Abstract
An ultra-wide band (UWB) antenna and a plug-and-play (PnP) device using the same are provided. A dielectric substrate of the PnP device has a ground plane. The UWB antenna includes a radiating metal plate and a feeding portion. The radiating metal plate is in a non-ground region of the dielectric substrate and has at least a slit cut. An opening of the slit cut is at the edge of the radiating metal plate facing the ground plane. The feeding portion is also at the edge of the radiating metal plate facing the ground plate for feeding a signal to the antenna.
Claims8
An ultra-wide band (UWB) antenna applied to a plug-and-play device, the plug-and-play device includes a dielectric substrate having a ground plane, the UWB antenna comprising:
- a radiating metal plate disposed in a non-ground region of the dielectric substrate and having at least one slit cut formed by at least two cut segments, an opening of the slit cut being at an edge of the radiating metal plate facing the ground plane, wherein the slit cut extends from the edge of the radiating metal plate and into the radiating metal plate towards a short edge of the dielectric substrate and along a longitudinal edge of the dielectric substrate;
- and
- a feeding portion disposed on an apex of the radiating metal plate facing the ground plane for feeding a signal to the antenna;
- wherein the radiating metal plate is disconnected from the ground plane;
- and the radiating metal plate has two slit cuts on two sides of the feeding portion.
A plug-and-play device comprising:
- a main body comprising a dielectric substrate, a ground plane being on the dielectric substrate;
- and
- an ultra-wide band antenna comprising:
- a radiating metal plate disposed in a non-ground region of the dielectric substrate and having at least one slit cut formed by at least two cut segments, an opening of the slit cut being at an edge of the radiating metal plate facing the ground plane, wherein the slit cut extends from the edge of the radiating metal plate and into the radiating metal plate towards a short edge of the dielectric substrate and along a longitudinal edge of the dielectric substrate;
- and
- a feeding portion disposed on an apex of the radiating metal plate facing the ground plane for feeding a signal to the antenna;
- wherein the radiating metal plate is disconnected from the ground plane;
- and the radiating metal plate has two slit cuts on two sides of the feeding portion.
