Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of antenna devices, more particularly for motion sensors.
  • Antenna devices called F-inverted type, are known from the prior art.
  • such an antenna device comprises an antenna comprising a radiating element and two branches positioned perpendicular to the radiating element and in the same plane, the branches and the radiating element delimiting an antenna volume.
  • the antenna device also comprises a ground plane, active elements, which may be LEDs, arranged in the antenna volume, and a power supply disposed in the ground plane which supplies the active elements.
  • active elements which may be LEDs
  • a power supply disposed in the ground plane which supplies the active elements.
  • it is necessary to isolate the active elements relative to the ground plane. For this purpose, it is known to achieve this isolation by means of radiofrequency shutdown inductors.
  • these inductances must be placed in the antenna volume and be as close as possible to an axis separating the antenna volume from the ground plane. It is necessary that the inductors have a higher impedance in the frequencies of the antenna than the impedance in the frequencies of the active elements. In general, the frequencies of the active elements are between 0 Hertz and a few tens of kilohertz.
  • Such antenna devices have several drawbacks which are, on the one hand, related to the quality of radiofrequency shutdown inductances and, on the other hand, to the physical dimensions of these inductances. Indeed, the impedances of radiofrequency chokes have a direct influence on the performance of the antenna, as well as on the efficiency of the active elements located in the antenna volume.
  • the document EP2302736A1 discloses an antenna having as radiating elements power supply conductors of a mobile phone vibrator.
  • the present invention aims to provide a solution to overcome at least the main limitations of the state of the art indicated above.
  • the invention relates to an antenna device according to claim 1.
  • the invention also relates to a device for transmitting and receiving electrical signals, characterized in that it comprises an antenna device as described above.
  • the antenna device 1 comprises at least one antenna 10, at least one active element 20, a power supply 30 of said active element 20 via a supply circuit 31, a ground element 40,
  • the antenna 10 delimits an antenna volume V disjoined from the volume of the mass element 40, said power supply 30 of said at least one active element 20 being disposed in the volume of the mass element 40 or on the mass element 40, said antenna 10 being adapted and intended to operate in a predetermined frequency range Fa, and, said active element 20 being adapted and adapted to operate in a frequency range of the predetermined active element Fe.
  • the capacitors 61, 62 behave like short circuits and connect the first supply-conducting element 32 and the second supply-conducting element 33 to the ground element 40. Therefore, in the frequencies of the antenna Fa, the antenna device 1 behaves like an antenna without loss of performance, as shown in FIGS. Figures 1C and 3C . On the contrary, in the frequencies of the active element, the capacitors 61, 62 behave as open circuits. As a result, in the frequencies of the active element Fe, the active element 20 is powered and controlled solely by the first supply conductor element 32 and the second supply conductive element 33, as illustrated by FIGS. Figures 1B and 3B .
  • the antenna device 1 exhibits Joule losses only generated by the first supply conductive element 32 and the second conductive supply element 33 which are negligible in comparison with that usually generated in the prior art when radiofrequency shutdown inductors are employed.
  • the first and second capacitors 61, 62 may be adapted and intended to have an impedance that tends to infinity in the frequency range of the active element Fe and the first and second capacitors 61, 62 may be suitable and intended to present an impedance that tends to zero in the frequency range of the antenna Fa.
  • the first and second capacitors 61, 62 may have a value of 180 picofarads for a frequency of the antenna Fa 430 megahertz.
  • the antenna device 1 may comprise at least one third capacitor 60 electrically connecting the first supply conductive element 32 to the first antenna conducting element 11, or to the second antenna conducting element 12, or the third antenna conductive element 13, in the frequency range of the antenna Fa and the third capacitor 60 can be adapted and intended to have an impedance that tends to infinity in the frequency range of the active element Fe and the third capacitor 60 can be adapted and intended to have an impedance that tends to zero in the frequency range of the antenna Fa.
  • the supply circuit 31 comprises only a first supply-conducting element 32 and a second supply-conducting element 33.
  • the third capacitor 60 can electrically connect the first supply conductor element 32 and the first antenna conductive element 11, in the frequency range of the antenna Fa.
  • the third capacitor 60 can electrically connect the first supply conductor element 32 and the second antenna conductive element 12 in the frequency range of the antenna Fa and the fifth capacitor 63 can electrically connect the third supply conductor 34 and the second antenna conductive element 12, in the frequency range of the antenna Fa.
