Method for manufacturing antenna structure

摘要

A method for manufacturing an antenna structure is disclosed. Employing steps of mixing with a catalyst and embedding a metal insert can simplify steps for manufacturing the antenna structure. Further, a non-conductive frame produced by the process disclosed herein can exhibit waterproof effect. The catalyst mentioned above is mixed with a plastic and then injected into a mold to form the non-conductive frame. The metal insert mentioned above is disposed in the mold before the step of injecting the plastic. Alternatively, the metal insert is embedded in the non-conductive frame after the step of injecting the plastic.

1. A method for manufacturing an antenna structure, the method comprising the steps of:
providing a non-conductive frame containing a catalyst; disposing a metal insert in an area of the non-conductive frame; forming an anti-plating resistance layer covering a surface of the non-conductive frame; removing the anti-plating resistance layer on the area of the non-conductive frame by a laser-direct-structuring (LDS) technique, and forming a coarsened surface in the area; removing the anti-plating resistance layer on the surface of the non-conductive frame; and forming a metal layer on the coarsened surface to obtain the antenna structure in contact with the metal insert.
