An interface module for a communication device includes a first switch, for forming a first connection between a first feeding point of an antenna of the communication device and one of a first matching component and a first grounding component; a second switch, for forming a second connection between a second feeding point of the antenna and one of a second matching component and a second grounding component; and a third switch, for forming a third connection between a transceiver and one of the first matching component and the first grounding component.

A low profile patch antenna surface mounted to a metal base produces superior gain in horizontal directions. A dielectric spacer and matching circuit are sandwiched between a thin circular patch radiator and an opposite ground plate, with the matching circuit between the spacer and ground plate and electrically coupled to the ground plate and radiator. The matching circuit increases antenna efficiency and bandwidth by attaining the best possible energy transfer between a transceiver and the antenna, taking into account impedance mismatch, component losses, and losses in the antenna structure.

An electronic device may include wireless circuitry with antennas. An antenna resonating element arm for an antenna may be formed from conductive housing structures running along the edges of the device. The antenna may have first and second antenna feeds and multiple adjustable components that bridge a slot between the antenna resonating element and an antenna ground. Control circuitry may control the adjustable components and selectively activate one of the first and second feeds at a given time to place the antenna in first, second, or third operating modes. The control circuitry may determine which operating mode to use based on information indicative of the operating environment of the device. By switching between the operating modes, the control circuitry may shift current hot spots across the length of the resonating element arm to ensure satisfactory performance of the antenna in a variety of operating conditions.
