Abstract

An antenna structure for an electronic apparatus is disclosed. The electronic apparatus comprises a case composed of a first case and a second case, and the first case combines correspondingly with the second case. The antenna structure comprises an antenna element and a system antenna module. The antenna element is disposed on the inner side of the first case and comprises a connection portion. The system antenna module disposed in the case comprises a corresponding connection portion, and the position of the corresponding connection portion corresponds to the connection portion. The connection portion can be in contact with the corresponding connection portion to form an electrical connection between them by combining the first case and the second case.

Claims (10)

1. An electronic apparatus comprising:

a case comprising a first case, a second case, and a connection portion disposed between the first case and the second case for combining the first case and the second case, the connection portion comprising a first signaling portion and a second signaling portion disposed at both ends of the first signaling portion; and

an antenna structure comprising:

an antenna element disposed on an inner side of the first case;

a system antenna module disposed in the second case; and

at least one laser engraved connection circuit electrically coupled between the antenna element and the system antenna module for transmitting a signal, wherein the at least one laser engraved connection circuit is formed on an inner side of the case and includes first cables and second cables, the first cables being different from the second cables;

wherein the connection portion is electrically coupled with the antenna element and the system antenna module by the at least one connection circuit; and wherein the first signaling portion and the second signaling portion are connected to the antenna element by the first cables of the at least one laser engraved connection circuit and to the system antenna module by the second cables of the at least one laser engraved connection circuit.

2. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the antenna element is a laser engraved antenna element.

3. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the antenna element comprises an antenna portion and a ground portion, the antenna portion is electrically coupled with the ground portion, and the antenna portion and the ground portion are electrically coupled with the at least one connection circuit respectively.

4. The electronic apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the connection portion is connected with the at least one connection circuit by a plurality of metal parts.
