaction of the magnetic fields makes energy can be transmitted between the two through the magnetic field, promoting the occurrence of coupled resonance.

[0036] In the embodiment, the feed circuit 3 is connected with the input end of the antenna body 2, and the grounding circuit 4 is connected with the grounding end of the antenna body 2 and the second main plate 12, to provide a signal input channel and form a signal loop, and to provide conditions for the body resonance of the antenna body 2 and the coupled resonance of the antenna body 2 and the second main plate 12.

[0037] It should be particularly pointed out that the body resonance formed by the antenna body 2 and the coupled resonance formed by the antenna body 2 and the second main plate 12 are consistent in frequency.

[0038] Wherein, the frequency of the coupling resonance formed by the second main plate 12 and the antenna body 2 mainly depends on the size of the clearance gap 5, that is, by limiting the size of the clearance gap 5 when leaving the factory, the above-mentioned coupling resonance formed is ensured to be consistent with the body resonance formed by the antenna body 2, so as to achieve the purpose of improving the radiation performance of the antenna body 2.

[0039] The device is provided with the antenna body 2 and the main plate body 1, and the clearance gap 5 including the feed clearance 51 and the clearance gap 52 is formed between the antenna body 2 and the main plate body 1, and the clearance gap 52 can separate the main plate body 1 into the first main plate 11 and the second main plate 12 arranged opposite to the antenna body 2, and then under the connection of the feed circuit 3 and the grounding circuit 4, the antenna body 2 and the antenna body 2 and the second main plate 12 can form body resonance and coupling resonance respectively, and by limiting the size of the clearance gap 5, the body resonance and the coupling resonance are consistent in frequency, so as to make the resonance bandwidth larger, realize the function of increasing the effective radiation area of the antenna body 2, and achieve the purpose of improving the antenna radiation performance under the same clearance area.

[0040] In the embodiment, in order to further shorten the area occupied by the clearance gap 5 and reserve more space for the installation of other devices, the purpose of improving performance while further reducing the area occupied by the clearance area is achieved, so the clearance gap 5 is arranged as an L-shaped structure.

[0041] And the clearance gap 52 and the feed clearance 51 are vertically distributed on the surface of the main plate body 1.

[0042] In a specific example, taking the body resonance formed by the antenna body 2 as 2.4G as an example, in order to make the coupling resonance formed between the antenna body 2 and the second main plate 12 also 2.4G, so as to increase the effective radiation area of the antenna body 2, so that the original 2.4G frequency band efficiency is improved by 3db, and the purpose of improving the antenna radiation performance under the same clearance area is achieved, so the size of the clearance gap 5 is further limited.

[0043] Specifically, the width of the feed clearance 51 is 0.5mm-0.9mm, and the length of the feed clearance 51 is 6.3mm-6.7mm. Wherein, the depth (as shown by H1 in the figure) of the clearance gap 52 is 3.0mm-3.4mm, and the width (as shown by L1 in the figure) of the clearance gap 52 is 0.8mm-1.2mm. Figure 1 Figure 1

[0044] In other embodiments, the first main plate 11 is provided with a plate-to-plate connector 6 and a switch spring 7.​​

[0045] And, the second main board 12 is provided with a microphone device 8 and a charging interface 9.

[0046] In further embodiments, the feed circuit 3 and the grounding circuit 4 are further defined. Specifically, the feed circuit 3 includes an F-type matching circuit and a π-type matching circuit, for enhancing the gain intensity of the antenna body 2.

[0047] The F-type matching circuit can adjust the impedance of the feed point, so that the input impedance of the antenna body 2 is better matched with the output impedance of the feed circuit. Moreover, for a loop antenna, the F-type matching circuit can effectively reduce signal reflection, allowing more radio frequency energy to be transmitted to the antenna body 2, thereby improving the radiation efficiency of the antenna and enhancing the gain intensity.

[0048] In addition, the π-type matching circuit has more flexible impedance transformation capability and can achieve good impedance matching in a wider frequency range. For a loop antenna operating in the 2.4G frequency band, the π-type matching circuit can transform the impedance of the feed circuit 3 to a suitable value according to the actual impedance of the antenna and the operating frequency requirement, further improving the gain intensity of the antenna in this frequency band and reducing the loss in the signal transmission process.

[0049] Further, the π-type matching circuit can also have a filtering effect, which can suppress the harmonics that may be generated by the loop antenna. It can make the antenna more focused on signal radiation and reception at the operating frequency, avoiding interference with other frequency bands caused by harmonics, improving the purity of the signal and the stability of the system, and indirectly improving the performance of the antenna in the normal operating frequency band.

[0050] The grounding circuit 4 includes a series capacitor for changing the impedance characteristics of the antenna body 2 to fine-tune the resonant frequency and operating bandwidth of the antenna body 2.

[0051] The series capacitor, when connected to the grounding circuit 4, changes the overall impedance characteristics of the loop antenna. The capacitive reactance of the capacitor is related to the frequency, and at different frequencies it will have different effects on the impedance of the antenna. By selecting an appropriate series capacitor value, the input impedance of the antenna can be made to reach a more ideal value near the target operating frequency, achieving better matching effect and thus optimizing the radiation performance of the antenna.

[0052] In this embodiment, the antenna body 2 is configured as a loop antenna to better adapt to the feed circuit 3 and the grounding circuit 4.

[0054] The second embodiment further proposes a TWS device on the basis of the first embodiment, which comprises the on-board antenna structure described in the first embodiment, and achieves the purpose of improving the antenna radiation performance under the same clearance area.

Thus, it is intended that the present application include modifications and variations of the present application coming within the scope of the claims and their equivalents.
