Abstract:
1. A dual-feed port dual band (DFDB) antenna module, comprising: a first antenna element disposed on a first planar surface; a second antenna element disposed on a second planar surface; and a third antenna element disposed on a third planar surface, wherein said first, second and third planar surfaces are substantially orthogonal with respect to one another and wherein said first and second antenna elements are in electrical contact at a first common edge therebetween and said first and third antenna elements are in electrical contact at a second common edge therebetween and said second and third antenna elements are in electrical contact at a third common edge therebetween, and further wherein said second antenna element includes a feed port for coupling to one type of transceiver circuitry adapted to operate in a short-range wireless communications band and said third antenna element includes another feed port for coupling to another type of receiver circuitry adapted to operate in a GPS band.
