Abstract

A multi-frequency antenna with a single layer and a single feeding point, and especially an improved microstrip antenna with its bandwidths simplified and enlarged, it has a central microstrip with a set length and a set width; the bottom end of the central microstrip is used as a feeding point, the top end thereof is extended bilaterally to form respectively a first band section and a second ban section. The first band section is provided on the end thereof with a first open circuit point, and the second ban section is provided on the end thereof with a second open circuit point. A grounding line of a set length and a set width is located at a position a distance below the feeding point on the bottom end of the central microstrip. The lengths from the feeding point to an open circuit point on the end of the first band section and to an open circuit point on the end of the second ban section are both ¼ λ of the ban section to be used.

Claims

1. A multi-frequency antenna with a single layer and a single feeding point, said antenna comprises a central microstrip with a set length and a set width, a bottom end of said central microstrip is used as the feeding point, a top end thereof is extended bilaterally to form respectively a first band section and a second band section, said first band section is provided on an end thereof with a first open circuit point, and said second band section is provided on an end thereof with a second open circuit point, a grounding line of a set length and a set width is provided at a position a distance below said feeding point on said bottom end of said central microstrip;

the lengths from said feeding point to the first open circuit point on said end of said first band section and to the second open circuit point on said end of said second band section are both ¼

λ

of one of said band sections to be used, wherein said feeding point and said grounding line are spaced apart a predetermined distance to form an edge perturbation effect for adjusting impedance matching and increasing a bandwidth.

2. The multi-frequency antenna with a single layer and a single feeding point as defined in claim 1, wherein said first band section and said second band section are both bent and wound at positions with set widths of them on said antenna.

3. The multi-frequency antenna with a single layer and a single feeding point as defined in claim 2, wherein said central microstrip is provided at a joint of said first band section with said second band section and at turnings of said first band section and said second band section with cut angles to complement bandwidths.

4. The multi-frequency antenna with a single layer and a single feeding point as defined in claim 1, wherein the widths of said first band section and said second band section are set to be unequal.

5. The multi-frequency antenna with a single layer and a single feeding point as defined in claim 1, wherein said first band section and said second band section are provided at different vertical levels deviating from each other.
