Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An antenna system is provided for use in wireless communication, the antenna system is contained in a modular structure. The antenna system includes a plurality of co-located antennas, including at least one active modal antenna, each of the antennas being adapted for operation at a distinct frequency band. The antenna system further includes an active tuning module for tuning a frequency response of the co-located antennas.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An antenna system, comprising: a first active modal antenna capable of selective operation about a plurality of modes, wherein each of said plurality of modes generates a distinct antenna radiation pattern resulting from the first active modal antenna; one or more passive antenna structures; and an antenna tuning module coupled to the first active modal antenna, the antenna tuning module comprising a microprocessor adapted to receive one or more input si…
