Abstract

A circuit antenna includes an active device, and first and second antennas. The first antenna is connected to an input port of the active device. The first antenna has a first radiation field at an operating frequency of the circuit antenna. The second antenna is connected to an output port of the active device. The second antenna has a second radiation field at the operating frequency. The active device is positioned within the first and second radiation fields to experience an input load matching impedance at the input port and an output load matching impedance at the output port, due to the first and second radiation fields.
