  • Patent number: 8531337
    Abstract: The present invention refers to an antenna diversity system comprising at least a first antenna and a second antenna wherein the first antenna substantially behaves as an electric current source or as a magnetic current source, and the second antenna substantially behaves as an electric current source or as a magnetic current source and a corresponding wireless device. Further the invention relates to an SMT-type slot-antenna component comprising at least one conductive surface or sheet of metal in which the pattern of a slot is created, at least one contact terminal accessible from the exterior of said component to electrically connect the conductive surface included in the slot-antenna component with the ground plane of a circuit board such as a printed circuit board and a corresponding wireless device.

  • Patent number: 8421686
    Abstract: A system comprising at least one antenna and a circuit, wherein the circuit is at least in part not a semiconductor chip or a die. The at least one antenna and the circuit are arranged on a package. Alternatively described is a system comprising at least one antenna and at least one circuit, wherein the at least one antenna and the at least one circuit are arranged on a package, wherein the at least one circuit performs a radio-frequency and optionally a base-band and/or a digital functionality.

  • Patent number: 8330259
    Abstract: A IC package for a wireless device includes an antenna that is attached to the chip. The electrically conductive elements of the antenna are spaced away from the antenna and particularly the endpoint of the antenna to prevent interference with the antenna. An element on the IC package may be shielded antenna. The antenna may have the shape of a space-filling curve, including a Hilbert, box-counting or grid dimension curve.

  • Patent number: 7924226
    Abstract: The invention refers to an antenna comprising: a conducting trace (15, 20), said conducting trace (15, 20) defining a curve (1, 4, 5, 6, 6?, 6?, 8), said curve (1, 4, 5, 6, 6?, 6?, 8) including two or more feeding points (16a, 16b, 16c, 17, 18, 19), a portion of said curve (1, 4, 5, 6, 6?, 6?, 8) being shaped according a geometry selected from a group of geometries including a space-filling curve, a grid-dimension curve, a box-counting curve and a contour curve or the curve (1, 4, 5, 6, 6?, 6?, 8) or a portion of said curve having a shape of a multilevel structure. Further the invention refers to a related SMD component, an IC-package, a wireless device and a method for contacting an antenna.
