  • Patent number: 7088977
    Abstract: A wireless communication apparatus is provided in which a wireless part receives multipath detection information sent from a wireless communication apparatus at the other end (a mobile station, for example) and provides the multipath detection information to a multipath component canceling signal generation part. The multipath component canceling signal generation part generates a multipath component canceling signal based on the multipath detection information, and provides the multipath component canceling signal to the wireless part. The wireless part sends the multipath component canceling signal with a send wave to the wireless communication apparatus at the other end.

  • Patent number: 5917450
    Abstract: An antenna device having two resonance frequencies wherein two radiating patches are respectively provided on one surface and on the other surface of a dielectric plate which is disposed above a ground plate with a space interposed therebetween. A coupling control capacitor element is connected between these two radiating patches and resonance control capacitor elements are connected between the radiating patches and the ground plate, respectively. Capacitance of the coupling control capacitor element is selected such that a current coupled from one of the two radiating patches to the other and a current supplied from the said one of the radiating patches to the other via the coupling control capacitor element are in opposite phase at the other one of the radiating patches.

  • Patent number: 5767810
    Abstract: In a microstrip antenna device which has a radiating patch and a ground plate disposed opposite and in parallel to each other, a metal plate is provided on the ground plate in the vicinity of at least one of the opposite marginal edges of the radiating patch in the direction of resonance to form an added capacitance between an open end of the radiating patch in the direction of resonance and the ground plate, thereby permitting reduction of the antenna length.

  • Patent number: 5617105
    Abstract: A rod antenna element is connected at its lower end to one end of a coaxial impedance converter, the other end of which is connected to a feeder. A coil antenna element is capacitively coupled to the rod antenna element to provide a double resonance characteristic. When held at its retracted position, the rod antenna element, inserted in an outer conductor of the coaxial impedance converter, may preferably form an inner conductor larger in diameter than that when the rod antenna element is at its extended-out position, and the rod antenna element is connected to a coil antenna element with a low impedance.

  • Patent number: 5568155
    Abstract: Double-resonance characteristics are obtained with a small and simple construction by arranging a conductive planar radiation element approximately parallel to a conductive ground plane with an intermediary insulator, connecting a feed line to these, and further connecting a parasitic line to a separate contact point at a distance from the contact point of the feed line.
