  • Patent number: 11843172
    Abstract: A patch antenna includes a dielectric substrate formed by a high dielectric coefficient material covered with a soft material. The dielectric substrate has a first surface, an opposite second surface, and surrounding side surfaces there between. The patch antenna further includes a radiating metal arm formed on at least the first surface with a thin metal layer in a specific shape, a grounding metal plate disposed on the second surface, and a parasitic metal arm extending from the grounding metal plate towards the first surface via at least one of the side surfaces. The parasitic metal arm is approximate but not connected to the radiating metal arm. The radiation metal arm further includes an enclosed slot, together with the parasitic metal arm, improve the working bandwidth and high directivity of the antenna.

  • Publication number: 20230231320
    Abstract: An array antenna includes a flexible substrate formed by stacked liquid crystal polymer (LCP) layers and has at least one feed point. At least one serial antenna is arranged on the flexible substrate, and a microstrip is extended from the feed point to connect a plurality of radiating elements in series to form the serial antenna. The tail end one of the radiating elements of the serial antenna is connected to one end of a ground microstrip, and another end of the ground microstrip is short-circuited to the ground. The length of the ground microstrip is approximately one fourth of the wavelength of the center frequency of the array antenna. Feeding sections where microstrips feeding to the radiating elements are in a horn and/or groove shape. Desired frequency and bandwidth may be obtained by adjusting lengths and widths of feeding sections respectively.

  • Publication number: 20130293442
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an antenna having a connecting circuit, which includes a substrate, a grounding metal strip, a first radiating metal strip, a second radiating metal strip and a connecting circuit. The first radiating metal strip is not connected to the grounding metal strip or the second radiating metal strip. The connecting circuit connects different positions on the grounding metal strip and on the second radiating metal strip, so as to form a plurality of resonant paths of different lengths between the grounding metal strip and the second radiating metal strip. Thereby, the frequency of the antenna varies between different values, so that the range of the application and the practicality of the antenna are increased.
