  • Patent number: 11342662
    Abstract: There is described a device for switching communications comprising a circuit board as well as first, second, and third antennas. The first antenna is coupled to the circuit board, and the first antenna is focused on a first direction and based on a first wireless technology. The second antenna is coupled to the circuit board, and the second antenna is focused on a second direction and based on the first wireless technology, in which the second direction is different from the first direction. The third antenna is coupled to the circuit board, and the third antenna is focused on a third direction and based on a second wireless technology, in which the second wireless technology is different from the first wireless technology. The second antenna may operate as a shield for the third antenna.

  • Publication number: 20210273324
    Abstract: There is described a device for managing communications comprising a sensor, first and second antennas, and first and second shields. The sensor has a field of view and includes a first side and a second side, in which the second side is substantially opposite the first side. The first antenna is positioned offset from the first side of the sensor, and the second antenna is positioned offset from the second side of the sensor. The first shield is positioned adjacent to the first side of the sensor and a first distance from the first antenna, and the second shield is positioned adjacent to the second side of the sensor and a second distance from the second antenna. The first shield focuses the first antenna toward the field of view, and the second shield focuses the second antenna toward the field of view.
