Patent number: 8593349Abstract: A miniature antenna includes a radiating arm that defines a grid dimension curve. In one embodiment, the radiating arm includes a planar portion and at least one extruded portion. The planar portion of the radiating arm defines the grid dimension curve. The extruded portion of the radiating arm extends from the planar portion of the radiating arm to define a three-dimensional structure. In one embodiment, the miniature antenna includes a first radiating arm that defines a first grid dimension curve within a first plane and a second radiating arm that defines a second grid dimension curve within a second plane. In one embodiment, the miniature antenna includes a radiating arm that forms a non-planar structure.Type: GrantFiled: February 21, 2012Date of Patent: November 26, 2013Assignee: Fractus, S.A.Inventors: Carles Puente Baliarda, Jordi Soler-Castany, Juan Ignacio Ortigosa-Vallejo, Jaume Anguera-Pros

Patent number: 7990320Abstract: One aspect of the invention relates to an antenna for a wireless device having spring contact elements based on strips (301, 302; 403; 503, 504; 602, 603; 612, 613; 622, 623; 632; 642; 652, 653; 682; 703, 704; 753, 754; 756; 802, 803; 1412, 1413; 1422, 1423) that, before bending, are housed in at least one gap (303, 601, 681, 804, 1411, 1421) in a main body (300, 402, 502, 600, 700, 750, 800 1400) of the antenna. The invention provides for a reduced stamping area overhead while allowing the spring contacts embodied by the strips to be placed close to the perimeter of the smallest possible rectangle that can house the main body. This can be helpful for mounting the antenna close to an edge of a printed circuit board (401, 501, 701, 801) while not extending beyond said edge.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2006Date of Patent: August 2, 2011Assignee: Fractus, S.A.Inventors: Jaume Anguera Pros, Juan Ignacio Ortigosa Vallejo, Alfonso Sanz

Patent number: 7793849Abstract: A contactless identification device includes a flat conducting structure as an electromagnetic sensor or transducer. An electromagnetic sensor architecture is suitable for all applications where contactless or hybrid cards are of advantage: high volume paying and toll applications (public transportation, public sport events, person and good identification, access to controlled areas, control of shipment of goods, handling of luggage, product control in chain production environments), etc. The contact-less identification device has had its performance enhanced by the use of space-filling techniques in the design of its electromagnetic sensor and by the use of a planar capacitor in conjunction with said flat conducting structure.Type: GrantFiled: November 3, 2008Date of Patent: September 14, 2010Inventors: Juan Ignacio Ortigosa Vallejo, Carles Puente Baliarda
