  • Publication number: 20160111783
    Abstract: A planar monopole antenna for dual-band Wi-Fi application is disclosed. The antenna has a ground copper and a radiation copper. The radiation copper is adhered to a substrate and has a conductive layer attached to a first surface of the substrate wherein the conductive layer further comprises a first radiation control section operating at a first bandwidth and connected in series via a central post with a second radiation control section operating at a second bandwidth different than the first bandwidth, and a ground section having a rectangularly-shaped pattern with a U-shaped opening at one end thereof positioned around a portion of the second radiation control section, wherein the planar antenna has a current distribution that is higher along the central post and a squared end of the rectangularly shaped ground section. Reception of the radiation copper into the opening of the ground copper forms an U-shaped separation that is approximately 0.6 mm wide.

  • Patent number: 8810457
    Abstract: Described herein are antenna designs and configurations that provide flexible solutions for creating compact antennas with multiple-band capabilities. For example, a hybrid PIFA-monopole antenna configuration and design is described. As another example, non-planar (e.g., orthogonal) and composite radiating structures incorporating various radiating element and ground plane configurations are described. Connective structures are also described for providing physical rigidity and ground plane connectivity to composite radiation elements. In embodiments described herein of composite radiating structures, multiple antennas may be included through passive radiating elements potentially combined with active circuitry. Composite radiating structures with multiple antennas may be used in multiple-in and multiple-out (MIMO) antenna applications.
