本發明係關於一種天線裝置,特別關於一種阻抗匹配電路以及應用阻抗匹配電路之可調天線裝置。The present invention relates to an antenna device, and more particularly to an impedance matching circuit and a tunable antenna device using the impedance matching circuit.

近年來隨著通訊技術日新月異,如手機等無線通訊裝置儼然已成為現代生活中不可或缺的一部份,加上現代人常因商務訪問或旅行須頻繁往來世界各地,所以能接收/傳送多頻帶無線電訊號已成為無線通訊裝置必備之功能。In recent years, with the rapid development of communication technologies, wireless communication devices such as mobile phones have become an indispensable part of modern life. In addition, modern people often have to travel to and from the world frequently because of business visits or travel, so they can receive/transmit more. Band radio signals have become a must-have feature for wireless communication devices.

然而,世界各地無線通訊標準皆不相同,所以現今無線通訊裝置多以設計多頻帶天線或多支不同頻帶的天線方式來接收/傳送不同頻帶之無線電訊號。但多頻帶天線其研發上有一定困難。如圖1所示,其係利用頻帶切換電路來切換不同的調諧匹配電路及其對應天線元件,以接收及傳送多頻帶之無線電訊號,但利用多支不同頻帶的天線卻存在需耗費較多製作成本的問題。However, wireless communication standards are different around the world, so today's wireless communication devices mostly design multi-band antennas or multiple antennas of different frequency bands to receive/transmit radio signals of different frequency bands. However, multi-band antennas have certain difficulties in their development. As shown in FIG. 1, the band switching circuit is used to switch different tuning matching circuits and their corresponding antenna elements to receive and transmit multi-band radio signals.

Therefore, the present invention can greatly improve antenna performance and product competitiveness.
