A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11923599B2) discloses an innovative antenna structure designed for wireless communication devices. The antenna structure includes a metal frame with multiple gaps, feed portions, a ground portion, and an adjusting portion. By supplying currents through different feed portions, the antenna can generate radiation signals in various frequency bands, including GPS mode, WIFI 2.4 GHz mode, WIFI 5 GHz mode, and LTE-A low, middle, high radiation frequency mode. The design allows for efficient adjustment of different modes by manipulating the position of the ground portion and includes a switch circuit for frequency adjustments. Additionally, an adjusting portion known as a middle/high band conditioner (WIC) is incorporated to fine-tune the frequency bands of the radiation signal.

Moreover, the patent extends to a wireless communication device incorporating the described antenna structure. The device features a full-screen display unit integrated into the metal frame and a backboard made of an integrated metal piece without any gaps or break lines. By utilizing the unique antenna structure, the wireless communication device can efficiently support various communication modes, including GPS, WIFI, and LTE-A, catering to the diverse needs of modern wireless communication technologies. The inclusion of the adjusting portion and switch circuit enhances the flexibility and adaptability of the device in adjusting radiation frequencies, ensuring optimal performance across different frequency bands.
