Wireless access point system

A wireless access point system comprising:

• an RF feed port;
• a transmission line communicatively coupled to the RF feed port and arranged for receiving and providing RF communication signals;
• an array comprising antenna elements that are communicatively coupled to the transmission line and arranged for wireless communication;
• and
• impedance tuning elements that are each electrically coupled to a respective antenna element of the array, the wireless access point system further comprising at least one of:
• a beamforming module adapted to set a resonant impedance value of the impedance tuning elements of a first sub-array, wherein the respective antenna elements of the first sub-array resonate at a first frequency, the beamforming module further adapted to set a non-resonant impedance value of the impedance tuning elements of a second sub-array for suppressing antenna element resonance at the first frequency, thereby configuring the array to provide a beamformed wireless communication signal;
• or
• a beamsteering module adapted to set the resonant impedance value for the impedance tuning elements of the first sub-array and set the non-resonant impedance value for the impedance tuning elements of the second sub-array for steering the beamformed wireless communication signal.
