Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Electronic devices may be provided that contain wireless communications circuitry. The wireless communications circuitry may include radio-frequency transceiver circuitry and first and second antennas. An electronic device may include a housing. The first antenna may be located at an upper end of the housing and the second antenna may be located at a lower end of the housing. A peripheral conductive member may run around the edges of the housing and may be used in forming the first and second antennas. The radio-frequency transceiver circuitry may have a transmit-receive port and a receive port. Switching circuitry may connect the first antenna to the transmit-receive port and the second antenna to the receiver port or may connect the first antenna to the receive port and the second antenna to the transmit-receive port.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An electronic device, comprising: a loop antenna; a two-branch inverted-F antenna; radio-frequency transceiver circuitry having first and second ports; switching circuitry that is operable in a first mode in which the loop antenna is coupled to the first port and the inverted-F antenna is coupled to the second port and that is operable in a second mode in which the loop antenna is coupled to the second port and the inverted-F antenna is coupled to the…
