More Information
Summary:An access point includes a data encoder, a first transmit/receive chain coupled to the data encoder, the first transmit/receive chain including a first radio and a first antenna that are configured to transmit RF signals in a first frequency band, a second transmit/receive chain coupled to the data encoder, the second transmit/receive chain including a second radio and a second antenna that are configured to transmit RF signals in the first frequency band, and a switchable ground element that comprises a conductive member that is connected to a ground reference via a switch. The first antenna is separated from the second antenna by a distance that is less than one wavelength of a center frequency of the first operational frequency band.
