A wireless device includes at least one slim radiating system having a slim radiating structure and a radio-frequency system. The slim radiating structure includes one or more booster bars. The booster bar has slim width and height factors that facilitate its integration within the wireless device and the excitation of a resonant mode in the ground plane layer, and has a location factor that enables it to achieve the most favorable radio-frequency performance for the available space to allocate the booster bar. The at least one slim radiating system may be configured to transmit and receive electromagnetic wave signals in one or more frequency regions of the electromagnetic spectrum.

An antenna apparatus includes an antenna, a first matching circuit and a second matching circuit, which are connected to the antenna, and an antenna switching apparatus, which is connected to the first matching circuit and the second matching circuit. Within the same time, only one of the first matching circuit and the second matching circuit is in operation. Operating frequency-band signals of the first matching circuit and the second matching circuit on the antenna are switched by the antenna switching apparatus, so as to be used at staggered times, thereby ensuring that operating frequency-band signals of the first matching circuit and the second matching circuit can be normally used in different scenarios, and effectively improving a performance of the antenna.

A communication system applies impedance matching to an antenna specific to individual samples of a transmit signal. The system samples a signal and identifies the peak frequency content of each sample. Based on the peak frequency content, the system identifies an impedance match for a given antenna that provides the greatest energy transmission. The sampled portion of the signal is delayed to accommodate processing time to determine the impedance match and control settings. Control settings may be applied via discrete digital circuitry or continuous analog circuitry.

In accordance with an embodiment, an antenna includes at least two radiators. The at least two radiators include a first radiator and a second radiator that are spaced apart in parallel, and a first end of the first radiator is disposed closer to a first end of the second radiator than a second end of the first radiator. Both the first radiator and the second radiator are connected to a feed point.

An electronic device may be provided with a first antenna fed by a first path and a second antenna fed by a second path. A first coupler may be disposed on the first path, a second coupler may be disposed on the second path, and a feedback path may couple the couplers to a receiver. A low-pass filter may be disposed on the second path. The first antenna may transmit signals in a low band. Some of the signals may couple onto the second antenna. The second coupler may pass the coupled signals to the receiver. Control circuitry may generate a scattering parameter value characterizing the coupling of the signals from the first antenna onto the second antenna. The scattering parameter value may be used to determine when to switch the first antenna out of use and the second antenna into use for covering the low band.
