Abstract
An antenna system is disclosed. A wireless device includes two antennas. The first antenna is optimized at a first frequency band. The second antenna is optimized at a second frequency band. The signals received from respective optimized frequency bands are used as primary received signals. The signals having frequencies beyond respective optimized frequency bands are used as diversity signals. Likewise, the signals transmitted from a transceiver to base stations are sent to respective antennas based upon their frequency bands. By employing this optimized antenna configuration, the wireless device can provide high quality wireless signals for both frequency bands.
