Patent number: 11456775Abstract: A slotted electrically conductive structure attachable to a substrate and configured to enhance penetration of an incidental radio wave through the substrate is disclosed. The structure allows a substantial portion of the incidental radio wave to penetrate from a first region to a second region through the substrate. The slotted electrically conductive structure comprises a metallic base layer of transparent metal or metal oxide; and one or more patterned slots provided on the metallic base layer. Each of the patterned slots comprises a plurality of feature elements covering an entire area of the patterned slot. The structure reduces thermal energy loss through the substrate and the plurality of feature elements is configured to allow the incidental radio wave to pass through the slotted electrically conductive structure.

Patent number: 10361488Abstract: A dielectric material antenna is disclosed. The antenna includes a first material layer made up of a first material with a low dielectric constant. A surface pattern containing pits is carved out of the first material layer. The pits carved out are then filled up with a second material layer made up of a second material that has a high dielectric constant than the first material layer to form a first antenna layer. A wave launcher is provided near to the first antenna layer with a ground provided at its bottom. The wave launcher helps to couple the energy generated from an energy source to the first antenna layer in order to radiate and receive signals.Type: GrantFiled: October 9, 2018Date of Patent: July 23, 2019Assignee: Antwave Intellectual Property LimitedInventors: Kung Bo Ng, Chun Kai Leung, Ming Lu, Hang Wong, Chi Sun Yu

Patent number: 10141635Abstract: Disclosed are a system, apparatus, and method for modifying a dipole antenna to comprise unequal arm lengths for matching the condition of two different dielectric materials such as air and human body. The modified dipole antenna is built in a cylindrical pipe shape dipole that has a hollow center to let wires pass through it and has little to no effect in antenna performance The antenna can be bent in different shape to fit in any wireless product of any shape or size. The antenna is designed to provide a stable radiation at one side and partial radiation at front side even with human body intervention. Further the antenna can be combined with another similar antenna via a power splitter/divider to form a full 360 degree radiation pattern even in presence of a human body in proximity.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2017Date of Patent: November 27, 2018Assignee: ANTWAVE TECHNOLOGY LIMITEDInventors: Chun Kai Leung, Chi Sun Yu

Patent number: 9088073Abstract: An antenna system includes an antenna element having two antenna feeds and a shared connection to a ground plane. A first antenna portion has a first resonant frequency length of at least one first wavelength formed from a first feed together with the shared ground connection. A second antenna portion has a second resonant frequency length formed from a second feed together with the shared ground connection. First and second slots are respectively positioned between the shared ground connection and the respective first and second feeds such that the slots create inductances. At least a portion of the ground plane is located directly beneath at least a portion of the first and second slots. The first and second slot inductances together with the ground plane capacitances form one or more filter components to isolate the first and second resonant frequencies in the antenna element.Type: GrantFiled: February 23, 2012Date of Patent: July 21, 2015Assignee: Hong Kong Applied Science and Technology Research Institute Company LimitedInventors: Chun Kai Leung, Corbett Ray Rowell, Tik Shun Leung, Kuang Boon Beh
