An array antenna is proved. The array antenna provides multi-polarization by arranging multiple ports at adjacent positions. Specifically, the array antenna includes a first substrate having a first thickness and a rectangular shape, a second substrate disposed to be in contact with the bottom surface of the first substrate and having a second thickness and a rectangular shape, a ground surface shared by the first substrate and the second substrate, and first ports and second ports disposed to penetrate the ground surface.

Array antenna including multiple polarization ports and electronic device including same

The disclosure relates to an array antenna, and specifically, relates to an array antenna which improves performance by using a shorting pin. The array antenna includes a first antenna, a second antenna, the first antenna and the second antenna sharing a ground, and a substrate disposed on an upper portion of the ground, and the second antenna is disposed in contact with an upper portion of the substrate, the first antenna is disposed by penetrating through centers of the substrate and the second antenna, the array antenna includes a plurality of feeding pins disposed by penetrating through the second antenna, the substrate, and the ground, and the array antenna includes a plurality of shorting pins penetrating through the second antenna, the substrate, and the ground to be symmetric with the plurality of feeding pins.

Array antenna with shorting pin

The disclosure relates to an array antenna, and more specifically, the array antenna configured by arranging a plurality of antenna elements at close positions. An array antenna is provided. The array antenna includes a first antenna operating in a first mode, and a second antenna operating in a second mode, wherein a correlation between an electric field of the first mode and an electric field of the second mode falls below a first threshold which is predetermined, or a correlation between a magnetic field of the first mode and a magnetic field of the second mode falls below a second threshold which is predetermined.

Multi mode array antenna

There is disclosed a method which is capable of calibrating or tuning the characteristics of individual antenna elements constituting an array antenna. The performance of the individual antenna elements can be improved by calibrating or tuning the characteristics of the individual antenna elements, and thus an array antenna can be installed even in a narrow space and can receive GPS signals.
