Abstract

An antenna for receiving radio signals of at least a first frequency band and a second frequency band includes a grounding unit for providing grounding, a connecting unit electrically connected to a first terminal of the grounding unit, a feeding terminal, formed on the connecting unit, for transmitting the radio signals of the first frequency band and the second frequency band, a first radiating element electrically connected between the connecting unit and a second terminal of the grounding unit, and a second radiating element electrically connected between the connecting unit and a third terminal of the grounding unit. Lengths of signal routes from the feeding terminal through the first radiating element and the second radiating element to the grounding unit are substantially equal to a half wavelength of the radio signals of the first frequency band and a half wavelength of the radio signals of the second frequency band, respectively.

Claims (27)

1. An antenna for transmitting and receiving radio signals of at least a first frequency band and a second frequency band, comprising:

a grounding unit, for providing grounding;

a connecting unit, electrically connected to a first terminal of the grounding unit;

a feeding terminal, formed on the connecting unit, for transmitting the radio signals of the first frequency band and the second frequency band;

a first radiating element, electrically connected to the connecting unit and a second terminal of the grounding unit, wherein a length of a signal path from the feeding terminal through the connecting unit and the first radiating element to the second terminal of the grounding unit is substantially equal to a half wavelength of radio signals at the first frequency band, to form the first radiating element used for transmitting and receiving the radio signals of the first frequency band; and

a second radiating element, electrically connected to the connecting unit and a third terminal of the grounding unit, wherein a length of a signal path from the feeding terminal through the connecting unit and the second radiating element to the third terminal of the grounding unit is substantially equal to a half wavelength of radio signals at the second frequency band, to form the second radiating element used for transmitting and receiving the radio signals of the second frequency band.

2. The antenna of claim 1 , wherein the first radiating element comprises:

a first branch, electrically connected to the connecting unit; and

a second branch, electrically connected to the first branch and the second terminal of the grounding unit;

wherein the first branch is substantially perpendicular to the second branch.

3. The antenna of claim 2 , wherein the first radiating element further comprises at least one parasitic block formed on the first branch or the second branch, for adjusting a transmitting and receiving frequency band of the first radiating element.

4. The antenna of claim 3 , wherein the at least one parasitic block of the first radiating element adjusts the transmitting and receiving band of the first radiating element, to transmit and receive radio signals beyond the first frequency band and the second frequency band.

5. The antenna of claim 1 , wherein the second radiating element comprises:

a third branch, electrically connected to the connecting unit; and

a fourth branch, electrically connected to the third branch and the third terminal of the grounding unit;

wherein the third branch is substantially perpendicular to the fourth branch.

6. The antenna of claim 5 , wherein the second radiating element further comprises at least one parasitic block formed on the third branch or the fourth branch, for adjusting a transmitting and receiving frequency band of the second radiating element.

7. The antenna of claim 6 , wherein the at least one parasitic block of the second radiating element adjusts the transmitting and receiving frequency band of the second radiating element, to transmit and receive radio signals beyond the first frequency band and the second frequency band.

8. The antenna of claim 1 , wherein the first radiating element is substantially extended from the connecting unit toward a first direction, and the second radiating element is substantially extended from the connecting unit toward a second direction.

9. The antenna of claim 8 , wherein the first direction is substantially opposite to the second direction.

10. The antenna of claim 8 , wherein the first direction is substantially parallel to the second direction.

11. The antenna of claim 1 , wherein the connecting unit comprises:

a first block, electrically connected to the first terminal of the grounding unit; and

a second block, electrically connected to the first block, the first radiating element and the second radiating element;

wherein an area of the first block is smaller than that of the second block, and the feeding terminal is formed on the first block.

12. The antenna of claim 1 , wherein the grounding unit comprises at least one parasitic block.

13. The antenna of claim 1 , being made of a conductive material.
