Patent ID: 8543160

Claim:
An antenna extension system adapted for an antenna extension operation in a communication protocol, wherein the communication protocol requires P sets of transmitting antennae and Q sets of receiving antennae, and P and Q are positive integers respectively, the antenna extension system comprising: a handheld communication device, comprising M sets of transmitting antennae, N sets of receiving antennae, and a first extension connector, wherein M and N are positive integers respectively; a base device, comprising J sets of transmitting antennae, K sets of receiving antennae, and a second extension connector, wherein J and K are positive integers respectively; and the handheld communication device determines if J is equal to P-M and if K is equal to Q-N when the handheld communication device detects that the first extension connector and the second extension connector are connected; when the handheld communication device determines that J is equal to P-M and K is equal to Q-N, the handheld communication device activates the M sets of transmitting antennae and the N sets of receiving antennae and sends an enabling command to the base device to enable the J sets of transmitting antennae and the K sets of receiving antennae.
