Capacitive Recognition of the User’s Hand Grip Position in Mobile Handsets

چکیده
A capacitive method for measuring hand grip position on a mobile phone equipped with a dual-band planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA) and a monopole antenna was studied using different electrode arrangements. A capacitive sensor with a dual-electrode configuration and an antenna-integrated capacitive sensor for hand grip recognition were developed. The sensitivities of the sensors were measured along the front, side and back of the phone. The dual-electrode sensor configuration exhibited its best sensitivity of 29 fF at the bottom end of the phone. The PIFA antenna-integrated sensor proved to have sensitivity of 420 fF and the monopole antenna-integrated sensor had sensitivity of 115 fF, making them both reasonable solutions for hand grip sensors in mobile applications.

A capacitively loaded planar inverted{F antenna (PIFA) is proposed and studied. It is found that the capacitive load reduces the resonance length of the PIFA from =4 to less than =8. A design with a bandwidth of 178MHz centered at 1.8GHz is provided to demonstrate that compact antennas for mobile telephone handsets can be constructed using this approach. The nite diierence time domain method is...
