Definitions

  • GHz gigahertz
  • wireless communicating systems which are increasingly used daily, and often almost permanently, by an ever-increasing user population, all have antennas for receiving and, more often than not, to transmit signals in the frequency band defined by the technical standard that governs them. It is mainly mobile phones, especially those obeying the so-called GSM standard, acronym for "global” system for mobile communications "which defines a communication standard whose geographical coverage is global.
  • GPS Global positioning system
  • the wireless network can instead be designed to cover only a small geographical area, or very limited, such as the so-called “Bluetooth” standard that allows communication up to ten meters of terminals between them.
  • Bluetooth a wireless local area network
  • WiFi wireless local area network
  • the antennas of the above devices must nevertheless be able to maintain optimum efficiency in the entire band of frequencies where they must operate. This efficiency depends on losses which are intrinsic to the antenna and which are measured most commonly using the so-called "S" parameters, of the English “scattering parameters” which make it possible to qualify the behavior of the antenna between the propagation medium on the one hand and the electronic control circuit on the other hand.
  • S parameters have been designed and are used to measure and qualify the behavior of passive or active linear circuits operating in the frequency range referred to above often referred to as microwave or radio frequency (RF) in the technical literature. on these topics.
  • the adaptation of the antenna is defined in particular by the parameter S11 which represents the losses by reflection of the antenna. He speaks in decibels (dB). The lower the value of S11, the better the adaptation and therefore the better the overall efficiency of the antenna.
  • the parameter S11 which is frequency dependent, makes it possible to define the bandwidth of the antenna, that is to say the frequency band in which S11 remains below a given threshold which is typically defined at a level of - 6dB. Under these conditions, a quarter of the power delivered by the electronic control circuit is lost by reflection and three quarters are therefore usefully radiated by the antenna.
  • the bandwidth of an antenna can be more or less wide. It is often expressed as a percentage of its center frequency. An antenna whose bandwidth is a few percent is considered to have a narrow band of operation. This type of antenna is well suited for certain applications. For example, for a GPS receiver, an antenna whose bandwidth is of the order of 2% is sufficient.
  • An antenna with a bandwidth equal to or greater than 15% is considered to have a wide bandwidth. Those whose bandwidth is greater than or equal to 20% benefit from a very wide bandwidth. Note that to qualify this type of antennas the acronym "UWB”, the English “ultra wide band”, is also often used.
  • a very broadband antenna potentially offers many advantages.
  • a single broadband antenna can then simultaneously cover several radio frequency standards. This makes it possible to reduce the number of antennas that must be able to be implemented in multiservice wireless devices such as smart phones, which not only gives a certain cost advantage but also makes it possible to overcome technical problems that are difficult to overcome. otherwise solve the parasitic couplings that can occur between the different antennas of the same smart phone.
  • the invention relates to a device for transmitting and / or receiving radio frequency signals. according to claim 1.
  • the invention also relates to a method for producing a device for transmitting and / or receiving radio frequency signals according to claim 11.
  • the antenna according to the invention is designed to operate above a ground plane in order to allow a great freedom of placement on the application card that uses it and thus avoid any additional constraint to the designer of the application. this.
  • the major difficulty that is the proximity of a ground plane likely to make the antenna resonant and inefficient is overcome by the described structure.
  • the implementation cost of the antenna that includes the materials used, its manufacture and assembly remains low compared to the overall cost of the radio frequency module that uses it.
  • the antenna according to the present invention allows operation of the broadband antenna made possible by the coupling of several resonances.
  • box antenna or AIP the acronym for the "antenna in package” covers all the solutions that make it possible to implement in one and the same component: the radiofrequency chip for transmitting and receiving radiofrequency signals; the antenna and its adaptation network as well as other radio frequency components.
  • Conventional examples of integrating an antenna into the same electronic module are represented in the Figures 1a, 1b and 1c .
  • AIP solutions in addition to a significant surface gain compared to an external antenna, relate to the fact that the adaptation between the radiofrequency chip and its antenna is then carried out once and for all, during the very design of the module. , by a highly qualified specialized staff.
  • the antenna 111 is made on a printed circuit board 110 or PCB, that is to say "printed circuit board” supporting the radio frequency chip 115, the performances are then directly dependent on the characteristics of the PCB. application which involves the intervention of qualified personnel in radio frequencies during the integration phase.
  • the figure 1b illustrates the case where the antenna itself is placed on a separate component 121 to facilitate the integration of the radiofrequency solution. It is then typically a ceramic module which is itself soldered to the PCB. The realization of the adaptation 113 between the antenna 121 and the radiofrequency chip 115 still requires the intervention of specialized personnel.
  • the figure 1c illustrates the fact that most commonly in conventional solutions, radiofrequency chip and antenna occupy separate surfaces, 131 and 133, which do not overlap. This is done by extension of the substrate 134 constituting the PCB.
  • the good radiation of the antenna 111 imposes in fact most often the total absence of any metal surface facing which could screen. This is particularly the case of the ground plane that is still present in the region 131 of the PCB hosting the electronic components and in particular the radiofrequency chip 115.
  • the total area of the module 110 is then necessarily increased by the area occupied by the latter.
  • the advantage is that the thickness 135 of the module, after coating in a so-called overmolding layer 132, can then remain more easily compatible with the thickness constraints imposed by the manufacturers of communicating devices whose offer puts the focus on tablet-type products that must be extremely thin to be commercially competitive.
  • a communicating module according to the invention 210 is advantageously of the order of a millimeter and should not exceed two millimeters.
  • the antenna described in the following figures meets the objectives of the invention and is therefore capable of transmitting and receiving signals throughout the frequency range of the UWB standard while maintaining reduced dimensions, especially in terms of thickness.

  • FIG. 4 An example of such a substrate 410 is shown on the figure 4 which typically supports at least one radiofrequency chip 412 from which the signals to be transmitted are generated to be radiated via the antenna 310. This obviously also has the function of collecting the signals transmitted by other antennas which are amplified by the radio frequency chip 412 to be operated by a receiving system. Note that generally the substrate 410 supports more than one component. In addition to the radiofrequency chip 412, it is common for the substrate 410 to also include adaptive radio frequency components such as those mentioned in FIGS. Figures 1a to 1c (not shown in the figure 4 ).
  • the interconnections 413 between the radiofrequency chip 412 and the substrate 410 are made using a technique very commonly used in microelectronics and termed the English term of "wire bonding" based on the use of gold son.
  • the radiofrequency chip 412 is generally fixed on the substrate 410 by gluing or brazing.

  • the antenna 310 can be made from a metal plate (for example, a copper metal strip) in which cuts are made to obtain the appropriate shape 510 illustrated by the figure 5 . Then, using a folding tooling, the desired three-dimensional structure is produced as shown in FIG. figure 3 .
  • the techniques of cutting and folding thin metal parts are widely used by the electronics industry, for example for the manufacture of integrated circuit supports or for the production of shielding housings. These techniques are inexpensive and compatible with mass production. It will be noted here that for reasons of mechanical stability during assembly, additional tabs (not shown) can be made during cutting. These tabs, which are neither connected nor coupled to any metal layer of the substrate 410, do not disturb the operation of the antenna 310. role is limited only to ensure a mechanical maintenance of the latter during assembly.

  • the figure 7 illustrates the establishment of the antenna 310 which performs its antenna role possibly after embedding. Overmoulding of components is an optional but nevertheless useful operation that has no impact on the electrical performance of the system.
  • the antenna 310 may optionally play only the protection role of the components mounted on the substrate 410 and interconnections 413.

  • overmoulding 610 is necessarily present. After formation, it is covered with a metal layer that is etched, for example chemically (deposit, spraying), to create the different elements of the antenna 310 obtained, for example, from a metal strip.
