Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an antenna which can cope with plural frequency bands by switching the grounded and non-grounded states of a control electrode that is placed near the open end of a radiation electrode via a gap and accordingly switching the resonance frequency of the antenna. SOLUTION: A ground electrode 3 is formed on the entire surface of on one of both main sides of a rectangular parallelepiped-shape dielectric substrate 2 together with a radiation electrode 4 formed on the other main side of the substrate 2 respectively, and one of both ends of the electrode 4 is grounded. In such a constitution, a surface mounting antenna 1 is produced. The signal inputted to a feeding electrode 6 from a signal source 10 is inputted to the electrode 4 via a 1st gap 5 formed near the open end of the electrode 4. Thus, the electrode 4 resonances as a microstrip line resonator whose one of both ends is opened with the other end having its short circuit length of λ/4. A control electrode 8 is placed near the open end of the electrode 4 via a 2nd gap 7, and the grounded and non-grounded states of the electrode 8 are controlled by a switch 9. When the switch 9 is turned on, the capacities generated between the electrode 4 and the electrode 8 are applied in parallel to each other to lower the resonance frequency.

However, in the case of the above surface mount antenna, there is a problem that the frequency band of the surface mount antenna is narrowed when the dielectric constant of the base is increased. Therefore, for example, in the case of a mobile phone of the GSM system, an antenna corresponding to two frequency bands of a transmitting side frequency band (890 to 915 MHz) and a receiving side frequency band (935 to 960 MHz) is required. Two surface-mount antennas cannot cope because of their narrow frequency band.
It is necessary to take measures such as combining two surface mount antennas. For this reason, in addition to the increase in the number of the surface mount antennas to two, an external circuit for connecting the two surface mount antennas is required, which causes an increase in cost.

In the antenna device 49 configured as described above, the signal input from the signal source 48 to the feed electrode 44 causes the capacitance C9 formed between the feed electrode 44 and the open end of the radiation electrode 43 to pass through. The radiation is input to the radiation electrode 43 via the radiating electrode 43. The radiation electrode 43 resonates as a parallel circuit of the inductance component of the radiation electrode 43 itself and the capacitance C10. Then, a part of the resonance power is radiated to the space, so that the frequency switching type surface mount antenna 40 functions as a loop antenna.

Here, the capacitance C11 is determined by the switch 47
Is off, no connection is made, but switch 47
Is turned on, the open end of the radiation electrode 43 and the ground electrode 4
2 is connected in parallel with the capacitance C10. Therefore, the resonance frequency of the frequency switching type surface mount antenna 40 is lower when the switch 47 is on than by the capacitance C11 when the switch 47 is off. As a result, the antenna device 49 can function as an antenna corresponding to a high frequency band when the switch 47 is off, and can function as an antenna corresponding to a low frequency band when the switch 47 is on. This is for example GSM
It is particularly useful when a diode is used as a switch in a system in which the frequency band on the transmitting side is lower than the frequency band on the receiving side, such as a cellular phone of the system. That is,
When transmitting a signal in which the level of the signal flowing through the antenna is high, a diode which causes signal distortion is reduced by O.
It can be used in the N state, and the frequency can be switched with little distortion. In this way, one antenna device 49 can handle a plurality of frequency bands.
