Abstract
The Present Invention Provides an Antenna Network for Passively or Actively enhancing signal transmission or reception of one or more portable transceiver devices. The antenna network includes one or more antennas, each having a coupling portion and a radiating portion, the coupling portion being distributed across a coupling area and the radiating portion being located away from the coupling area, whereby signal transmission or reception of the one or more portable transceiver devices can occur through the radiating portion when the one or more portable transceiver devices are located within the coupling area.
Claims39
An antenna network for enhancing signal transmission or reception of one or more portable transceiver devices comprising:
- one or more antennas, each antenna comprising:
- a coupling portion disposed across a coupling area between a signal shield of a wireless charging device and a wireless charging surface, the coupling portion facilitating communication signal reception and transmission to and from a portable transceiver device;
- and
- at least one radiating portion connected to the coupling portion, the radiating portion being located outside an area defined by a perimeter of the signal shield, whereby signal transmission or reception of the one or more portable transceiver devices occurs through the radiating portion when the one or more portable transceiver devices are located within the coupling area.
A wireless charging device comprising:
- a signal shield having a perimeter;
- a wireless charging surface used to wirelessly charge a portable transceiver device and disposed proximate to the signal shield;
- an antenna network including one or more antennas, each having at least one antenna comprising:
- a coupling portion disposed across a coupling area between the signal shield and the wireless charging surface, the coupling portion facilitating communication signal reception and transmission to and from the portable transceiver device;
- and
- at least one radiating portion connected to the coupling portion, the radiating portion being located outside an area defined by the perimeter of the signal shield, whereby signal transmission or reception of the one or more portable transceiver devices occurs through the radiating portion when the one or more portable transceiver devices are located within the coupling area.
