Title:
動的に割り当てられる広帯域マルチタップアンテナ
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6839596
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A dynamically allocated broadband multi-tap antenna 100 comprises a plurality of subwavelength conductors 102 used for transmitting and/or receiving radio frequency (RF) signals; a plurality of antenna taps 104, each of which is connected to one or more of the conductors 102; a plurality of RF switches 106, each of which is connected to one of the antenna taps 104; and a plurality of combiners 110 (which also function as splitters), each of which is connected to one or more of the RF switches 106. The RF switches 106 are controlled to dynamically allocate and interconnect the antenna taps 104 with a selected combiner 110, to communicate the RF signals between the conductors 102 connected to the antenna taps and the selected combiner 110. The RF signals received by the conductors 102 are combined into an output signal at the selected combiner 110, while an input signal at the selected combiner 110 is split for transmission as the RF signals by the conductors 102.
