Abstract

An antenna includes a grounding element, a radiating element, an interconnecting element and a conductive element. The interconnecting element connects the radiating element and the grounding element. The conductive element is disposed between the grounding element and the radiating element and apart from the grounding element and the radiating element. Moreover, the conductive element has a feed positioned thereon.

Claims

1. An antenna comprising:

a grounding element;

a radiating element, wherein the radiating element has a bent part bent towards the grounding element;

an interconnecting element connecting the grounding element and the radiating element; and

a conductive element disposed between the grounding element and the radiating element and apart from the grounding element and the radiating element, wherein the conductive element has a feed positioned thereon.

2. An antenna comprising:

a grounding element;

a radiating element;

an interconnecting element connecting the grounding element and the radiating element; and

a conductive element disposed between the grounding element and the radiating element and apart from the grounding element and the radiating element, wherein the conductive element has a feed positioned thereon, wherein the width of the radiating element is about twice of the width of the conductive element.

3. The antenna of claim 2, wherein the radiating element has a bent part bent towards the grounding element.

4. The antenna of claim 2, wherein the conductive element has a bent part bent towards the grounding element, and the feed is positioned on the bent part.

5. An antenna comprising:

a grounding element;

a radiating element;

an interconnecting element connecting the grounding element and the radiating element; and

a conductive element disposed between the grounding element and the radiating element and apart from the grounding element and the radiating element, wherein the conductive element has a feed positioned thereon, wherein the conductive element is spaced from the radiating element at a distance, and the distance is substantially equal to the width of the conductive element.

6. The antenna of claim 5, wherein the radiating element has a bent part bent towards the grounding element.

7. The antenna of claim 5, wherein the conductive element has a bent part bent towards the grounding element, and the feed is positioned on the bent part.
