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

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18244039 titled 'ANTENNA AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMPRISING SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electronic device with an antenna structure and a wireless communication circuit. Here are the key points:

  • The device has a housing and an antenna structure.
  • The antenna structure includes a substrate with two surfaces - one facing a first direction and the other facing the opposite direction.
  • There is at least one antenna element on the substrate that creates a beam pattern in the first direction.
  • A support part is placed corresponding to the second substrate surface.
  • A conductive bracket with an extension part is positioned higher than the second substrate surface relative to the support part.
  • The device also includes a wireless communication circuit that can transmit and/or receive wireless signals in a specific frequency band using the antenna element.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Mobile phones and smartphones
  • Wireless routers and access points
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices
  • Wearable devices like smartwatches and fitness trackers

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Provides a compact and efficient antenna structure for wireless communication devices.
  • Helps in improving signal strength and coverage in the desired direction.
  • Reduces interference from other directions.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved wireless signal transmission and reception.
  • Enhanced performance and reliability of wireless communication devices.
  • Compact design allows for smaller and sleeker electronic devices.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device according to various embodiments may comprise: a housing; an antenna structure comprising a substrate, which comprises a first substrate surface facing a first direction and a second substrate surface facing a second direction opposite from the first substrate surface, and at least one antenna element disposed on the substrate so as to form a beam pattern in the first direction; a first support part disposed so as to at least partially correspond to the second substrate surface; a conductive bracket comprising at least one conductive extension part disposed higher than the second substrate surface with respect to the first support part; and a wireless communication circuit configured to transmit and/or receive a wireless signal in a designated frequency band by means of the at least one antenna element.
