Definitions
- the present invention relates to a compact multiband antenna, more particularly to a compact antenna that can be connected to a digital terrestrial television (DTT) receiver in DVB-H format (for Digital Video Broadcast Handheld in English), the receiver being able to be a portable device such as a PDA (for Personal Digital Assistant).
- DTT digital terrestrial television
- PDA Personal Digital Assistant
- DVB-H format is possible because of the computing power of the microprocessor that equips most of these devices.
- the DVB-H standard uses a new digital compression standard for video called H264 and recommends placing this new image format for mobile applications either in the UHF band (band between 470 and 870 MHz) or in the L band ( band around 1.5 GHz).
- the above portable terminals must also be able to communicate using a cellular network of GSM 900 type (for Global System for Mobile Communications 900 MHz in English).
- GSM 900 type for Global System for Mobile Communications 900 MHz in English
- Antennas that can be used with this type of terminal must therefore be sufficiently compact and meet the constraints mentioned above.
- the invention consists in proposing a compact multiband antenna in the form of an accessory for PDAs or mobile terminals which is broadband from the point of view of the DVB-H reception, multiband to access the L-band and filtering for the part GSM.
- the subject of the present invention is therefore a compact multiband antenna, characterized in that it consists of a type element dipole comprising a first conducting arm connected to a second conductive arm having the form of a housing mounted on a ground plane, the first and second arms being supplied with differential and a second slot-like element formed in said ground plane in the extension of said second arm.
- the first and second arms are rotatably mounted relative to each other. Therefore, it is possible to fold the first arm on the second arm so as to obtain a compact object that can be easily stored in a pocket.
- the first conducting arm is planar with a triangular flared portion at the connection with the second arm, the triangular flared portion extending through a rectangular or square portion.
- the specific shape of the second arm provides broadband operation while maintaining a small footprint.
- the antenna is adapted to cover the UHF band.
- the second conducting arm has the shape of a housing whose dimensions are adapted to receive an electronic card.
- this electronic card is compatible with the DVB-H standard and it comprises at least the circuits for receiving the video stream and sending it to the mobile terminal or PDA.
- the dipole-type element is connected to an adaptation circuit.
- This adaptation circuit is optimized so as to maximize the transmission between the processing circuits of the video stream and the antenna. It is also dedicated to the lower part of the UHF band, namely the 470 MHz band at 700 MHz and performs an additional filtering function for the GSM band, namely around 900 MHz.
- the slot-type element comprises two U-shaped slots mounted upside down. These two resonant slots are made in the ground plane in extension the second conducting arm of the dipole element.
- the resonant slots are sized to achieve proper antenna matching in the L-band, ie between 1452 MHz and 1492 MHz for Europe and between 1670 MHz and 1675 MHz for the United States.
- the antenna consists of a dipole type element 1 and a slot-like element 2
- the two functions are not placed next to each other but one in the other.
- the necessary large size of the ground plane is used to be effective in the UHF band, in order to integrate slots which make it possible to adapt the signal in L-band.
- the dipole-type element comprises a first arm 10 of shape planar with a substantially triangular flared portion 10a extending through a rectangular portion 10b. This shape was chosen for a minimal size, the flared portion of triangular shape to obtain the desired broadband operation.
- Part 10 is particularly compact with a total length of 35 mm and a width of 35 mm.
- This first arm 10 is connected at the end of the triangular flared portion by a connecting element 12 to the second arm 11 of the dipole.
- the second arm 11 has a volume form, more particularly the shape of a rectangular or square case extended by a planar portion in which the slots will be inserted.
- the first and second arms of the element 1 are made of a conductive material, namely metal or with a metallized material.
- the second arm 11 also has a volume portion whose length is 35 mm, the width of 35 mm and the thickness of 16 mm, plus a planar portion.
- the two arms 10 and 11 are rotatably mounted at the axis 12, so as to fold the arm 10 on the arm 11. for transport.
- the antenna is in use mode when the arm 10 is unfolded, as shown in FIG. figure 1 .
- the arm 11 is fixed on a ground plane 3.
- This ground plane can be, for example, constituted by a conductive material, namely metal or with a metallized material.
- the antenna comprises a slot-type element 2. More particularly, two U-shaped slots 20, 21 mounted upside down, are made on the metallized plane 3 in the extension of the arm 11. These U-shaped slots are resonant slots and allow to provide a correct adaptation, namely a value for S 11 less than -10 dB at the level of the antenna in the L-band, namely in the 1452 MHz to 1492 MHz band for Europe or the 1670 MHz band at 1675 MHz for the United States.
- the second arm 11 in the form of a housing is dimensioned and made to be able to receive an electronic card 4 whose one end, namely the end protruding from the housing 11 on the Figure 1B can be inserted into a connector of a portable terminal such as a PDA or the like.
- an exemplary embodiment of an adaptation circuit that maximizes the transmission between the antenna A and the LNA (Low Noise Amplifier in English), namely the low noise amplifier provided at the input of the processing circuits of the video stream received by the antenna.
- This matching circuit connects to the antenna at the connection point 12. It comprises, as shown in FIG. figure 2 , two capacitors C1, C11 connected in series between the point of connection to the antenna A and the input of the LNA and two inductors L1, L11 respectively connected between the entry point of the capacitor L1 and the ground for the inductor L1 and between the entry point of the capacity C11 and the mass for the self L11.
- This adaptation circuit has been optimized to maximize the transmission between the LNA and the antenna at the bottom of the UHF band, namely between 470 MHz and 700 MHz, and to provide an additional filtering function for the GSM band around 900 MHz.
- This electronic card 4 has a length of between 70 and 80 mm and a width of 35 mm to adapt to said housing.
- This electronic card therefore comprises an LNA 40 connected to the antenna output, possibly through the adaptation circuit described above.
- This circuit 40 is connected to a tuner 41 operating for the UHF bands and for the band L.
- the output of the tuner 41 is sent to a DVB-H demodulator 42.
- the output of the demodulator is sent to an SDIO interface circuit 43 (FIG. for Secure Digital Input / Output in English). This interface makes it possible to send the video stream to a portable terminal such as a PDA through a 44 SDIO connector.
- An antenna with its adaptation circuit as described with reference to Figures 1 and 2 has been simulated.
- An ADS2004 circuit simulator was used to optimize the values and choice of the matching circuit to maximize transmission between the antenna and the LNA.
- An IE3D electromagnetic simulator was used to give the gain, efficiency and radiation curves as a function of frequency for the antenna associated with its adaptation circuit optimized on the previous software. The simulation gave the curves of Figures 4 to 7 as well as the radiation patterns of the figure 8 .
- the curve of the figure 4 gives the variations as a function of the frequency of the transmission losses between the antenna and the LNA of the electronic circuit of the figure 3 . It can be seen that these losses are minimized and smoothed over the entire UHF band used with the DVB-H standard (ie between 470 MHz and 700 MHz). However, we see a significant loss around 900 MHz, which shows that the matching circuit performs a filtering function at this frequency.
- the figure 5 represents the gain of the antenna as a function of frequency. This curve confirms a similar operation to a dipole in the UHF band (theoretically a dipole has a directivity of 2.17 dB) but more directional, in the band L.
- the gain curve approaches 5 dBi at 1.6 GHz, which is significant of a radiation pattern more directive.
- the directionality at 1.6 GHz can be explained by the fact of the networking of two radiating slots whose diagrams add up in a preferred direction.
- the figure 6 represents the efficiency of the antenna system with an adaptation cell as described with reference to the figure 2 .
- an antenna efficiency better than 60% over the entire UHF band of the DVB-H standard and better than 90% in the entire L band of the DVB-H standard (EP and US) is obtained, but a yield lower than 20% in the GSM band around 900 MHz. This therefore reflects a filtering function in the GSM band.
- the figure 7 represents the adaptation of the antenna up to 2 GHz, ie it gives the values of the parameters S 11 of the antenna and its adaptation circuit beyond 1 GHz when it is loaded on 50 ohms.
- an adaptation less than -10 dB is obtained in the L-band.
- This adaptation is due to the resonance of the slots 20, 21 whose dimensions have been optimized on the location in the ground plane over the length and the width of the slots. to cover both the European L-band 1452-1492 MHz and the L band US 1670-1675 MHz.
- the figure 8 represents the 600 MHz and 1600 MHz radiation patterns of the figure 1 .
- the 600 MHz form is typical of a dipole (torus) whose null axis corresponds to the longitudinal axis of the antenna.
- the shape at 1.6 GHz is both the combination of the diagrams of the two slots as well as the asymmetry of the structure generated by the placement of the slots on the ground plane near a "canister".
Description
La présente invention concerne une antenne multibande compacte, plus particulièrement une antenne compacte pouvant être connectée à un récepteur de signaux de télévision numériques terrestres (TNT) au format DVB-H (pour Digital Video Broadcast Handheld en langue anglaise), le récepteur pouvant être un appareil portable tel qu'un PDA (pour Personal Digital Assistant en langue anglaise).The present invention relates to a compact multiband antenna, more particularly to a compact antenna that can be connected to a digital terrestrial television (DTT) receiver in DVB-H format (for Digital Video Broadcast Handheld in English), the receiver being able to be a portable device such as a PDA (for Personal Digital Assistant).
De nos jours, la réception sur un PDA ou appareil portable similaire, au format DVB-H est possible du fait de la puissance de calcul du microprocesseur qui équipe la plupart de ces appareils. Le standard DVB-H utilise une nouvelle norme de compression numérique pour la vidéo appelée H264 et préconise de placer ce nouveau format d'image destiné aux applications mobiles soit dans la bande UHF (bande comprise entre 470 et 870 MHz) soit en bande L (bande comprise autour de 1.5 GHz). D'autre part, les terminaux portables ci-dessus doivent aussi pouvoir communiquer en utilisant un réseau cellulaire de type GSM 900 (pour Global System for Mobile communications 900 MHz en langue anglaise). De ce fait, la bande UHF couverte doit être limitée par un filtrage sélectif à la bande 470-700 MHz.Nowadays, the reception on a PDA or similar portable device, DVB-H format is possible because of the computing power of the microprocessor that equips most of these devices. The DVB-H standard uses a new digital compression standard for video called H264 and recommends placing this new image format for mobile applications either in the UHF band (band between 470 and 870 MHz) or in the L band ( band around 1.5 GHz). On the other hand, the above portable terminals must also be able to communicate using a cellular network of GSM 900 type (for Global System for Mobile Communications 900 MHz in English). As a result, the UHF band covered must be limited by selective filtering at the 470-700 MHz band.

Les antennes susceptibles d'être utilisées avec ce type de terminaux doivent donc être suffisamment compactes et répondre aux contraintes mentionnées ci-dessus.Antennas that can be used with this type of terminal must therefore be sufficiently compact and meet the constraints mentioned above.
Ainsi, l'invention consiste à proposer une antenne multibande compacte sous forme d'un accessoire pour PDA ou terminaux mobiles qui soit large bande du point de vue de la réception DVB-H, multibande pour accéder à la bande L et filtrante pour la partie GSM.Thus, the invention consists in proposing a compact multiband antenna in the form of an accessory for PDAs or mobile terminals which is broadband from the point of view of the DVB-H reception, multiband to access the L-band and filtering for the part GSM.
La présente invention a donc pour objet une antenne multibande compacte, caractérisée en ce qu'elle est constituée par un élément de type dipôle comprenant un premier bras conducteur connecté à un second bras conducteur ayant la forme d'un boîtier monté sur un plan de masse, les premier et second bras étant alimentés en différentiel et par un second élément de type fente réalisé dans ledit plan de masse dans le prolongement dudit second bras.The subject of the present invention is therefore a compact multiband antenna, characterized in that it consists of a type element dipole comprising a first conducting arm connected to a second conductive arm having the form of a housing mounted on a ground plane, the first and second arms being supplied with differential and a second slot-like element formed in said ground plane in the extension of said second arm.
De préférence, pour faciliter l'utilisation comme accessoire d'un terminal portable, les premier et second bras sont montés à rotation l'un par rapport à l'autre.

De ce fait, l'antenne est adaptée pour couvrir la bande UHF.According to one embodiment of the present invention, the first conducting arm is planar with a triangular flared portion at the connection with the second arm, the triangular flared portion extending through a rectangular or square portion. The specific shape of the second arm provides broadband operation while maintaining a small footprint. As a result, the antenna is adapted to cover the UHF band.
D'autre part, le second bras conducteur a la forme d'un boîtier dont les dimensions sont adaptées pour recevoir une carte électronique.

It is also dedicated to the lower part of the UHF band, namely the 470 MHz band at 700 MHz and performs an additional filtering function for the GSM band, namely around 900 MHz.
D'autre part, selon un mode de réalisation préférentiel, l'élément de type fente comporte deux fentes en U montées tête-bêche. Ces deux fentes résonnantes sont réalisées dans le plan de masse en prolongement du second bras conducteur de l'élément de type dipôle. Les fentes résonnantes sont dimensionnées de manière à réaliser une adaptation correcte au niveau de l'antenne dans la bande L, à savoir entre 1452 MHz et 1492 MHz pour l'Europe et entre 1670 MHz et 1675 MHz pour les Etats-Unis.On the other hand, according to a preferred embodiment, the slot-type element comprises two U-shaped slots mounted upside down.
