Publication number: 20190107617Abstract: A fin-type planar antenna and a deployable dipole antenna are combined into a probabilistic system as a co-located orthogonal diversity fin antenna to reduce or eliminate cross polarization fades and cancellation dropouts common to wireless audio systems used in theaters, churches and convention centers over coaxial wired connections. Additionally, an optical line may connect the diversity fin antenna to a further circuit. The antenna system features broad bandwidth, resistance to deep nulls or fades caused by cross polarization, resistance to destructive interference, and an air space dielectric covering provides resistance to detuning in the presence of rain, or touching objects.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 6, 2017Publication date: April 11, 2019Applicant: RF Venue, Inc.Inventor: Robert J. Crowley

Patent number: 9992734Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for analyzing radio frequency (RF) data. RF data is received from one or more RF sensors, wherein the RF data is collected over a particular frequency range and resolution bandwidth. One or more frequencies not in use are determined based on the RF data and a signal level threshold. One or more recommended frequencies for use are calculated based on the one or more open frequencies and an intermodulation function, wherein each of the one or more recommended frequencies reduces a potential for intermodulation distortion than other frequencies in the frequency range.Type: GrantFiled: July 5, 2016Date of Patent: June 5, 2018Assignee: RF Venue, Inc.Inventor: Christopher John Regan

Patent number: 9142882Abstract: A spiral, helical antenna is configured to produce a generally circular polarized radiation pattern covering a range of frequencies, over a ground plane. The antenna is comprised of a spring-like spiral conductor that may be held in compression by a size and shape regulating outer nonconductive membrane. The assembly may be compressed and or extended to adjust the antenna for best performance in a particular situation. The assembly may be compressed into a generally flattened state for storage and or transportation, and extended at a later time for use. Accurate antenna dimensions and good performance are afforded by the use of high quality spring materials in conjunction with precise membrane dimensions.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2014Date of Patent: September 22, 2015Assignee: RF VenueInventors: Desiree L. Fyler, Robert J. Crowley

Patent number: 8836593Abstract: A fin-type planar antenna and a deployable dipole antenna are combined into a system as a diversity fin antenna to reduce or eliminate cross polarization fades and dropouts common to wireless audio systems used in theatres, churches and convention centers. A dual feedline connects the diversity fin antenna system to a diversity-equipped receiver in a convenient and rapid manner. The antenna system features broad bandwidth, resistance to deep nulls or fades caused by cross polarization, and an air space dielectric covering provides resistance to detuning in the presence of rain, or touching objects.Type: GrantFiled: August 2, 2011Date of Patent: September 16, 2014Assignee: RF Venue, IncInventors: Robert J.
