    摘要: The present disclosure provides an antenna, an array antenna, a radio communication module, and a radio communication device of a new type. An antenna according to one example of embodiments of the present disclosure includes a radiation conductor, a ground conductor, a first feeding line, a second feeding line, a third feeding line, a fourth feeding line, a first feeding circuit, and a second feeding circuit. The first feeding line to the fourth feeding line are configured to be electromagnetically connected to the radiation conductor. The first feeding circuit is configured to feed reversed-phased signals, which have mutually opposite phases, to the first feeding line and the third feeding line. The second feeding circuit is configured to feed reversed-phased signals, which have mutually opposite phases, to the second feeding line and the fourth feeding line. The radiation conductor is configured to be excited in a first direction due to the feed from the first feeding line and the third feeding line. The radiation conductor is configured to be excited in a second direction due to the feed from the second feeding line and the fourth feeding line.

    摘要: A radar device for automotive applications comprises a radar circuit configured to process a radar signal that has a first signal portion and a second signal portion, wherein the first signal portion occupies a first frequency band and the second signal portion occupies a second frequency band that is separate from the first frequency band. An antenna device of the radar device comprises a first and second antenna element that are both coupled to a common signal port of the radar circuit and the radar device is configured to route both the first signal portion and the second signal portion via the common signal port between the radar circuit and the antenna device. The antenna device is a frequency selective antenna device that transduces the first signal portion via the first antenna element and not via the second antenna element and that transduces the second signal portion at least via the second antenna element.

    摘要: An example of embodiments according to the present disclosure includes a resonance structure. The resonance structure includes a conductor part, a ground conductor, first pair conductors, and second pair conductors. The conductor part expands along a first plane including a first direction and a third direction. The ground conductor expands along the first plane. The first pair conductors electrically connect the conductor part and the ground conductor along a second direction intersecting the first plane and face each other in the first direction. The second pair conductors electrically connect the conductor part and the ground conductor along the second direction and face each other in the third direction. The conductor part capacitively connects the first pair conductors and capacitively connects the second pair conductors. A first edge and a second edge of the conductor part intersect with each other. The first edge extends in the first direction from one conductor of the first pair conductor. The second edge extends in the third direction from one conductor of the second pair conductors.

    摘要: An apparatus and method for determining location information using a multi-polarized antenna array is disclosed. The multi-polarized antenna array includes a plurality of metal patches and a multiplexer. Each metal patch has at least two feed-points. The multiplexer is coupled to an RF terminal and to each of the at least two feed-points of each of the plurality of metal patches. The antenna array is configurable to couple each feed-point one at a time to the RF terminal. Location information may be determined by a controller coupled to the RF terminal from RF signals received via each feed-point.
