Very short-range high-speed full-duplex wireless communications

A wireless communication system comprising:

• a transceiver configured
• to modulate desired transmission data onto a band of frequencies, thereby generating a transmission signal, and
• to demodulate a reception signal within the band of frequencies in order to obtain received data;
• and
• an antenna module that includes
• a first radiative element, coupled to the transceiver and configured to receive and broadcast the transmission signal, and
• a second radiative element, also coupled to the transceiver and configured to receive the reception signal, simultaneous with said broadcast of the transmission signal, from a source and provide said reception signal to the transceiver,
• wherein the first radiative element and the second radiative element have a common centroid which is equivalent to a common geometric center,
• wherein the transceiver and the antenna module are part of a single wireless device that is configured for full-duplex wireless communication, at a data rate of at least 100 megabits per second (Mb/s) over a distance that is not more than a maximum specified distance from the antenna module, and
• wherein the maximum specified distance is not more than 100 millimeters (mm).

A wireless communication antenna module, comprising:

• a first radiative element, configured to be coupled to a transceiver to broadcast a transmission signal to another device over a band of frequencies, and
• a second radiative element, also configured to be coupled to the transceiver and receive a reception signal from the another device over the band of frequencies, and provide the reception signal to the transceiver,
• wherein the first radiative element and the second radiative element have a common centroid which is equivalent to a common geometric center;
• wherein said first radiative element includes a first part and a second part, connected to a first waveguide and a second waveguide via a first sub-port and a second sub-port;
• and
• wherein said second radiative element also includes a third part and a fourth part, connected to a third waveguide and a fourth waveguide via a third sub-port and a fourth sub-port.
