Полезная модель относится к антенной технике. Излучатель на проводящей плоскости характеризуется тем, что антенный излучатель помещен в полушар из материала, импеданс (волновое сопротивление) которого согласован с импедансом (волновым сопротивлением) вакуума. Радиус полушара из импедансносогласованного с вакуумом материала составляет менее 1/12 рабочей длины волны в вакууме, при этом импедансносогласованный материал, который окружает излучатель, должен обладать следующими свойствами: отношение действительной части относительной диэлектрической проницаемости к действительной части относительной магнитной проницаемости больше 1/2 и меньше 2; тангенсы диэлектрических и магнитных потерь менее 0.1; действительная часть относительной диэлектрической проницаемости в Е раз больше диэлектрической проницаемости вакуума, действительная часть относительной магнитной проницаемости в М раз больше магнитной проницаемости вакуума.

Adjustable multiband antenna and methods

Номер: US20120119955A1
Автор: Heikki Korva, Zlatoljub Milosavljevic
Принадлежит: Heikki Korva, Zlatoljub Milosavljevic

An adjustable multiband antenna especially intended to mobile terminals. The antenna structure comprises a radiator ( 320 ), a feed element ( 330 ) and an adjusting circuit ( 350 ). The radiator is a conductive part of the outer cover (COV) of a radio device or conductive coating of the cover. It is fed electromagnetically by a feed element which is isolated from the radiator by a relatively thin dielectric substrate. The feed element is connected either directly or through an intermediate element ( 340 ) to the antenna port of the device and to the ground plane ( 310 ), and it is shaped so that the antenna has at least two operating bands. The adjusting circuit is connected to an adjusting point (AP) in the feed element, and the reactance between the adjusting point and ground and thus the electric size of the antenna can be changed by means of a switch (SW) in the adjusting circuit. Among other things, the component values of the adjusting circuit and the distance between the short-circuit (SP) and adjusting (AP) points in the feed element are variables from the point of view of the antenna adjustment. Displacements, which have desired directions and lengths, are obtained for at least two operation bands of the antenna independently from each other by changing the switch state. The efficiency of the antenna is better than of the corresponding known antennas, and its matching can be made good both in lower and upper operating band of the antenna.

SUPERIMPOSED MULTIMODE ANTENNA FOR ENHANCED SYSTEM FILTERING

Номер: US20130141293A1

Принадлежит: ETHERTRONICS, INC.

In a typical system a combination of filters (BAW, SAW, etc) and an antenna are configured to achieve frequency filtering effect and efficient transmission and reception of communication signals. Wireless communication systems require specific bandwidth and out-of-band rejection; typically this metric is characterized in frequency roll-off in units of dB/MHz. This number is distributed between the antenna and filter, with the antenna contributing little to date to the filtering effect. Loss and cost penalties are incurred when multi-mode systems are designed which require additional rejection from the filter elements. Described here is a method of designing antennas to reduce the amount of rejection and complexity from the filter system. A superposition of a symmetrical frequency response from the antenna structure coupled with a non-symmetrical frequency response from a counterpoise structure generates increased rejection of out-of-band components. 1. An active modal antenna adapted for enhanced filtering of signals , comprising:an antenna element positioned above a circuit board forming an antenna volume therebetween;a parasitic element positioned adjacent to the antenna element; andan active control element coupled to the parasitic element and configured to vary a reactance thereon;the antenna element adapted to generate a frequency response having one or more resonances thereof;wherein the parasitic element is positioned relative to the antenna element for providing transmission and reception of signals in a desired frequency band and rejecting signals outside of the desired frequency band.2.
