  • Publication number: 20160079676
    Abstract: The disclosure concerns a microstrip patch antenna configured for operation in the WiFi bands, including 2.4 GHz and 5.2/5.8 GHz. The microstrip patch antenna includes a pair of opposing u-shaped slots embedded in the patch conductor. The patch includes a patch width configured to provide a resonance at 2.4 GHz, and a slot width configured to provide a resonance at 5.2/5.8 GHz. Thus, the antenna provides a dual band WiFi patch antenna.

  • Patent number: 9214732
    Abstract: A modified PIFA antenna is designed for wireless local area network (WLAN) applications. The modified PIFA antenna is configured to resist detuning effects caused by use of various cable lengths and is adapted for use in the 2.4 GHz operation band. A slot extends between the ground and feed portions of the antenna for slightly increasing frequency bandwidth of the antenna.

  • Patent number: 8717240
    Abstract: A multi-angle ultra wide band antenna for electronic devices is disclosed. The said antenna cover all mobile bands worldwide: 700/850/900/1700/1800/1900 and 2100 MHz and with sufficient bandwidth to include the 2400 and 2500 MHz mainly used in wireless networks, having a radiated element supported by a first substrate and expanding into a spatial geometry for transmission and reception of radio signal. An antenna base has a plurality of first solder pads on a second substrate for physical attachment to a printed circuit board and a second solder pad electrically connected to a terminal of said antenna to radio circuitry feed point, with compatible surface mount technology. The first and second substrates are joined by a bending line as a single substrate, where the said first substrate is allowed to be bent relative to the plane of the said second substrate.

  • Publication number: 20130321240
    Abstract: An integrated MIMO antenna system is described wherein multiple antennas are fabricated on a single substrate. Antenna spacing and alignment is enhanced and controlled to a finer degree than with conventional discrete antenna fabrication techniques. Rotation of one or multiple antennas in relation to the other antennas in the system can be performed to within the accuracy of current photo-etching techniques. Metalized traces can be designed and etched on the single substrate and positioned between antenna elements to enhance inter-element isolation. The integrated MIMO antenna system can be fabricated on flexible printed circuit (FPC) material, or can be fabricated on rigid metallized substrate such as common FR4 materials. Portions of one or multiple antenna elements can be photo-etched on opposite sides of the substrate to provide an additional degree of freedom in terms of antenna placement, spacing, and rotation angle.

  • Publication number: 20130321212
    Abstract: A dual resonance monopole antenna is described wherein the antenna structure, ground connection conductor and transmission line are integrated onto a single substrate. The substrate can be of a thin, flexible type that provides for positioning one or both resonant sections of the dual resonant monopole in the plane of or orthogonal to the ground plane of the host device to provide flexibility in selecting impedance and radiation characteristics. The ground connection conductor is configured to work in conjunction with features etched into the ground layer of the host device to form a method of altering the impedance properties of one or multiple resonances of the monopole.
