Solution Overview

Problem

The radiation performance of antennas in electronic devices is degraded due to electromagnetic components, such as display screens, which absorb electromagnetic waves and generate radio frequency interference, particularly in devices with curved displays and unstable grounding.

Innovation Solution

The solution involves a dual radiating body structure where a first radiating body is positioned further from electromagnetic components and a second radiating body is closer to the frame, with a specific capacitive coupling and spacing to minimize interference and enhance radiation performance.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a touch screen display device is provided with a relatively large number of keys, then the functionality and user interaction capabilities are improved, but the size of the device increases and portability deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovefunctionalityVSAvoiddevice size
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSVolume of moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The device is divided into a main body and a separate keyboard unit connected via wireless communication. The main body contains the display screen and core processing components, while the keyboard unit contains the keys and input mechanisms. This segmentation allows the display device to remain compact and portable while the separate keyboard provides extensive input functionality when needed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The keyboard functionality is separated from the two-dimensional display plane and implemented as a distinct spatial unit that can be physically detached and repositioned. This dimensional separation allows the display device to maintain a compact form factor while providing access to a full keyboard through a separate unit that connects via wireless communication.

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

2Ease of operation

If a keyboard is integrated with the touch screen display, then input capabilities are improved, but the design flexibility and form factor options are reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinput capabilitiesVSAvoiddesign flexibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The keyboard connection is made dynamic and adjustable rather than fixed. The keyboard unit can be wirelessly connected when keyboard input is needed, and disconnected or repositioned when not needed. This dynamic configuration allows the device to adapt between different usage modes (touch-only vs. keyboard-assisted input) and maintains design flexibility for various form factors.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The separate keyboard unit serves multiple functions: it provides physical keyboard input, can function as a protective cover for the display, and offers wireless connectivity options. This multi-functional design allows the same keyboard unit to serve different purposes depending on user needs, thereby maintaining design flexibility while enhancing input capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Volume of moving object

If keys are arranged in a compact manner, then device size is reduced, but key size decreases and typing comfort deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedevice sizeVSAvoidtyping comfort
Core Design Contradiction:
Volume of moving objectVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The keyboard is segmented into a separate unit with its own independent layout optimization. This allows the keyboard to be designed with standard or even enlarged key sizes for typing comfort, while the main display device remains compact. The segmentation decouples the size constraints of the display from the ergonomic requirements of the keyboard.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

4Adaptability or versatility

If more keys are added to provide comprehensive input options, then functionality is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinput optionsVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The device architecture is segmented into modular components: a compact main body with display and processing, and a separate keyboard unit with input mechanisms. This segmentation allows comprehensive input options to be provided through the optional keyboard attachment without permanently increasing the complexity of the main display device. The keyboard unit independently houses all necessary input components.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

Wireless communication technology serves as an intermediary between the keyboard unit and the main display device. This intermediary enables comprehensive input functionality to be transmitted to the display device without requiring direct physical integration or complex wiring, thereby reducing overall device complexity while maintaining versatile input options.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
