  • Publication number: 20080136726
    Abstract: An antenna has a ground plane, a radiating member, a signal-feeding member and two grounding supports. The radiating member is suspended over and separated from the ground plane and has two opposite non-radiating edges. Each non-radiating edge has a middle section. Each grounding support is connected perpendicularly to the middle section of one non-radiating edge of the radiating member and the ground plane. The grounding supports connected between the radiating member and the ground plane excellently improve the combination of the radiating member and the ground plane to prevent the antenna from inadvertently disassembling.

  • Patent number: 7352329
    Abstract: A multi-band antenna with the broadband function is based upon a planar inverted-F antenna with two conductive arms and a ground. The two conductive arms extend from the ground near the two opposite ends of the ground. Two radiation plates of the two conductive arms extend toward each other. The multi-band antenna has a sufficient large band at high frequencies. Since the conductive arms are disposed close to the two ends of the ground, operations of bending the two conductive arms or soldering a feed wires are simpler and have a higher yield.

  • Publication number: 20070146208
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an antenna, in which the metallic patches and the feed network are spaced apart from the ground plate. The metallic patches as well as the feed network and the ground plate board define a space therebetween, thus the antenna has better pattern and grain effects. Furthermore, the most important technique feature consists in that the metallic patches and the feed network are integrally formed by bending a single piece of metal plate, thus the present invention generates such effects therefore improving the design flexibility of the antenna and also simplifying the production process.
