Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a dual polarized antenna is implemented with separate spaces for vertical and horizontal polarization antennas, then the antenna can provide 5G communication service with both polarizations, but the space occupied by the antenna increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines vertical and horizontal polarization antennas into a single integrated antenna structure. The antenna elements are configured to support both vertical and horizontal polarizations simultaneously, eliminating the need for separate antenna spaces and reducing the overall area occupied by the antenna system.
Solution Approach 2:
The antenna is designed with multi-functionality to provide both vertical and horizontal polarization capabilities through a single structure. The antenna elements can operate in multiple polarization modes, allowing the same physical space to serve dual purposes for different polarization requirements.
2Power
If antennas are mounted in array form for 5G communication, then signal transmission intensity in specific direction is improved, but the space required for mounting increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transitions from traditional planar array mounting to a three-dimensional stacked array configuration. Antenna elements are arranged in multiple layers along the vertical dimension, allowing intensive signal transmission in specific directions while minimizing the horizontal footprint and overall mounting space.

AI summary
An electronic device includes a first conductive plate, a second conductive plate that is spaced from the first conductive plate and is disposed parallel to the first conductive plate, a conductive element that is disposed in a space between the first conductive plate and the second conductive plate, a wireless communication circuit that is electrically connected with the first conductive plate and the conductive element, and a printed circuit board that is coupled with at least one side of the first conductive plate, at least one side of the second conductive plate, and one end of the conductive element. The wireless communication circuit is configured to transmit/receive a first radio frequency (RF) signal having a vertical polarization characteristic using the first conductive plate and the second conductive plate and to transmit/receive a second RF signal having a horizontal polarization characteristic using the conductive element.
