Abstract
An antenna assembly includes an antenna base, a first cellular antenna mounted to the antenna base along the central longitudinal axis, a second cellular antenna mounted to the antenna base along the central longitudinal axis, a satellite antenna mounted to the antenna base along the central longitudinal axis, a first Wi-Fi antenna mounted to the antenna base offset from the central longitudinal axis toward the first side, and a second Wi-Fi antenna mounted to the antenna base offset from the central longitudinal axis toward the second side.
Claims23
An antenna assembly comprising:
- an antenna base including a ground plane, the antenna base extending along a central longitudinal axis between a front and a rear of the antenna base, the antenna base having a first side and a second side extending between the front and the rear;
- a first cellular antenna configured to be operable over one or more cellular frequencies, the first cellular antenna being mounted to the antenna base along the central longitudinal axis;
- a second cellular antenna configured to be operable over one or more cellular frequencies, the second cellular antenna being mounted to the antenna base along the central longitudinal axis;
- a satellite antenna configured to be operable over one or more satellite frequencies, the satellite antenna configured to be operable for receiving Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals, the satellite antenna being mounted to the antenna base along the central longitudinal axis;
- a first Wi-Fi antenna configured to be operable over one or more Wi-Fi frequencies, the first Wi-Fi antenna being mounted to the antenna base offset from the central longitudinal axis toward the first side;
- and
- a second Wi-Fi antenna configured to be operable over one or more Wi-Fi frequencies, the second Wi-Fi antenna being mounted to the antenna base offset from the central longitudinal axis toward the second side.
