Abstract

A method for folding and extending an antenna structure capable of transmitting a WiGig band is provided. The method has the following steps: (1) mounting a WiGig module within a base; (2) pivotally arranging the antenna structure on the base; and (3) folding or extending the antenna structure relative to the base to correspondingly reduce or increase the antenna structure for transmitting and receiving a valid range of a wireless signal. The antenna structure has two body portions, and each of the two body portions has a pivoting end and a signal receiving end opposite to the pivoting end. Each of the pivoting ends is pivotally disposed on the base at a first specific angle with respect to a horizontal plane, and each of the signal receiving ends is inclined downward by a second specific angle with respect to the body portion and disposed away from the body portion.
