Mobile terminal
Provided is a mobile terminal comprising: a body: a ground embedded inside the body and having a vertical length longer than a horizontal length; a side case positioned on the periphery of a side surface of the body and comprising a first side member and a second side member positioned on the left and right side surfaces of the body, respectively; a first patch for connecting one end of the first side member and one end of the second side member; a second patch for connecting the other end of the first side member and the other end of the second side member; and a power supply part connected to the second patch, wherein the first side member, the second side member, the first patch, and the second patch from a loop form a loop ring-patch antenna.
1. A mobile terminal comprising:
a body;
a ground loaded in the body and having a vertical length that is longer than a horizontal length;
a side case arranged around a circumference of the lateral surface of the body and comprising first and second side members provided in left and right lateral surfaces of the body and;
a first patch connecting one end of the first side member and one end of the second side member with each other;
a second patch connecting the other end of the first side member and the other end of the second side member with each other; and
a feeding portion connected to the second patch,
wherein the first side member, the second side member, the first patch and the second patch form a loop-shaped ring patch antenna.
2. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the feeding portion is connected in a middle area of the second patch.
3. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the side case comprises,
a third side member having one end facing one end of the first side case and the other end facing one end of the second side case;
a fourth side member having one end facing the other end of the first side case and the other end facing the other end of the second side case; and
first through fourth slits provided between the first through fourth side members and comprising a non-conductive material, respectively.
4. The mobile terminal of claim 3 , wherein the third side member comprises a boosting slot spaced apart from the ground from one end to a ground portion.
5. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the ring patch antenna is located in a middle area of the body in a vertical direction.
6. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the vertical length of the ground is corresponding to a half of the wavelength of the resonance frequency of the ring patch antenna.
7. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the length of the ring patch antenna is corresponding to the wavelength of the resonance frequency of the ring patch antenna.
8. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the width of the ring patch antenna is 0.8 mm or more and 2 mm or less.
9. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , further comprising:
a rear case provided to cover a rear surface of the body,
wherein the first and second patches are attached to an inner surface of the rear case.
10. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the ground comprises at least one of
a display unit disposed on a front surface of the body or a metal plate provided to support a rear surface of the display unit.
11. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the respective first and second patches comprise a curved portion.
12. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , further comprising:
a coil antenna provided in a rear surface of the case and surrounded by the ring patch antenna.
13. The mobile terminal of claim 12 , wherein the first and second patches are spaced a distance of 10 mm or more apart from the coil antenna.
