Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to an antenna connectable to a mobile station, or other radio device, capable of transducing signal energy at multiple frequency bands. More particularly, the present invention relates to antenna apparatus, and an associated methodology, of compact dimensions, capable of transducing signal energy at the frequencies at which the radio device is operable, e.g., at the 800/900/1800/1900/2200 MHz frequency bands.
- a folded, conducting strip is disposed, or otherwise positioned, upon a three-dimensional substrate.
- the folded, conducting strip is positioned upon two or more surfaces of the three-dimensional substrate and is of a configuration to be resonant at two or more frequency bands. Formation of the conducting strip upon multiple substrate surfaces permits its length to be increased without requiring the amount of surface space that would otherwise be required to provide a conducting strip of corresponding length in a two-dimensional implementation.
- An antenna of compact dimension and good antenna characteristics is provided. The compact dimension further permits multiple antennas to be used at the mobile station in an antenna array configuration.
- Radio communication systems are exemplary radio communication systems.
- the infrastructures of cellular, and other, communication systems have been widely deployed and regularly used by many.
- Successive generations of various types of communication systems have been developed and their operating parameters and protocols are promulgated in operating standards, promulgated by standard-setting bodies.
- Mobile stations are typically utilized by users when communicating in a cellular, or other, mobile radio communication system.
- a mobile station is sometimes referred to as being a multi-mode mobile station when the mobile station is capable of operation by way of more than one type of mobile radio communication system.
- communications are carried out by way of a selected one of the communication systems. Selection is made, e.g., based upon a service subscription preference, user preference, or other criteria.
- the mobile station communicates by way of the available system.
- a multi-mode mobile station must include circuitry permitting its operation in each of the communication systems with which the mobile station is to communicate. Most simply, a mobile station is provided with multiple, independent circuitries of a number and type corresponding to the number and type of systems with which the mobile station is to operate. Sharing of common circuit portions is sometimes utilized to provide cost and size advantages.
- antenna transducer elements When the different systems with which the mobile station is to operate utilize different frequencies.
- the antenna transducer elements must be operable at the different frequencies of operation of the different communication systems.
- the size required of an antenna transducer element is typically related to the frequencies of the signal energy that is to be transduced by the transducer element. Different antenna sizes are therefore generally required for the different systems with which the mobile station is to operate.
- the challenges become yet greater as the mobile stations must increasingly be packaged in smaller housings.
- Significant attention has been directed towards the development of an antenna transducer, operable over multiple frequency bands that is also of small dimension to permit its positioning within the housing of a compact-sized mobile station.
