Fig. 1 exemplarily shows an internal environment of an electronic device based on which the antenna design provided by the present application is based, and the electronic device is illustrated as a mobile phone.

As shown in fig. 1, the electronic device 10 may include: a glass cover plate (cover glass)13, a display screen (display)15, a Printed Circuit Board (PCB), a housing (housing)19 and a rear cover (rear cover) 21.

Wherein, glass apron 13 can hug closely display screen 15 and set up, can mainly used play dustproof effect to the protection of display screen 15.

The printed circuit board PCB17 may be made of flame retardant (FR-4) dielectric board, Rogers (Rogers) dielectric board, or a hybrid of Rogers and FR-4 dielectric board, etc. Here, FR-4 is a code for a grade of flame-resistant material, Rogers dielectric plate a high-frequency plate. The side of the printed circuit board PCB17 adjacent to the housing 19 may be provided with a metal layer that may be formed by etching metal onto the surface of the PCB 17. The metal layer may be used to ground electronic components carried on the printed circuit board PCB17 to prevent electrical shock to a user or damage to equipment. This metal layer may be referred to as a PCB floor. The electronic device 10 may also have other floors for grounding, such as a metal bezel, in addition to the PCB floor.

The electronic device 10 may also include a battery, not shown herein. The battery may be disposed within housing 19, the battery may be divided into a motherboard and a daughter board by PCB17, the motherboard may be disposed between housing 19 and the upper edge of the battery, and the daughter board may be disposed between housing 19 and the lower edge of the battery.

Wherein, the shell 19 mainly plays a supporting role of the whole machine. The housing 19 may include a bezel 11, and the bezel 11 may be formed of a conductive material such as metal. The bezel 11 may extend around the periphery of the electronic device 10 and the display screen 15, and the bezel 11 may specifically surround four sides of the display screen 15 to help secure the display screen 15.

At present, under the architectural design in the electronic device, the layout of the antenna is usually arranged along the inner frame of the electronic device. Typically, the top and bottom edges of the electronic device bezel are primarily used for this purpose. However, in the 5G mobile communication system, a frequency band less than 6GHz (sub-6G) needs to support a multi-input multi-output (MIMO) system of 4X4, which adds at least four antennas compared to the original 4G mobile communication system, and the existing two-region layout becomes very compact. Even if the layout of the antennas working in the frequency band of the 5G mobile communication system is completed in the two areas, most of the antennas working in the frequency band of the 5G mobile communication system can face the risk of performance diving in a use scene of holding by two hands, and the user experience is influenced. Therefore, a new antenna architecture layout in the electronic device is urgently needed, the problem of the layout of the antenna working in the frequency band of the 5G mobile communication system is solved, and the user experience is improved.

Fig. 7 to 9 are schematic views of scenes of a user holding an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present application. Fig. 7 is a schematic diagram of an antenna layout in a two-hand holding scenario. Fig. 8 is a schematic diagram of antenna layout in a portrait left-handed holding scenario. Fig. 9 is a schematic diagram of the antenna layout in a portrait screen right-hand grip scenario.

As shown in fig. 7, the fifth antenna element provided in the fifth area and the sixth antenna element provided in the sixth area are substantially unaffected by the user's hand. It should be understood that in the conventional solution, there is no layout of the third antenna element of the third area and the fourth antenna element of the fourth area. Therefore, the antenna operating in the 5G band can be disposed only in the first region, the second region, the fifth region and the sixth region. When two hands hold the first antenna unit arranged in the first area and the second antenna unit arranged in the second area, the first antenna unit and the second antenna unit are held by the two hands, and the performance loss is large due to the fact that the frequency band of the 5G frequency band is high. And this application embodiment is through setting up third region and fourth region for set up the antenna of work at the 5G frequency channel, under the scene of holding by both hands, the antenna performance of 5G frequency channel has very big improvement, guarantees user's high rate communication experience, promotes electronic equipment's communication competitiveness.

It should be understood that in a scenario of holding by two hands, the electronic device may perform 5G communication through the third antenna unit of the third area and the fourth antenna unit of the fourth area. Meanwhile, at least one antenna unit with better performance can be selected from the antennas which can work in the 5G frequency band and are arranged in the first area, the second area, the fifth area and the sixth area, and the antenna array is formed by the antenna units, the third antenna unit and the fourth antenna unit, so that the requirements of the MIMO system are met. For example, the antenna unit with better radiation performance in the fifth area or the sixth area may be selected as the antenna operating in the 5G frequency band. Or, the antenna elements of the fifth area and the sixth area, and the third antenna element of the third area and the fourth antenna element of the fourth area may be simultaneously selected to form a 4X4 antenna array to speed up data transmission. It should be understood that although the radiation performance of at least one antenna unit in the fifth area or the sixth area is greatly impaired in a scenario where the user holds the antenna units with both hands, the data transmission speed of the antenna units is still increased after the number of the antenna units is increased.

As shown in fig. 7 and 8, the schematic diagram is shown in a scenario where a user holding the electronic device with one hand grips the electronic device with a vertical screen. As shown, the fifth antenna element disposed in the fifth area and the sixth antenna element disposed in the sixth area are affected by the user's hand. It should be understood that in the conventional solution, there is no layout of the third antenna element of the third area and the fourth antenna element of the fourth area. Therefore, the performance of the antenna operating in the 5G band is good only when the antenna is arranged in the first area. Because the first region is also provided with corresponding frequency bands working at 2G, 3G, 4G and WiFi, the layout is compact, and the optimal antenna performance is difficult to obtain. According to the embodiment of the application, the third area and the fourth area are arranged and used for arranging the antenna working at the 5G frequency band, the performance of the antenna working at the 5G frequency band is greatly improved under the scene of holding by one hand, the high-speed communication experience of a user is guaranteed, and the communication competitiveness of the electronic equipment is improved.
