FIELD
The present disclosure relates to a technical field of wireless communication technology, in particular to an antenna system and electronic device.
BACKGROUND
The development of Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN) is most widespread with the Wi-Fi protocol developed by the Wi Fi Alliance. The development of the Wi-Fi protocol has evolved from IEEE 802.11 a, b, g, n, ax to the upcoming 802.11 be, also known as Wi Fi 7, which has made great progress in bandwidth and throughput usage. However, when using such electronic devices in application scenarios such as at airports or in commercial buildings, there are problems such as low isolation, high noise interference, uneven signal coverage, and blind spots in reception.
