  • BALANCED ANTENNA SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20170141468
    Abstract: The invention relates to a balanced antenna system comprising a radiator connected via a matching circuit to a balun. In certain embodiments, the radiator comprises a first radiating element and a second radiating element and the matching circuit comprises a first impedance-matching circuit connected to the first radiating element and a second impedance-matching circuit connected to the second radiating element. The first and second matching circuits may be identical and are connected through the balun to a single port. To minimise the component count, the design of the matching circuit and balun is co-optimised.
    Type: Application
