An antenna module configured for use on an underwater vehicle is disclosed. The antenna module includes an array of spiral antennas fabricated on a multi-layer substrate that provides wide-band RF communication with direction finding (DF) capability. The antenna module can also include other antennas fabricated on the same multi-layer substrate, such as one or more global positioning system (GPS) receivers, an ultra-high frequency/very-high frequency (UHV/VHF) antenna, or one or more iridium antennas. The antenna module may further include a water-proof housing that is coupled to the outside hull of an undersea vehicle via a coupling mechanism. The coupling mechanism allows the antenna module to rotate between a stowed position against the hull and a deployed position that extends the antennas out away from the undersea vehicle. The antenna module is curved or flexible so it can stow against a corresponding curved hull of the undersea vehicle.

A device may include a housing with a plurality of top openings provided in a top portion of the housing and a plurality of bottom openings provided in a bottom portion of the housing. The device may include one or more internal components provided within the housing to provide a wireless service. The device may include a rotation extension connected to the bottom portion of the housing and configured to rotatably attach to a bracket that mounts the device to an object. The device may include a connector connected to the rotation extension and configured to receive a cable that provides communication signals to and from the device.

The present disclosure describes a telecommunications equipment mount. The telecommunications equipment mount includes a stabilization frame having a plurality of lower rails, a plurality of vertical rails, and a plurality of upper rails, the lower, vertical, and upper rails forming a top, a bottom, and at least sides of the stabilization frame to define an open interior cavity; at least one mounting member extending outwardly from, and perpendicular to, one of the sides of the stabilization frame a distance; at least one brace member coupled to the stabilization frame and configured to support the at least one mounting member; and at least one mounting pipe secured to the at least one mounting member. The stabilization frame is configured to ballast the mount on a mounting structure when telecommunications equipment is secured to the at least one mounting pipe. Telecommunications equipment mount assemblies are also described herein.

The present disclosure is directed to mounts for antennas and radio equipment, and more particularly to mounts for antennas on and radio equipment on the top of a building or commercial structure. One aspect of the present disclosure is directed to a sector frame. The sector frame may have a plurality of structural members, including antenna pipes for the mounting of electronic equipment, and a face pipe along which the antenna pipes are disposed. In some embodiments, the antenna pipes and the face pipe may form an antenna pipe array which is rotatable about three perpendicular axes. Another aspect of the present disclosure is directed to a method for adapting a sector frame to a substrate. The method includes the step of attaching an extension to a base of the sector frame, wherein a portion of the base of the sector frame is in contact with the substrate, and wherein a portion of the extension is in contact with the substrate.

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a support member, a front plate disposed on a front surface of the support member, a back plate disposed on a back surface of the support member, a non-conductive structure interposed between the back plate and an edge of the support member and fixed to the support member, and an antenna structure interposed between the back plate and an edge of the support member. At least a portion of the antenna structure may be disposed to face the non-conductive structure. In a region of the non-conductive structure, which faces the antenna structure, a separated distance from the antenna structure varies depending on a distance from a bottom surface of the support member to which the non-conductive structure is fixed.

The present invention provides target devices such as filter units with a plurality of external projection members that project outwardly from the target device and cooperate with apertures in a mounting bracket whereby the target device can be slidably moved from a first position to a second position provided by a lobe of the apertures to couple the target device to a respective support structure using a respective mounting bracket. The mounting bracket can be provided as a plurality of mounting brackets, including a first one attached to the support structure and a first side of a first target device and a second one attached to a second side of the first target device and to a first side of a second target device thereby allowing the first and second target devices to be stacked together to a common support structure.

An oscillator antenna unit and an antenna are disclosed. The oscillator antenna comprises a plurality of oscillator arms and a guiding sheet. The plurality of oscillator arms extend outwards along a middle axle of the oscillator antenna unit and are arranged at an interval from one another. Extension directions of the oscillator arms form a first plane, and the guiding sheet parallel to the first plane is arranged above the oscillator arms and has a predetermined interval therewith. The antenna comprises at least two oscillator antenna units arranged in an array. Therefore, the technical solution of the embodiment of the present disclosure may improve the isolation and achieve a better decoupling effect.
