## Background
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to an electronic device and an antenna module, and more particularly, to an electronic device and an antenna module for integrating a global positioning system antenna and a digital mobile television antenna.
2. Description of the Prior Art
With gradual growth of electronic products, certain electronic products may receive radio global positioning system (GPS) signals or digital mobile television (DIMO TV) signals, such as digital video broadcasting-terrestrial (DVB-T) signals, for watching radio channels.
Since a frequency domain of a GPS signal is significantly separated from a frequency domain of a DIMO TV signal, it is impossible for a conventional electronic product to receive and to integrate both the GPS signal and the DIMO TV signal simultaneously. For example, a frequency domain of a DIMO TV signal from digital video broadcasting-terrestrial is classified into a first frequency domain lying within the Very High Frequency (VHF) band, which ranges between 30 MHz and 300 MHz, and a second frequency domain lying within the Ultra High Frequency (UHF) band, which ranges between 300 MHz and 3000 MHz. The first frequency domain roughly ranges between 150 MHz and 250 MHz. The second frequency domain roughly ranges between 450 MHz and 900 MHz. A frequency domain of a GPS signal lies roughly above 1500 MHz. The three abovementioned frequency domains are not overlapped with each other. Therefore, an electronic product capable of receiving and integrating signals of the three abovementioned frequency domains is required to acquire a bandwidth of at least 1300 MHz. It indicates the fact that a huge bottleneck will be met while designing an electronic product having such a huge bandwidth.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The claimed invention provides an electronic device for integrating a GPS antenna and a DIMO TV antenna. The electronic device comprises an antenna module and a receiving module.

A mix signal is generated by mixing the second GPS signal with the second DIMO TV signal. A receiving module comprises a second filter module coupled to the first filter module for receiving the mix signal, for filtering both the second GPS signal and the second DIMO TV signal, for generating a third GPS signal, a third DIMO TV signal, and a fourth DIMO TV signal, for receiving a second DC voltage, and for filtering out noise within said second DC voltage to generate the first DC voltage. A frequency domain of the third DIMO TV signal lies within the frequency domain of the VHF band, and a frequency domain of the fourth DIMO TV signal lies within the frequency domain of the UHF band.
The claimed invention also provides an antenna module for integrating signals of a GPS antenna and a DIMO TV antenna.
