Abstract
The invention relates to a wide-band planar antenna. The wide-band planar antenna includes a substrate, a first radiator, a second radiator, a third radiator, a ground, and a signal source. The first radiator, the second radiator, and the third radiator are designed in a manner that the antenna of the invention can be applied to WiMAX communication devices. Besides, the wide-band planar antenna of the invention is more efficient than a general wide-band antenna and saves a significant amount of electrical power, and therefore, the antenna is particularly suitable for portable communicational devices.
Claims16
A wideband planar antenna, comprising:
- a substrate including a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface;
- a first radiator disposed on the first surface;
- a second radiator connecting to the first radiator at a connection part, wherein the second radiator is disposed on either the first surface or the second surface;
- a third radiator disposed on either the first surface or the second surface;
- a ground connecting to the third radiator, wherein the ground includes a first ground part and a second ground part, the third radiator includes a shorter side and a longer side, the shorter side connects to the ground, a lengthwise direction of the shorter side is perpendicular to a lengthwise direction of the longer side, the longer side extends toward the first radiator, and the second radiator is disposed between the third radiator and the ground;
- and
- a signal source feeding a high frequency signal including a positive signal and a negative signal, wherein the positive signal is directly fed through the connection part to excite the first radiator and the second radiator to generate a first frequency band mode and a second frequency band mode respectively, and the negative signal couples with the ground to be fed into and excite the third radiator to form a third frequency band mode.
