The coupling antenna generates high frequency through the first radiation arm, then adjusts the size of the first radiation arm and the size of the first gap between the first radiation arm and the ground unit to adjust the impedance matching of the high frequency band (5.15GHz-5.85GHz), and further tunes the resonant frequency. The second radiation arm generates low frequency, and the size of the second radiation arm and the size of the second gap are adjusted to adjust the impedance matching of the low frequency band (2.4GHz-2.5GHz), and further tune the resonant frequency. However, the above-mentioned scheme still has the following three problems:

[0004] (1) The above-mentioned scheme adjusts the frequency by adjusting the distance between the radiation arm and the gap. Since the radiation body, the ground unit and the parasitic unit are metal patches formed by laser or printing on the dielectric substrate, if other frequency antennas are needed, a new material number needs to be established to re-form the antenna, and if multiple frequency antennas need to be tested, multiple frequency antennas need to be formed, which will increase the production cost.

[0005] (2) Moreover, the above-mentioned scheme can only realize the impedance matching of the high frequency band (5.15GHz-5.85GHz) and the low frequency band (2.4GHz-2.5GHz), and cannot realize the low frequency band below 2.4GHz.

[0006] (3) The structure of the radiation body, the ground unit and the parasitic unit in the above-mentioned scheme is complex, which is not convenient for welding and printing, and will increase the molding difficulty and production cost.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] Embodiment one:

[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 The embodiment is a coupling antenna 100 with the frequency adjustment function, and the coupling antenna 100 with the frequency adjustment function comprises a substrate 1, a ground unit 2 and a radiation unit 3 arranged on the substrate 1, and a frequency adjustment element 4 arranged on the radiation unit 3 and used for adjusting the frequency of the coupling antenna. The ground unit 2 is provided with a grounding point 7, the radiation unit 3 is provided with a feeding point 8, a first gap 5 for coupling feeding is arranged between the ground unit 2 and the radiation unit 3, a second gap 6 for coupling feeding is arranged on the radiation unit 3, and the frequency of the coupling antenna can be adjusted by adjusting the frequency adjustment element 4.

[0029] The ground unit 2 and the radiation unit 3 are metal patches formed on the substrate 1 by laser direct structuring or printing, and have a small thickness and a simple forming process, thus reducing production cost.

[0030] In this embodiment, the ground unit 2 and the radiation unit 3 are arranged on the same surface of the substrate 1, thus reducing the thickness of the coupled antenna and being suitable for thin design. In this embodiment, the periphery of the ground unit 2 and the radiation unit 3 is close to the edge of the substrate 1, thus reducing the size of the coupled antenna as much as possible.

[0031] In this embodiment, the ground unit 2 and the radiation unit 3 are rectangular patches arranged opposite to each other, and the first gap 5 is located in the middle of the ground unit 2 and the radiation unit 3. The ground unit 2 and the radiation unit 3 not only have a simple structure, but also have a simple layout, thus facilitating welding and printing forming and reducing the difficulty of forming and the production cost.

[0032] In this embodiment, the grounding point 7 is located at the lower right corner of the ground unit 2, and the feeding point 8 is located at the lower left corner of the radiation unit 3. Therefore, the grounding point 7 and the feeding point 8 are arranged opposite to each other and located on both sides of the first gap 5, and the grounding point 7 and the feeding point 8 are adjacent to each other, thus facilitating the connection of other wires.

[0033] In other embodiments, the positions of the grounding point 7 and the feeding point 8 can be adjusted according to actual conditions, and thus the specific positions of the grounding point 7 and the feeding point 8 are not limited herein.

[0034] In this embodiment, the second gap 6 is designed as a U-shaped gap with an opening to the left. The second gap 6 includes a first section gap 61 extending horizontally to the right from the left side of the radiation unit 3, a second section gap 62 extending vertically upward from the first section gap 61, and a third section gap 63 extending horizontally to the left from the second section gap 62. The right end of the first section gap 61 is located inside the radiation unit 3, the upper and lower ends of the second section gap 62 are located inside the radiation unit 3, and the left end of the third section gap 63 is located inside the radiation unit 3. The specific sizes of the radiation unit 3, the first section gap 61, the second section gap 62, and the third section gap 63 are adjusted according to the design principle of the antenna, and thus are not limited herein. In actual application, the coupled amount obtained by the second gap 6 designed in this way can obtain an antenna with a low frequency, such as a commonly used 868MHz frequency or other low frequency bands (0-2.4GHz).

[0035] In other embodiments, the sizes of the first section gap 61, the second section gap 62, and the third section gap 63 can be adjusted to change the coupled amount, thus obtaining an antenna with other frequency bands.

[0036] In another embodiment, the structure of the second slot 6 can be redesigned according to the frequency band actually needed, the coupling amount is changed by changing the structure of the second slot 6, so that the antenna of other frequency bands is obtained.

[0037] The frequency of the coupled antenna is changed by welding the frequency adjusting element 4 on the radiating unit 3, and the adjustment of the frequency of the coupled antenna can be realized by adjusting the frequency adjusting element 4. Specifically, the adjustment of the frequency of the coupled antenna can be realized by adjusting the parameters and position of the frequency adjusting element 4, or directly adjusting the type of the frequency adjusting element 4.

[0038] In this embodiment, if the frequency of the coupled antenna is 868MHz, a 0Ω resistor can be welded on the radiating unit 3 to obtain a coupled antenna with a frequency of 915MHz. At this time, the 0Ω resistor is located on the radiating unit 3 at the position of the third section slot 63, and the soldering pads for welding the resistor are arranged on the radiating unit 3 on both sides of the third section slot 63. If other low frequency bands (0-2.4GHz) are needed, for example, 1.6GHz or 2.4GHz, the resistance value of the resistor can be changed to achieve the desired frequency, or the position of the resistor can be changed. This is set according to the actual situation. Of course, a plurality of soldering pads can be arranged at different positions of the radiating unit 3 to facilitate welding of the resistor at different positions of the radiating unit. Compared with the prior art, the antenna of multiple other frequencies does not need to be reshaped. Only the original resistor needs to be de-soldered and re-soldered with a resistor of a different resistance value or the position of the resistor needs to be changed to change the frequency of the antenna. This facilitates testing of multiple frequency antennas, improves testing efficiency, and saves costs.

[0039] In other embodiments, the frequency adjusting element 4 can be a capacitor or an inductor. The specific parameters or positions of the inductor or capacitor can be adjusted to adjust the frequency of the coupled antenna. Correspondingly, a plurality of soldering pads can be arranged at different positions of the radiating unit 3 to facilitate welding of the capacitor or inductor at different positions of the radiating unit to adjust the frequency of the coupled antenna. This facilitates testing of multiple frequency antennas, improves testing efficiency, and saves costs.

[0040] Embodiment two:

[0041] In this embodiment, the ground unit 2 and the radiating unit 3 are arranged on different surfaces of the substrate 1, which can reduce the size of the coupled antenna and is suitable for miniaturized design.

[0042] In this embodiment, the ground unit 2, the radiating unit 3, the first slot 5, and the second slot 6 can be adjusted according to the required frequency band. The type, parameter value, and position of the frequency adjusting element 4 can be set according to the actual situation, which is not limited herein.

[0043] The above merely describes some embodiments of the present application. For those skilled in the art, without departing from the inventive concept, several modifications and improvements can be made, which are all within the protection scope of the present application.
