Detailed Implementation

[0021] To achieve the above objectives and effects, the technical means and structure adopted by this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the preferred embodiment of this utility model, so as to facilitate a complete understanding.

[0022] Please see Figures 1-3 The figures shown are, respectively, an embodiment diagram of the antenna of this utility model, a schematic diagram of the high-frequency signal transmission path, and a schematic diagram of the medium / low-frequency signal transmission path. As can be clearly seen from the figures, the fixing device of this utility model mainly includes a carrier 1, a signal line 2, a grounding area 3, and a return grounding wire 4. Its main components and features are detailed below:

[0023] The carrier 1 refers to a planar printed circuit board (PCB), a plastic board, or a three-dimensional metal antenna formed by wire cutting. The carrier 1 is attached to a wireless electronic device (e.g., a wireless network card with an external USB interface [Wi-Fi USB dongle]), but it is not limited to this. Any wireless electronic device that uses a Wi-Fi wireless interface is an embodiment of this utility model.

[0024] The signal line 2 is in an asymmetrical T-shape and is formed on the carrier 1. The signal line 2 includes a high-frequency radiating part 21 and a first signal line 22 extending from the high-frequency radiating part 21 is coupled to a junction area 3 and a feed point 31 is formed at the coupling point for soldering a preset cable (not shown in the figure).

[0025] The loop grounding wire 4 is formed on the carrier 1 and forms a low / intermediate frequency radiating part 41 with multiple bends around the signal line 2. The low / intermediate frequency radiating part 41 includes an outer loop conduction path 411 and an inner loop conduction path 412 that bends inward on one side of the outer loop conduction path 411. The second signal line 42 and the third signal line 43 at both ends of the outer loop conduction path 411 are coupled to the grounding area 3. The loop grounding wire 4 surrounds the signal line 2 to form a coplanar waveguide feeding-point monopole antenna with dipole antenna characteristics.

[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, the high-frequency radiating portion 21 of the signal line 2 has a top-loading portion 211 on its top side, which allows for adjustable impedance matching and bandwidth of the high-frequency resonant band, and the top-loading portion 211 has a narrow rectangular structure; while the first signal line 22 of the signal line 2 extends vertically with an open-circuit cut-off line 221, which allows for adjustable impedance matching and bandwidth of the high-frequency resonant band. The high-frequency signal transmission path A is via the first signal line 22 to the high-frequency radiating portion 21.

[0027] The inner circuit conduction path 412 of the aforementioned grounding wire 4 has an adjustment area 4121 that can adjust the impedance matching and bandwidth of the low-frequency resonant band, and the adjustment area 4121 has a rectangular structure.

[0028] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the low-frequency signal conduction path B of the loop grounding wire 4 completes low-frequency signal conduction in the following order: the second signal line 42, the outer loop conduction path 411 (approximately U-shaped), the inner loop conduction path 412 (approximately inverted C-shaped), and the third signal line 43. The intermediate-frequency signal conduction path C of the loop grounding wire 4 completes intermediate-frequency signal conduction in the following order: the second signal line 42, the outer loop conduction path 411 (approximately U-shaped), and the third signal line 43. Radiation conduction points 44 are formed at both intersections of the outer loop conduction path 411 and the inner loop conduction path 412. Wireless signal hopping is achieved through these two radiation conduction points 44, allowing the outer loop conduction path 411 to transmit electronic signals without passing through the inner loop conduction path 412.

[0029] The aforementioned signal line 2 is formed in the space surrounded by the lines on both sides of the outer loop conduction path 411 and below the inner loop conduction path 412. The coupling points of the first signal line 22, the second signal line 42, and the third signal line 43 with the grounding area 3 form a coplanar waveguide feed, wherein the first signal line 22 forms a live wire, and the second signal line 42 and the third signal line 43 form a non-live ground wire. The aforementioned antenna signal feed structure employs a symmetrical (or asymmetrical) coplanar waveguide feed method. At the signal input end of the antenna, the loop grounding wire 4 surrounds the signal line 2, thereby increasing the antenna's operating bandwidth.

[0030] The length of the aforementioned signal line 2 is one-quarter wavelength (λ / 4) of the center frequency of the high-frequency band; while the length of the circuit grounding line 4 is one-quarter wavelength (λ / 4) of the center frequency of the low-frequency band.

[0031] The low-frequency operating band of the aforementioned planar monopole loop composite multi-frequency broadband antenna is 2.4–2.5 GHz; the medium-frequency operating band is 5.15–5.85 GHz; and the high-frequency operating band is 5.925–7.125 GHz.

[0032] Please see Figure 4 The diagram shows the impedance matching of the antenna of this invention. In the Wi-Fi signal frequency bands (2.4GHz~2.5GHz, 5.15~7.12GHz), the return loss is below -10dB, which meets the antenna impedance matching characteristics. This proves that it can be applied to Wi-Fi 6E or Wi-Fi 7 wireless electronic devices without causing the problem of return loss (signal being reflected back to the signal source).

[0033] Please refer to Table 1, which shows the 3D radiation efficiency of the antenna of this utility model.

[0034] Table 1

[0035]

[0036] Table 1 above shows the measured values ​​of the antenna of this utility model. It can be seen that within the usable frequency bands of Wi-Fi signals (2.4GHz~2.5GHz, 5.15~7.12GHz), its peak gain ranges from 2.79 to 6.07 dBi, and its efficiency ranges from 48% to 88%, proving... Figure 1 The provided antenna design fully complies with Wi-Fi 6E or Wi-Fi 7 specifications and has good performance.

[0037] Please see again Figures 5-7The figures shown are the antenna current distribution and radiation field patterns of this invention in the 2.45GHz, 5.5GHz, and 6.5GHz frequency bands, respectively. Figure 5 This is a representative diagram of the low-frequency operating band; Figure 6 This is a representative diagram of the intermediate frequency operating band; Figure 7 This is a representative diagram for the intermediate frequency (IF) operating band. The loop ground wire 4 of this invention surrounds the signal line 2 to form a coplanar waveguide feeding-point (CPW) monopole antenna, thus exhibiting dipole antenna characteristics. The upper diagram representing the dipole antenna characteristics shows the power intensity (dB) of electromagnetic wave radiation in the XY-axis plane at an angle of 0° to 360°; the middle diagram shows the power intensity (dB) of electromagnetic wave radiation in the YZ-axis plane at an angle of 0° to 360°; and the lower diagram shows the power intensity (dB) of electromagnetic wave radiation in the ZX-axis plane at an angle of 0° to 360°. The power intensities in the XY-axis, YZ-axis, and ZX-axis planes can all be converted into 3D stereographic figures (not shown in the diagram), and these 3D stereographic figures closely resemble a sphere, indicating that the electromagnetic wave signal of this invention's antenna is extremely stable and without any missing corners (missing corners represent areas where electromagnetic waves cannot radiate, i.e., areas with poor electromagnetic wave signal). Figures 5-7 Overall, the test results show that this invention has good antenna radiation patterns in all operating frequency bands: 2.4–2.5 GHz (low frequency band), 5.15–5.85 GHz (mid frequency band), and 5.925–7.125 GHz (high frequency band).

[0038] The planar monopole loop composite multi-frequency broadband antenna of this invention has the following advantages:

[0039] (1) It can achieve a simple antenna architecture and good performance. The antenna can be materialized using various methods such as planar printed circuit boards, plastic boards or three-dimensional antennas formed by metal wire cutting.
