摘要:
Methods and systems are disclosed for folded antenna structures that allow for receive and/or transmit antennas to be used for portable or other devices. The folded antennas described herein can be configured, for example, to fit the design constraints and considerations for portable devices. The folded antenna structures can be implemented using relatively flat flexible printed circuits (e.g., flex circuits) and can be placed in available spaces within the portable device, such as above or behind a battery, while still providing good performance characteristics. Still further, the folded antenna structures can be implemented on a printed circuit board and/or as part of plastic materials and pieces included as part of a portable device.
摘要:
Systems and methods are disclosed for the co-location of radio frequency (RF) antennas in portable devices, portable devices and their docking stations and related systems, and devices with restrictive space constraints to allow for simultaneous receive (RX) and transmit (TX) operation without degradation. The systems and methods disclosed overcome RX channel degradation, receiver performance, and other problems seen in prior solutions. More particularly, transmit and receive antennas are oriented to provide for cross-polarization of their electro-magnetic fields, are oriented to allow one or both antenna to fall within null regions of the other antenna, and/or oriented with both cross-polarization and null region considerations in mind. Other variations and implementations are also described.
