Patent number: 9935380Abstract: The antenna device includes a first antenna module and a second antenna module. The first antenna module includes a number of first antennas disposed at intervals. The second antenna module includes a number of second antennas disposed at intervals within a space surrounded by the first antennas. The first and second antennas are of different polarization directions. In one embodiment, the first antennas are horizontally polarized antennas having omnidirectional field patterns. The second antennas are inverted F antennas. By arranging the first and second antennas along an outer ring and an inner ring respectively, the distance between the first and second antenna modules are maximized. Furthermore, by having the first and second antennas with orthogonal polarization directions, the mutual interference between the radiation energy of the first and second antenna modules is effectively reduced.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2016Date of Patent: April 3, 2018Inventors: Chih-Jen Cheng, Chih-Kai Liu, Kui-Hsien Huang

Publication number: 20160268698Abstract: An antenna module and an antenna structure thereof are provided. The antenna structure includes a baseboard, secondary antenna units, and a primary antenna unit. The baseboard has an irregular shape and is electrically connected to a ground terminal. The primary antenna unit vertically extends from an edge of the baseboard, includes a primary signal fed-in portion for receiving a primary current, and provides a primary current path with the baseboard. When the primary current flows along the primary current path, a primary radiation field is formed. The secondary antenna units are around the primary antenna unit and vertically extend from other edges of the baseboard. Each of the secondary antenna units includes a secondary signal fed-in portion for receiving a secondary current and provides a secondary current path with the baseboard. When the secondary current flows along the secondary current path, a secondary radiation field is formed.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 28, 2015Publication date: September 15, 2016Inventors: San-Yuan Wu, Chih-Kai Liu
