Abstract

An antenna structure includes a first ground element, a second ground element, a first radiation element, a second radiation element, a third radiation element, a fourth radiation element, a fifth radiation element, and a first capacitor. The first capacitor is coupled between the first radiation element and the first ground element. The second radiation element and the third radiation element are coupled to the second ground element, and are disposed adjacent to the first radiation element. The first radiation element is disposed between the second radiation element and the third radiation element. The fourth radiation element and the fifth radiation element are coupled between the first ground element and the second ground element. The first radiation element, the second radiation element, and the third radiation element are substantially surrounded by the first ground element, the second ground element, the fourth radiation element, and the fifth radiation element.
