Patent number: 11387546Abstract: Disclosed is a cross loop antenna system for an aerial vehicle. In one embodiment, the cross loop antenna system includes a cross bar antenna and a ground plane. The cross bar antenna includes two thin coplanar perpendicular bars that intersect in the middle and are parallel to the ground plane. Each bar couples to the ground plane at each end, comprising an antenna loop. Thus, the cross loop antenna system comprises two intersecting single-fed loops. The antenna can operate at a wavelength that is approximately twice the length of the bars. In such an embodiment, the antenna system may be resonant. The distance between the bars and the ground plane may be relatively small, thus minimalizing the vertical profile of the antenna. The antenna may be operated as a dual-band antenna and may produce an omnidirectional radiation pattern. An aerial vehicle may include two such antennas.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2020Date of Patent: July 12, 2022Assignee: GoPro, Inc.Inventors: John Michael Spall, Adrian Matthew Cooke

Publication number: 20170168481Abstract: Disclosed is a configuration for displaying a user interface on a device (e.g., a remote controller) to assist a user in correctly orienting the device for improved communication with an aerial vehicle. Position information is received by device from the aerial vehicle. The remote controller detects its own position and orientation. Based on the orientation of the remote controller and the relative position of the remote controller and aerial vehicle, the remote controller displays an indication to the user to assist the user in orienting the remote controller so that one or more directional antennas of the remote controller are oriented for effective communication between the device and the aerial vehicle. Also disclosed is an antenna configuration within a housing of a remote controller. The antenna configuration includes two ceramic patch antennas.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 8, 2016Publication date: June 15, 2017Inventors: Sean Michael Flanigan, Joseph Anthony Enke, Adrian Matthew Cooke, John Michael Spall

Patent number: 9007267Abstract: A mobile wireless communications device has a portable handheld housing. A circuit board is carried by the portable handheld housing. RF circuitry is carried by the circuit board. A diversity antenna and main antenna are carried by the portable handheld housing and coupled to the RF circuitry and operative together. The RF circuitry tunes the diversity antenna into a diversity communications frequency band to achieve a diversity mode of operation with the main antenna and tunes the diversity antenna into a non-diversity communications frequency band when cross-coupling has occurred from the diversity antenna to the main antenna when operating in the diversity communications frequency band. A switch is carried by the portable handheld housing and connected to the RF circuitry and coupled between the diversity and main antennae and disconnects the diversity antenna when operating in the non-diversity band to prevent cross-coupling from the diversity antenna to the main antenna.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2012Date of Patent: April 14, 2015Assignee: BlackBerry LimitedInventors: Ying Tong Man, Adrian Matthew Cooke, Yihong Qi, Joshua Kwan Ho Wong
