Abstract
An artificial magnetic conductor comprising a base board, a first conducting element, a second conducting element and a first lumped element is provided. The first conducting element is disposed at a first side of the base board. The first conducting element includes an opening. The second conducting element is disposed at a second side of the base board. The first lumped element is disposed on the corresponding first conducting element. An electronic device including the artificial magnetic conductor is also provided.
Claims10
An artificial magnetic conductor, comprising:
- a base board;
- a plurality of first conducting elements disposed at a first side of the base board and each of the first conducting elements including an opening completely encircled therein;
- a second conducting element disposed at a second side of the base board;
- a plurality of first lumped elements disposed on the corresponding first conducting elements respectively, wherein each of the first lumped elements is correspondingly disposed across the opening of the each of the first conducting elements and two ends of the each of the first lumped elements are connected to the each of the first conducting elements to form a current path consisting of one of the first lumped elements and one of the first conducting elements;
- and
- at least one second lumped element connected between two of the first conducting elements, wherein an open-ended interval is existed between the two of the first conducting elements, and the at least one second lumped element is disposed across the open-ended interval.
An electronic device, comprising a front surface and a back surface opposite to each other, the electronic device comprising:
- a back cover disposed at the back surface;
- an antenna disposed at the front surface;
- and
- at least one artificial magnetic conductor located between the back cover and the antenna, wherein the artificial magnetic conductor includes:
- a base board;
- a plurality of first conducting elements disposed at a first side of the base board and each of the first conducting elements including at least one opening completely encircled therein;
- a second conducting element disposed at a second side of the base board;
- a plurality of first lumped elements disposed on the corresponding first conducting elements respectively, wherein each of the first lumped elements is correspondingly disposed across the opening of the each of the first conducting elements and two ends of the each of the first lumped elements are connected to the each of the first conducting elements to form a current path consisting of one of the first lumped elements and one of the first conducting elements;
- and
- at least one second lumped element connected between two of the first conducting elements, wherein an open-ended interval is existed between the two of the first conducting elements, and the at least one second lumped element is disposed across the open-ended interval.
An artificial magnetic conductor, comprising:
- a base board;
- a plurality of first conducting elements disposed at a first side of the base board and arranged in a two-dimensional array, each of the plurality of first conducting elements comprising an opening completely encircled therein and a plurality of slots;
- a second conducting element disposed at a second side of the base board;
- a plurality of first lumped elements, wherein each of the plurality of first lumped elements is disposed across at least one of the slots of the corresponding first conducting element and two ends of the each of the first lumped elements are connected to the corresponding first conductive element to form a current path consisting of one of the first lumped elements and the corresponding first conducting element, and
- at least one second lumped element connected between two of the first conducting elements, wherein an open-ended interval is existed between the two of the first conducting elements, and the at least one second lumped element is disposed across the open-ended interval.
