Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of communications, and, more particularly, to wireless communications and related methods.
  • the typical cellular device may include several antennas, for example, a cellular antenna, a global positioning system antenna, and a WiFi IEEE 802.11g antenna. These antennas may comprise external antennas and internal antennas.
  • internal antennas allow cellular devices to have a smaller footprint. Moreover, they are also preferred over external antennas for mechanical and ergonomic reasons. Internal antennas are also protected by the cellular device's housing and therefore tend to be more durable than external antennas. External antennas may be cumbersome and may make the cellular device difficult to use, particularly in limited-space environments. Yet, one potential drawback of typical internal antennas is that they are in relatively close proximity to the user's head when the cellular device is in use, thereby increasing the specific absorption rate (SAR). Yet more, hearing aid compatibility (HAC) may also be affected negatively. Also, other components within the cellular device may cause interference with or may be interfered by the internal antenna.
  • SAR specific absorption rate

  • the multiple-band antenna 23 may exploit the natural resonances, known as characteristics modes, of an arbitrary metallic object to achieve low correlation between multiple antennas in a MIMO system.
  • Typical MIMO systems may rely on an antenna array where the antenna elements are usually separated from each other by half of a wavelength.
  • LTE bands such as Band 17 (704 MHz - 746 MHz) or Band 13 (746 MHz - 777 MHz
  • the half wavelength spatial separation may not be achievable in handheld devices, such as a smartphone where the overall dimension of the device is on the order of a quarter wavelength of the operating wavelength.

  • the current distributions excited by each antenna element in a MIMO system share one radiator, i.e. the chassis of the device.
  • This is in conflict to the multi-antenna requirement of MIMO because multiple antennas usually mean that there are multiple radiating elements, which may not be true in a handset.
  • the multiple-band antenna 23 may relax this requirement and enable: high performance MIMO with a single radiating element; and systematic antenna element placement with minimal correlation and gain imbalance.
