Abstract: An electronic device includes: an interface circuit; and a first instance of an antenna having a radiator and multiple sets of reflectors and directors arranged along different axes passing through the radiator in a horizontal plane. A given set of reflectors and directors includes a given reflector and a given director on opposite sides of the radiator and along a given axis. During operation, the interface circuit provides control signals to switching elements that selectively electrically couple the one or more of the reflectors, one or more of the directors, or both to ground, where the one or more of the reflectors, one or more of the directors, or both modify an antenna radiation pattern of the radiator. Then, the interface circuit communicates, via the first instance of the antenna, a packet or a frame with a second electronic device.

Abstract: An electronic device includes: a first pair of antennas having a first polarization along a first direction in a plane, where the first pair of antennas are spatially offset from each other along a second direction in the plane; and a second pair of antennas having a second polarization along the second direction, where the second pair of antennas are spatially offset from each other along the first direction. During operation, the electronic device may configure switching elements to: select the first pair of antennas and electrically couple the second pair of antennas to ground; or select the second pair of antennas and electrically couple the first pair of antennas to ground. Then, the electronic device may communicate a packet or a frame with a second electronic device via the selected first pair of antennas or the second pair of antennas.
