US 2014/0191918 A1 · OMNIDIRECTIONAL ANTENNA

Abstract

Disclosure is related to an omnidirectional antenna. Structurally the antenna includes multiple antenna units which are oppositely disposed around the edges of a grounded substrate. The antenna is able to handle at least two bands of electromagnetic signals. The body of each antenna unit includes a radiating member which is extended from an inverse-F portion type structure at the upper half of the body. A downward-protrudent feeding member is formed at the middle portion of the radiating member. A connecting member electrically connected to the substrate is formed at the lower half of the body, and associated with the radiating member. At least two upward-protrudent grounding members are formed onto the connecting member. The grounding members are jointly grounded with the substrate. It is noted that the feeding member is extended in the midst of the two grounding members. The opposite antenna units are mutually served be reflectors.

Dependent claims

An omnidirectional antenna, comprising:

a substrate, which is a grounded plane substrate;
a plurality of antenna units disposed in a peripheral region of the substrate, wherein the every antenna unit comprises:
a strip-shaped radiating member formed in an upper half of the antenna unit, and extended from an inverse-F portion;
a downward-protrudent feeding member formed in a middle portion of the radiating member;
a connecting member formed in a lower half of the antenna unit, being a member interconnecting the antenna unit and the substrate, and connected with the radiating member;
and
at least two upward-protrudent grounding members formed on the connecting member, and jointly grounded with the substrate through the connecting member, wherein the feeding member is extended to a portion between the two grounding members.
