  • Patent number: 9532272
    Abstract: Communications apparatus includes first and second radio modules and an antenna array coupled to the first and the second radio modules and includes multiple antennas. When the first and the second radio modules operate at the same time, the first radio module negotiates with a first communications device an amount of antenna(s) to be used by a first message, so that the first radio module operates with the amount of the antenna(s) and second radio module operates with at least one of the remaining antenna(s).

  • Publication number: 20140194155
    Abstract: A communication apparatus includes a first wireless module and a second wireless module. The first wireless module includes a communication device, an antenna module and a filter module. The filter module is coupled between the communication device and the antenna module and includes a first filter, a second filter, a first switch switching in response to a control signal, and a second switch switching in response to the control signal. The communication device includes a processor issuing the control signal according to a radio frequency utilized by the second wireless module to select the first filter or the second filter to electronically connect to the communication device and the antenna module.
