    摘要: Disclosed is an electronic device. The electronic device includes: an antenna structure including at least one antenna and at least one processor operatively connected with the antenna structure. The antenna structure includes: a first conductive patch including a first edge and a second edge parallel to the first edge, a first transmission line electrically connected to a first point of the first conductive patch, a second conductive patch spaced apart from the first conductive patch by a specified distance and including a third edge at least partially facing the second edge of the first conductive patch and a fourth edge parallel to the third edge, and a second transmission line electrically connected to a second point of the second conductive patch. The first point of the first conductive patch and the second point of the second conductive patch are located on the second edge of the first conductive patch and the third edge of the second conductive patch or on the first edge of the first conductive patch and the fourth edge of the second conductive patch.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a reader, such as a reader for a physical access control system. The reader can include first and second antennas, each designed or configured for receiving ultra-wide band (UWB) signals. The reader can also include a mounting plane configured for mounting the reader to a surface. An axis aligning the first and second antennas can be arranged substantially perpendicular relative the mounting plane. A material can be provided between the first and second antennas. The material can have a thickness that defines a distance between the first and second antennas of less than a half wavelength of the UWB signal through air (λA/2), the material configured to slow down electromagnetic waves passing therethrough such that the thickness of the material provides an effective separation distance of the first and second antennas of at least a half wavelength of the UWB signal through air (λA/2).

    摘要: An ultra-wideband antenna device is disposed on a casing of an electronic device. The ultra-wideband antenna device includes radio frequency terminals, a first antenna module, a second antenna module, and a switch module. The radio frequency terminals, the first antenna module and the switch module are located in the casing. The first antenna module is located on a metal frame of the casing, and the first antenna module includes a first antenna. The second antenna module includes a second antenna, a third antenna, and a fourth antenna. The switch module is connected between the radio frequency terminals and the first antenna module. When the switch module turns on one of the radio frequency terminals and the first antenna for distance measurement, the switch module selectively turns on at least one of the second antenna, the third antenna, or the fourth antenna.
