Diode-controlled beam switching lets a dual-polarized antenna alternate between omnidirectional coverage and high-gain directional links in dense WLANs.
Difference beam steering and a crossed metallic fence help an L-band patch antenna keep high gain near the horizon while widening coverage.
Orthogonal slot sections and a metal trace cut internal noise coupling, improving signal reception in compact wireless devices.
Parallel magneto-dielectric coated shorting wires lower monopolar wire-plate antenna resonance for compact size without added bulk or loss.
Symmetrical metal stubs counter body-induced currents in a wireless terminal, reducing SAR and preserving antenna radiation efficiency.
A peripheral electrode linked to a ground pad lets a flat antenna radiate sideways to the substrate while preserving gain and impedance matching.
Z-shaped slot coupling between input and output waveguides boosts cross-polarization isolation to 65 dB while keeping a compact 73-78 GHz antenna.
