Abstract:
Two antennas based on quarter wave elements angled relative to each other and connected to two ground planes that are also angled relative to one another, having a shorting connection to cancel the extra capacitance and the antennas form a structure similar to IFA or PIFA. The two antennas fed from alternate ends and spaced closely together in which the connection of each antenna to ground causes the ground plane connections to be electrically far apart. A method of manufacturing an antenna system comprising antenna feeds which are connected via a spring pin and a ground pin that is formed partially by a screw connection, spring clip, or spring pin. The antenna elements are stamped and printed on a single non-conducting surface and the antenna carrier is connected to a circuit board that contains the active electronics.
