ANTENNA AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMPRISING SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18075815 titled 'ANTENNA AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMPRISING SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electronic device with a housing, a display, and an antenna module. The antenna module includes a printed circuit board (PCB) with antennas and an IC chip. An insulation member covers the IC chip and has a second antenna on its surface. The IC chip feeds the first antenna, which radiates a first signal, while the second antenna radiates a second signal.

  • The electronic device has a housing with a display visible through a front plate.
  • The antenna module is located in the space between the front and rear plates.
  • The antenna module includes a PCB with antennas and an IC chip.
  • The IC chip is placed on the second surface of the PCB.
  • An insulation member covers the IC chip and has a second antenna on its surface.
  • The IC chip feeds the first antenna, which radiates a first signal of a first frequency band.
  • The second antenna radiates a second signal.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Mobile phones and smartphones
  • Tablets and laptops
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices
  • Wearable devices such as smartwatches

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient use of space within the electronic device
  • Simultaneous transmission of multiple signals
  • Reduction of interference between antennas

Benefits of this technology:

  • Compact design
  • Improved signal transmission and reception
  • Enhanced functionality of electronic devices
  • Better user experience with reliable wireless connectivity.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device comprises: a housing including a front plate, a rear plate, and side portions surrounding a space formed by the front plate and the rear plate; a display visible through the front plate; and an antenna module disposed in the space, wherein the antenna module comprises: a printed circuit board (PCB) including a first surface facing a first direction and a second surface facing a second direction opposite to the first direction; at least one first antenna disposed on the first surface of the PCB; an IC chip disposed on the second surface of the PCB; an insulation member comprising an insulating material covering at least a portion of the IC chip; and a second antenna disposed on a surface of the insulation member facing the second direction, wherein the IC chip may be configured to feed the first antenna, the first antenna may be configured to radiate a first signal of a first frequency band, and the second antenna may be configured to radiate a second signal.
