Multi-band antenna arrays and methods of use are provided herein. An example device includes vertical surfaces arranged into a tubular configuration, where each of the vertical surfaces comprising antenna arrays is aligned along the vertical surfaces. The antenna elements are arrayed through a feed network in such a way that antenna gain is increased while elevation beam-width is reduced. The device also includes two or more radios connected to the antenna arrays on the vertical surfaces via the feed network.

A multi-feed antenna is described where the antenna is optimized for the natural impedance state per frequency band. Multiple feed points are accessed as a function of frequency and use case to provide a feed port that is operating at the natural impedance state for the antenna structure. Impedance transforming circuits can be applied to the feed point to form impedance matching circuits to transform the antenna impedance to a characteristic impedance of the system or circuit interfacing with the antenna. The impedance transforming circuits can be eliminated and the RF circuitry interfacing with the antenna can be configured to operate at the natural frequency of the antenna.
