A terminal is provided for selectively communicating in at least two frequency bands. The terminal includes an antenna transducer including a first port and a second port, where the antenna transducer is capable of selectively transducing first radio signals (e. g. , low power radio frequency (LPRF) signals) to and/or from the first port, and/or second radio signals (e. g. , global positioning system (GPS) signals) to and/or from the second port. In this regard, the antenna transducer is capable of transducing first radio signals such that an impedance at the second port approaches a short circuit or an open circuit, and capable of transducing second radio signals such that an impedance at the first port approaches an open circuit. An associated communication assembly and method for selectively communicating in at least two frequency bands are also provided.

An improved wireless radio-frequency (RF) transmission system is disclosed. The wireless RF transmission system comprises: 1) a radio frequency (RF) transceiver configured to transmit and receive radio-frequency signals; ii) an electrically small antenna having a complex impedance comprising a real part and an imaginary part; and iii) a tunable negative impedance converter (NIC) circuit coupling the electrically small antenna to the RF transceiver. The tunable NIC circuit is configured to perform antenna matching by reducing the imaginary part of the complex impedance of the electrically small antenna. The tunable NIC circuit is tuned by adjusting a transconductance value associated with the tunable NIC circuit.

An apparatus includes a plurality of layers of conductive elements and a substrate layer. A first of the layers of conductive elements has a first portion that includes conductive elements having a first structure different from a second structure of conductive elements in a second portion of the first layer. The first layer can be in contact with one side of the substrate layer. Conductive elements in a second of the layers of conductive elements can be in contact with another side of the substrate layer. The lens may include a first type of unit cell including at least one conductive element having the first structure and conductive elements having the second structure positioned on different sides of the substrate layer.

In a Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) system, an apparatus and method includes a Tightly Coupled Array antennas (TCA) or Current Sheet Antennas (CSA). Far-field radiation patterns from any current sheet antenna are formed from the combination of the fields generated by a set of currents on the CSA of array port orthogonal modes, such as the Characteristic Modes (CM). The CM currents are generated by excitation of the CSA element ports with corresponding orthogonal voltages or currents (eigenvectors). Since the radiation patterns of the characteristic modes are orthogonal and uncorrelated, multiple signals may be propagated along the radiation patterns of the characteristic modes, each signal using a different characteristic mode or a different set of characteristic modes. Therefore, a CSA antenna utilizing array port orthogonal modes such as array port characteristic modes can support MIMO communications despite the strong mutual coupling among the antenna elements.
