  • Patent number: 7415248
    Abstract: A multiband radio antenna device (1) for a radio communication terminal, comprising a flat ground substrate (2), and in a plane parallel to said ground substrate a flat parasitic element (7) and a flat antenna element (3). Said antenna element has a longitudinal member (4), a first transverse member (5) extending from a first end portion of said longitudinal member, and a second transverse member (6) extending from a centre portion of said longitudinal member, wherein said parasitic element extends adjacent to an outer portion of and parallel to said second transverse member. A feeding point (8) is disposed at a center portion of said second transverse member. The parasitic element has a first ground connection (9) adjacent to said feeding point, a second ground connection (10) is disposed at an end portion of said second transverse member, and a third ground connection (11) is disposed at a center portion of said first transverse member.

  • Patent number: 7081854
    Abstract: An antenna for use in a portable electronic communication apparatus has a pattern of a conductive material. The pattern of conductive material is printed on the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) (7), comprising the RF circuitry of the portable electronic communication apparatus, to which antenna pattern is connected. The pattern comprises a first and second antenna arm, which together for a PIFA antenna and are resonating in a first and second frequency band, respectively. As an alternative, the antenna pattern forms a multi-port antenna having separate antenna arms for Rx and Tx, respectively.

  • Patent number: 6950065
    Abstract: A mobile communications device has a multifrequency band antenna with a low band portion (LB) tuned to a low frequency band, and a first high band portion (HB1) tuned to a first high frequency band at higher frequencies than the low frequency band. The low band portion (LB) and the first high band portion (HB1) have a common first grounding point (GP1), a common feeding point (FP) for feeding input signals to the antenna and for receiving signals from the antenna, and a first conductor portion (CP1), which forms part of the low band portion (LB) and of the first high band portion (HB1). The first conductor portion (CP1) is electrically connected to the first grounding point (GP1) and to the common feeding point (FP). A second high band portion (HB2) is coupled to the first conductor portion (CP1) and tuned to a second high frequency band at a higher frequency than the low frequency band and different from the first high frequency band.

  • Patent number: 6442400
    Abstract: A portable electronic communication device, such as a mobile telephone, has first and second housing elements, which are movable relative to each other, and an antenna system for electromagnetic communication within a first and a second frequency band. The antenna system is made by a printed conductive pattern, which is arranged on or in the second housing element and is connected to element for radio communication inside the first housing element. The printed pattern includes an antenna portion and an impedance matching portion for allowing the antenna portion to operate at frequencies within said first and second frequency bands.

  • Patent number: 6442377
    Abstract: A radio telephone, preferably intended for cellular telecommunication, has an apparatus housing (20) and at least one antenna (21), which is mounted to or in connection with the apparatus housing for performing the wireless communication of the radio telephone by transmitting and receiving radiofrequent electromagnetic waves in a given wavelength range. A current-reducing means (30, 31) is mounted to the apparatus housing (20) between the antenna (21) and a side (23) of the radio telephone, which during normal use faces a human user (1). The means has conductive as well as dielectric properties and is arranged to reduce or eliminate electric currents present in and/or on the apparatus housing (20) between the antenna (21) and said side (23) of the radio telephone.

  • Patent number: 6307511
    Abstract: A portable electronic communication device, such as a mobile telephone, has first and second housing elements, which are moveable relative to each other, and an antenna system for electromagnetic communication within at least two different frequency bands. The antenna system is made by a printed pattern of an electrically conductive material, which is arranged on the second housing element and is connected to elements for radio communication inside the first housing element. A first portion of the printed pattern resonates at a frequency within a first frequency band, and a second portion of the printed pattern resonates at a frequency within a second frequency band.
