the first radiation layer comprises at least one radiation unit, each of which comprises a radiation portion and at least one feed line electrically connected to the radiation portion; and an orthographic projection of each of the radiation portion and the at least one feed line on the first cover plate at least partially overlaps with an orthographic projection of the first reference electrode layer on the first cover plate; and
the first radiation layer and the first reference electrode layer each comprises a metal mesh structure, and orthographic projections of hollowed-out portions of the metal mesh structures of the first radiation layer and the first reference electrode layer on the first cover plate overlap with each other.
2. The antenna of claim 1 , wherein in each radiation unit, the at least one feed line comprises a first feed line and a second feed line; and a node connected between the first feed line and the radiation portion is a first node; and a node connected between the second feed line and the radiation portion is a second node; and
in the radiation unit, extending directions of a line connecting the first node and a center of the radiation portion and a line connecting the second node and the center of the radiation portion intersect with each other.
3. The antenna of claim 2 , wherein the radiation unit further comprises a first branch connected to the first feed line and a second branch connected to the second feed line;
orthographic projections of a first end of the first feed line away from the radiation portion and a second end of the second feed line away from the radiation portion on the first cover plate are opposite to each other in a first direction;
the first branch and the second branch are connected to the first end and the second end, respectively; and
orthographic projections of the first branch and the second branch on the first cover plate extend along the first direction and are opposite to each other in the first direction, and are within the orthographic projections of the first end of the first feed line and the second end of the second feed line.
4. The antenna of claim 1 , wherein the first radiation layer is arranged on a first base material, which is connected to the first cover plate by a first adhesive layer.
5. The antenna of claim 1 , wherein the first reference electrode layer is on a second base material, which is connected to the second cover plate by a second adhesive layer.
6. The antenna of claim 1 , wherein the metal mesh structure has a line width in a range from 2 μm to 30 μm; a line spacing in a range from 50 μm to 200 μm; and a line thickness in a range from 1 μm to 10 μm.
7. The antenna of claim 1 , wherein the first radiation layer further comprises a redundant electrode, which is disconnected from the radiation portion and the feed line, and is arranged in a same layer as the radiation portion and the feed line.
8. The antenna of claim 1 , wherein the connection side plate comprises a first side sub-plate connected to the first cover plate and a second side sub-plate connected to the second cover plate; and the first side sub-plate and the second side sub-plate are connected in a plug-in manner.
9. The antenna of claim 1 , wherein the radiation portion comprises a center-symmetric pattern.
10. The antenna of claim 1 , wherein the first cover plate and the second cover plate each has a thickness in a range from 1 mm to 3 mm.
11. An electronic device, comprising the antenna of claim 1 .
12. The antenna of claim 3 , wherein the first radiation layer is arranged on a first base material, which is connected to the first cover plate by a first adhesive layer.
13. The antenna of claim 12 , wherein the first reference electrode layer is on a second base material, which is connected to the second cover plate by a second adhesive layer.
14. The antenna of claim 11 , wherein the first radiation layer further comprises a redundant electrode, which is disconnected from the radiation portion and the feed line, and is arranged in a same layer as the radiation portion and the feed line.
15. The antenna of claim 14 , wherein the connection side plate comprises a first side sub-plate connected to the first cover plate and a second side sub-plate connected to the second cover plate; and the first side sub-plate and the second side sub-plate are connected in a plug-in manner.
