Abstract

A hybrid antenna structure includes a metal cavity, a dielectric substrate, and an antenna pattern. The metal cavity has a slot. The dielectric substrate is embedded in the slot of the metal cavity. The dielectric substrate has a first surface and a second surface which are opposite to each other. The antenna pattern is distributed over the first surface and the second surface of the dielectric substrate. The slot of the metal cavity and the antenna pattern are excited to generate a first frequency band, a second frequency band, and a third frequency band.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A hybrid antenna structure, comprising:
a metal cavity, having a slot; a dielectric substrate, embedded in the slot of the metal cavity, wherein the dielectric substrate has a first surface and a second surface opposite to each other; and an antenna pattern, distributed over the first surface and the second surface of the dielectric substrate; wherein the slot of the metal cavity and the antenna pattern are excited to generate a first frequency band, a second frequency band, and a third frequency band; wherein a length of the slot of the metal cavity is from 0.25 to 0.5 wavelength of the first frequency band; wherein the antenna pattern comprises: a main radiation element, having a feeding point and a grounding point, wherein the main radiation element is disposed on the second surface of the dielectric substrate; a first auxiliary radiation element, extending across the main radiation element; and a second auxiliary radiation element, extending across the main radiation element, wherein the first auxiliary radiation element and the second auxiliary radiation element are disposed on the first surface of the dielectric substrate; wherein both the first auxiliary radiation element and the second auxiliary radiation element are floating.

2 . The hybrid antenna structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the metal cavity is configured to improve noise sensitivity of the hybrid antenna structure.

3 . The hybrid antenna structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the metal cavity is substantially a hollow cuboid without any upper cover.

4 . The hybrid antenna structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the antenna pattern belongs to a PIFA (Planar Inverted F Antenna).

5 . The hybrid antenna structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the main radiation element substantially has a relatively long L-shape.

6 . The hybrid antenna structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each of the first auxiliary radiation element and the second auxiliary radiation element substantially has a relatively short L-shape.

7 . The hybrid antenna structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first frequency band is from 2400 MHz to 2500 MHz, the second frequency band is from 5150 MHz to 5850 MHz, and the third frequency band is from 5925 MHz to 7125 MHz.

8 . The hybrid antenna structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a length of the first auxiliary radiation element is substantially equal to 0.25 wavelength of the third frequency band.

9 . The hybrid antenna structure as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a length of the second auxiliary radiation element is substantially equal to 0.25 wavelength of the third frequency band.
