Example 2 the antenna impedance bandwidth (VSWR <2) was 1.5GHz-2.36GHz and 3.02GHz-3.96GHz, narrowing the impedance bandwidth. Although the notch characteristic is generated in the frequency band of 2.36GHz-3.02GHz, the frequency band greatly exceeds the communication frequency band of 2.408GHz-2.440GHz of the multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle, and waste of a certain frequency band is caused. Example 3 antenna impedance bandwidths (VSWR <2) of 2.01GHz-2.26GHz and 3.63GHz-4.2GHz, the impedance bandwidths were further narrowed, but still produced notch characteristics at 2.408GHz-2.440GHz, the multi-rotor drone communication band. Therefore, the metal parasitic cylinder 3, the short-circuit cylinder 5 and the coupling patch 8 improve the impedance matching of the antenna and improve the impedance bandwidth of the antenna.

Referring to fig. 7, the length L4 of the top coupling patch 8 is different in examples 1, 7 and 8, and the comparison results show that the center resonance point of the notch is shifted to a low frequency when the value of L4 is from 30mm to 40 mm.

Referring to fig. 8, the antenna of example 1 has an impedance bandwidth (VSWR <2) of 2.03GHz to 4.01GHz and a relative bandwidth of 65.56%, and generates a notch at 2.408GHz to 2.440GHz of the communication band of the multi-rotor drone, resulting in ideal results.

Referring to fig. 9-14, example 1 has radiation patterns at 2.16GHz, 3.02GHz, and 3.70 GHz. On a Theta = 30-degree plane, the main polarization gain is about 5dBi, the cross polarization gain is lower than-15 dBi, and the radiation pattern has omnidirectional characteristic, and the out-of-roundness is less than 3 dB; at the plane xoz, the radiation pattern appears as a cone beam, but as the frequency increases, higher order modes interfere and the radiation pattern produces lobes.

Referring to fig. 15, the gain of the antenna in embodiment 1 is maintained between 3.5dBi and 5.5dBi, and drops sharply in the range of 2.23GHz to 2.45GHz of the notch frequency band, so that the multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle can fly normally while the antenna works normally.

The above simulation result shows, the utility model discloses the antenna has the impedance bandwidth of ideal, has solved many rotor unmanned aerial vehicle flight path to the orientation measurement accuracy influence, has produced the trapped wave characteristic of ideal simultaneously, has solved the problem that antenna work and many rotor unmanned aerial vehicle communication signal disturbed each other.
