Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An antenna structure for MIMO application includes a substrate, a first antenna element, and a second antenna element. A metal ground layer covers a portion of a first surface of the substrate, and the first antenna element is arranged on the metal ground layer. The first antenna element includes an open-slot, which extending from an edge of the metal ground layer toward an inner portion of the metal ground layer, and a signal feed-in member arranged on a second surface of the substrate and spatially corresponding to an open end of the open-slot. The second antenna element is arranged on the first surface of the substrate adjacent to the first antenna element and extending away from the metal ground layer, and includes a signal feed-in portion arranged adjacent to the open end of the open-slot, and electronically connects to the signal feed-in member.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An antenna structure for MIMO application, the antenna structure comprising: at least one substrate comprising a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface; a metal ground layer covering a portion of the first surface of the substrate; a first antenna element arranged on the metal ground layer, the first antenna element comprising: an open-slot extending from an edge of the metal ground layer toward an inner portion of the metal gr…
