Example one
As shown in fig. 3, an antenna structure 300 according to an embodiment of the present invention is provided, where the antenna structure 300 includes a first antenna module 310, a second antenna module 320, a radio frequency switch module 330, and a first enhanced Type-C interface device 340, the first antenna module 310 and the radio frequency switch module 330 are disposed in a terminal 400, and an original Type-C interface device of the terminal 400 is replaced with the first enhanced Type-C interface device 340; the rf switch module 330 includes two input terminals 331, an output terminal 332 and a control terminal 333, wherein one input terminal 331 is connected to the first antenna module 310, the other input terminal 331 is externally connected to the second antenna module 320 through the first enhanced Type-C interface device 340, the output terminal 332 is connected to the rf module 410 of the connection terminal 400, and the control terminal is connected to the terminal CPU420 of the connection terminal 400.
In the present embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, the first enhanced Type-C interface device 340 is different from the original Type-C interface device of the terminal 400 in that a first rf signal line terminal 341 is added on the basis of the existing terminal of the original Type-C interface device, and the first rf signal line terminal 341 is connected to an input end 331 of the rf switch module 330 for transmitting rf signals therebetween. In addition, a GPIO terminal 342 for detecting whether the second antenna module 320 is connected is added on the basis of the existing terminal, at this time, the terminal CPU420 includes a GPIO signal output pin 421 and a GPIO signal input pin 422, the GPIO signal output pin 421 is connected to the control terminal 333 of the radio frequency switch module 330, and the GPIO signal input pin 422 is connected to the GPIO terminal 342. In this way, the terminal CPU420 controls the rf switch module 330 through the GPIO signal to select whether to use the internal first antenna module 310 or the external second antenna module 320.
As shown in fig. 3, the rf switch module 330 in this embodiment employs a high power SP2T rf switch, which has high power and high voltage endurance to pass rf signals. The second antenna module 320 includes a second enhanced Type-C interface 321 and an antenna body 322, and the second enhanced Type-C interface 321 is connected to the antenna body 322. Corresponding to the structure of the first enhanced Type-C interface device 340, a second rf signal line terminal 3211 is added on the basis of the existing terminal of the original Type-C interface device, and the second rf signal line terminal 3211 is connected to the antenna body 322 for transmitting rf signals therebetween. In addition, a ground pull-down terminal 3212 provided corresponding to the GPIO terminal 342 is added to the existing terminal, and the ground pull-down terminal 3212 is provided to be grounded.

If the second antenna module 320 is selected to be used, the terminal CPU420 controls the rf switch module 330 through the GPIO signal so that the rf signal is switched from the built-in first antenna module 310 to the external second antenna module 320, thereby completing the antenna switching. When the second antenna module 320 is pulled out, since the GPIO terminal 342 of the first enhanced Type-C interface device 340 is floating at a high potential, the terminal CPU420 recognizes that the second antenna module 320 is pulled out, and the terminal CPU420 controls the radio frequency switch module 330 through the GPIO signal, so that the radio frequency signal is switched to the first antenna module 310.
