Detailed Description
Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, like numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present application, as detailed in the appended claims.
The scheme provided by the application can be used in a terminal used in daily life, and in a real scene of multi-band application when an antenna in the terminal is designed, for convenience of understanding, some terms and application scenes related to the embodiment of the application are first briefly introduced below.
MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) technology: the method is a technology for performing space diversity by using a plurality of transmitting antennas and receiving antennas at a transmitting end and a receiving end respectively, adopts a discrete multi-antenna, and can decompose a communication link into a plurality of parallel sub-channels, thereby improving the capacity of transmitting or receiving signals.
In daily life, people can use electronic equipment to work, study, entertain, and the like. The user may transmit various data through an antenna in the electronic device, for example, the user may send information such as a picture and a video taken by the user to other electronic devices, or the user may perform a voice call, a video call, and the like with other users through the electronic device to transmit voice data or video data.
Referring to fig. 1, a schematic view of an application scenario of an electronic device for transmitting data according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application is shown. As shown in fig. 1, a number of electronic devices 110 are included.
Alternatively, the electronic device 110 is a terminal to which an antenna designed to transmit signals may be mounted.

In the environment shown in fig. 1, the electronic device needs to operate in various data transmission scenarios, and in order to adapt to data transmission in various frequency bands, an antenna designed in the electronic device may change its operating state accordingly, so as to operate in the corresponding frequency band. For example, the electronic device may use its own metal frame as an antenna, and set up a gap on the metal frame, so as to form a plurality of antennas, and transmit data using the plurality of antennas (may also be regarded as a MIMO antenna).
At present, any one antenna arranged in the electronic device often can meet the requirement of a corresponding resonant frequency band, the resonant frequency band met by the antenna is single, and if the electronic device wants to realize the working modes of multiple resonant frequency bands, different antennas need to be arranged in the electronic device to meet the requirement. Because the space in the electronic equipment is limited, in order to set up different antennas, will bring the occupation to the space of electronic equipment unavoidably, cause the problem that the internal space utilization of electronic equipment is low.
In order to avoid designing redundant antennas in the electronic equipment, reduce the number of the antennas and improve the utilization rate of space in the electronic equipment, the application provides a solution, and the effect of covering multiple frequency bands for the antennas used for transmitting signals in the electronic equipment can be realized under the condition that redundant antenna modules are not arranged.

Optionally, in this application, the length of the first edge 402a of the radiating device 402, which is connected to the metal ground plate 403, may be set to be a quarter of the wavelength of the electromagnetic wave in any one of the first frequency bands (for example, the length of the first edge 402a of the radiating device may be determined by debugging in practical engineering, and the length of the first edge is a quarter of the wavelength of the electromagnetic wave at the operating frequency point of 2.6 GHz), at this time, if the signal input to the coupling device 401 by the signal feeder 405 is a signal in the first frequency band, after the coupling device 401 and the radiating device 402 are coupled to each other, the radiating device 402 may generate a quarter of a resonant frequency band in the first direction.

When the electronic equipment needs to transmit multiple resonant frequency bands, the electronic equipment can also input multiple signals to each coupling device in any antenna module, so that each coupling device is coupled with the radiating device in the antenna module to generate multiple resonant frequency bands, and the effect of transmitting different data through one antenna module is achieved.
In a possible implementation manner, when the electronic device needs to use the first antenna module to send a signal of the inverted F mode resonant frequency band with the first wavelength to the outside, the electronic device may input the signal of the first frequency band, that is, a frequency band signal corresponding to the operating frequency band of 2.55 to 2.65GHz, to the first coupling device in the first antenna module, and the first coupling device and the radiating device in the first antenna module are coupled with each other, so that a quarter-wavelength signal of the inverted F mode resonant frequency band is generated in the radiating device, and is radiated.
Or, when the electronic device needs to send a signal of the resonant frequency band of the offset mode with the second wavelength to the outside by using the first antenna module, the electronic device may input a signal of the first sub-frequency band, that is, a frequency band signal corresponding to the working frequency band of 3.3 to 3.36GHz, to the first coupling device in the first antenna module, and the first coupling device and the radiating device in the first antenna module are coupled with each other to generate a signal of the resonant mode with a half wavelength in the radiating device, so as to radiate the signal.
Or, when the electronic device needs to send a signal of the resonant frequency band of the slot mode with the third wavelength to the outside by using the first antenna module, the electronic device may input a signal of the second sub-frequency band, that is, a frequency band signal corresponding to the working frequency band of 4.89GHz to 5GHz, to the first coupling device in the first antenna module, and the first coupling device and the radiation device in the first antenna module are coupled with each other, so as to generate a signal of the resonant mode with the eighth wavelength in the radiation device, thereby radiating the signal.
In a possible implementation manner, when the electronic device needs to transmit a quarter-wavelength signal of the inverted-F mode resonant frequency band and a half-wavelength signal of the resonant mode, the electronic device may input a first frequency band signal, i.e., a frequency band signal corresponding to the operating frequency band of 2.55 to 2.65GHz, to a first coupling device in a first antenna module, and input a first frequency band signal, i.e., a frequency band signal corresponding to the operating frequency band of 3.3 to 3.36GHz, to a second coupling device in the first antenna module, where the first coupling device is coupled to a radiator in the first antenna module to generate a quarter-wavelength signal of the inverted-F resonant mode in the radiator, and the second coupling device is coupled to a radiator in the first antenna module to generate a half-wavelength signal of the resonant mode in the radiator, thereby radiating both antenna signals. Similarly, the same working mode can be realized for any antenna module in the electronic equipment, so that the electronic equipment does not need to design redundant antennas, and the effect of realizing the radiation of different resonant frequency bands by a single antenna is achieved.
In one possible implementation, an electronic device includes a metal back case; the radiation device in the first antenna module is arranged on the metal rear shell, and the first antenna module is any one of the at least one antenna module. For example, in an electronic device, the metal back case is directly molded on an inner surface thereof by a process such as LDS (Laser Direct Structuring) or PDS (advanced Distribution System). Or, in the electronic device, the flexible circuit board is attached to the inner surface of the metal rear case.
