DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS
(12) The following describes technical solutions in embodiments of the present invention with reference to accompanying drawings.
(13) Referring to both FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, in an embodiment of the present invention, a communications terminal 100 is provided, including an antenna 10. The antenna 10 includes a circuit board 11, a radiator 15, a first feed 17, a first coupling structure 171, a second feed 19, and a second coupling structure 191. The radiator 15 is disposed around an outer edge of the circuit board 11, and a ring-shape slot S is formed between the radiator 15 and the outer edge of the circuit board 11. Both the first feed 17 and the second feed 19 are disposed on the circuit board 11. The first feed 17 is electrically connected to the first coupling structure 171, and the first coupling structure 171 is coupled to the radiator 15 along a first direction. The first feed 17 is configured to provide a first excitation current, and a current in a first polarization direction is formed on the circuit board 11 by using the radiator 15 and the ring-shape slot S. The second feed 19 is electrically connected to the second coupling structure 191, and the second coupling structure 191 is coupled to the radiator 15 along a second direction. The second feed 19 is configured to provide a second excitation current, and a current in a second polarization direction is formed on the circuit board 11 by using the radiator 15 and the ring-shape slot S. A specific included angle is formed between the first direction and the second direction. In this embodiment, the circuit board 11 is in a round pie shape, and the radiator 15 is in a ring shape. Current feed-in directions of the first feed 17 and the second feed 19 are orthogonal to each other. That is, an included angle of 90 degrees is formed between the first direction and the second direction. It may be understood that orthogonal in the embodiments of the present invention may be non-strict orthogonal, for example, quasi-orthogonal (quasi-orthogonal). It may be understood that an electrical connection in the embodiments of the present invention may be a direct connection or a connection by way of another part or component.
(14) The communications terminal 100 may be a smartwatch, a smart band, or the like. The radiator 15 may be a metal frame of the communications terminal 100. A slot antenna is formed between the radiator 15 and the circuit board 11 by using the ring-shape slot S. In the communications terminal 100, the first feed 17 and the second feed 19 are disposed on the circuit board 11, and the two feeds excite, by means of separate feeding, the antenna 10 to work in a multi-input multi-output (Multi-input Multi-output, MIMO) antenna mode. It may be understood that the first excitation current and the second excitation current have a same frequency and phase. For example, in this embodiment, the first excitation current and the second excitation current may be currents with a frequency being 2.4 GHz to 2.484 GHz and a same phase, and are used to excite the antenna 10 to work in the MIMO antenna mode at a Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz band. Alternatively, the first excitation current and the second excitation current may be currents with a frequency being 2.5 GHz to 2.69 GHz and a same phase, and are used to excite the antenna 10 to work in the MIMO antenna mode at an LTE Band 7.
(15) The two feeds share the radiator 15, so that a volume of a MIMO antenna can be effectively reduced. That is, in limited antenna design space, a form of sharing a radiator can be used to implement the MIMO antenna, so as to mitigate an effect of design space on the MIMO antenna. In addition, the first feed 17 is coupled to the radiator 15 by using the first coupling structure 171, and a current in the first polarization direction is formed on the circuit board 11 by using the radiator 15 and the ring-shape slot S. The second feed 19 is coupled to the radiator 15 by using the second coupling structure 191, and a current in the second polarization direction is formed on the circuit board 11 by using the radiator 15 and the ring-shape slot S. Moreover, the first polarization direction and the second polarization direction are quasi-orthogonal. Therefore, an isolation of the antenna 10 in the MIMO antenna mode can be effectively improved. It may be understood that by means of adjusting feed-in positions of the first feed 17 and the second feed 19 on the radiator 15, a relationship between the current in the first polarization direction and the current in the second polarization direction can be adjusted, and then the isolation of the antenna 10 in the MIMO antenna mode is adjusted.
(16) Referring to FIG. 3, FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of current distribution in the antenna 10. FIG. 3(a) is a schematic diagram illustrating distribution of a current formed by coupling the first excitation current to the radiator 15 and the current in the first polarization direction formed on the circuit board 11. FIG. 3(b) is a schematic diagram illustrating distribution of a current formed by coupling the second excitation current to the radiator 15 and the current in the second polarization direction formed on the circuit board 11. It can be learnt from a comparison of FIG. 3(a) and FIG. 3(b), the first excitation current is coupled to the radiator 15 through the first coupling structure 171 and flows in clockwise and counter-clockwise directions on the radiator 15, so that the radiator 15 resonates with the circuit board 11 by using the ring-shape slot S, and a current in the first polarization direction is formed on the circuit board 11. The first coupling structure 171 is coupled to the radiator 15 along the first direction. The first direction is a direction from the first feed 17, the first coupling structure 171, to the radiator 15. The first polarization direction formed on the circuit board 11 is the same as or close to the first direction. The second excitation current is coupled to the radiator 15 through the second coupling structure 191 and flows in clockwise and counter-clockwise directions on the radiator 15, so that the radiator 15 resonates with the circuit board 11 by using the ring-shape slot S, and a current in the second polarization direction is formed on the circuit board 11. The second coupling structure 191 is coupled to the radiator 15 along the second direction. The second direction is a direction from the second feed 19, the second coupling structure 191, to the radiator 15. The second polarization direction formed on the circuit board 11 is the same as or close to the second direction. In this embodiment, the current in the first polarization direction and the current in the second polarization direction on the circuit board 11 are quasi-orthogonal and complementary to each other, so that a good isolation is achieved for the antenna 10 in the MIMO antenna mode.
(17) That the current in the first polarization direction and the current in the second polarization direction are quasi-orthogonal to each other means: a flow direction of the current in the first polarization direction on the circuit board 11 is approximately perpendicular to a flow direction of the current in the second polarization direction on the circuit board 11. That the current in the first polarization direction and the current in the second polarization direction are complementary to each other means: a position in which the current in the first polarization direction on the circuit board 11 reaches its greatest magnitude is exactly a position in which the current in the second polarization direction on the circuit board drops to its least magnitude, and therefore the currents are mutually complementary. For example, a magnitude of the current in the first polarization direction is the least in a position A shown in FIG. 3(a), a magnitude of the current in the second polarization direction is the greatest in the same position A shown in FIG. 3(b), and therefore, the currents are complementary. Likewise, the magnitude of the current in the first polarization direction is the greatest in a position B shown in FIG. 3(a), the magnitude of the current in the second polarization direction is the least in the same position B shown in FIG. 3(b), and therefore, the currents are complementary. In this embodiment, the first polarization direction is a vertical direction, and the second polarization direction is a horizontal direction.
(18) Still referring to FIG. 1, the radiator 15 may have a specific height in a direction vertical to the circuit board 11. For example, the radiator 15 may extend towards the circuit board 11 side along the direction vertical to the circuit board 11, so that a specific height is formed in the direction vertical to the circuit board 11. It may be understood that a radiation property of the antenna 10, such as a resonance frequency and a bandwidth, may be adjusted by adjusting parameters such as a radius, a height, and a thickness of the radiator 15, a width of the ring-shape slot S, and a radius and a thickness of the circuit board 11. In addition, in an optional implementation, the antenna 10 may further include a dielectric layer 13. The dielectric layer 13 is disposed at a bottom of the circuit board 11, and an outer edge of the dielectric layer 13 is connected to the radiator 15. In this embodiment, the dielectric layer 13 is also in a round pie shape, and a radius of the dielectric layer 13 is the same as an outer diameter of the radiator 15. It may be understood that the radiation property of the antenna 10, such as a resonance frequency and a bandwidth, may be adjusted by adjusting a dielectric parameter of the dielectric layer 13.
(19) Referring to FIG. 4, FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of S parameter curves of the antenna 10 when different dielectric parameters are used. FIG. 4(a) shows S parameter curves S11, S12, S21, and S22 of the antenna 10 when a value of a dielectric constant εr of the dielectric layer (Dielectric Layer) 13 is 4.7 and a value of a dielectric loss tangent Tan δ is 0.02, where S12 and S21 coincide. FIG. 4(b) shows S parameter curves S11, S12, S21, and S22 of the antenna 10 when a value of the dielectric constant εr of the dielectric layer 13 is 3.0 and a value of the dielectric loss tangent Tan δ is 0.02, where S12 and S21 coincide. It can be learnt from FIG. 4 that when two different dielectric parameters are used and the antenna 10 operates at an operating bandwidth in case that values of the S parameter S11 and the S parameter S22 are smaller than −6 dB, an antenna isolation (the S parameter S12 and the S parameter S21) can be below −20 dB, that is, the antenna 10 has a high isolation in the MIMO antenna mode. It may be understood that in an optional case, the value of the dielectric constant εr of the dielectric layer 13 may be set to 1.0 and the value of the dielectric loss tangent Tan δ may be set to 0, so that the dielectric layer 13 does not affect the radiation property of the antenna 10. Still referring to FIG. 2, in an optional implementation, the first coupling structure 171 includes a first feed-in end 1711 and a first radiation arm 1713, the first feed 17 is electrically connected to the first radiation arm 1713 by using the first feed-in end 1711, and a first coupling capacitor C1 is formed between the first radiation arm 1713 and the radiator 15; and the second coupling structure 191 includes a second feed-in end 1911 and a second radiation arm 1913, the second feed 19 is electrically connected to the second radiation arm 1913 by using the second feed-in end 1911, and a second coupling capacitor C2 is formed between the second radiation arm 1913 and the radiator 15. It may be understood that the first coupling capacitor C1 and the second coupling capacitor C2 are distributed capacitors. A resonance frequency of the antenna 10 may be adjusted by adjusting a length of the first radiation arm 1713 and/or the second radiation arm 1913, a distance between the first radiation arm 1713 and the radiator 15, and/or a distance between the second radiation arm 1913 and the radiator 15. In this embodiment, a T-shape connection is established between the first feed-in end 1711 and the first radiation arm 1713, a T-shape connection is established between the second feed-in end 1911 and the second radiation arm 1913, and the first feed-in end 1711 is perpendicular to the second feed-in end 1911.
(20) Referring to FIG. 5, in an optional implementation, the first feed 17 is coupled to the radiator 15 by using a first coupling structure 173, and the second feed 19 is coupled to the radiator 15 by using a second coupling structure 193. The first coupling structure 173 includes a first coupling circuit 1731. One end of the first coupling circuit 1731 is electrically connected to the first feed 17, and the other end of the first coupling circuit 1731 is electrically connected to the radiator 15, to feed a current of the first feed 17 into the radiator 15 by means of coupling. The second coupling structure 193 includes a second coupling circuit 1931. One end of the second coupling circuit 193 is electrically connected to the second feed 19, and the other end of the second coupling circuit 193 is electrically connected to the radiator 15, to feed a current of the second feed 19 into the radiator 15 by means of coupling. In this embodiment, both the first coupling circuit 1731 and the second coupling circuit 1931 may be fixed capacitors or variable capacitors. It may be understood that a resonance frequency of the antenna 10 can be adjusted by adjusting capacitance values of the fixed capacitors or the variable capacitors. In this optional implementation, the first coupling structure 171 used in the implementation illustrated in FIG. 2 is replaced with the first coupling circuit 1731, and the second coupling structure 191 used in the implementation illustrated in FIG. 2 is replaced with the second coupling circuit 1931. That is, the distributed capacitors used in the implementation illustrated in FIG. 2 are replaced with the fixed capacitors or the variable capacitors. Therefore, the resonance frequency and bandwidth of the antenna 10 can be adjusted flexibly and production costs of the antenna 10 can be reduced.
(21) Still referring to FIG. 2, in an optional implementation, a side of the circuit board 11 opposite to the first coupling structure 171 includes a first protrusion part 111. A first capacitive load groove S1 is formed between the first protrusion part 111 and the radiator 15, and a first capacitive loading structure is formed between the first protrusion part 111 and the first capacitive load groove S1. A side of the circuit board 11 opposite to the second coupling structure 191 includes a second protrusion part 113. A second capacitive load groove S3 is formed between the second protrusion part 113 and the radiator 15, and a second capacitive loading structure is formed between the second protrusion part 113 and the second capacitive load groove S3. The first capacitive load groove S1 and the second capacitive load groove S3 are configured to implement capacitive loading between the radiator 15 and the circuit board 11. In this optional implementation, the first protrusion part 111 is disposed on the side of the circuit board 11 opposite to the first coupling structure 171, so that a distance between the circuit board 11 and the radiator 15 is reduced, the first capacitive load groove S1 is formed between the circuit board 11 and the radiator 15, and a current of the radiator 15 can be coupled to the circuit board 11 in a position of the first capacitive load groove S1, so as to form a first current loop. In addition, the second protrusion part 113 is disposed on the side of the circuit board 11 opposite to the second coupling structure 191, so that the distance between the circuit board 11 and the radiator 15 is reduced, the second capacitive load groove S2 is formed between the circuit board 11 and the radiator 15, and the current of the radiator 15 can be coupled to the circuit board 11 in a position of the second capacitive load groove S2, so as to form a second current loop. Because a position of the first protrusion part 111 is opposite to the first coupling structure 171 and a position of the second protrusion part 113 is opposite to the second coupling structure 191, a current on the first current loop is orthogonal to a current on the second current loop. Therefore, the isolation of the antenna 10 in the MIMO antenna mode can be effectively improved.
(22) Referring to FIG. 6, in an optional implementation, the first protrusion part 111 is electrically connected to the radiator 15 by using a first tuned circuit 1111, and/or the second protrusion part 113 is electrically connected to the radiator 15 by using a second tuned circuit 1131. The first tuned circuit 1111 and/or the second tuned circuit 1131 are/is configured to adjust the resonance frequency and the bandwidth of the antenna 10. It may be understood that the first tuned circuit 1111 and the second tuned circuit 1131 may include components such as a capacitor and an inductor. For example, the tuned circuit may include a switch and a fixed capacitor or an inductor, and a value of load capacitance or a value of inductance between the protrusion part and the radiation 15 can be adjusted by turning on or off the switch. Alternatively, the tuned circuit also includes a variable capacitor, and the value of load capacitance between the protrusion part and the radiator 15 can be adjusted by adjusting a capacitance value of the variable capacitor. Therefore, the resonance frequency and the bandwidth of the antenna 10 can be further adjusted. Referring to FIG. 7, FIG. 7 shows an S parameter curve of the antenna 10 when the first tuned circuit 1111 and the second tuned circuit 1131 use different compositions and parameters, and an S parameter curve of the antenna 10 when the first tuned circuit 1111 and the second tuned circuit 1131 are not included. A curve S111 is an S parameter curve of the antenna 10 when a capacitance C of the first tuned circuit 1111 and the second tuned circuit 1131 is 0.2 pF. A curve S211 is an S parameter curve of the antenna 10 when the first tuned circuit 1111 and the second tuned circuit 1131 are not included. A curve S311 is an S parameter curve of the antenna 10 when an inductance L of the first tuned circuit 1111 and the second tuned circuit 1131 is 20 nH. In this implementation, the S parameter curve is a return loss curve. It can be learnt from FIG. 7 that the resonance frequency and the bandwidth of the antenna 10 can be flexibly adjusted by disposing the first tuned circuit 1111 and the second tuned circuit 1131 and changing compositions and parameters of the first tuned circuit 1111 and the second tuned circuit 1131. Referring to FIG. 8, in an optional implementation, the circuit board 11 further includes at least one opening 115 and/or at least one stub 117. The opening 115 and/or the stub 117 are/is disposed on an edge of the circuit board 11 and are/is configured to adjust the isolation of the antenna 10 in the MIMO antenna mode. In this implementation, the circuit board 11 includes two openings 115 and two stubs 117. The two openings 115 are disposed on opposite edges of the circuit board 11, and one of the openings 115 is located between the first coupling structure 171 and the second coupling structure 191. The two stubs are disposed on opposite edges of the circuit board 11. A line connecting the two stubs 117 is orthogonal to a line connecting the two openings 115. It may be understood that quantities and locations of the openings 115 and the stubs 117 may be adjusted according to a requirement for the antenna isolation. In addition, the opening 115 and the stub 117 may coexist with the first protrusion part 111 and the second protrusion part 113 used in the implementation in FIG. 2.
(23) Referring to FIG. 9, in an embodiment of the present invention, an antenna 10 may be used to transmit and receive a circular polarization wave. Specifically, an only difference between the antenna 10 in this embodiment and the antenna 10 shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 5, FIG. 6, or FIG. 8 lies in that: the antenna 10 in this embodiment may include only a first feed 17, or further includes a phase shifter 18. The first feed 17 is coupled to a radiator 15 along a first direction by using a first coupling structure 171 (173), and coupled to the radiator 15 along a second direction by using a second coupling structure 191 (193). A specific included angle is formed between the first direction and the second direction.

In this embodiment, an included angle of 90 degrees is formed between the first direction and the second direction. The phase shifter 18 is a 90-degree phase shifter and the preset angle is 90 degrees; or the phase shifter 18 is a 270-degree phase shifter and the preset angle is 270 degrees.
(24) Referring to FIG. 10, in an optional implementation, the antenna is not limited to the circular structure shown in FIG. 1 and may be of a structure such as an oval, a square, or a rectangle.
