Abstract

An electronic device including a shell, an antenna unit, an insulating layer and an isolating conductor is provided. The material of the shell includes conductive material. The antenna unit is disposed on the shell and includes a first antenna and a second antenna. The first antenna and the second antenna are grounded to the shell. The insulating layer is disposed on the shell and located between a ground plane of the first antenna and a ground plane of the second antenna. The isolating conductor is disposed on the insulating layer and has a slot.

Claims (11)

1. An electronic device, comprising:

a shell, having a first region and a second region, wherein a material of the shell comprising a conductive material;

an antenna unit, disposed on the shell and comprising a first antenna and a second antenna, wherein the first antenna has a first radiating portion, a first feed portion and a first ground portion, the second antenna has a second radiating portion, a second feed portion and a second ground portion, the first feed portion is connected between the first radiating portion and the first ground portion, the second feed portion is connected between the second radiating portion and the second ground portion, and the first ground portion and the second ground portion are connected to the first region and the second region respectively such that the first antenna and the second antenna are grounded to a mutual ground plane of the shell;

an insulating layer, disposed on the mutual ground plane of the shell and located between the first region and-the second region; and

an isolating conductor, disposed on the insulating layer and having a slot, wherein a length of the slot is 0.5 times or 0.25 times longer than a wavelength of the resonate frequency of the first antenna and the second antenna, and the isolating conductor does not inter-conduct with the shell.

2. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the first antenna and the second antenna have the same resonate frequency.

3. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein a material of the insulating layer comprises plastic.

4. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the shell is an appearance part of the electronic device.

5. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the insulating layer is located between the shell and the isolating conductor so that the shell and the isolating conductor have a distance in between and are equivalent to a capacitor.

6. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the slot is in a bending shape.

7. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein a material of the conductive material comprises metal or carbon fiber.
