The switched antenna 10 includes a radiating element 12, a switching device 14, and a compensating element 16. The radiating element 12 includes a feed terminal F, a first ground terminal G1, and a second ground terminal G2, and the main body (the structure from the feed terminal F to the first ground terminal G1) adopts a loop layout. The first ground terminal G1 is connected to the ground potential, and the second ground terminal G2 is connected to the ground potential or the high impedance (open circuit) through the switching device 14.

The switched antenna 10 is designed to resonate in a particular frequency band by the structural length of the radiating element 12, the center frequency of which is related to the length of the antenna resonant path (from the feed terminal F of the radiating element 12 to the ground potential). When the second ground terminal G2 is opened by the switching device 14, the input signal flows from the feeding terminal F of the radiating element 12 to the first ground terminal G1 (in this case, the antenna resonance path is represented by an arrow L1 in FIG. 1). Therefore, the radiating element 12 can generate a 201114107 electromagnetic wave resonance band B1 corresponding to the length of the L1, wherein the length of the antenna resonant path port is one-half or one-half the integer of the wavelength of the central resonant frequency of the first electromagnetic wave resonant band B1.

On the other hand, when the second ground terminal G2 is connected to the ground potential through the switching device 14, the input signal flows from the feeding terminal F of the radiating element 12 to the second ground terminal G2 (at this time, the antenna resonance path is from the i-th diagram) The arrow L2 is shown), so the radiating element 12 can generate a second electromagnetic wave resonance band B2 corresponding to the length of [2], and the electromagnetic wave resonance path [2 is the length of the second electromagnetic wave resonance band B2 whose center resonance frequency wavelength is again One-half or one-half of an integer multiple of two. As shown in Fig. 1, the length of the antenna resonance path L1 is larger than the length of the antenna resonance path L2, so that the center resonance frequency of the first electromagnetic wave resonance band B1 is lower than the center resonance frequency of the second electromagnetic wave resonance band B2. For example, the first embodiment of the present invention can determine the total length of the φ radiating element 12 (that is, the length of the antenna resonant path L1) according to the LTE frequency band of 698 to 787 MHz, and then determine the second according to the 3G frequency band of 824 to 960 MHz.

The compensating element 16 is an extension of the radiating element 12 and serves to provide impedance matching. The 201114107 switched antenna 10 is designed to generate a resonance in a particular frequency band by the length of the radiating element 12, which correlates the heart frequency to the length of the antenna resonant path (from the feed terminal F of the radiating element 12 to the ground potential). When the second ground terminal G2 and the third ground terminal G3 are opened by the switching devices 13 and 15, respectively, the input signal flows from the feeding terminal F of the radiating element 12 to the first ground terminal G1 (at this time, the antenna resonance path is 4th) The arrow L1 in the figure is shown), so that the radiating element 12 can generate a first electromagnetic wave resonance band B1 corresponding to the length of L1, wherein the length of the antenna resonance path L1 is the dichotomy of the center wavelength of the first electromagnetic wave resonance band B1. One or one-half of an integer multiple. When the second ground terminal G2 is connected to the ground potential through the switching device 13, and the third ground terminal G3 is opened by the switching device 15, the input signal flows from the feeding terminal F of the radiating element 12 to the second ground terminal G2 (the antenna at this time) The resonant path is represented by an arrow L2 in FIG. 4, so that the radiating element 12 can generate a second electromagnetic wave resonant band B2 corresponding to the length of L2, wherein the length of the antenna resonant path L2 is the second electromagnetic wave resonant band B2, its central resonant frequency One-half of the wavelength or an integer multiple of one-half.
