Definitions
- the present invention relates to a planar inverted-F antenna, in particular, for multi-band operation in wireless communication systems.
- Mobile stations that communicate with wireless networks are frequently required to operate in different frequency bands. Different frequency bands may be used, for example, in different geographical regions, for different wireless providers, and for different wireless network systems. Mobile stations therefore often require an internal antenna responsive to multiple frequency bands including a lower frequency band, such as GSM850/900 band (824 to 960MHz), and a higher frequency band, such as DCS (1710 to 1850MHz), PCS (1850 to 1990MHz) and UMTS (1920 to 2170MHz).

- S-11, S-22 and S-12 are frequency characteristics of return loss for the feed port P1, return loss for the feed port P2, and insertion loss from the feed port P1 to the feed port P2, respectively.
- S-21 which is defined as insertion loss from the feed port P2 to the feed port P1, is omitted in Fig. 4 since S-21 is considered generally identical to S-12.
- the feed port P1 and the feed port P2 are positioned on the either side of the first corner 10s of the radiating element 10, and the direction of the first part 101 of the radiating element 10 from the feed port P1 to the second corner 10u is different from that of the third part 103 of the radiating element 10 from the feed port P2 to the free end 103e.
- the first radiator (the first part 101 and the second part 102 of the radiating element 10) and the second radiator (the third part 103 of the radiating element 10) function at the low and high resonant frequency bands respectively.
- the PIFA 1 due to the arrangement of the radiation element 10 and the other elements in the PIFA 1, has therefore small and compact design while achieving good mutual coupling performance (good isolation).
- FIG. 5 In the accompanying text describing the second embodiment of a planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA) 2, refer to Figs. 5 to 8 for illustrations.
- the PIFA 2 according to the present embodiment is different from the PIFA 1 according to the first embodiment in that the PIFA 2 has a different second shorting element 132 from the second shorting element 32.
- the elements other than the second shorting element 132 are given the identical reference numerals to those in the PIFA 1, the size of each element, the distance between elements, or the distance between the ports and the elements may be modified or optimized.
- the descriptions of the elements other than the second shorting element 132 may be omitted for the sake of brevity.
- the second shorting element 132 in the PIFA 2 includes a conductive strip 132a (second strip) and a conductive strip 132b (third strip).
- the strip 132a resides beneath the radiating element 10 substantially at the first part 101 adjacent to the first corner 10s of the radiating element 10, and is arranged to be parallel to the first part 101 of the radiating element 10.
- the strip 132a is positioned along the inner edge of the first part 101 of the radiating element 10, the strip 132a may be spaced apart from the edge of the first part 101 of the radiating element 10.
- the strip 132b resides beneath the radiating element 100, and is attached to and positioned perpendicular to the strip 132a.
- the strip 132b is also arranged to be parallel to the third part 103 of the radiating element 10. Although, in Fig. 7, the strip 132b is positioned along the inner edge of the third part 103 of the radiating element 10, the strip 132b may be spaced apart from the edge of the third part 103 of the radiating element 10.
- the distance between the feed port P2 and the second shorting element 132 is a parameter that influences the high resonant frequency of the PIFA 2 and mutual coupling between the feed port P1 and the feed port P2. As illustrated in Fig. 7, the distance between the feed port P2 and the second shorting element 132 is determined by the width W132b of the strip 132b, the distance D7 between the feed port P2 and the outer edge of the third part 103 of the radiating element 10, and the distance D10 between the feed port P2 and the edge of the strip 132b measured in the direction along the outer edge of the third part 103 of the radiating element 10.
- Fig. 8 illustrates an example of calculated S-parameters of the PIFA 2 according to the present embodiment.
- S-11, S-22 and S-12 are frequency characteristics of return loss for the feed port P1, return loss for the feed port P2, and insertion loss from the feed port P1 to the feed port P2, respectively.
- S-21 which is defined as insertion loss from the feed port P2 to the feed port P1, is omitted in Fig. 8 since S-21 is considered generally identical to S-12.
- the PIFA 2 according to the present embodiment exhibits even better mutual coupling performance, by 2 to 3 dB, than that of the PIFA 1 according to the first embodiment.
- the second shorting element 132 Due to the additional conductive strip 132b of the PIFA 2, the second shorting element 132 is able to conduct current to the ground plane 100 more effectively. More specifically, when the feed port P1, which is intended to operate at the low resonant frequency band, is excited at the high resonant frequency band, current flows from the feed port P1, through the first feed element 21, the first part 101 of the radiating element 10, the second shorting element 132, and to the ground plane 100 effectively due to the larger area of the second shorting element 132.
- PIFA 3 has modified shorting elements, namely a first shorting element 231 and a second shorting element 232.
- the elements other than the shorting elements 231, 232 are given the identical reference numerals to those in the PIFA 1, the size of each element, the distance between elements, or the distance between the ports and the elements may be modified or optimized.
- the descriptions of the elements other than the shorting elements 231, 232 may be omitted for the sake of brevity.
- the first shorting element 231 and the second shorting element 232 are combined to form a substantially L-shaped element.
- the first shorting element 231 may include a conductive strip (fourth strip) that extends from an inner edge 110 (see Fig. 11), at which the first part 101 and the third part 103 of the radiating element 10 intersect, over the width of the first part 101 of the radiating element 10, while the second shorting element 232 may include a conductive strip (fifth strip) that extends from the inner edge 110 over the width of the third part 103 of the radiating element 10.
- the first shorting element 231 and the second shorting element 232 reside beneath and vertically to the radiating element 10.
- the angle between the first shorting element 231 and the second shorting element 232 is 90 degrees, that angle is not limited to 90 degrees.
- shorting elements 231 and 232 are positioned parallel to the third part 103 and the first part 101 of the radiating element 10 respectively, the shorting elements 231 and 232 may be arranged not to be parallel to the third part 103 and the first part 101.
- the distance D11 between the feed port P1 and the first shorting element 231 is a parameter that influences the low resonant frequency of the PIFA 3 and mutual coupling between the feed port P1 and the feed port P2.
- the distance D12 between the feed port P2 and the second shorting element 232 is a parameter that influences the high resonant frequency of the PIFA 3 and mutual coupling between the feed port P1 and the feed port P2.
- Fig. 12 illustrates an example of calculated S-parameters of the PIFA 3 according to the present embodiment.
- S-11, S-22 and S-12 are frequency characteristics of return loss for the feed port P1, return loss for the feed port P2, and insertion loss from the feed port P1 to the feed port P2, respectively.
- S-21 which is defined as insertion loss from the feed port P2 to the feed port P1, is omitted in Fig. 12 since S-21 is considered generally identical to S-12.
- the PIFA 3 When comparing S-12 of Fig. 8 and 12, it is recognized that the PIFA 3 according to the present embodiment exhibits a mutual coupling performance that is almost as good as that of the PIFA 2, despite that the PIFA 3 has the second shorting element 232 of a single strip in contrast with the PIFA 2 having the second shorting element 132 comprised of two strips 132a, 132b. This is because the L-shaped strip comprised of the shorting elements 231 and 232 is able to conduct current to the ground plane 100 as effectively as the second shorting element 132 of the PIFA 2.
- the shorting elements 231 and 232 provide a shorting function for PIFA elements operating at a low resonant frequency band and a high resonant frequency band respectively while achieving effective current flow for separation between the feed ports P1, P2. More specifically, when the feed port P1, which is intended to operate at the low resonant frequency band, is excited at the high resonant frequency band, current flows from the feed port P1, through the first feed element 21, the first part 101 of the radiating element 10, the L-shaped strip, and to the ground plane 100 effectively.
- PIFA 3 has modified shorting elements, thereby enabling good mutual coupling performance (good isolation) while being cost-effective and easy to fabricate, namely ideal for mass production.
- the second part 102 and the third part 103 of the radiating element 10 are arranged to be straight.
- the second part 102 and/or the third part 103 of the radiating element 10 may be bent such that one of the free ends 102e, 103e, or both, faces inward as illustrated in Fig. 13 as an example.
- This modification allows the radiating element 10 to be even more compact.
- the radiating element 10 is placed on a stiff substrate, thereby stabilizing the radiating element 10. This allows a constant height of the radiating element 10 from the ground plane 100 throughout the entire radiating element 10, and therefore allows stable radiation characteristics.
- H1 9mm, where H1 is denoted as the height of the radiating element 10 from the ground plane 100.
- Figs. 14 to 19 illustrate simulation results of far-field gain patterns of the exemplary PIFA.
- Fig. 14 illustrates a far-field 3D gain pattern under the feed port P1 excitation at 950MHz.
- Figs. 15 and 16 illustrate gain patterns at specified planes under the feed port P1 excitation at 950MHz;
- FIG. 17 illustrates a far-field 3D gain pattern under the feed port P2 excitation at 1.95GHz.
- Figs. 18 and 19 illustrate gain patterns at specified planes under the feed port P2 excitation at 1.95GHz;
- x, y, z-axes in Figs. 14 and 17 correspond to those indicated in Fig. 5; and angle Theta is measured from the vertical z-axis. As illustrated in Figs. 14 to 19, it is understood that a good level of gain has been obtained in almost all directions with the exemplary PIFA.
