Electronic device
The present disclosure provides an electronic device. The electronic device includes a carrier and an antenna unit. The antenna unit includes a base portion and an extension portion protruding downwardly from the base portion. The carrier supports the extension portion and is configured to reduce a frequency offset of signals from the antenna unit.
1 . An electronic device, comprising:
an antenna unit comprising a base portion and an extension portion protruding downwardly from the base portion;
a carrier supporting the extension portion and configured to reduce a frequency offset of signals from the antenna unit;
a feeding element supported by the extension portion and electrically connected to the carrier, wherein the feeding element defines an opening accommodating an electrical connector, and the electrical connector electrically connects the feeding element to the carrier; and
an encapsulant encapsulating the extension portion and the carrier, wherein a portion of the encapsulant is disposed within the opening.
2 . The electronic device of claim 1 , further comprising:
an antenna pattern supported by the base portion and electrically connected to the feeding element.
3 . The electronic device of claim 2 , wherein the antenna pattern is partially disposed within the base portion.
4 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein a portion of the electrical connector extends to a sidewall which defines the opening of the feeding element.
5 . An electronic device, comprising:
a carrier;
an antenna unit disposed over the carrier, wherein the antenna unit comprises a conductive structure defining an opening extending toward the carrier; and
a conductive element disposed within the opening and configured to transceive a radio frequency (RF) signal between the carrier and the conductive structure, wherein the conductive structure has an inner sidewall exposed by the opening, the conductive element contacts the inner sidewall and exposes a portion of the inner sidewall, and the conductive element extends along the inner sidewall and forms a recess.
6 . The electronic device of claim 5 , wherein the conductive element has a first portion and a second portion which extend upwardly and spaced apart from each other by the recess.
7 . The electronic device of claim 6 , wherein the first portion and the second portion extend into different elevations with respect to the carrier.
8 . The electronic device of claim 5 , wherein the inner sidewall tapered toward the carrier.
9 . The electronic device of claim 5 , wherein the antenna unit comprises an antenna pattern, and the conductive structure is recessed from the antenna pattern.
10 . The electronic device of claim 5 , further comprising:
an encapsulant disposed between the carrier and the antenna unit, wherein the antenna unit comprises a dielectric structure disposed between the encapsulant and the conductive structure.
11 . The electronic device of claim 10 , wherein the dielectric structure penetrates the encapsulant.
