摘要:
The present disclosure generally relates to any device capable of wireless communication, such as a mobile telephone or wearable device, having one or more antennas. After measuring reflection coefficients of a device at three different DVC states, the reflection coefficient for all other DVC states can be calculated. Thus, based solely upon three reflection coefficient measurements, the antenna can be tuned to adjust for any changes in impedance at the antenna.

The present invention generally relates to a MEMS DVC utilizing one or more MIM capacitors. The MIM capacitor may be disposed between the MEMS device and the RF pad or the MIM capacitor may be integrated into the MEMS device itself. The MIM capacitor ensures that a low resistance for the MEMS DVC is achieved.

The present invention generally relates to a MEMS DVC having a shielding electrode structure between the RF electrode and one or more other electrodes that cause a plate to move. The shielding electrode structure may be grounded and, in essence, block or shield the RF electrode from the one or more electrodes that cause the plate to move. By shielding the RF electrode, coupling of the RF electrode to the one or more electrodes that cause the plate to move is reduced and capacitance modulation is reduced or even eliminated.

摘要:
The present invention generally relates to cellular phones having multiple antennas. The invention relates to how two antennas in a diversity or MIMO antenna system interact through mutual coupling. The mutual coupling is due to proximity of the two antennas, their antenna pattern and efficiency. The performance of the system can be optimized by adjusting the mutual coupling between the antennas. The primary and secondary antennas can be “tuned” and “de-tuned” respectively to enhance system performance. In this invention, the primary and secondary antennas are tuned independently using MEMS capacitor configured in the antenna aperture for frequency tuning.
摘要:
The present disclosure generally relates to any device capable of wireless communication, such as a mobile telephone or wearable device, having one or more antennas. By applying a variable reactance (capacitive or inductive component) antenna aperture tuner within a simple, scalar antenna aperture tuning system, the maintenance of a constant antenna resonant frequency in the presence of environmental changes or head/hand effects is obtained. The variable reactance is used to adjust the resonant frequency of the antenna to stay at the desired target frequency in response to external variables that would otherwise shift the resonance away from the operating frequency of the device. Adjusting the resonant frequency of the antenna in response to externally induced changes maintains the radiating efficiency of the antenna and simultaneously avoids impedance mismatch between the antenna and the respective transmit/receive path in the radio, thereby minimizing transmission losses.
