Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to antennas for radio communication terminals and, in particular, to compact built-in antennas devised to be incorporated into portable terminals and having a wide bandwidth to facilitate operation of the portable terminals within different frequency bands.
- PCNs Personal Communication Networks
- the Cellular hyperband is assigned two frequency bands (commonly referred to as the A frequency band and the B frequency band) for carrying and controlling communications in the 800 MHz region.
- the PCS hyperband is specified in the United States to include six different frequency bands (A, B, C, D, E and F) in the 1900 MHz region.
- A, B, C, D, E and F six different frequency bands
- PCS hyperband e.g., PCS1900 (J-STD-007)
- Cellular hyperband e.g., D-AMPS (IS-136)
- Other frequency bands in which these devices will be operating include GPS (operating in the 1.5 GHz range) and UMTS (operating in the 2.0 GHz range).
- Each one of the frequency bands specified for the Cellular and PCS hyperbands is allocated a plurality of traffic channels and at least one access or control channel.
- the control channel is used to control or supervise the operation of mobile stations by means of information transmitted to and received from the mobile stations.
- Such information may include incoming call signals, outgoing call signals, page signals, page response signals, location registration signals, voice channel assignments, maintenance instructions, hand-off, and cell selection or reselection instructions as a mobile station travels out of the radio coverage of one cell and into the radio coverage of another cell.
- the control and voice channels may operate using either analogue modulation or digital modulation.
- the signals transmitted by a base station in the downlink over the traffic and control channels are received by mobile or portable terminals, each of which have at least one antenna.
- portable terminals have employed a number of different types of antennas to receive and transmit signals over the air interface.
- monopole antennas mounted perpendicularly to a conducting surface have been found to provide good radiation characteristics, desirable drive point impedance and relatively simple construction.
- Monopole antennas can be created in various physical forms. For example, rod or whip antennas have frequently been used in conjunction with portable terminals. For high frequency applications where an antenna's length is to be minimised, another choice is the helical antenna.
- mobile terminal manufacturers encounter a constant demand for smaller and smaller terminals. This demand for miniaturisation is combined with desire for additional functionality such as having the ability to use the terminal at different frequency bands and different cellular systems.
- PIFA planar inverted-F antennas
- the geometry of a conventional PIFA antenna includes a radiating element, a feeding pin for the radiating element, a ground pin for the radiating element, and a ground substrate commonly arranged on a printed circuit board (PCB). Both the feeding pin and the ground pin are arranged perpendicular to the ground plane, and radiating element is suspended above the ground plane in such a manner that the ground plane covers the area under the radiating element.
- This type of antenna generally has a fairly small bandwidth in the order of 100 MHz.
- the vertical distance between the radiating element and the PCB ground has to be increased, i.e. the height at which the radiating element is placed above the PCB is increased.
- Another solution to this problem is to add a dielectric element between the antenna and the PCB, in order to make the electrical distance longer than the physical distance.
- US 6,326,921 to Ying et al discloses a built-in, low-profile antenna with an inverted planar inverted F-type (PIFA) antenna and a meandering parasitic element, and having a wide bandwidth to facilitate communications within a plurality of frequency bands.
- a main element is placed at a predetermined height above a substrate of a communication device and the parasitic element is placed on the same substrate as the main antenna element and is grounded at one end.
- the feeding pin of the PIFA is proximal to the ground pin of the parasitic element.
- the coupling of the meandering, parasitic element to the main antenna results in two resonances. These two resonances are adjusted to be adjacent to each other in order to realise a broader resonance encompassing the DCS (Digital Cellular System), PCS and UMTS frequency ranges.
- DCS Digital Cellular System
- PCS Personal Communications Service

- a radio communication terminal comprising a multiband radio antenna device according to any of the previous claims.
- radio terminals refers to radio terminals as a device in which to implement a radio antenna design according to the present invention.
- the term radio terminal includes all mobile equipment devised for radio communication with a radio station, which radio station also may be mobile terminal or e.g. a stationary base station. Consequently, the term radio terminal includes mobile telephones, pagers, communicators, electronic organisers, smartphones, PDA:s (Personal Digital Assistants), vehicle-mounted radio communication devices, or the like, as well as portable laptop computers devised for wireless communication in e.g. a WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network). Furthermore, since the antenna as such is suitable for but not restricted to mobile use, the term radio terminal should also be understood as to include any stationary device arranged for radio communication, such as e.g.
- the present invention provides an antenna design with a complex pattern and three grounding points.
- Computer simulations with surprisingly good results have been made. These simulations have been performed using the tool IE3D, distributed by Zeland Inc. This tool uses the Moment Method as a mathematical solver, and simulation results obtained correlate well with measurement tests on prototypes, such as those disclosed in Fig.5, which will be explained further down.
