Abstract: An antenna sharing system and method. In the illustrative embodiment, the inventive system includes a first matching network coupled to a first circuit; a second matching network coupled to a second circuit; and a switch having a first throw coupled to the first network, a second throw coupled to the second network, and a pole coupled to the antenna. In the specific implementation, the first circuit is a cellular subsystem and the second circuit is a Global Positioning System subsystem. The system further includes a controller for selectively actuating the switch whereby the first network is coupled to the antenna in a first operational mode and the second network is coupled to the antenna in a second operational mode. In the illustrative implementation, the first network provides an impedance match to the switch and the antenna with respect to the first circuit. The second network provides an impedance match to the switch and the antenna with respect to the second circuit. In the preferred embodiment, the invention includes a first diplexer network coupled to a first circuit; a second diplexer network coupled to a second circuit; and an antenna match which incorporates a shunt SPST switch to shift the matching frequency between the cellular (or PCS) and GPS bands.

Abstract: A quadrifilar antenna is comprised of four radiators which, in the preferred embodiment, are etched onto a radiator portion of a microstrip substrate. The microstrip substrate is formed into a cylindrical shape such that the radiators are helically wound. Also etched onto the microstrip substrate is a feed network that provides 0 DEG , 90 DEG , 180 DEG and 270 DEG signals to the antenna radiators. The feed network utilizes a combination of one or more branch line couplers and one or more power dividers to accept an input signal from a transmitter and to provide therefrom the 0 DEG , 90 DEG , 180 DEG and 270 DEG signals needed to drive the antenna. For receive operations, the feed network utilizes these same components to receive the 0 DEG , 90 DEG , 180 DEG and 270 DEG signals from the antenna radiators and to provide a single output signal to a communications receiver. The power divider accepts an input signal and provides therefrom two output signals differing from each other in phase by 180 DEG . The branch line coupler accepts an input signal and provides therefrom two output signals differing from one another in phase by 90 DEG .
