ANTI-JAMMING AND REDUCED INTERFERENCE GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM RECEIVER METHODS AND DEVICES
20230208036 · 2023-06-29 ·

Global navigation satellite system (GNSS) radio frequency signals broadcast from geo-stationary satellites 20,000 km above the earth when received by GNSS receivers are fundamentally weak. Accordingly, these GNSS receivers are vulnerable to accidental and deliberate interference from a range of synthetic sources as well as natural sources. Existing anti-jamming technologies such as controlled reception pattern antennas, adaptive antennas, null-steering antennas, and beamforming antennas etc. are expensive and incompatible with many lower cost and footprint limited applications. However, in many applications the GNSS antenna is mounted upon a fixed or mobile element such that accidental and intentional jammers tend to be in the plane of the antenna or below it. Accordingly, there are presented designs and techniques to improve the anti-jamming or interference performance of GNSS receivers by further reducing the responsivity of the GNSS receiver to signals in-plane or below the plane of the antenna.

FREQUENCY RECONFIGURABLE ANTENNA DECOUPLING FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATION

Cellular antennas having a mutual coupling can be isolated by the generation of an additional current path along a ground plane. A first antenna element can resonate at a resonance that interferes with and is mutually coupled to a second antenna element operating in a same frequency range, such as a low band frequency range. One or more parasitic scattering elements can generate the additional current path between the two antennas and isolate the two antennas from one another. A parasitic scattering element can comprise two capacitors that alter a radiation pattern of one of the antennas and decrease a correlation between both antennas.
