  • the antenna 1001 will therefore have three distinct resonant frequencies.
  • altering the geometry of the slots 1004 and 1104 can result in the antenna 1001 having both the V ⁇ wavelength and the 3 / ⁇ wavelength resonant frequencies 5 overlapping to form two wider bandwidth resonant frequencies (not shown) (in the case where the geometries of 1001 a and 1001 b are substantially similar). It will also be appreciated that altering the geometry of the slots 1004 and 1104 can result in the antenna 1001 having no overlapping resonant frequencies and therefore having four distinct resonant frequencies o (not shown) (in the case where the geometries of 1001 a and 1001 b are substantially different).
  • an antenna 1201 which is the same as the antenna 1001 of Figure 27 except that the feed structures 1009, 1010 and 1109, 1110
  • References 1001 -1019 and 1102-1119 have corresponding references 1201- 1219 and 1302-1319.
  • the antenna 1201 has a single feed 1209,1210 positioned midway between the antennas 1201 a and 1201 b and lying beneath the non-conductive strip 1219 ( Figure 30).
  • the open-ended slot geometry forms a polygon determined so as the sum of the interior angles excluding the open end is not 540 degrees.
  • the antenna could be made symmetrical to give a reduced bandwidth but better matching characteristics.
  • one or more of the various embodiments may be combined.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de modifier indépendamment la fréquence de résonance en longueur d'onde de ¼ et/ou dans une antenne PIFA à fente ouverte (101) comprenant une alimentation (109, 110) et un circuit antenne-terre, le circuit antenne-terre étant associé à l'extrémité de court-circuit de l'antenne et une fente ouverte ayant une extrémité ouverte étant associée à l'extrémité de circuit ouvert de l'antenne. Le circuit antenne-terre et la fente sont disposés mutuellement pour fournir des variations fonctionnelles au niveau de la densité du courant entre l'extrémité ouverte et l'extrémité de court-circuit de l'antenne et autour du périmètre de la fente, et une longueur de circuit de courant moyen fonctionnel entre l'extrémité ouverte et l'extrémité de court-circuit de l'antenne et autour du périmètre de la fente ouverte, le circuit de courant moyen déterminant les fréquences résonantes en longueur d'onde de ¼ et/ou pour l'antenne PIFA à fente ouverte. Le procédé consiste à déterminer les variations fonctionnelles dans la densité du courant autour du périmètre d'une antenne PIFA à fente ouverte préalablement modifiée et à modifier la longueur du circuit de courant moyen autour du périmètre de la fente ouverte préalablement modifiée dans des régions à densité de courant comparativement élevée.
