  • Publication number: 20090231200
    Abstract: A multi-antenna module comprises a ground plane, a primary conductor, a secondary conductor and a plurality of coupling conductors, wherein the framework of the parallel primary radiation arm and secondary radiation arm can infinitely expand the number of antenna units in the same antenna structure. The capacitive coupling effect of parallel radiation arms and the inductance of the radiation arms themselves can effectively reduce the signal interference between antennae, whereby a plurality of antennae can be integrated to achieve antenna miniaturization. The primary conductor, the secondary conductor and the coupling conductors are all connected to the same ground plane, whereby the layout space is reduced, and the multi-antenna module is easy-to-assemble for various electronic devices.

    Abstract: An assembly antenna array comprises a ground plate, a pair of first radiation conductors, a first transmission member, first support rods, a pair of second conductors, a second transmission member, and second support rods. The ground plate has an upper surface and a lower surface. The layout size of the assembly antenna array is reduced via arranging the arrayed first radiation conductors and the arrayed second radiation conductors vertically to each other. The mutual interference between the transmission members is inhibited via respectively arranging the transmission members and the feeding ends of the two pairs of radiation conductors on different surfaces. A feeder cable is connected to an appropriate position of each transmission member to enable each pair of radiation conductors to have a phase difference of 180 degrees, whereby cross-polarization is reduced, and the gain are increased.
