Definitions
- the invention relates to antennas for use in portable communications devices such as mobile telephones.
- Portable communications devices are required to be compact in size, which is a requirement that applies to every component of the devices, including the antenna.
- Modern mobile telephones use two or more distinct frequency bands, and preferably one and the same antenna is required to operate in all frequency bands used by the telephone.
- the GSM band centred on the frequency 900 MHz the DSC band centred on 1800 MHz
- the PCS band centred on 1900 MHz The 900 MHz and 1800 MHz frequency bands are separated by one octave, whereas the 1800 MHz and 1900 MHz frequency bands are separated by only a fraction of one octave.
- the antenna has separate portions tuned to respective ones of the two frequency bands, since it is not considered feasible to have one and the same portion of the antenna tuned to a frequency band of more than, one octave with a relatively large unused frequency band between the useful frequency bands.
- the invention provides an antenna for use in eg portable communications devices such as mobile telephones.
- the antenna is useful in a low frequency band and two high frequency bands, where the two high frequency bands are relatively closer to each other than to the low frequency band.
- the antenna is thus effectively a triple band antenna, and a mobile telephone having such an antenna is thus useful in three frequency bands such as the above identified three frequency bands centred on 900 MHz, 1800 MHz and 1900 MHz respectively.
- the invention is not restricted to the use in the above-identified frequency bands, but will be suitable for use in existing and future frequency bands as well.
- Figure 1 schematically shows a known dual band antenna electrically connected to a printed circuit board
- Figure 2 schematically shows a preferred embodiment of a triple band antenna of the invention electrically connected to a printed circuit board
- Figure 3 is an end view of the antenna and printed circuit board of figure 2
- Figure 4 schematically shows the printed circuit board with 1 the antenna in figure 2, and
- Figure 5 is a diagram showing a typical return loss for an antenna according to the invention.
- FIGS 2-4 a printed circuit board PCB with an antenna according to the invention for use in a mobile telephone is shown.
- the printed circuit board has a rectangular shape, and the invention is not restricted to the use of a rectangular shape.
- the printed circuit board will have a number of electronic components mounted thereon, which are necessary for the operation of the mobile telephone, but which are not part of the invention. In figure 4 such components are therefore indicated only schematically.
- an electrically conductive material such as copper, constitutes the antenna of the invention.
- the antenna is preferably spaced from the printed circuit board PCB with a predetermined distance therebetween.
- a first conductor portion CPl which is rectilinear in this embodiment, has a grounding point with a first grounding post GPl at a first end of the first conductor portion CPl.iln use the grounding point will be electrically connected through the first grounding post GPl to ground potential at the printed circuit board PCB.
- the first conductor portion CP1 has a feeding point with a feeding post FP electrically connecting the first conductor portion CP1 to an electronic circuit on the PCB for feeding the antenna with signals to be transmitted by the antenna, and/or to electronic circuitry for receiving signals received by the antenna.
- the portion of the first conductor portion CP1 situated between the feeding post FP and the first grounding post GPl functions as a matching bridge MB.
- a low band portion LB branches off at one side of the straight first conductor portion CP1 and forms a spiral.
- three rectilinear segments forming right angles with each other constitute the low band spiral.
- the innermost segment in the spiral is wider than the remaining three rectilinear segments including the conductor portion CP1.
- a first high band portion HBl also forming a spiral, branches off at a right angle and at the same side as the low band portion LB.
- the first high band spiral is also constituted by three rectilinear segments forming right angles with each other.
- the segments constituting the first high band spiral have substantially equal widths.
- the low band portion LB of the antenna is tuned to have a relatively low resonance frequency, such as 900 MHz, and a predefined bandwidth to define a low frequency band of the antenna.
- the low resonance frequency is mainly determined or influenced by the length of the low band portion LB measured from the feeding point FP to the inner end of the spiral, which length corresponds to one quarter of a wavelength at the low resonance frequency.
- the first high band portion HBl of the antenna is tuned to have a first high resonance frequency, such as 1800 MHz, , and predefined bandwidth to define a first high frequency band.
- the first high resonance frequency is mainly determined or influenced by the length of the first high band portion HBl measured from the feeding point FP to the inner end of the spiral, which length corresponds to one quarter of a wavelength at the first high resonance frequency.
- the low band portion LB and the first high band portion HBl of the antenna form a dual band antenna which is usable in mobile telephones operating in two frequency bands such as 900 MHz and 1800 MHz.
- the antenna also has a second high band portion HB2 in the form of a second conductor portion CP2 arranged in a parallel relationship to the first conductor portion CP1 and at a predetermined distance therefrom.
- the second high band portion HB2 has a grounding point electrically connected through a second grounding post GP2 to ground potential on the PCB.
- the second grounding post GP2 is arranged in close vicinity of the feeding post FP, preferably at a distance of 0.5 mm, or at least in the range between 0.1 mm and 1.0 mm.
- the second high band portion HB2 of the antenna is tuned to have a second high resonance frequency, such as 1900 MHz, and predefined bandwidth to define a second high frequency band.
- the second high resonance frequency is mainly determined or influenced by the length of the second conductor portion CP2, which corresponds to one quarter of a wavelength at the second high, frequency, and the capacitive coupling between the first conductor portion CPl and the second conductor portion CP2.
- the first high band portion HBl of the antenna can be tuned to the higher one of the two high band resonance frequencies - here 1900 MHz, and the second high band portion HB2 of the antenna can be tuned to the lower one of the two high band resonance frequencies - here 1800 MHz.
- the first high band portion HBl of the antenna is arranged on one side of the first linear conductor portion CPl, and the second high band portion HB2 of the antenna is arranged on the opposite side of first linear conductor portion CPl.
- interference between the two high frequency bands is reduced to • a minimum.
- the active portions of the antenna (including the linear conductor portions CPl and CP2, the low and high band portions LB, HBl and HB2) are spaced from the printed circuit board PCB.
- the dielectric substrate DE In the space between the active portions of the antenna and the PCB there is a dielectric substrate DE with. physical dimensions and specific dielectric properties selected for the proper functioning of the antenna.
- the thickness of the dielectric substrate DE is not necessarily the same as the distance separating the active portions of the antenna from the printed circuit board PCB.
- the active portions of the antenna When used in a mobile telephone, the active portions of the antenna may be placed close to the inner side of a housing wall of the telephone or even fixed or secured thereto, eg by gluing. In such case the dielectric properties of the housing material and their influence on the functioning of the antenna should be taken into account .
- FIG 5 is shown a typical return loss for a multi frequency band antenna according to the invention.
- the return loss is here expressed as the voltage standing wave; ratio (VSWR) of the antenna drawn on a linear frequency scale from 500 MHz to 2.5 GHz.
- the return loss has one distinct minimum at a low frequency band and two minima at two high frequency bands HFl and HF2 relatively close to each other.
