  • the present invention relates generally to antennas, and particularly to a multi-band antenna for a portable radio communication device.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide an antenna for a portable radio communication device that provides broad frequency band coverage.
  • a multi-band antenna comprising a main antenna element, a parasitic antenna element and controllable switching means, which parasitic antenna element is arranged to provide resonance above and below a main antenna element resonance with the controllable switching means changing tuning of the parasitic antenna element, provides broad frequency band coverage.
  • the main antenna element and the parasitic antenna element are off-ground antenna elements to be fitted in recent designs of portable radio communication devices.
  • the switching means comprises a switch connecting the parasitic antenna element to ground in a first state and the parasitic antenna element to open in a second state.
  • the switching means preferably comprises a switch connecting the parasitic antenna element to inducting means connected to ground in the first state and the parasitic antenna element to open in the second state.
  • the multi-band antenna preferably comprises inducting means between the parasitic antenna element and ground.
  • the inducting means comprises an inductor.

  • Fig. 5 schematically shows a switching means connected to a parasitic antenna element according to a second embodiment of the present invention.
  • a multi-band antenna providing a high frequency band and a low frequency band for a portable radio communication device 12, such as a mobile phone, a PDA, a portable computer or similar devices, comprises a main antenna element 1 and a parasitic antenna element 2.
  • the high frequency band preferably covers GSM1800, GSM1900 and WCDMA2100, and the low frequency band preferably covers GSM850 and GSM900.
  • the main antenna element 1 is designed to provide resonance both in the high frequency band and the low frequency band of the multi-band antenna.
  • the main antenna element 1 preferably comprises an IFA type of radiator with a feeding 3 and grounding portion 4.
  • the main antenna element 1 e.g. comprises a monopole type of radiator with a feeding portion 3 and no grounding portion 4.
  • the main antenna element 1 is e.g. fed by RF circuits 7 and grounded through inducting means 8, such as an inductor 8.
  • the inductor can in some cases be omitted and replaced by a direct short-circuit to ground.
  • the parasitic antenna element 2 is designed to provide resonance in the high frequency band of the multi-band antenna, as desired coverage of such frequency band requires the broadest frequency band coverage.
  • the parasitic antenna element 2 is preferably a radiator with a grounding portion 5, 6.
  • the grounding portion 6 of the parasitic antenna element 2 is e.g. grounded through reactive means 10, such as inductive means 10, e.g. a discrete inductor or a transmission line, but could also be grounded through capacitive means or a combination thereof.
  • the grounding portion 5 of the parasitic antenna element 2 is e.g. connected to controllable switching means 9.
  • the controllable switching means 9 tunes the parasitic antenna element 2 to a first parasitic resonance center frequency Ua above a first main resonance center frequency- la of the main antenna element 1 in a first state of the switching means 9, e.g. by connecting the grounding portion 5 to ground.
  • the controllable switching means 9 tunes the parasitic antenna element 2 to a second parasitic resonance center frequency lib below a second main resonance center frequency Ib of the main antenna element 1 in a second state of the switching means 9, e.g. by connecting the grounding portion 5 to an open connection.
  • the controllable switching means 2 is preferably a switch, such as a SPDT (Single Pole, Double Throw) switch, but could be provided by other means.
  • the first and second main resonance center frequencies Ia and Ib are essentially the same resonance center frequency of the main antenna element 1 but it is slightly shifted with major tuning changes of the parasitic antenna element 2.
  • By switching the resonance center frequency of the parasitic antenna element 2 above and below of the resonance center frequency of the main antenna element 1 a very broad frequency band coverage is attained for the multi-band antenna with use of only little space of the portable radio communication device, thus allowing little clearance utilization for the multi-band antenna in the portable radio communication device.
  • clearance is meant the spacing between an end of the printed wiring board and the casing of the portable radio communication device.
  • the reactive means 10 is largely used to determine the amount of frequency switching of the parasitic radiator resonance between the switch states .
  • a multi-band antenna having a main antenna element 1 and a parasitic antenna element 2, which resonance center frequency of the parasitic antenna element 2 is switched above and below a resonance center frequency of the main antenna element 1, provides for small clearance in the portable radio communication device, which is particularly advantageous for off-ground antennas.
  • An off-ground antenna is positioned outside of a printed wiring board 11 in the portable radio communication device 12, such as a mobile phone, which is illustrated in Fig. 4.
  • the switching means may be provided with more than two switching states, up to essentially continuous variation of tuning.
  • Essentially continuous variation of tuning may e.g. be provided by means of a variable capacitor.
  • the main antenna element may be provided with switching means and/or tuning means to adjust its different resonance center frequencies.
  • a second embodiment of the present invention is next described with reference to Fig. 5.
  • This second embodiment is identical with the first embodiment described above apart from the following.
  • the switch 9 connects the parasitic antenna element 2 to open or to ground through inductive means, such as an inductor, to provide fine tuning for the grounded as well as open state of the switch.
  • the switch 9 connects the parasitic antenna element 2 to a first inductive means in the first state and a second inductive means in the second state, in which case the inductive means 10 could be omitted.
  • a third embodiment of the present invention will next be described.
  • This third embodiment is identical with the first embodiment described above apart from the following.
  • the parasitic resonance center frequency of the parasitic antenna element is in the first state of the switching means 9 tuned to the high frequency band of the multi-band antenna and in the second state of the switching means 9 tuned to the low frequency band of the multi-band antenna, or vice verse. This is e.g. achieved by use of a large inductance 10.
