Abstract: Provided are a terminal performing a wake-up with consumption of low power and a wake-up method performed by the terminal. The terminal includes: a passive filter outputting a correlation signal between a received signal and a reference signal; and a wake-up controller controlling whether to wake up a communication module, using the correlation signal output from the passive filter. Thus, a wake-up signal can be processed using the passive element that does not consume power during its operation. Also, a wake-up of a communication module can be controlled using the result of processing the wake-up signal. As a result, power consumption can be greatly reduced during the wake-up.

Abstract: Disclosed is a radio communication terminal having an antenna device, which is capable of feeding power to an internal antenna using a simple configuration while achieving a reduction in SAR, by using a dipole antenna as the internal antenna. In the antenna device, a power feeding circuit and a primary radiation element are mounted to a printed circuit board (PCB). Transmission power from a transmitting/receiving circuit is fed to the primary radiation element via a coaxial cable by the power feeding circuit. The dipole antenna is attached to an inner surface, outer surface, or recessed portion of the case of the terminal in such a fashion that it faces the primary radiation element while being spaced apart from the primary radiation element. A speaker is attached to a surface of the PCB opposite to the PCB surface to which the primary radiation element is mounted.

Abstract: Disclosed is a portable communication terminal having an antenna structure capable of achieving a reduction in specific absorption rate (SAR) without preventing earth current from flowing through a PCB of the terminal. A sleeve antenna is arranged opposite to a speaker mounted to a printed circuit board (PCB) in the body of the terminal. The sleeve antenna includes an antenna element formed on an antenna PCB, and a dielectric sleeve. The sleeve antenna is connected to a transmitting/receiving circuit via a coaxial cable. The dielectric sleeve is mounted to a tip of the coaxial cable. The coaxial cable has an outer conductor connected to the inner peripheral conductor of the dielectric sleeve, and a central conductor connected to the feeding point of the antenna element. In accordance with this configuration, there is no antenna current flowing through the PCB. The PCB also serves as an electromagnetic shield plate. Accordingly, a reduction in SAR is achieved.

The terminal includes two dipole antennas mounted on an antenna printed circuit board (PCB) mounted to a PCB of the terminal and respectively adapted to operate at usable frequencies f1 and f2. A coaxial cable is connected at its end to the dipole antennas, and a cylindrical bazooka type balun (bazooka) for multiple frequencies is fitted around the end of the coaxial cable. The bazooka includes a first dielectric cylinder, a second dielectric cylinder, and a conductor cylinder. The dielectric cylinders are coaxially fitted in the dielectric cylinder. The dielectric cylinders are used for the frequencies f1 and f2 while having electrical lengths corresponding to the frequencies f1 and f2, respectively.

Abstract: Disclosed is a portable communication terminal including a miniature and inexpensive internal type antenna capable of achieving a reduction in SAR. A 1/2&lgr; dipole antenna is mounted on a surface of a printed circuit board (PCB), mounted in a telephone body, opposite to the PCB surface to which a speaker is mounted. The dipole antenna is formed in the form of an antenna pattern on an antenna PCB arranged on the PCB of the phone body. In accordance with this configuration, resonant current flows only through the dipole antenna. Also, no earth current flows through the PCB. Accordingly, radiating electromagnetic fields are shielded by the ground pattern of the PCB. Since the head of the user is positioned close to the speaker of the PCB under the condition of use of the portable telephone, the PCB serves as a shield plate for shielding radiating electromagnetic fields, thereby reducing the intensity of electromagnetic fields acting around the head. Thus, a reduction in SAR is achieved.
