Abstract

Es werden Mikrowellenantennen mit einem dielektrischen Substrat (1) mit mindestens einer resonanten Leiterbahnstruktur (31 bis 39) beschrieben, die insbesondere für mobile Dual- und Multiband-Telekommunikationsgeräte wie Mobil- und Schnurlostelefone, sowie für Geräte, die nach dem Bluetooth-Standard kommunizieren, geeignet ist. Durch verschiedene Leitungssegmente (34, 35) und Abstimm-Stichleitungen (41, 42) ist darüber hinaus eine Abstimmung der Resonanzfrequenzen verschiedener Betriebsmoden auf eine konkrete Einbausituation möglich, ohne das prinzipielle Antennendesign ändern zu müssen. Schließlich können die Antennen zusammen mit anderen Bauelementen durch übliche Oberflächenmontage auf eine gedruckte Schaltungsplatine aufgelötet werden.
