Antenna module and electronic apparatus having the same
First Claim
1. An antenna module comprising:
- a PCB (printed circuit board) made of a flexible, nonconductive material;
an antenna element mounted on an upper surface of the PCB;
a ground line formed on the PCB so that the ground line is connected to a ground terminal of the antenna element, and provided with a first joint portion at one end thereof;
a feeder line formed on the PCB so that the feeder line is connected to a signal terminal of the antenna element, and provided with a second joint portion at one end thereof, anda non-grounded impedance adjusting passive line, formed on the PCB in parallel with the feeder line, the impedance adjusting passive line being configured to adjust impedance by electric coupling with the feeder line.

Abstract
An antenna module, which minimizes a space, in an electronic apparatus set, occupied thereby without changing characteristics thereof, improves a degree of freedom of the installation structure thereof to increase the space utilization of the set, and achieves miniaturization and multi-functionality of electronic apparatuses, and an electronic apparatus having the antenna module. The antenna module includes a PCB (printed circuit board) made of nonconductive material having flexibility; an antenna element mounted at a designated position of the upper surface of the PCB; a ground line formed on the PCB so that the ground line is connected to a ground terminal of the antenna element, and provided with a joint portion formed at one end thereof; a feeder line formed on the PCB so that the feeder line is connected to a signal terminal of the antenna element, and provided with a joint portion formed at one end thereof; and a passive line, having a designated length, formed on the PCB in parallel with the feeder line. The joint portions of the ground line and the feeder line are bonded to designated positions of a set of the wireless electronic apparatus, and a portion of the antenna module having the antenna element mounted on the PCB is located outside the set.
