Systems and methods for operating an antenna assembly. The methods comprise: receiving a first command for tuning the antenna assembly to a first frequency selected from a plurality of different frequencies to which a strip antenna of the antenna assembly is tunable; selectively connecting ground to the strip antenna at a first location along an elongated length of the strip antenna; and connecting a transceiver to the strip antenna at a second location along the elongated length of the strip antenna using a first tank circuit of a plurality of tank circuits provided with the antenna assembly. The tank circuits are respectively associated with the different frequencies to which the strip antenna is tunable. The first tank circuit is associated with the first frequency to which the strip antenna is to be tuned.
