  • Patent number: 9160075
    Abstract: A multi-band antenna for a portable communication device is disclosed, in which the communication device includes a first housing, a second housing and a substrate. The multi-band antenna includes a feeding portion, a system ground plane, a metal ring, a resonant cavity, a first and a second radiating portion. The system ground plane is disposed on the substrate. The metal ring is connected to the first housing, and forms a space with the first housing to accommodate the substrate, in which the metal ring is electrically coupled to the system ground plane through a plurality of ground ends. The resonant cavity is formed between the system ground plane and the metal ring to generate a first resonant mode. The first and the second radiating portion are disposed on the second housing, for generating a second and a third resonant mode, respectively.

  • Patent number: 8659488
    Abstract: An antenna assembly includes first and second antennas each generating a resonant mode to cover an operating bandwidth, and a transmission line. The first includes a first radiation unit with a feed-in portion coupled to a first feed portion in contact with a core wire of a coaxial cable and a first grounding portion. The second antenna includes a second radiation unit with a second feed-in portion coupled to a second feed portion in contact with a conductive shielding layer of the coaxial cable and a second grounding portion. The transmission line includes first and second connecting portions coupled respectively to the second feed portion of the second feed-in portion. When a signal within the operating bandwidth is transmitted through the coaxial cable, the energy of the signal is distributed among the first and second antennas.
