  • Patent number: 10658748
    Abstract: What is provided is a shield housing for shielding interconnect structures and/or components disposed on a circuit board, wherein at least two antenna radiators can be disposed on the shield housing, and wherein the shield housing is configured in such a manner that it can cover the interconnect structures and/or components disposed on the circuit board, at least in part, can be connected with a ground surface of the circuit board, and has a region between the antenna radiators, which region is configured in such a manner that it provides electrical decoupling of the feed of the antenna radiators from one another.

  • Patent number: 10297891
    Abstract: The present disclosure shows a high-frequency phase shifter assembly having at least two high-frequency phase shifters stacked above one another which are arranged in at least one housing, wherein at least one housing plate is provided between the high-frequency phase shifters in the stack; and wherein the high-frequency phase shifters each have a rotatably supported pick-up element which is electrically coupled to a feed line via a coupling point arranged in the region of its rotary axle; and wherein the pick-up elements of the high-frequency phase shifters are mechanically coupled for the synchronous adjustment of the high-frequency phase shifters. Provision is made in this respect that the mechanical coupling of the pick-up elements of the high-frequency phase shifters takes place via a coupling arrangement spaced apart from the rotary axles of the pick-up elements.
