The slot antenna is disposed on the insulating layer.
Antenna assembly and electronic device
An antenna assembly and an electronic device are provided according to the present disclosure. The antenna assembly includes an antenna module and a bandwidth matching layer. The antenna module is configured to transmit and receive, within a preset direction range, a millimeter wave signal in a target frequency band. The bandwidth matching layer is spaced apart from the antenna module, and at least part of the bandwidth matching layer is disposed within the preset direction range. The bandwidth matching layer is configured to match an impedance of the antenna module to an impedance of free space to enable an impedance bandwidth of the antenna module in the target frequency band when the bandwidth matching layer is provided to be greater than an impedance bandwidth of the antenna module in the free space.

Array antenna
An array antenna includes an antenna substrate including a first ceramic member, an insertion member and a second ceramic member sequentially stacked, antenna pattern portions arranged on the antenna substrate in an array form, and shielding vias disposed inside the antenna substrate and extending in a thickness direction of the antenna substrate. The shielding vias are disposed in thickness areas of the antenna substrate corresponding to the antenna pattern portions.
Dual-band dual-polarized antenna for 5G applications
A dual-polarized antenna is presented for 5G mobile communications. The antenna includes two discrete elements—a folded dipole and a folded monopole, which generate two orthogonal polarizations. Parasitic elements are used to realize higher-band operation. In one example, the antenna covers both the 28 GHz band and the 39 GHz band. The entire structure is designed on an ultra-thin four-layer laminate and is intended to be incorporated along the edges of smartphones to enable 5G operation.
