Built-in antenna for electronic device
A built-in antenna for an electronic device is provided. The built-in antenna includes a substrate, a 1st antenna radiator with at least two radiating portions, a 2nd antenna radiator, and a switching means. The substrate has a conductive area and a non-conductive area. The 2nd antenna radiator is arranged within the non-conductive area of the substrate and fed by a Radio Frequency (RF) end of the substrate. The 2nd antenna radiator is configured to operate at a band different from at least one operating band of the 1st antenna radiator, and is fed by the RF end in a position adjacent the 1st antenna radiator. The switching means switches to selectively feed the 1st antenna radiator and the 2nd antenna radiator.
1. An electronic device comprising:
a substrate having a conductive area and a non-conductive area; and
a built-in antenna, comprising:
a first antenna radiator with at least first and second radiating portions arranged within the non-conductive area of the substrate, wherein the first antenna radiator is fed by a Radio Frequency (RF) end of the substrate, and is connected to the conductive area;
a second antenna radiator configured to operate at a band different from operating bands of the at least first and second radiating portions of the first antenna radiator, and fed by the RF end in a position adjacent to the first antenna radiator; and
a switching element switching to selectively feed the first antenna radiator and the second antenna radiator;
wherein the second antenna radiator is a monopole type antenna having a T-shaped output portion; and
wherein the first antenna radiator has a first radiating portion for low frequency band operation having an input portion in the shape of an L and an output portion in the shape of a U, and a second radiating portion for higher frequency band operation, oriented perpendicular to a grounding portion connected to near ends of each of the first and second radiating portions.
