Definitions

  • the invention relates to antennas made according to the technique of pellets.
  • Such an antenna is typically used in a spectral domain including radio frequencies and microwave frequencies and more particularly in the GSM, DCS, PCS and UMTS bands.
  • antennas have a resonance frequency band. In transmission, when the antennas are excited in this frequency band by a power line, they maintain stationary electromagnetic waves. These standing waves are then coupled to electromagnetic waves radiated in space. In reception, the waves take the same forms but make the path in the opposite direction.
  • Various antennas of this type are known in the state of the art.
  • microstrips on a plane as an antenna for transmitting signals.
  • Conductive pads are disposed on the upper face of a dielectric substrate and a conductive layer is placed on the underside of the substrate. This conductive layer then serves as a ground plane.
  • the substrate typically has a rectangular planar shape and constant thickness.
  • a multi-band antenna is also described in the document FR-A-2,772,518 .
  • This antenna comprises a flat patch disposed on the upper surface of a dielectric substrate.
  • a ground layer is disposed on the lower surface of the dielectric substrate.
  • This antenna is of the quarter-wave type because a short-circuit conductor disposed on a wafer of the dielectric substrate connects the wafer to the ground layer.
  • This antenna has connection conductors for transmitting signals between the antenna and a signal processing device.
  • This antenna has three pellets placed on the upper surface of a substrate Styrofoam (trademark).
  • a ground layer is placed on the lower surface of the dielectric substrate.
  • a first pad for the low band is joined to a second pad for the high band.
  • These two pellets thus form a first bi-bonde element having a zigzag shape and comprising a feed.
  • This dual band element has a short circuit in the form of a junction with the ground layer.
  • a third pellet is positioned next to the second pellet to obtain a double resonance in the high bung, with an enlarged bandwidth.
  • the third pellet has a short circuit in the form of a junction with the ground.
  • the document US-A-4,766,440 describes an antenna having two half-wave resonances.
  • This antenna comprises a rectangular pellet, in which the resonance paths are established respectively in the width and the length of the pellet.
  • a U-shaped slit is formed in the pellet and does not reach the edges of this pellet.
  • the chip is connected to a coupling device provided with impedance transformation means. This impedance transformation makes it possible to adapt the coupling device to the different resonance frequencies used.
  • the document US-A-4 771291 describes an antenna having a pellet. This pellet has punctual short-circuits and straight slots formed in the pellet and not reaching the edges of this pellet.
  • Requirement WO 0036700 A discloses an antenna having a conductive patch with two sinuous slots, a ground, a supply link, a short circuit link connecting the patch to ground.
  • Double Bond Cavity-Bocked Quarter-wave patch antenna describes an antenna with quarter-wave resonances.
  • a first resonance is defined by the dimensions and characteristics of the pellet and the substrate.
  • a second resonance is obtained by using an adaptation system.
  • antennas have disadvantages. They require, on the one hand, large flat tablets that are incompatible with the small dimensions of the housings of mobile communication devices. In addition, these antennas require the mounting of capacitive loads to expand the bandwidth which increases the cost and complexity of the antenna. In addition, these antennas have a reduced plug width, especially in the frequency bung dedicated to UMTS.
  • These antennas are more expensive and have a low transmission or reception efficiency. These antennas also do not allow to easily adjust the resonant frequencies and the bung widths of these frequencies.
  • the invention thus relates to an antenna comprising a conductive pad having two sinuous slots, a ground, a short-circuit connection, connecting the pellet to the ground, a supply link connected to the pellet, the antenna having a diagram of radiation comprising a primary resonance band including frequencies between 1950 MHz and 2100 MHz and a width greater than 20%, the radiation pattern having a secondary resonance band including frequencies between 890 MHz and 950 MHz and a width greater than 10%, the chip containing a polygonal shape, the slots opening on the same edge of the chip, characterized in that the short-circuit connection is connected to the chip by the edge on which the slots open or by an adjacent edge.
  • the supply link is connected to the pellet by the edge on which the slots open or by an adjacent edge.
  • the supply and the short-circuit connection are arranged on either side of at least one of the slots.
  • a slot has a contour of length different from the length of the contour of the other slot.
  • the invention also relates to an antenna in which the difference in length between the contour of the slots is between 5 and 30%.
  • the mass is a conductive surface parallel to the surface of the pellet.
  • the distance between the slots is between 5 and 15mm.
  • the pellet is formed of a metal sheet.
  • the slots have substantially the same shape and the same orientation.
  • the slots have substantially the same shape and an opposite orientation.
  • the invention also relates to a radio communication apparatus comprising an antenna according to the invention.
  • the invention provides an antenna in which there are two sinuous slots coupled on a conductive pad.
  • the antenna has a radiation pattern with a resonance band of width greater than 20%. This resonance band typically covers several bungs of transmission frequencies, for example DCS, PCS and UMTS.
  • the following antenna will be described in its transmitter operation, in which it transforms an electric current into an electromagnetic field. It will be clear to one skilled in the art that the operation of the receiver antenna is similar, an electromagnetic field being transformed into electric current by the antenna.
  • the cut-off frequencies at -6 dB are determined on the measurement curve of the reflection coefficient of the antenna.
  • the resonance frequency range is determined by subtracting the cutoff frequency lower than the upper cutoff frequency.
  • the center frequency of the resonance band is then determined. This frequency is the median frequency between the cutoff frequencies.

  • the electric currents generate a strong electromagnetic radiation at the zones 21, 22 and 23, represented in dashed line at the figure 2 .
  • the radiation has two resonant frequencies, respectively defined by the dimensions of the slots 3 and 4.
  • the wavelength of the electromagnetic field corresponding to the resonance of each slot is defined by the length of the contour of this slot.
  • These resonances are of the quarter-wave type, since the short-circuit connection 6 between the chip 2 and the mass 7 imposes an electric field node.
  • the length of the electrical path is of the order of ⁇ / 4, ⁇ being the wavelength in air or vacuum.
  • the conductive pad being short-circuited via the short-circuit connection 6, the antenna dimensions can thus be reduced for a given resonant frequency.
  • the short-circuit link 6 preferably has an impedance sufficiently low to impose this electric field node.

  • the resonant frequencies are not superimposed and are close enough to generate an enlarged resonant frequency band.
  • the difference in length of the contours is preferably between 5 and 30%.
  • the resonance frequencies are thus distinct so as not to be superimposed and close enough to widen the resonance frequency band.

  • the primary resonant frequency band also uses the coupling of the slots 3 and 4.
  • An electric current is generated and passes through the first end 11 of the supply link to the edge 26. This electric current generates an induced current which flows through the mid-portion from the edge 25 to the edge 26. The latter electric current also generates an induced current which flows through the second end from the short-circuit link to the edge 26.
  • the electric currents focus on the edge 26 and generate a strong electromagnetic radiation in the zone 24 shown in dashed lines at the figure 2 .
  • the radiation thus has at least two resonant frequencies, defined mainly by the dimensions of the pellet.
  • the length of the pellet is here the determining parameter of the wavelength of the resonant frequencies. These resonances are also of the quarter-wave type because of the short-circuit connection 6 between the chip 2 and the ground 7.
  • the length of the electrical path is of the order of ⁇ / 4.
  • the primary frequency band is thus formed of at least two coupled resonances. These resonances are also influenced by the geometry and the length of the slot outline.
