  • Publication number: 20190229755
    Abstract: An antenna apparatus, an electronic apparatus and an antenna modification method are provided. The electronic apparatus includes a multiplexer and the antenna apparatus. The multiplexer combines a control signal and a first radio frequency (RF) signal to form a combination signal. The antenna apparatus includes a feeding portion, a de-multiplexer, a modification circuit and a radiation portion. The feeding portion receives the combination signal. The de-multiplexer separates the combination signal into the control signal and the first RF signal. The modification circuit receives the control signal and the first RF signal, and modifies an impedance. The first RF signal is influenced by the impedance to form a second RF signal. The radiation portion receives the second RF signal. Accordingly, merely single cable would be needed for feeding signals into the antenna apparatus.

  • Patent number: 8730107
    Abstract: A multi-frequency antenna comprises a first conductor, a second conductor, a grounding member, and a third conductor. The first and second conductors are respectively arranged on a first plane and a second plane. The grounding member is arranged on a third plane existing between the first and second planes. The third conductor is connected with the first conductor and arranged on the first plane also. The first and third conductors are respectively coupled to the radiated signals of the second conductor to form a first electrical path and a second electrical path. The first electrical path and the second electrical path have a phase difference of 180 degrees. The present invention features the additional third conductor. The third conductor and the first conductor are coupled to the radiated signals of the second conductor to generate opposite-phase signals. Thus are counterbalanced the interferences among the antenna systems of an identical frequency band.
