WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICE INCLUDING ANTENNA MODULES AND OPERATING METHOD OF WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18489360 titled 'WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICE INCLUDING ANTENNA MODULES AND OPERATING METHOD OF WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a wireless communication device that has multiple antenna modules positioned at different locations. The device includes a first radio frequency (RF) integrated circuit and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is designed to select one antenna module from the multiple modules, use the selected module and the first RF integrated circuit for communication, monitor signal quality through at least one of the antenna modules, and control switching from the selected module to another module based on the monitoring result. The switching involves selectively switching the connection of the first RF integrated circuit from the selected module to the other module.

  • The wireless communication device has multiple antenna modules positioned at different locations.
  • It includes a first RF integrated circuit and processing circuitry.
  • The processing circuitry selects one antenna module from the multiple modules.
  • The selected module and the first RF integrated circuit are used for communication.
  • Signal quality is monitored through at least one of the antenna modules.
  • Switching from the selected module to another module is controlled based on the monitoring result.
  • The switching involves selectively switching the connection of the first RF integrated circuit from the selected module to the other module.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Wireless communication devices with improved signal quality and reliability.
  • Mobile devices with enhanced connectivity and coverage.
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices with better communication capabilities.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Signal degradation and loss due to interference or obstacles.
  • Limited coverage and connectivity issues in wireless communication.
  • Inefficient use of antenna modules in a wireless device.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved signal quality and reliability in wireless communication.
  • Enhanced connectivity and coverage for mobile devices.
  • Efficient utilization of multiple antenna modules in a wireless device.


Original Abstract Submitted

A wireless communication device includes a plurality of antenna modules at different positions, a first radio frequency (RF) integrated circuit, and processing circuitry configured to select one antenna module from among the plurality of antenna modules to obtain a selected antenna module, perform communication using the selected antenna module and the first RF integrated circuit, monitor signal quality through at least one of the plurality of antenna modules to obtain a monitoring result, and control switching from the selected antenna module to another antenna module among the plurality of antenna modules based on the monitoring result, the switching including selectively switching a connection of the first RF integrated circuit from the selected antenna module to the other antenna module.
