Abstract:
An antenna assembly is disclosed including a ground plane having a first longitudinal edge and a second longitudinal edge. The first and second longitudinal edges may extend in a longitudinal direction and may be spaced apart in a lateral direction that is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. The ground plane may define a first plurality of slots that are open to the first longitudinal edge and a second plurality of slots that are open to the second longitudinal edge. The antenna assembly may also include a patch antenna spaced apart from the ground plane and arranged in parallel with the ground plane. The patch antenna may have a pair of opposite edges and may define a first plurality of slots that are open to one of the pair of opposite edges of the patch antenna. In some embodiments, the antenna assembly may include one or more parasitic elements that also define a plurality of slots.
