Definitions

  • the invention relates to an antenna for a radio-operated communication terminal, with at least one substantially planar radiating element, wherein at least a portion of the radiating element is folded wave-meandering, according to the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • the small size is e.g. desirable to avoid wind noise, to minimize air resistance or because it is no longer necessary to disassemble the antenna in a car wash.
  • a widely used antenna structure in particular in mobile communications, is the Planar Inverted-F Antenna (PIFA).
  • PIFA Planar Inverted-F Antenna
  • the dimensions of the side lengths of the planar radiator depend essentially on the frequency (wavelength) at which the antennas are operated should.
  • a simple PIFA has a relatively high space requirement.
  • EP 1 286 417 A2 A known solution for reducing the space requirement of an antenna is in EP 1 286 417 A2 described and consists in that metal layers are partially arranged one above the other. In the case of the described patch antenna, however, this only concerns edge regions of the radiator, so that planar radiator end regions arranged in parallel one above the other are present.
  • EP 1 026 774 A2 shows that planar-inverted-F antennas can be shortened by forming the radiating element wavy, as shown in Fig. 6, or rectangular-meandering, as shown in FIG. 8 shows this.
  • the present invention has the object to provide a novel antenna whose radiating element is designed so cleverly that even further miniaturization of the antenna is made possible.
  • the invention achieves this object with the features of claim 1 and is characterized in that the folded portion of the radiator element is folded three-dimensionally by folding along at least two, at an angle to each other standing directions.
  • the essence of the invention thus consists essentially in that miniaturization is achieved by basically maintaining the basic structure and the external dimensions of a planar radiator element by folding the largest possible area, preferably the entire radiator, so that partial areas of the radiator are no longer in the same level. This considerably reduces the area required by the antenna.
  • the main difference to the in EP 1286 417 A2 described antenna is that in the radiator element according to the invention, the differently configured areas adjacent to each other and not on top of each other and between the radiator element and the base surface.
  • the antenna according to the invention differs quite substantially in that the structuring is not present in a single direction but in two directions which are at an angle W to one another. Only then will the possibility of a further considerable miniaturization of a planar radiator can be utilized.
  • the invention further provides that fold lines define the folds of the emitter element and these fold lines are interrupted at intervals of material weakening zones, which are preferably formed by openings in the emitter element.
  • the openings in relation to the total area are so small that they can not significantly influence the electrical behavior of the radiating element.
  • the material weakening zones or breakthroughs are preferably provided in the region of the intersection points of the folding lines running at an angle (W).
  • the angle (W) can be a different angle from 0 to 180 °, but it is recommended, also with regard to a production-technically favorable foldability of the planar radiator, when the angle (W) is a right angle of 90 °.
  • the antenna is characterized by zigzag-like folding of the radiator element in a first direction. Also in the second direction, the radiating element can receive a zig-zag-like folding. This results in an antenna with a radiating element, which is double zig-zag folded in two angular directions.
  • a comparable structure can be achieved if, instead of a zig-zag-like folding in two directions, a double meandering fold is provided in these two directions.
  • an antenna can be realized in which the radiating element is formed in a zigzag-like manner in one direction and in three dimensions in the other direction in a meandering manner.
  • the folding can be in a constant grid, with all fold lines having the same distance from each other. Furthermore, it is provided according to an embodiment of the invention that the folding is present in a regular grid, the fold lines forming a zig-zag shape alternating with flat surface sections.
  • one of the two directions can have a direction parallel to the plane of a ground plane.
  • Another preferred orientation of the radiator to the mass surface is that one of the two directions is a direction perpendicular to the plane of the ground plane. In the former case results in a very flat-building, in the other case, a slim, towering antenna.
  • a generally designated 10 emitter element consists in principle of a planar, flat cross-section metal strip. There are a so-called entry point 11 and a Base plate contact 12 for connection to the only in Fig. 4, a ground surface representing base plate 13th
  • the radiator element 10 is folded in a zigzag manner with respect to a first direction R1.
  • This fold is defined by fold lines 14, each alternating with planar rectilinear sections 15.
  • the fold lines 14 run perpendicular to the direction R1 defined in FIG. This is the direction R2 which is perpendicular to the direction R1 in the embodiment.
  • the radiator element 10 is also folded, and at intervals roof-like for the configuration of a zig-zag-like folding.
  • the respective extensions of the fold lines 14, 17, 18 and 19 are interrupted by regions which in the embodiment are formed as apertures 21 in the radiator element 10.
  • these openings 21 form the intersections of a cross grid.
  • breakthroughs 21 one could also think of providing significant material weakening zones at these points, which permit the double folds according to the invention in the points of intersection.
  • apertures 21 are easier to manufacture. It should be noted, however, that the openings 21 are as small as possible in order not to influence the electrical behavior of the radiator element 10 in an undesired direction.
  • FIG. 1 illustrated by Figs. 1a and 1b, shows a three-dimensional double zigzag-like folded emitter element 10
  • Fig. 2 illustrates an embodiment in which in the direction R2 in principle the same structure is present, while in the direction of R1 the folding is not like the first embodiment zig-zag-like, but is designed meandering. This has the consequence that viewed in the direction of R1 alternate planar elements 15 include a smaller internal angle (preferably 90 °). This angle is greater in the embodiment of FIG. 1, the zig-zag-like folding. It can be seen that the length of the emitter element of FIG. 2 measured in the direction R1 is still considerably shorter than that of the first embodiment due to the folding, provided that the starting length of a planar emitter element is the same.
  • FIG. 3 A further modification within the scope of the invention is shown in FIG. 3, supplemented by FIGS. 3a and 3b.
  • FIG. 3 here is a three-dimensionally double-folded radiator 10 before.
  • R1 Its configuration in the direction R1 is the same as in the embodiment according to FIG. 2, ie meandering.
  • R2 meandering designed.
  • the Dachausformungen 16 are no longer pointed gable-like, but limited by three surfaces. These surfaces 22, 23 and 24 need not be at right angles to each other.
  • Other folding cross sections are possible, such as e.g. asymmetrical meander, wavy, warped or polygonal folds.
  • the radiator 10 of the embodiment of Fig. 4 is the same as that shown in Fig. 3.
  • the radiator extends substantially parallel to the ground plane 13, whereas in the embodiment of FIG. 3 it is perpendicular to it.
