Abstract From the Canadian patent

In a state that a whip antenna 101 is contained in a housing 110 of a cellular phone, a minute space dl is formed between a feeding spring 117 and an attaching member 112 conductive to a screw antenna base portion 120 so as to generate electrostatic capacitance which is, equivalent to the impedance characteristic of mono-pole antenna 114. Then, electrostatic capacitance and a coil portion of a screw antenna 113 constitute an LC series resonance circuit so as to improve the wide band of screw antenna 113.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed April 26, 1999 and granted November 26, 2002. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended April 26, 2019.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by April 26, 2021.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
