PLANAR ANTENNA ASSEMBLY WITH IMPEDANCE MATCHING AND REDUCED USER INTERACTION, FOR A RF COMMUNICATION EQUIPMENT.

摘要

A planar antenna assembly (AA), for an RF communication module, comprises i) a ground plane (GP) and a feeding circuit (FC) defined on a lace of a printed circuit board (PCB), ii) a feed tab (FT1) and a first shorting tab (ST1) coupled to the feeding circuit (FC) and the ground plane (GP) respectively, and iii) a radiating element (RE) comprising a first part (P1) connected to the feed tab (FT) and first shorting tab (ST1), located in a first plane approximately perpendicular to the ground plane (GP) and in which a slot (SO), comprising opened (OE) and closed (CE) ends, is defined, and a second part (P2) extending approximately perpendicularly from the first part (P1) to be located in a second plane lacing and approximately parallel to the ground plane (GP). The feed tab (FT) and first shorting tab (ST1) are parallel and close to each other and connected to the first part (P1) at a chosen place located at a chosen distance away from the slot opened end (OE) in order to define a chosen input impedance.
