Please refer to fig. 2A and 2B for the detailed structure of the antenna unit 160. Fig. 2A is a schematic diagram of an antenna unit 160 according to an embodiment of the invention. Specifically, fig. 2A is a schematic diagram of the antenna unit 160 on the right side in fig. 1A as viewed from the direction of the section line B-B'. The length × width × height dimensions of the antenna unit 160 are, for example, 45mm × 14.5mm × 5mm, and it has a dielectric member 162. The dielectric member 162 is a cube, and has six faces, such as a first face P1, a second face P2, a third face P3, a fourth face P4, a fifth face P5, and a sixth face P6. The first plane P1 and the fourth plane P4 are opposite and vertically adjacent to the second plane P2, the third plane P3, the fifth plane P5 and the sixth plane P6, respectively. The second plane P2 is opposite to the third plane P3, and the fifth plane P5 is opposite to the sixth plane P6. Thus, the dielectric member 162 forms a resonant cavity.
Fig. 2B is a six-sided expanded view of the antenna unit 160 of the embodiment of fig. 2A. In fig. 2B, the dielectric member 162 of the antenna unit 160 includes a first metal portion M1, a second metal portion M2, a third metal portion M3, a fourth metal portion M4 and a fifth metal portion M5. First metal portion M1, second metal portion M2, third metal portion M3, fourth metal portion M4, and fifth metal portion M5 are conductive materials such as copper foil. In the electronic device 100, the first metal portion M1 of the antenna unit 160 is disposed facing outward, i.e., facing the body edge 144. It should be understood that, in this embodiment, the electronic device 100 has two antenna units 160, wherein the first metal portions M1 of the two antenna units 160 face the body edge 144. Specifically, the two antenna units 160 of the electronic device 100 are arranged in a mirror-symmetrical manner, for example.
First metal portion M1 is disposed on first plane P1. The first metal portion M1 has a size of 32mm × 4mm, for example. The first metal part M1 is loop-shaped and has a first slot S1. The first slot S1 is between points D1, D2, and has a width w1 of, for example, 2mm and a length w2 of, for example, 25 mm. In addition, a feeding terminal F1 is provided at about the middle of the upper half of the first metal part M1, and the feeding terminal F1 is used to connect the signal positive terminal of the coaxial transmission line (not shown) to couple with the wireless signal generator, and thus perform the transceiving of the antenna signal.
The second metal part M2 is disposed on the second plane P2 and electrically contacts the top case 130 of the main body 120 through the aforementioned conventional conductive cloth to be further grounded. The second metal part M2 substantially spreads over the second plane P2. The second metal portion M2 and the first metal portion M1 have a second slot S2 therebetween, and the second slot S2 is located on the first plane P1. The second slot S2 is between points D3, D4 and has a width w3 of, for example, 1mm and a length w4 of, for example, 32 mm.
The third metal part M3 is disposed on the third face P3 and electrically contacts the bottom case 140 of the main body 120 through the aforementioned conventional conductive cloth to further ground. The third metal part M3 substantially covers the third face P3. Third metal segment M3 is connected to a portion of first metal segment M1. In the figure, a grounding terminal G1 is disposed at a position above the middle of the third metal portion M3, and the grounding terminal G1 is connected to the negative terminal of the coaxial transmission line for coupling to the signal negative terminal of the wireless signal generator and the system ground plane. In addition, a third slot S3 is formed between the third metal part M3 and the first metal part M1, and the third slot S3 is located on the third face P3. The third slot S3 is between points D5 and D6, and has a width w5 of, for example, 1mm and a length w6 of, for example, 12 mm.
The fourth metal portion M4 is disposed on the fourth face P4, and substantially covers the fourth face P4. Fourth metal segment M4 is connected to second metal segment M2, third metal segment M3, and fifth metal segment M5 in the perspective view of fig. 2A. Wherein the fourth metal portion M4, the first metal portion M1, the second metal portion M2 and the third metal portion M3 surround the fourth slot S4. The fourth slot S4 is located in the first plane P1 and the sixth plane P6 and is between points D3 and D7 as shown. The width of the fourth slot S4 is 5mm, and the length w7 is 19.5 mm.
The fifth metal part M5 is disposed on the fifth plane P5, and has a size of 7.5mm × 5mm, for example. Fifth metal portion M5 is connected to second metal portion M2, third metal portion M3, and fourth metal portion M4 in the perspective view of fig. 2A, wherein fifth metal portion M5 and first metal portion M1, second metal portion M2, and third metal portion M3 surround fifth slot S5. The fifth slot S5 is located in the first plane P1 and the fifth plane P5 between points D4 and D8 as shown. The width of the fifth slot S5 is 5mm, and the length w8 is 8 mm.
The second metal portion M2 and the third metal portion M3 attached to the surface of the dielectric element 162 form a resonant cavity, i.e., the dielectric element 162 is substantially a signal resonant cavity. Therefore, a signal is fed into the first metal part M1, the second metal part M2 and the third metal part M3 through the feeding terminal F1 and resonates with the resonant cavity to generate a dual-band antenna resonant frequency band of the first antenna resonant frequency band and the second antenna resonant frequency band. In addition to the configuration of the fourth metal part M4 and the fifth metal part M5, and the capacitive coupling effect of the first slit S1 to the fifth slit S5 between the metal parts, the antenna unit 160 can resonate out a first antenna resonant frequency band, such as Wi-Fi2.4GHz, and a second antenna resonant frequency band, such as Wi-Fi5 GHz.
Specifically, the first antenna resonant frequency band is generated by coupling resonance of the first metal part M1 and the surrounding second, third, fourth and fifth slots S2, S3, S4 and S5, and the sizes (w 3-w 8) of the second, third, fourth and fifth slots S2, S3, S4 and S5 are related to the frequency and impedance matching of the first antenna resonant frequency band. Therefore, by adjusting the sizes/coupling amounts of the second, third, fourth and fifth slots S2, S3, S4 and S5, the antenna characteristics of Wi-Fi2.4GHz can be changed.
The second antenna resonant frequency band is generated by coupling resonance in the form of a slot antenna (slot antenna) of the first metal part M1 with the first slot S1 therein, and the size (w1, w2) of the first slot S1 is related to the frequency and impedance matching of the second antenna resonant frequency band. Therefore, by adjusting the size/coupling of the first slot S1, the Wi-Fi5GHz antenna characteristics may be changed. Further, the antenna unit 160 is radiated through, for example, a heat radiation hole at the body edge 144 facing the first metal part M1 or a sound output hole of an acoustic device to perform transmission and reception of a wireless communication signal.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the antenna unit 160 in the electronic device 100 may further be combined with other electronic components to save the internal space of the electronic device 100, so that the overall appearance can be further reduced. Please refer to fig. 3A, which is a schematic diagram of an antenna unit 360 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The antenna unit 360 has a dielectric member 362 and is divided into a first half H1 and a second half H2 by a center line L1. The second half H2 is substantially the same as the antenna unit 160, i.e., the first metal portion M1 to the fifth metal portion M5 are attached to the surface of the second half H2. Thus, antenna element 360 may be considered to be antenna element 160 extending further out of first half H1. For the detailed structure of the second half H2, the antenna unit 160 is described above.
In FIG. 3A, the first half H1 has a cutout T1, and the cutout T1 can be used to mount electronic components such as a sound box. In this embodiment, a sixth metal portion M6 is laid in the groove T1. Please refer to fig. 3B, which is a six-sided expanded view of the antenna unit 360 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The pattern of the second half H2 (first metal portion M1 to fifth metal portion M5) is the same as that of fig. 2B. It should be noted that the third metal portion M3 of the second half H2 extends from the third face P3 to the first half H1, and the fourth metal portion M4 of the second half H2 extends from the fourth face P4 to the first half H1, as shown in the figure. In addition, the sixth plane P6 of the antenna unit 360 further includes a third minor metal part M31. Third metal segment M31 is connected to third metal segment M3, fourth metal segment M4 and sixth metal segment M6 in the perspective view of fig. 3A.
The sixth metal portion M6 is located between the points D9 and D10, and is electrically connected to the fourth metal portion M4 of the fourth face P4 in the perspective view of fig. 3A, and is electrically connected to the third metal portion M3 of the third face P3 through the third metal portion M31 of the sixth face P6. Generally, the electronic component usually has a metal element or material, and by laying the sixth metal portion M6 inside the cutout T1, the influence of the electronic component mounted in the cutout T1 on the antenna unit 360 can be reduced, so that the antenna efficiency of the antenna unit 360 is improved.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the sixth metal portion M6 may not be laid inside the groove T1 of the antenna unit 360. Please refer to fig. 4A, which is a schematic diagram of an antenna unit 460 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The antenna element 460, together with the antenna element 360, has a dielectric 462 and is divided into a first half H1 and a second half H2 substantially along a center line L1, and the second half H2 is substantially identical to the antenna element 160. In addition, in FIG. 4A, the first half H1 also has a slot T1. In the embodiment of the antenna unit 460, the difference from the antenna unit 360 is that the sixth metal portion M6 is not laid in the groove T1, but a seventh metal portion M7 is laid on the outer side surface of the first half H1.
Fig. 4B is a six-sided expanded view of an antenna unit 460 according to an embodiment of the invention. The pattern of the second half H2 (i.e. first metal portion M1 to fifth metal portion M5) is the same as that of fig. 2B. While the third metal portion M3 of the second half H2 extends to the first half H1 to fill the third face P3 and the fourth metal portion M4 of the second half H2 extends to the first half H1 to fill the fourth face P4, as shown.
Seventh metal portion M7 is disposed on first plane P1 and sixth plane P6 and located in first half H1. The seventh metal portion M7 is between points D11 and D12. In the perspective view of fig. 4A, the seventh metal portion M7 is electrically connected to the third metal portion M3 and the fourth metal portion M4. By laying the seventh metal portion M7 on the first plane P1 and the sixth plane P6 such that the cutout T1 is surrounded among the third metal portion M3, the fourth metal portion M4, and the seventh metal portion M7, the influence of the electronic components mounted in the cutout T1 on the antenna unit 460 can be reduced, and the antenna efficiency of the antenna unit 460 can be improved.
Fig. 5A is a graph of the antenna Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) versus frequency for the antenna units 160, 360, 460 according to an embodiment of the invention. Here, the ordinate unit of fig. 5A is VSWR, and the abscissa unit is frequency (MHz). Curves 510A, 520A, 530A in fig. 5A are curves of standing wave ratio of antenna voltage versus frequency for the antenna units 160, 360, 460, respectively. As can be seen in fig. 5A, the VSWR of the antenna units 160, 360, 460 at, for example, Wi-Fi2.4GHz and Wi-Fi5GHz approaches 1, showing good impedance matching.
Next, fig. 5B is a graph of antenna efficiency versus frequency for the antenna units 160, 360, 460 according to an embodiment of the invention. Specifically, fig. 5A shows a graph of antenna efficiency versus frequency for antenna elements 160, 360, 460 when placed adjacent to an electronic component, such as a speaker, that is placed in a cutout T1 of antenna elements 360, 460. The ordinate of fig. 5A is in antenna efficiency (dB) and the abscissa is in frequency (MHz). Curves 510B, 520B, 530B in fig. 5B are sequentially plots of antenna efficiency versus frequency for antenna units 160, 360, 460, respectively. As can be understood from fig. 5B, the antenna units 360 and 460 are copper-plated inside or outside the respective slots T1, which improves the antenna efficiency to between-4 dB and-5.5 dB compared to the antenna unit 160 without the slot T1 and copper-plated (the sixth metal portion M6 or the seventh metal portion M7).
Fig. 6A is a graph of Isolation (Isolation) versus frequency of two antenna elements 360 in the electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the invention. In this example, the distance between the two positions 150 of the electronic device 100 is about 60mm, that is, the two antenna units 360 are about 60mm apart from each other. The unit of the ordinate of fig. 6A is isolation (dB) and the unit of the abscissa is frequency (MHz), and the curve 610 shows the isolation between the antenna elements 360 on both sides. As can be seen from the figure, the isolation of the antenna elements 360 on both sides is lower than-10 dB at both low and high frequencies, and has good isolation.
Fig. 6B is a graph of antenna efficiency versus frequency for the two antenna units 360 of the electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the invention. Where the ordinate of fig. 6B is in antenna efficiency (dB) and the abscissa is in frequency (MHz), and the curves 610B, 620B represent the antenna efficiency plots for the left antenna element 360 and the right antenna element 360, respectively. In the case where the antenna unit 360 of the present disclosure is practically applied to the electronic device 100, the antenna efficiency of the two antenna units 360 is-4 dB to-5.5 dB at, for example, Wi-Fi2.4GHz, and-4 dB to-7.5 dB at, for example, Wi-Fi5 GHz.
As mentioned above, when the electronic device 100 has two antenna units, the first metal portions M1 of each antenna unit face the body edge 144 and are arranged in a mirror symmetry manner, as shown in fig. 7, which is a schematic cross-sectional view of the electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, FIG. 7 shows a cross-section of the electronic device 100 of FIG. 1A along the cross-sectional line B-B'. The antenna unit 460 is taken as an example for explanation in this embodiment. As can be seen from the figure, the first metal portions M1 of the two antenna units 460 all face in the same direction (facing the body edge 144), and the two antenna units 460 are mirror-symmetrical to each other with respect to the center line L2 in the electronic device 100.
As described above, the electronic device and the antenna unit thereof disclosed in the embodiments of the present invention realize a technology that can still maintain good antenna performance under a full metal housing structure, and by integrally disposing the antenna unit and part of components of the electronic device, the occupation of the internal space of the electronic device can be reduced, so that the internal space of the electronic device can be more flexibly utilized, and the external appearance volume of the electronic device can be further reduced.
Although the present invention has been described with reference to the above embodiments, it should be understood that various changes and modifications can be made therein by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
