The present application provides a parasitic patch antenna for radiating or receiving a wireless signal. The parasitic patch antenna includes an antenna module, which has one or more exciter patches, where each exciter patch is respectively coupled to a signal port of one of a transmitter, a receiver, or a transceiver, and has a ground structure. The parasitic patch antenna further includes a separate mechanical part independent of the antenna module. The separate mechanical part includes one or more parasitic patches organized and arranged separate from, and proximate to the one or more exciter patches of the antenna module.

This invention relates to the use of an attachable antenna field director which passively amplifies the signals that are transmitted and received from a drone controller antenna and is comprised of a plurality of director elements embedded in a substantially planar foam body that is pointed in the direction of the drone for maximum amplification.

A wireless signal repeater includes an interior antenna located in an interior a cooking appliance, and an exterior antenna located outside the cooking appliance. A coupling portion connects the interior antenna to the exterior antenna through a hole in a wall of the cooking appliance for wirelessly retransmitting wireless signals received by the wireless signal repeater. According to another aspect, a cooking appliance includes a cooking chamber for cooking food, and an interior antenna located inside the cooking chamber. An exterior antenna is located on an exterior of the cooking appliance, and a coupling portion is configured to connect the interior antenna with the exterior antenna. According to another aspect, an aperture is located in a cooking chamber and a reflector is mounted over the aperture on an exterior of the cooking appliance and is configured to narrow a radiation pattern for wireless signals transmitted through the aperture.

Antenna arrays, antenna elements for said arrays, and methods of fabricating and using the same are provided. Antenna arrays can be operated at multiple frequencies, such as at two different frequencies for Radio Detection And Ranging (RADAR) communication and for imaging applications. Each antenna element can include a driven patch that is excited directly and a parasitic patch that is excited by the driven patch.

Apparatus and methods for reconfigurable antenna systems are provided herein. In certain configurations, an antenna system includes an antenna element, a tuning conductor adjacent to and spaced apart from the antenna element, and a switch electrically connected between the tuning conductor and a reference voltage, such as ground. The tuning conductor is operable to load the antenna element, and the switch selectively connects the tuning conductor to the reference voltage to provide tuning to the antenna element.

An antenna includes a dielectric substrate, a ground element, a feed element, a microstrip line, and a feed point. The ground element is disposed on a first surface of the dielectric substrate. The ground element includes a slit. The feed element is disposed on a second surface of the dielectric substrate. The microstrip line extends from the feed element toward the slit. The feed point is disposed on the second surface of the dielectric substrate, and connected to the feed element via the microstrip line. The feed point is positioned between the feed element and the slit, and disposed at an end of the microstrip line.

An antenna includes feed pads; a radiating portion disposed on one side of the feed pads and spaced apart from the feed pads, the radiating portion being constituted by a single conductor plate; and a ground part disposed on an opposite side of the feed pads from the radiating portion; wherein each of the feed pads has a polygonal shape.

The invention provides an antenna-in-package module and an electronic device. The antenna-in-package module comprises a substrate, an antenna module and an integrated circuit chip arranged on opposite two sides of the substrate and a circuit arranged in the substrate to connect the antenna module and the integrated circuit chip. The antenna module comprises a plurality of antenna units connected to the circuit and a plurality of guiding directors arranged separated from each antenna unit, separately. The antenna-in-package module provided by the invention can increase spatial coverage of the antenna-in-package module.

There are provided heating chamber, and reflection angle control device provided on upper wall configuring at least part of walls of heating chamber and configured to control a reflection angle of a microwave to control standing wave distribution in heating chamber. Reflection angle control device controls the reflection angle of the microwave when the microwave radiated from microwave radiation device is not directly absorbed into heating target but is reflected by the wall. Standing wave distribution in heating chamber can thus be controlled to be different from ordinary distribution for improvement in local heating performance.
