In particular, recent smartphones or tablet computers are designed to perform various functions such as Internet surfing, various functions using location information, or short range wireless communication as well as simple transmission and reception of calls and text messages.
Therefore, in recent portable electronic devices, two or more antenna devices are generally mounted so as to transmit and receive signals of various bands for various purposes. Among them, a so-called chip-type antenna in which a conductive pattern is formed in a dielectric block shape is widely used because it is relatively small and can be directly mounted on a substrate of an electronic device using an SMT process.
Referring to FIG. 1, the conventional chip-type antenna device is generally configured such that the
Generally, the RF characteristics of the antenna are improved as the distance between the antenna ground plane and the antenna line is larger. Also, the RF characteristics of the antenna may be degraded by other conductive elements in the vicinity.
