  • Patent number: 10056682
    Abstract: A multi-band antenna includes at least one structure useable at multiple frequency ranges. The structure includes at least two levels of detail, with one level of detail making up another level of detail. The levels of detail are composed of closed plane figures bounded by the same number of sides. An interconnection circuit links the multi-band antenna to an input/output connector and incorporates adaptation networks, filters or diplexers. Each of the closed plane figures is linked to at least one other closed plane figure to exchange electromagnetic power. For at least 75% of the closed plane figures, the region or area of contact, intersection, or interconnection between the closed plane figures is less than 50% of their perimeter or area. Not all of the closed plane figures have the same size, and the perimeter of the structure has a different number of sides than its constituent closed plane figures.

  • Patent number: 10033114
    Abstract: A wireless handheld device comprises an internal antenna system that operates in first and second non-overlapping frequency bands with respective bandwidths. The antenna system includes: a ground plane; first and second antenna elements connected to a common input/output port, wherein a bandwidth of each of the antenna elements is less than at least one of the first and second operating frequency bandwidths and less than a frequency bandwidth for the antenna system; a combining structure to couple first and second signal transmission paths from the antenna elements to the common input/output port; and a phase shifting element on the first signal transmission path that imparts a phase delay to signals on the first signal transmission path. The phase delay minimizes a sum of reflection coefficients of the antenna elements to cause the frequency bandwidth for the antenna system to include at least the first and second operating frequency bands.

  • Publication number: 20180145399
    Abstract: A wireless device includes at least one slim radiating system having a slim radiating structure and a radio-frequency system. The slim radiating structure includes one or more booster bars. The booster bar has slim width and height factors that facilitate its integration within the wireless device and the excitation of a resonant mode in the ground plane layer, and has a location factor that enables it to achieve the most favorable radio-frequency performance for the available space to allocate the booster bar. The at least one slim radiating system may be configured to transmit and receive electromagnetic wave signals in one or more frequency regions of the electromagnetic spectrum.
