Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional microwave detection antennas face significant interference from nearby electromagnetic radiation frequencies, particularly with the emergence of 5G technology, leading to inaccurate detection results and increased interference across multiple frequency bands, necessitating an enhancement in anti-interference capabilities.

Innovation Solution

The antenna design incorporates a radiating source electrically connected to a reference ground, creating a radiating clearance and lowering impedance to narrow the bandwidth, thereby reducing interference from nearby electromagnetic radiation frequencies and enhancing the anti-interference ability by grounding the radiating source and using a microwave driving circuit with a low impedance to match the antenna's impedance.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If the antenna operates across multiple frequency bands to increase versatility, then adaptability improves, but interference from nearby electromagnetic radiation frequencies increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefrequency band coverageVSAvoidelectromagnetic interference
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the frequency response of the antenna by introducing multiple resonant circuits, each tuned to specific frequency bands. This allows the antenna to selectively process different frequency ranges while maintaining a broad overall bandwidth, thereby reducing interference within each segmented band while preserving versatility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces resonant circuits as intermediary elements between the antenna element and the load. These resonant circuits act as frequency-selective mediators that allow desired frequency bands to pass through while blocking or attenuating interfering frequencies, thus resolving the contradiction between broad adaptability and interference rejection.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If the bandwidth of the antenna is widened to improve versatility, then adaptability improves, but anti-interference ability deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovebandwidthVSAvoidanti-interference ability
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the broad bandwidth into multiple resonant frequency bands using separate resonant circuits. Each resonant circuit is tuned to a specific frequency range, creating segmented frequency response characteristics. This segmentation allows the antenna to maintain wide overall bandwidth while providing narrow, interference-resistant channels within each band.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the electrical parameters (inductance and capacitance values) of multiple resonant circuits to create different resonant frequencies. By adjusting these parameters, the antenna can selectively emphasize or suppress specific frequency bands, thereby maintaining broad adaptability while enhancing anti-interference capability through parameter optimization.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Reliability

If the center point of the radiating source is directly connected to the reference ground to lower impedance, then anti-interference ability improves, but manufacturing precision deteriorates due to soldering defects

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveanti-interference abilityVSAvoidsoldering accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces an intermediary connection structure between the radiating source and the reference ground. Instead of directly soldering the small center point to the ground, the design uses an extended connection point or conductive trace that serves as an intermediary, making the connection more robust and easier to manufacture while maintaining the grounding function.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent extends the connection in a different dimensional direction, creating an extended connection point that protrudes or traces a path rather than being a simple point-to-point solder joint. This dimensional change transforms a precision-critical point connection into a more tolerant trace or extended structure that is easier to manufacture with standard PCB or wiring techniques.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

AI summary

An antenna includes a reference ground and at least a radiating source spacedly disposed at the reference ground to define a radiating clearance between the radiating source and the reference ground, wherein the radiating source is electrically connected to the reference ground to ground the radiating source so as to narrow a bandwidth of the antenna. When a electromagnetic excitation signal is received at a feed point of the radiating source, the bandwidth of the antenna is narrowed down to prevent any interference of the electromagnetic wave signal received or generated by the antenna in response to nearby electromagnetic radiation frequency or stray radiation frequency of the adjacent frequency bands.
