Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the field of watch technologies, and in particular, to a new type of antenna watch.

BACKGROUND

With the development and progress of mobile communication systems, the functions of watches are becoming more and more diversified, the watches provide a user with a lot of convenience. Many existing watches use GPS antennas to receive satellite signals and amplify them to process chips. Therefore, those with this function do not lack a part, as the receiving demand requires conductor materials to extend the wavelength and frequency amplification of this part.

At present, there are generally the following types of receiving antennas.

LDS antenna: a conductor developed from plastic after laser engraving is used as the antenna, and the rest of the part remains non-conductive and does not interfere with its signal. The disadvantage is that the process is complex, and the cost is high; this product has a strong plastic feel and no texture; due to the plastic material, the overall strength of the watch body is insufficient.

FPC and external antenna: adding conductors suitable for the corresponding wavelength inside the plastic shell as antennas has the disadvantage of large volume and require specific external dimensions, otherwise it is difficult to process. This product has a strong plastic feel and no texture. Due to the plastic material, the overall strength of the watch body is insufficient. And because the frequency band required for GPS reception is mostly ultra-low frequency, which requires ultra long bandwidth, and the small size of wearable devices, it is difficult to meet practical requirements by using externally attached conductors.

Ceramic antenna: it has advantages of achievable performance but dual frequency requirements. The disadvantage thereof is that the case cannot be made of metal, otherwise it will shield the reception of the ceramic antenna, and it is high cost.

SUMMARY

In order to meet the demand for reducing the cost of receiving antennas and improving the strength of a watch body, the present application provides a new type of antenna watch.

By adopting the above technical solution, when the ground feeding point is disconnected from the metal case in an appropriate manner, it will change an original continuous flow path of current on the annular conductor. The originally uniformly distributed current state inside the metal case is broken, thereby forming specific current boundary conditions at a disconnection point, which causes the current to form different distribution situations on two sides of the disconnection, guiding the current to be distributed in a way that is conducive to resonance at the wavelength frequency points corresponding to L1 and L5 frequency bands.

Due to the understanding of the size of the metal case, combined with the adjustment of the current distribution and equivalent inductance and capacitance after the ground feeding point is disconnected, the antenna can meet the resonance condition in this frequency band, that is, the input impedance is close to pure resistance, thereby achieving good matching with the feeding network, and effectively radiating and receiving electromagnetic waves corresponding to the L1 and L5 frequency bands, achieving the goal of covering the wavelength frequency points of this frequency band.

In summary, this application includes at least one beneficial technical effect as follows.

When the ground feeding point is disconnected from the metal case in an appropriate manner, it will change an original continuous flow path of current on the annular conductor. The originally uniformly distributed current state inside the metal case is broken, thereby forming specific current boundary conditions at a disconnection point, which causes the current to form different distribution situations on two sides of the disconnection, guiding the current to be distributed in a way that is conducive to resonance at the wavelength frequency points corresponding to L1 and L5 frequency bands.

The implementation principle of the antenna watch in the present application is that when the ground feeding point 222 is disconnected from the metal casing in an appropriate manner, it will change an original continuous flow path of current on the annular conductor. The originally uniformly distributed current state inside the metal case is broken, thereby forming specific current boundary conditions at a disconnection point, which causes the current to form different distribution situations on two sides of the disconnection, guiding the current to be distributed in a way that is conducive to resonance at the wavelength frequency points corresponding to L1 and L5 frequency bands.

Due to the understanding of the size of the metal case, combined with the adjustment of the current distribution and equivalent inductance and capacitance after the ground feeding point 222 is disconnected, the antenna can meet the resonance condition in this frequency band, that is, the input impedance is close to pure resistance, thereby achieving good matching with the feeding network, and effectively radiating and receiving electromagnetic waves corresponding to the L1 and L5 frequency bands, achieving the goal of covering the wavelength frequency points of this frequency band.
