Patent attributes
The present disclosure can provide a wideband antenna with a folded monopole structure that operates at GPS frequencies and high band (HB) frequencies. Accordingly, the wideband antenna can function as an integrated GPS and HB Diversity antenna for a computing device. In some embodiments, due to various constraints, the antenna can be designed to have a curved structure to fit within a corner of the computing device. The folded monopole antenna can comprise two substantially parallel conducting arms, which improves antenna performance. In some embodiments, the present disclosure can provide GPS and high band impedance matching for a signal received from the antenna in order to improve/ensure signal quality. The signal can be decoupled into a GPS signal portion and a high band signal portion for additional processing and/or information retrieval.
