Broadband antenna
A broadband antenna for a wireless communication device includes a grounding unit for grounding; a first radiating element; a second radiating element electrically connected to the grounding unit; a signal feed-in element for transmitting a radio signal to the first radiating element in order to emit the radio signal via the first radiating element; and a passive component comprising an inductor, where the passive component is electrically connected between the first and the second radiating elements to work in conjunction with the first radiating element, the second radiating element and the grounding unit to form a loop antenna effect.
1. A broadband antenna for a wireless communication device, comprising:
a grounding unit, for providing ground;
a first radiating element;
a second radiating element, electrically connected to the grounding unit;
a signal feed-in element, for transmitting a radio signal to the first radiating element in order to emit the radio signal via the first radiating element; and
a passive component, comprising an inductor, wherein the passive component is electrically connected between a metal part of the first radiating element and the second radiating element to work in conjunction with the first radiating element, the second radiating element, and the grounding unit to form a loop antenna effect;
wherein the metal part comprises a third radiating element, electrically connected to the first radiating element, wherein a second coupling gap exists between the third radiating element and the second radiating element such that the radio signal is fed into the third radiating element from the second radiating element by coupling;
wherein the metal part further comprises a fourth radiating element, electrically connected to the third radiating element, wherein the fourth radiating element extends toward the same direction as the first radiating element.
2. The broadband antenna of claim 1 , wherein a first coupling gap exists between the first radiating element and the second radiating element such that the radio signal is fed into the second radiating element from the first radiating element by coupling.
3. The broadband antenna of claim 1 , wherein the induced current direction of the radio signal on the first radiating element is opposite to the induced current direction of the radio signal on the second radiating element.
4. The broadband antenna of claim 1 , wherein the induced current direction of the radio signal on the third radiating element is the same as the induced current direction of the radio signal on the second radiating element.
5. The broadband antenna of claim 1 , wherein the passive component further comprises one or more additional inductors or capacitors, in series or in parallel to the inductor.
6. The broadband antenna of claim 5 , wherein the one or more capacitors are tunable capacitors.
7. The broadband antenna of claim 1 , wherein the inductor is a tunable inductor.
8. The broadband antenna of claim 1 , wherein the inductor is coupled to a sensor hub of the wireless communication device for switching an inductance value of the inductor so as to adjust a harmonic frequency and the matching of the radio signal.
