  • Utilization of antenna loading for impedance matching
    Patent number: 10879586
    Abstract: Techniques for utilization of antenna loading for impedance matching are described. In at least some embodiments, a device (e.g., a smart phone) includes multiple antennas that are employed to send and receive wireless signals for the device. The device further includes impedance matching functionality communicatively connected to the antennas, and configured to perform impedance matching for one of the antennas based on loading (e.g., dielectric loading) of another of the antennas.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 10, 2016
    Date of Patent: December 29, 2020
    Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLC
    Inventors: Alireza Mahanfar, Javier Rodriguez De Luis, Stanley Yu Tao Ng, Benjamin J. Shewan, Kim Willi Schulze
