An antenna includes a first radiating element configured to emit first electromagnetic radiation in response to at least one feed signal having a frequency within a first radio frequency (RF) band. A director is provided, which is positioned forwardly of the first radiating element, and in a path of the first electromagnetic radiation. The director includes first and second passive impedance elements that provide respective first and second frequency-dependent reactances to first currents induced within the director in response to the first electromagnetic radiation. The first and second passive impedance elements may include a first inductor and a first capacitor, which are electrically coupled in series. The director may also be configured to include a plurality of passive impedance elements that are connected within an impedance loop containing a second LC circuit in series with a first LC circuit.

A communication device, method and computer program product enable multiple transceiver communication by antennas within a configurable housing assembly. First, second, and third antennas are separate in an open position and are proximate and aligned in a closed position. A first radio frequency (RF) transceiver communicates via the first antenna and a second RF transceiver that communicates via one of the second and third antennas via the first antenna switch. A controller is communicatively coupled to a first antenna switch and a housing sensor. In response to determining that the housing assembly is in at least partially open position, the controller configures the first antenna switch to connect a second RF transceiver to a second antenna. In response to determining that the housing assembly is in the closed position, the controller configures the first antenna switch to connect the second RF transceiver to the third antenna.

Embodiments of a circuit, system, and method are disclosed. A beam switch to a beam with a beam configuration from another beam with another beam configuration is detected. In response to the detected beam switch: a tuner setting is determined for an antenna tuner of an antenna element in an antenna array which transmits the first beam with the first beam configuration based on the first beam configuration, the tuner setting associated with the first beam configuration; and an indication of the tuner setting is provided to an impedance matching system of the antenna tuner to compensate for a mismatch between an impedance of the antenna element and impedance of one or more other radio frequency (RF) components of an RF front-end having the antenna element and antenna tuner.

Single band and multiband wireless antennas are an important element of wireless systems. Competing tradeoffs of overall footprint, performance aspects such as impedance matching and cost require not only consideration but become significant when multiple antenna elements are employed within a single antenna such as to obtain circular polarization transmit and/or receive. Accordingly, it would be beneficial to provide designers of a wide range of electrical devices and systems with compact single or multiple frequency band antennas which, in addition to providing the controlled radiation pattern and circular polarization purity (where required) are impedance matched without substantially increasing the footprint of the antenna and/or the complexity of the microwave/RF circuit interfaced to them, whilst supporting multiple signals to/from multiple antenna elements in antennas employing them. Solutions present achieve this through provisioning one or more capacitive series reactances discretely or in combination with one or more shunt capacitive reactances.
