Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to a distributed relay. The distributed relay may utilize beamforming and/or a specific physical arrangement of transmit and receive antennas to ensure a high isolation between antennas. The distributed relay may further facilitate the concurrent operation of two different intermediate frequency (IF) chains to support communications between a network entity and user device, receiving and transmitting data on each of the two IF chains independently of one another.

Abstract: A non-invasive communication apparatus for a vehicle comprising glass includes a power transfer coupler configured to wirelessly supply vehicle-generated power, via the glass, to an external antenna assembly mounted to the vehicle. The power transfer coupler comprises a substantially transparent transmit coil disposed on an inside surface of the glass and a substantially transparent receive coil disposed on an outside surface of the glass adjacent the transmit coil. One or more information transfer couplers are configured to wirelessly communicate information signals to and/or from the antenna assembly via the glass. Each of the information transfer couplers comprises a substantially transparent first coupler disposed on the inside surface of the glass and a substantially transparent second coupler disposed on the outside surface of the glass adjacent the first coupler.

Abstract: A lens antenna system is disclosed. The lens antenna system comprises a hybrid focal source antenna circuit configured to generate a source antenna beam for integration with different lens structures. In some embodiments, the hybrid focal source antenna circuit comprises a set of antenna elements coupled to one another. In some embodiments, the set of antenna elements comprises a first antenna element configured to be excited in a first spherical mode; and a second antenna element configured to be excited in a second, different, spherical mode. In some embodiments, the first spherical mode and the second spherical mode are co-polarized. In some embodiments, the lens antenna system further comprises a lens configured to shape the source antenna beam associated with the hybrid focal source antenna circuit, in order to provide an output antenna beam.

Abstract: In various aspects, a package system includes at least a first package and a second package arranged on a same side of the package carrier. Each of the first package and the second package comprises an antenna to transmit and/or receive radio frequency signals. A cover may be arranged at a distance over the first package and the second package at the same side of the package carrier as the first package and the second package. The cover comprises at least one conductive element forming a predefined pattern on a side of the cover facing the first package and the second package. The predefined pattern is configured as a frequency selective surface. The package system further includes a radio frequency signal interface wirelessly connecting the antennas of the first package and the second package. The radio frequency signal interface comprises the at least one conductive element.

Abstract: An antenna includes a pair of first and second slot antenna bodies that integrally intersect each other and that are perpendicular to each other. The first and second slot antenna bodies are adapted to respectively receive a first radio frequency (RF) signal and a second RF signal that have the same magnitude and a 90-degree phase difference. Upon receipt of the first and second RF signals, the antenna is capable of producing a horizontally polarized omnidirectional radiation pattern.
