Abstract

An antenna structure includes a first signal source, a second signal source, a first radiator, a second radiator, a third radiator, a first circuit, and a second circuit. The first signal source is used to generate a first wireless signal, and the second signal source is used to generate a second wireless signal. The first radiator is coupled to the first signal source to receive the first wireless signal, and the second radiator is coupled to the second signal source to receive the second wireless signal. The first circuit has a first end coupled to the third radiator and a second end coupled to the first radiator or the first signal source. The second circuit has a first end coupled to the third radiator and a second end coupled to the second radiator or the second signal source.

Claims (17)

1. An antenna structure, comprising:

a first signal source, used to generate a first wireless signal;

a second signal source, used to generate a second wireless signal;

a first radiator, coupled to the first signal source to receive the first wireless signal;

a second radiator, coupled to the second signal source to receive the second wireless signal;

a third radiator;

a first circuit, having a first end coupled to the third radiator and a second end coupled to the first radiator or the first signal source; and

a second circuit, having a first end coupled to the third radiator and a second coupled to the second radiator or the second signal source.

2. The antenna structure according to claim 1 , wherein when the second end of the first circuit is coupled to the first radiator, the first circuit turns on or off a connection path between the third radiator and the first radiator according to a mode selecting signal.

3. The antenna structure according to claim 1 , wherein when the second end of the first circuit is coupled to the first signal source, the first circuit turns on or off a connection path between the third radiator and the first signal source according to a mode selecting signal.

4. The antenna structure according to claim 1 , wherein the first circuit turns off the connection between the third radiator and the first radiator and the first signal source according to a mode selecting signal, and the second circuit turns off the connection between the third radiator, the second radiator and the second signal source according to the mode selecting signal.

5. The antenna structure according to claim 1 , wherein each of the first circuit and the second circuit includes an impedance matching circuit, a switch circuit, and a filter circuit coupled in series with each other.

6. The antenna structure according to claim 1 , further comprises:

a first impedance matching circuit, coupled between the first signal source and the first radiator; and

a second impedance matching circuit, coupled between the second signal source and the second radiator.

7. The antenna structure according to claim 1 , wherein the first radiator, the second radiator, and the third radiator are disposed on a body portion of an electronic device, wherein the first radiator, the second radiator, and the third radiator are respectively arranged along a first axis, a second axis and a third axis, and the first axis, the second axis and the third axis are different.

8. The antenna structure according to claim 1 , wherein the first radiator, the second radiator, and the common radiator are arranged on a metal casing, and the metal casing has a corner portion, wherein the corner portion forms the common radiator, and the first radiator is disposed on a first extension portion adjacent to a first side of the corner portion, and the second radiator is disposed on a second extension portion adjacent to a second side of the corner portion.
