Abstract

An antenna device. The antenna device includes a printed circuit board, a conductive shield, a first connection portion and a second connection portion. The printed circuit board has a feed point and a ground plane insulated from the feed point. The conductive shield surrounds the printed circuit board. The first connection portion is substantially perpendicular to the printed circuit board, electrically connecting the feed point and the conductive shield. The second connection portion is substantially perpendicular to the printed circuit board, electrically connecting the ground plane and the conductive shield.

Claims (15)

1. An antenna device, comprising:

a printed circuit board, comprising a feed point and a ground plane insulated from the feed point;

a conductive shield forming a rigid case surrounding the printed circuit board;

a first connection portion substantially perpendicular to the printed circuit board, electrically connecting the feed point and the conductive shield; and

a second connection portion substantially perpendicular to the printed circuit board, electrically connecting the ground plane and the conductive shield.

2. The antenna device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the conductive shield is extended along a central axis thereof, comprising an opening with the central axis passing therethrough.

3. The antenna device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the printed circuit board is parallel to the central axis.

4. The antenna device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the first and second connection portions are perpendicular to the conductive shield.

5. The antenna device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the conductive shield comprises metal.

6. The antenna device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the opening is rectangular.

7. A wireless communication device, comprising:

a printed circuit board, comprising a feed point and a ground plane insulated from the feed point;

a conductive shield forming a rigid case surrounding the printed circuit board;

a first connection portion substantially perpendicular to the printed circuit board, electrically connecting the feed point and the conductive shield; and

a second connection portion substantially perpendicular to the printed circuit board, electrically connecting the ground plane and the conductive shield.
