Abstract: A portable wireless communications device such as a telephone handset having a vertically corrected antenna module pivotally secured to the handset for rotation about a first pivot axis. The antenna module can be rotated into a predetermined orientation, independent of handset orientation. An antenna mounted on the module is oriented vertically when the module is in the predetermined orientation. When the antenna module is rotated for use, a mechanism incorporated in the module support structure automatically rotates the antenna module about a second pivot axis which is substantially perpendicular to the first. This second rotation places the antenna at an angle that compensates for tilting of the handset during use about an axis parallel to the second axis, or along the first. That is, the antenna is shifted by a preselected angle in vertical orientation, typically around 10-15 degrees, in a direction perpendicular to the first direction of rotation to compensate for positioning a speaker and microphone for use.

Abstract: A wireless portable phone handset for use in satellite communication systems having a vertically correcting antenna module pivotally secured to the handset for free rotation about a pivot axis. The antenna module contains a magnetic actuator mechanism for urging the module to pivot into a predetermined vertical orientation regardless of the handset orientation. An antenna projects from the module in a direction which is vertically upright when the module is in its predetermined vertical orientation. As the handset is moved into an angular orientation, the module pivots under influence of gravity, and a magnetic field from a magnetic driver, until the antenna is oriented vertically.

Abstract: A portable phone unit for use in satellite communication systems has a vertically correcting antenna module pivotally secured to the handset for free rotation about a pivot axis. The module contains a mechanism, such as a gravitational counterweight for urging the module to pivot into a predetermined vertical orientation regardless of the handset orientation. An antenna projects from the module in a direction which is vertically upright when the module is in its predetermined vertical orientation. A mast mounted antenna module can also be used to take advantage of dissimilar antenna segment weights for multiple frequency antennas. As the handset is moved into an angular orientation, the module pivots under the weight of the counterweight, or a portion of the antenna itself, until the antenna is oriented vertically.

Abstract: A portable wireless communications device such as a telephone handset (10, 110) having a vertically corrected antenna module (34, 134) pivotally secured to the handset (10, 110) for rotation about a first pivot axis (40, 140). The antenna module (34, 134) can be rotated into a predetermined orientation, independent of handset orientation. An antenna (24, 124) mounted on the module (34, 134) is oriented vertically when the module (34, 134) is in the predetermined orientation. When the antenna module (34, 134) is rotated for use, a mechanism incorporated in the module (34, 134) support structure automatically rotates the antenna module (34, 134) about a second pivot axis (190) which is substantially perpendicular to the first (40, 140). This second rotation places the antenna (24, 124) at an angle that compensates for tilting of the handset (10, 110) during use about an axis parallel to the second axis (190), or along the first (40, 140). That is, the antenna (24, 124) is shifted by a preselected angle in vertical orientation, typically around 10-15 degrees, in a direction perpendicular to the first direction of rotation to compensate for positioning a speaker and microphone (26, 28) for use.
