Wideband antenna
A wideband antenna for a radio transceiver device includes a first radiating element for transmitting and receiving wireless signals of a first frequency band, a second radiating element for transmitting and receiving wireless signals of a second frequency band, a grounding unit, a shorting unit having one end electrically connected to the first radiating element and the second radiating element, and another end electrically connected to the grounding unit, and a feeding board including a first feeding metal plane for transmitting wireless signals of the first frequency band and the second frequency band, a second feeding metal plane electrically connected to the second radiating element, and a metal strip electrically connected between the first radiating element and the second radiating element.
1. A wideband antenna for a radio transceiver device, comprising:
a first radiating element, extended toward a first direction, for transmitting and receiving wireless signals of a first frequency band;
a second radiating element, extended toward a second direction different from the first direction, for transmitting and receiving wireless signals of a second frequency band, wherein the second frequency band is different from the first frequency band;
a grounding unit;
a shorting unit, having one end electrically connected between the first radiating element and the second radiating element, and another end electrically connected to the grounding unit; and
a feeding board, comprising:
a first feeding metal plane element, for transmitting wireless signals of the first frequency band and the second frequency band;
a second feeding metal plane element, electrically connected to the second radiating element, for directly feeding the wireless signals to the first or second radiating element; and
a metal strip, electrically connected between the first feeding metal plane element and the second feeding metal plane element;
wherein the first feeding metal plane element is coupled to the shorting unit and is configured at a specific distance from the shorting unit for indirectly feeding the wireless signals to the first or second radiating element, and a result generated by projecting the feeding board on a plane corresponding to the shorting unit partially overlaps the shorting unit and only one of the first radiating element and the second radiating element;
wherein the shorting unit comprises:
a first arm, electrically connected between the first radiating element and the second radiating element, and extending toward the grounding unit;
a second arm, electrically connected to the first arm; and
a third arm, electrically connected between the second arm and the grounding unit;
wherein the result generated by projecting the first feeding metal plane element on the plane corresponding to the shorting unit overlaps the first arm partially.
2. The wideband antenna of claim 1 , wherein the first feeding metal plane element is coupled to a connection place between the first arm and the second arm.
3. The wideband antenna of claim 1 , wherein the second arm extends toward the first radiating element.
4. The wideband antenna of claim 1 , wherein the second arm extends toward the second radiating element.
5. The wideband antenna of claim 1 further comprising a substrate, wherein the first radiating element, the second radiating element and the shorting unit are formed on one plane of the substrate, and the feeding board is formed on another plane of the substrate.
6. The wideband antenna of claim 5 , wherein the second feeding metal plane element is electrically connected to the second radiating element with a via structure.
