  • Patent number: 9190733
    Abstract: An antenna having a driven element coupled to multiple additional elements to resonate at multiple frequencies. A magnetic dipole mode is generated by coupling a driven element to a second element, and additional resonances are generated by coupling additional elements to either or both of the driven or second element. One or multiple active components can be coupled to one or more of the coupled elements to provide dynamic tuning of the coupled or driven elements.

  • Patent number: 7518555
    Abstract: A multi-band antenna structure includes a ground plane, a first radiation metal arm, a first shorted parasitic arm and a second shorted parasitic arm. The first radiation metal arm is connected to a main transmitting antenna and has a first feed point for connecting a first feed line. The first shorted parasitic arm extends to the outside from the ground plane. The first shorted parasitic arm is between the first radiation metal arm and the ground plane for resonantly coupling the first radiation metal arm at a first band. The second shorted parasitic arm also extends to the outside from the ground plane. The second shorted parasitic arm is between the first radiation metal arm and the first shorted parasitic arm for resonantly coupling the first radiation metal arm at a second band.
