  • Patent number: 7071880
    Abstract: An antenna structure has a substrate, having a first-side surface and a second-side surface. A first antenna substructure on the first-side surface has a first straight metal line and a second straight metal line. The second straight metal line joins to the first straight metal line, and is substantially perpendicular to the first straight metal line. A second antenna substructure disposed on the second-side surface has a metal plate, serving as a ground, wherein the first straight metal line is overlapping with the metal plate. An L-shape metal line protrudes from the metal plate, wherein a portion of the L-shape metal line is parallel and overlapping with the second straight metal line, and a portion of the L-shape metal line is parallel to the first straight metal line without overlapping.

  • Patent number: 6876836
    Abstract: A layout of a wireless communication circuit on a printed circuit board (PCB), which is a rectangular board wherein a first side is a Y-axis and a second side is an X-axis. The layout has a first antenna located at a corner between the first side and the second side. An antenna switch and a first filter are located at middle y-coordinate and a X-coordinate. A RF integrated circuit (RFIC) is located after the first filter. A first regulator is located near the second side and higher than the RFIC. A media access control (MAC) is located at about a middle y-coordinate and higher than the first regulator. An oscillator is located at a corner between the second side and the third side. A second regulator is located near the fourth side and above the first regulator. A power amplifier is located near the fourth side above the RFIC. A second filter and a transmitting/receiving (T/R) switch are located before the power amplifier. A second antenna is located at a corner between the first side and the fourth side.

  • Publication number: 20040018815
    Abstract: A wireless communication circuit has a first and second antennas. The second antenna is also set for use as a transmitting antenna. An antenna switch respectively receives signals from the first and second antennas and selects one of the signals. A first filter is used to receive the output signal from the antenna switch. A RFIC unit is used to receive an output signal from the first filter during the receiving mode as well as output a transmitting signal during the transmitting mode. A power amplifier is used to receive the signal and amplify the signal. A second filter receives the amplified transmitting signal to filter away an undesired frequency noise. Also and, a transmission/receiving (T/R) switch receives the transmitting signal from the second filter, wherein the T/R switch can also be switched to allow the signal received from the second antenna to be output to the second terminal of the antenna switch.

  • Publication number: 20040005907
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for transmit power adjustment in radio frequency systems. According to the invention, the apparatus is made up of a detector, an input module and an output module. The detector is adapted to detect the output power of a transmit channel. The input module coupled to the detector generates an input value substantially indicative of the output power while the output module accepts an output value that is used to adjust the output power. Also, there is a means for computing the output value based on a difference multiplied by a predetermined factor, where the difference is between the input value and a target value substantially corresponding to the desired output power.
