Abstract

An antenna and a wireless transceiver are provided. The antenna includes: a substrate having first and second surfaces with circuits thereon; and two shield boxes located on the first and second surfaces for covering the circuits thereon. The shield boxes each comprise an antenna section and a shield section. The antenna sections are disposed at one side of the shield section and aligned with a margin of the substrate, and include signal ends electrically connected to the circuits and grounding ends electrically connected to the shield sections. The first antenna section is disposed on a diagonal opposite of the second antenna section flush with substrate margin or aligned with the substrate margin, thereby maximizing the distance between the two antennas disposed on the substrate, and preventing the two antennas from electromagnetic interference. The antennas are disposed on sides of the shield sections flush with substrate margins and thereby are space-saving.

Claims (27)

1. An antenna, comprising:

a substrate having a first surface disposed with circuits;

a first shield box disposed on the first surface of the substrate for covering the circuits;

a first radiator located on a side of the first shield box and aligned with a margin of the substrate, wherein the first radiator is perpendicular to the substrate and comprises a first end electrically connected to the circuits and a second end electrically connected to the first shield box;

a second shield box disposed on a second surface of the substrate opposing the first surface for covering circuits disposed on the second surface of the substrate; and

a second radiator located on a side of the second shield box and aligned with another margin of the substrate, wherein a first end of the second radiator is electrically connected to the circuits and a second end of the second radiator is electrically connected to the second shield box.

2. The antenna of claim 1 , wherein the first radiator and the second radiator are diagonally disposed.

3. The antenna of claim 1 , which complies with IEEE standard.

4. The antenna of claim 1 , which is a multiple input/output system.

5. The antenna of claim 1 , wherein the substrate is a printed circuit board.

6. The antenna of claim 1 , wherein the first radiator is an Inverted F Antenna.

7. The antenna of claim 1 , wherein the second radiator is an Inverted F Antenna.

8. The antenna of claim 1 , wherein lengths of the first radiator and the second radiator decide radio resonance frequency.

9. A wireless transceiver, comprising:

a substrate having a first surface disposed with circuits;

a processor electrically connected to the circuits on the first surface of the substrate;

a first shield box disposed on the first surface of the substrate for covering the circuits;

a first radiator located on a side of the first shield box and aligned with a margin of the substrate, wherein the first radiator is perpendicular to the substrate and comprises a first end electrically connected to the circuits and a second end electrically connected to the first shield box;

a second shield box disposed on a second surface of the substrate opposing the first surface for covering circuits disposed on the second surface of the substrate; and

a second radiator located on a side of the second shield box and aligned with another margin of the substrate, wherein a first end of the second radiator is electrically connected to the circuits and a second end of the second radiator is electrically connected to the second shield box.

10. The wireless transceiver of claim 9 , wherein the first radiator and the second radiator are diagonally disposed.

11. The wireless transceiver of claim 9 , which complies with IEEE standard.

12. The wireless transceiver of claim 9 , which is a multiple input/output system.

13. The wireless transceiver of claim 9 , wherein the substrate is a printed circuit board.

14. The wireless transceiver of claim 9 , wherein the first radiator is an Inverted F Antenna.

15. The wireless transceiver of claim 9 , wherein the second radiator is an Inverted F Antenna.

16. The wireless transceiver of claim 9 , wherein lengths of the first radiator and the second radiator decide radio resonance frequency.
