  • Publication number: 20240113451
    Abstract: An antenna assembly can include a front cover, a back cover, and one or more ground reference portions with one or more feed networks positioned between the front cover and the back cover. The antenna assembly can include a first antenna array and a second antenna array coupled to the one or more ground reference portions. The antenna arrays can be an ultra-wide band directional antenna array for mobile and client based application for the wireless telecommunication marketplace. The first antenna and second antenna arrays can two orthogonal polarizations, each covering 1800 to 4200 MHz, a 2.3:1 bandwidth. The ultra-wide band directional antenna array can have ultra-wide bandwidth and narrow elevation and azimuth beamwidths which can allow for an enhancement in the link budget between the base station and the mobile or client by increasing the signal strength from the basestation and decreasing the received signal strength from interfering sources.

  • Patent number: 11941340
    Abstract: Aspects of the invention include methods, systems, and computer program products for integrated circuit development using cross-hierarchy antenna condition verification. A method includes obtaining a design of a hierarchical macro distributed between multiple files for an integrated circuit and analyzing, by a design verification tool, a route between at least one child macro and at least one pin of the hierarchical macro as defined in the files. The method further includes determining, by the design verification tool, a plurality of connection characteristics of the at least one child macro and the at least one pin forming the route and calculating, by the design verification tool, an antenna condition for the route based on the connection characteristics. The design of the hierarchical macro is adjusted to remove a violation of an antenna rule based on determining that the antenna condition of the route violates the antenna rule.
