  • Patent number: 11955721
    Abstract: An antenna apparatus, a communication apparatus, and a steering adjustment method thereof are provided. The antenna apparatus includes an antenna structure. The antenna structure includes an antenna unit. The antenna unit includes i feeding ports, where i is a positive integer larger than 2. A vector of each of the feeding ports is controlled independently. In the steering adjustment method, a designated direction is determined, where the designated direction corresponds to beam directionality of the antenna structure. In addition, the vectors of the feeding ports of the antenna unit are configured according to the designated direction. Accordingly, the antenna size can be reduced, and beam steering in multiple directions would be achieved.

  • Publication number: 20230352827
    Abstract: An antenna apparatus and a control method are provided. The antenna apparatus includes a first antenna, a second antenna, and a movable mechanism. The first antenna is operated on a first frequency band. The second antenna surrounds the first antenna and is operated on a second frequency band. The first and second antennas are disposed on the movable mechanism. The movable mechanism is further configured to steer a direction of the first and second antennas. Accordingly, the requirements of multiple frequency bands and beam scanning may be fulfilled.

  • Patent number: 10483647
    Abstract: An antenna device is disclosed. The antenna device includes a first radiator, a second radiator, and a first reflection board. The first radiator is configured to radiate a first radio wave comprising a first wavelength value. The second radiator is configured to radiate a second radio wave comprising a second wavelength value. The first reflection board is located between the first radiator and the second radiator. A first ratio between the first wavelength value and a length value of the first reflection board is less than 0.5, and a second ratio between the second wavelength value and the length value of the first reflection board is greater than 0.5.

  • Patent number: 10381747
    Abstract: A polarized antenna includes a load board, a first radiation plate, M pieces of feeding part and N pieces of grounded part. The load board includes a conductive layer, and the first radiation plate is located above the load board and has a first resonance gap with the conductive layer. The M pieces of feeding part are located under the first radiation plate and are insulated from the conductive layer, and at least a part of each feeding part is covered by the first radiation plate and is used to have signal transmission with the first radiation plate. M is a positive integer larger than 2. The N pieces of grounded part are located on the load board and electrically connected to the conductive layer, and N is a positive integer larger than 1.

  • Patent number: 10014592
    Abstract: An antenna includes a high band configuration, a low band configuration, and two signal integration modules. The high band configuration includes two three-dimensional feed-ins and a resonator. The three-dimensional feed-ins respectively receive first band signals perpendicular to each other. The resonator is disposed above the three-dimensional feed-ins and is coupled with the three-dimensional feed-ins. The orthogonal projection of the resonator at least partially overlaps with the three-dimensional feed-ins. The low band configuration includes two dipole feed-ins. The dipole feed-ins is disposed above the high band configuration and respectively receives second band signals perpendicular to each other. The signal integration modules are electrically connected to the high band configuration and the low band configuration and integrate the first band signals and the second band signals into broadband signals.
