The present application provides an electronic device 1, where the electronic device 1 includes, but is not limited to, devices with communication functions such as a mobile phone, a wristwatch, an internet device (mobile internet device, MID), an electronic book, a portable player station (Play Station Portable, PSP), or a Personal digital assistant (Personal DigitalAssistant, PDA). In one embodiment, the electronic device 1 includes an antenna assembly 20, and the antenna assembly 20 supports a first target frequency band for communication with a satellite. In an embodiment, the electronic device 1 is an electronic device 1 using GPS technology. GPS as referred to herein means positioning, including but not limited to Global positioning System (Global Positioning System, GPS) positioning, beidou positioning, GLONASS positioning, GALILEO positioning, and the like.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 2, fig. 3, and fig. 4 together, fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present application; FIG. 2 is a schematic view of a portion of the structure of the electronic device provided in FIG. 1; FIG. 3 is an equivalent schematic diagram of the first switch circuit of FIG. 2 electrically disconnected from the reference ground;
fig. 4 is an equivalent schematic diagram of the first switch circuit in fig. 2 when electrically connected to the reference ground. The electronic device 1 comprises a reference ground 10 and an antenna assembly 20. The antenna assembly 20 includes a first radiator 210, a feed S, a second radiator 220, and a first switching circuit 230. The first radiator 210 is disposed corresponding to the top of the reference ground 10, and the first radiator 210 has a first end 211, a feeding point P1, and a second end 212. The feed source S is electrically connected to the feeding point P1, and is configured to excite the first radiator 210 to generate a first resonant mode supporting a first target frequency band, where the first resonant mode is a balanced mode of the first radiator 210. The second radiator 220 is disposed corresponding to the reference ground 10, and the second radiator 220 is electrically connected to the reference ground 10. The first switching circuit 230 is electrically connected to the second radiator 220, and the first switching circuit 230 has a first state (see fig. 3) of being electrically disconnected from the reference ground 10, and a second state (see fig. 4) of being electrically connected to the reference ground 10. When the first switch circuit 230 is in the first state, the antenna assembly 20 has a first directivity pattern when supporting the first target frequency band; when the first switch circuit 230 is in the second state, the antenna assembly 20 has a second pattern when supporting the first target frequency band, wherein the second pattern is different from the first pattern.
The electronic device 1 may be a non-foldable electronic device (also referred to as a board machine) or a foldable electronic device. In the schematic diagram of the present embodiment, the electronic device 1 is exemplified as a non-foldable electronic device.
The reference ground 10 may be, but is not limited to, a middle frame of the electronic device 1, or a shielding of a display screen of the electronic device 1, or a battery cover of the electronic device 1, etc.
The first radiator 210 may be a laser direct structuring (Laser Direct Structuring, LDS) radiator, or a flexible circuit board (Flexible Printed Circuit, FPC) radiator, or a printed direct structuring (Print Direct Structuring, PDS) radiator, or a metal stub radiator. When the antenna assembly 20 is applied to the electronic device 1, the first radiator 210 may be a structural antenna (Mechanical DesignAntenna, MDA) radiator designed by using the metal of the insert of the electronic device 1 itself, for example, the first radiator 210 may be an antenna radiator designed by using a middle frame formed by plastic and metal of the electronic device 1. In addition, the first radiator 210 may be a metal frame antenna radiator designed for a metal middle frame. It is to be understood that the shape, configuration and material of the first radiator 210 are not particularly limited.
Neither the first end 211 nor the second end 212 is electrically connected to the reference ground 10, and therefore both the first end 211 and the second end 212 are free ends.
The first target frequency band is a frequency band capable of communicating with a satellite, and the frequency range of the first target frequency band can be, but is not limited to, 1.98 GHz-2.2 GHz. In the description of the range in the embodiment of the present application, the end point value is included. For example, the frequencies of the first target frequency band include an end point value of 1.98GHz and also include an end point value of 2.2GHz. When the range of the first target frequency band is 1.98GHz to 2.2GHz, the first target frequency band may be a frequency band between 1.98GHz and 2.2GHz.
Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic diagram illustrating currents when the antenna assembly in the electronic device shown in fig. 2 supports the first resonant mode. The first resonance mode is a balanced mode of the first radiator 210, i.e. the first resonance mode is a half wavelength mode from the first end 211 to the second end 212. In the schematic diagram of the present embodiment, the resonant current corresponding to the first resonant mode flows from the second end 212 to the first end 211. The direction of the resonant current is shown by the arrow in fig. 5, and it will be understood that the position of the resonant current is located on the first radiator 210, and the position of the arrow in fig. 5 should not be construed as limiting the position of the resonant current on the first radiator 210. It will be appreciated that in the next half-wavelength period, the resonant current corresponding to the first resonant mode flows from the first end 211 to the second end 212.
The first resonant mode is a balanced mode of the first radiator 210, and thus, when the antenna assembly 20 supports the first target frequency band, the antenna assembly has a better upper hemispherical duty cycle. Specifically, if the first resonant mode is a balanced mode of the first radiator 210, the directional diagram when the antenna assembly 20 supports the first target frequency band is directional radiation of radiation toward the top of the electronic device 1, which is beneficial to satellite positioning when the electronic device 1 uses the first target frequency band to communicate with satellites. The illustration will be made later in connection with the simulation diagram.
The second radiator 220 may be a laser direct structuring (Laser Direct Structuring, LDS) radiator, or a flexible circuit board (Flexible Printed Circuit, FPC) radiator, or a printed direct structuring (Print Direct Structuring, PDS) radiator, or a metal stub radiator. When the antenna assembly 20 is applied to the electronic device 1, the second radiator 220 may be a structural antenna (Mechanical DesignAntenna, MDA) radiator designed by using the metal of the insert of the electronic device 1 itself, for example, the second radiator 220 may be an antenna radiator designed by using a middle frame formed by plastic and metal of the electronic device 1. In addition, the second radiator 220 may be a metal frame antenna radiator designed for a metal middle frame. It is to be understood that the shape, configuration and material of the second radiator 220 are not particularly limited. The form of the second radiator 220 may be the same as that of the first radiator 210, or may be different from that of the first radiator 210, which is not limited herein.
Referring to fig. 2, the second radiator 220 has a first connection point P2, one end of the first switch circuit 230 is electrically connected to the first connection point P2, and the other end of the first switch circuit 230 is electrically connected to the reference ground 10. When the first switching circuit 230 is electrically disconnected from the reference ground 10, the second radiator 220 is disconnected through a path electrically connected between the first connection point P2 and the reference ground 10. When the first switching circuit 230 is electrically connected to the reference ground 10, the second radiator 220 may be electrically connected to the reference ground 10 through the first connection point P2. As can be seen from this, when the states of the first switching circuits 230 are different, the connection relationship between the first connection point P2 of the second radiator 220 and the reference ground 10 is different. As can be seen from this, the different states of the first switch circuit 230 result in different connection relationships between the first connection point P2 of the second radiator 220 and the reference ground 10, so that the second radiator 220 has different adjustment effects on the current on the reference ground 10, and thus the antenna assembly 20 supports different patterns in the first target frequency band.
The pattern when the first switch circuit 230 is in the first state and the first switch circuit 230 is in the second state will be described later with reference to a simulation diagram.
In summary, in the antenna assembly 20 of the electronic device 1 provided in the embodiment of the present application, the first resonant mode is the balanced mode of the first radiator 210, and when the antenna assembly 20 supports the first target frequency band, the antenna assembly has a better upper hemispherical duty ratio. In addition, the antenna assembly 20 further includes a second radiator 220 and a first switch circuit 230, the first switch circuit 230 being electrically connected to the second radiator 220 and also electrically connected to the reference ground 10. When the first switch circuit 230 is in a first state of being electrically disconnected from the reference ground 10, the antenna assembly 20 has a first pattern when supporting the first target frequency band; when the first switch circuit 230 is in a second state electrically connected to the reference ground 10, the antenna assembly 20 has a second pattern when supporting the first target frequency band. It follows that by configuring the state of the first switching circuit 230, a reconfiguration of the pattern when the antenna assembly 20 supports the first target frequency band can be achieved. When the antenna assembly 20 of the electronic device 1 is used for communication with a satellite, the state of the first switch circuit 230 can be configured according to different attitudes of the electronic device 1 relative to the satellite, so that the communication with the satellite by using the first target frequency band has better traffic performance.
With further reference to fig. 2, the reference ground 10 includes a top edge 101, a side edge 102, a bottom edge 103, and a connecting edge 104 that are sequentially bent and connected. The first radiator 210 is disposed in correspondence with the top edge 101. The second radiator 220 is disposed corresponding to the side 102. The second radiator 220 includes a third end 221, a first connection point P2, a first ground point G1 and a fourth end 222, the first connection point P2 is electrically connected to the first switch circuit 230 to the reference ground 10, and the first ground point G1 is electrically connected to the reference ground 10 to be grounded.
In the present embodiment, the electronic apparatus 1 is illustrated as an example of a portrait screen state. The top edge 101 is the edge farthest from the ground when the electronic device 1 is in the vertical screen state; the bottom edge 103 is the edge closest to the ground when the electronic equipment 1 is used in a vertical screen; the side 102 and the connecting side 104 are both sides of the electronic device 1 when the electronic device is in use.
In this embodiment, the reference ground 10 is rectangular or similar. In this embodiment, the length of the side edge 102 is greater than the length of the top edge 101, and the length of the side edge 102 is greater than the length of the bottom edge 103; the length of the connecting edge 104 is greater than the length of the bottom edge 103, and the length of the connecting edge 104 is greater than the length of the top edge 101. The length of the top edge 101 is equal or approximately equal to the length of the bottom edge 103. The length of the connecting edge 104 is equal or approximately equal to the length of the side edge 102.
The first radiator 210 is disposed corresponding to the top edge 101, so that the first radiator 210 radiates toward the top of the electronic device 1 in a direction pattern when supporting the first target frequency band.
The second radiator 220 is disposed corresponding to the side 102, and radiates toward the side 102 when the antenna assembly 20 of the electronic device 1 supports the first target frequency band by the action of the first switch circuit 230.
In this embodiment, the first ground point G1 of the second radiator 220 is electrically connected to the reference ground 10 in a manner that the second radiator 220 and the reference ground 10 are integrally formed, but not limited to, the first ground point G1 of the second radiator 220 is electrically connected to the reference ground 10 through a connection branch; alternatively, the first ground point G1 of the second radiator 220 is electrically connected to the reference ground 10 through a matching circuit, wherein the matching circuit may be a zero ohm device; alternatively, the first ground point G1 of the second radiator 220 is electrically connected to the reference ground 10 through conductive paste or conductive wires.
In the present embodiment, the first ground point G1 of the second radiator 220 is electrically connected to the reference ground 10 so as to affect the distribution of the resonant current on the reference ground 10, so that the resonant current on the reference ground 10 is concentrated on the top of the reference ground 10, the current distribution at the bottom of the reference ground 10 is suppressed, and the lateral current (viewing angle) distribution on the reference ground 10 is increased. Thereby increasing the upper hemispherical radiation duty ratio of the antenna assembly 20 when operating in the first target frequency band, increasing the directivity of the antenna assembly 20 when supporting the first target frequency band, and increasing the antenna gain. When the electronic device 1 communicates with the satellite by using the first target frequency band of the antenna assembly 20, the communication effect is better.
Therefore, in the antenna assembly 20 of the electronic device 1 provided in the embodiment of the present application, the first radiator 210 is disposed corresponding to the top edge 101, the second radiator 220 is disposed corresponding to the side edge 102, and the first switch circuit 230 is used to control the antenna assembly 20 to support the first target frequency band, so that the directional diagram is reconfigurable. The antenna assembly 20 is realized to support the radiation of the directional diagram towards the top edge 101 and the radiation of the side edge 102 of the electronic device 1 when the first target frequency band, so that the use requirement of the vertical screen of the electronic device 1 is met, the upper hemispherical radiation duty ratio of the electronic device 1 and the directivity of the antenna under the use scene of the vertical screen are improved, the gain of the circularly polarized antenna is improved, and the user experience is improved.
Referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 is a schematic diagram of a portion of the electronic device in fig. 2. The distance Gap1 from the first ground point G1 to the top edge 101 satisfies the formula (1):
wherein f1 is the working frequency of the first target frequency band εr 1 For the dielectric constant of the medium around the second radiator, a is 0.7 to 1.5. The working frequency of the first target frequency band is generally 1.97GHz-2.2GHz. When the second radiator 220 is wrapped with a medium such as a wrapping layer, the er 1 A dielectric constant that is the encapsulation layer; when the second radiator 220 is exposed to air without a coating layer, the medium surrounding the second radiator 220 is air, and the dielectric constant is 1.
The distance from the first ground point G1 to the top edge 101 satisfies the above formula (1), so that the second radiator 220 has a better adjustment effect on the directional diagram of the first target frequency band.
Referring to fig. 7, fig. 7 is a schematic view of a portion of an electronic device according to another embodiment. The electronic device 1 comprises a reference ground 10 and an antenna assembly 20. The antenna assembly 20 includes a first radiator 210, a feed S, a second radiator 220, and a first switching circuit 230. The first radiator 210 is disposed corresponding to the top of the reference ground 10, and the first radiator 210 has a first end 211, a feeding point P1, and a second end 212. The feed source S is electrically connected to the feeding point P1, and is configured to excite the first radiator 210 to generate a first resonant mode supporting a first target frequency band, where the first resonant mode is a balanced mode of the first radiator 210. The second radiator 220 is disposed corresponding to the reference ground 10, and the second radiator 220 is electrically connected to the reference ground 10. The first switching circuit 230 is electrically connected to the second radiator 220, and the first switching circuit 230 has a first state electrically disconnected from the reference ground 10, and a second state electrically connected to the reference ground 10. When the first switch circuit 230 is in the first state, the antenna assembly 20 has a first directivity pattern when supporting the first target frequency band; when the first switch circuit 230 is in the second state, the antenna assembly 20 has a second pattern when supporting the first target frequency band, wherein the second pattern is different from the first pattern.
The reference ground 10 and the antenna assembly 20 refer to the foregoing descriptions, and are not repeated herein.
In this embodiment, the antenna assembly 20 further includes a third radiator 250 and a second switching circuit 240. The third radiator 250 is disposed corresponding to the connecting edge 104. The second switching circuit 240 is electrically connected to the third radiator 250. The second switching circuit 240 has a third state of being electrically disconnected from the reference ground 10 and a fourth state of being electrically connected to the reference ground 10. Wherein the pattern of the second switch circuit 240 in the fourth state is different from the pattern of the second switch in the fourth state.
