ANTENNA FOR A PORTABLE DEVICE

摘要

A GPS antenna has two electrically connected L-sections disposed on opposite sides of a circuit board. The L-sections lie on two separate planes parallel to the circuit board surface. One L-section is connected to a feeding point located at one edge area of the circuit board and the other L-section is connected to a grounding point located at an opposite edge area of the circuit board. Optionally, a second grounding point is connected to the antenna element adjacent to the feeding point for impedance matching purposes. The antenna is configured for use in an electronic device such as a mobile phone.
