Dual-resonance-based wideband antenna for integrated module applications

초록

A wideband module antenna comprised of a small ground radiation antenna in the module and a parasitic radiation loop in the evaluation board is proposed. Unlike conventional ground radiation antennas, the ground radiation antenna in the module works as an exciter to the parasitic radiation loop, which further couples with the evaluation board as a radiator. Thus, a space-saving antenna is obtained with wide bandwidth and easy tuning. Accordingly, dual resonance can be generated by tuning the resonant frequencies of the ground radiation antenna and the parasitic radiation loop equally. When measured, the antennas have wide bandwidths (2:1 voltage standing wave ratio bandwidth of 270 MHz) and high efficiency (ranging from 44 to 74%).
