- the frequency characteristics (return loss characteristics) of radio waves from a radio communication device with a surface-mounted antenna mounted on a circuit board are not determined only by the radiation electrode of the surface-mounted antenna. This is determined by the involvement of various elements such as the ground electrode and parts of the circuit board on which the is mounted. For this reason, the resonance frequency of the radio communication radio wave of the radio communication device is shifted from the resonance frequency of the radiation electrode of the surface mount antenna. As a result, even if the same surface mount antenna is mounted, for example, if the wireless communication device model is different, the resonance frequency of the radio communication radio wave of the wireless communication device (hereinafter referred to as the antenna resonance frequency) is different. A problem occurs.
- the size and shape of the ground electrode (Dalland) formed on the circuit board is different, or the components disposed around the surface mount antenna are different.
- the state of the surface mount antenna is different, such as the type and the distance between the surface mount antenna and the surrounding parts, and the housing material of the radio communication device is different. Different. Since the ambient frequency of such a surface mount antenna is involved in a complicated manner and the resonance frequency of the antenna is determined, the type of radio communication device on which the surface mount antenna is mounted differs. If the ambient conditions are different, the same surface-mount antenna is provided, and the resonance frequency of the antenna is different.
- the circuit board circuit electrically connected to the surface-mounted antenna is changed for each wireless communication device model.
- a method has been proposed in which the part is custom-designed and the resonance frequency of the antenna is adjusted to the set resonance frequency (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 to 3).
- the conventional methods for adjusting the resonance frequency of the antenna with the circuit on the circuit board have a problem in that the current loss increases and the antenna gain decreases.
- a component with capacitance or inductance to adjust the resonance frequency of the antenna, for example, if a general-purpose component is also used for cost, the value of V or some numerical value of capacitance or inductance Only parts with values (capacitor parts or inductor parts) can be prepared. For this reason, since it is often impossible to obtain capacitor components and inductor components having optimum values, it is difficult to accurately adjust the resonance frequency of the antenna to the set resonance frequency.
- the present invention has the following configuration as means for solving the above problems. That is, one of the configurations of the antenna structure of the present invention is that a radiation electrode that performs antenna operation is provided on a base, and the base is mounted on a circuit board, and the radiation electrode is a substrate surface of the circuit board. In the antenna structure having a configuration provided on the base so as to face each other with a gap therebetween,
- the circuit board is placed facing the radiation electrode of the base and has a capacitance between it and the radiation electrode.
- a grounding electrode is formed on the circuit board, and a grounding electrode is formed on the circuit board via a space between the grounding capacitor loading electrode and the grounding electrode, avoiding the formation region of the grounding capacity loading electrode.
- a resonance frequency adjusting element is provided to connect between the capacitance loading electrode and the ground electrode, and the resonance frequency adjusting element adjusts the resonance frequency of the antenna structure to a resonance frequency set in advance. It is characterized by having a capacitance or inductance to achieve this.
- the wireless communication device of the present invention is characterized in that an antenna structure having a configuration specific to the present invention is provided.
- the base body provided with the radiation electrode is mounted on the circuit board, and the circuit board is disposed opposite to the radiation electrode of the base body and has a capacitance between the ground electrode and the ground electrode.
- a mass loading electrode is formed.

- the resonance frequency adjusting element has a capacity or inductance.
- the radiation electrode is connected to the ground electrode via the capacitance between the capacitance loading electrode and the capacitance or inductance of the resonance frequency adjusting element.
- the impedance of the circuit (hereinafter referred to as the resonance frequency adjusting circuit) in which the capacitance between the radiation electrode and the electrode for capacitive loading between the ground and the capacitance or inductance of the resonance frequency adjusting element is connected in series is It is concerned with the electrical length of the radiation electrode which determines the resonance frequency of the radiation electrode. For this reason, by variably adjusting the capacitance or inductance value of the resonant frequency adjusting element, the impedance of the resonant frequency adjusting circuit is varied and the electrical length of the radiation electrode is varied.
- the resonance frequency of the radiation electrode (that is, the resonance frequency of the antenna structure) can be variably adjusted.
- the resonant frequency of the antenna structure can be variably adjusted without changing the design of the shape of the radiation electrode of the base body, etc., simply by changing the capacitance or inductance value of the resonant frequency adjusting element. Can do.
- a component (antenna component) in which the radiation electrode is formed on the base can be used in common for a plurality of types of wireless communication devices, and the component can be shared. This makes it possible to reduce the cost of antenna parts and wireless communication devices. It becomes easy to plan.
- the capacitance of the element for adjusting the resonant frequency or The amount of change in the resonance frequency of the antenna structure with respect to the amount of change in inductance value can be increased.

- the amount of change in the resonant frequency of the antenna structure with respect to the amount of change in value can be reduced.
- a general-purpose capacitor component or inductor component is used as the resonance frequency adjustment element, and the capacitance size or inductance value of the resonance frequency adjustment element is discontinuous. Even if it can only be variably adjusted, it is possible to change the capacitance between the radiation electrode and the electrode for capacitive loading by changing the electrode area of the electrode for loading the capacitance between grounds, thereby resonating the antenna structure. The frequency change width can be reduced, and the resonance frequency of the antenna structure can be finely adjusted. This makes it easy to obtain the required resonance frequency of the radiation electrode and improve the reliability of the wireless communication device having the antenna structure of the present invention for wireless communication.
- the electrode for loading capacitance between grounds is provided on the circuit board and is not provided on the base on which the radiation electrode is formed. For this reason, when it is desired to change the capacitance between the radiation electrode and the electrode for loading capacitance between grounds due to a design change, etc., it is only necessary to change the electrode area of the electrode for loading capacitance between the grounds formed on the circuit board. There is no need to change the design of the component (antenna component) formed by forming the radiation electrode on the base. In other words, it is possible to use the same antenna components after the design change as before the design change. As described above, the configuration in which the electrode for ground capacitance loading is provided on the circuit board is also an important element that can promote the common use of the antenna components.
- a ground-capacitance capacity loading electrode is temporarily provided on the side of the base.
- the virtual plane along the electrode surface of the radiation electrode and the electrode of the electrode for loading capacitance between grounds Since the virtual plane along the pole surface has, for example, an orthogonal relationship or a substantially orthogonal relationship, the capacitance between the radiation electrode and the electrode for loading capacitance between grounds is small.
- the electrode for loading the capacitance between the grounds must be enlarged, and the substrate (that is, the antenna component) is The problem of increasing the size occurs.
- the grounding capacity loading electrode is formed on the circuit board surface portion facing the radiation electrode, so that the facing area between the grounding capacity loading electrode and the radiation electrode is reduced. It becomes easy to form a large capacity between the electrode for loading capacitance between ground and the radiation electrode.
- the electrode for loading capacitance between grounds is not provided on the base, the size of the base (antenna component) can be reduced by not providing the electrodes for loading capacitance between grounds on the base.
- the capacitance loading electrode between the grounds is formed on the circuit board surface portion facing the radiation electrode, and a large capacitance can be formed between the capacitance loading electrode between the ground and the radiation electrode. Due to the configuration, it is possible to variably adjust the resonance frequency of the antenna structure while preventing the antenna gain from being deteriorated.
