Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

In an impedance conversion circuit, since, in a low band, an absolute value of impedance of a primary side coil is smaller than an absolute value of impedance of a capacitor, a high-frequency signal in a low band propagates through a transformer. Thus, impedance matching of a high-frequency signal in a low band is performed by the transformer. Since, in a high band, the absolute value of the impedance of the capacitor is smaller than the absolute value of the impedance of the primary side coil, a high-frequency signal in a high band propagates through the capacitor. Thus, impedance matching of a high-frequency signal in a high band is performed in the capacitor. Accordingly, impedance matching between a high frequency circuit and an antenna element is performed in a wide frequency band.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An impedance conversion circuit for use in an antenna device that transmits and receives a high-frequency signal in a frequency band including a first frequency band and a second frequency band of which the second frequency band is higher than the first frequency band, the impedance conversion circuit comprising: a transformer that includes a primary side coil and a secondary side coil and is connected between a feeding port and an antenna port; and a firs…
