Electronic device capable of eliminating wireless signal interference
View Patent ↗An electronic device eliminating wireless signal interference includes a first radio unit, a second radio unit, and a quadrature coupler. The first radio unit includes a first antenna and a first transceiver. The first transceiver is configured to output first wireless signals via a first port. The second radio unit operates on a same frequency of the first radio unit, and includes a second antenna and a second transceiver. The second transceiver is configured to output second wireless signals via a second port. The quadrature coupler is connected to the first and the second ports, configured to separate the first wireless signals from the second wireless signals, and further to cause a first radiation field pattern of the first wireless signals to be orthogonal with a second radiation field pattern of the second wireless signals.
1. An electronic device capable of eliminating wireless signal interference, comprising:
a first radio unit comprising:
a first antenna; and
a first transceiver configured to output first wireless signals via a first port thereof;
a second radio unit operating on a same frequency of the first radio unit, and comprising;
a second antenna; and
a second transceiver configured to output second wireless signals via a second port thereof; and
an quadrature coupler connected to the first and the second ports, configured to separate the first wireless signals from the second wireless signals, and further to cause a first radiation field pattern of the first wireless signals to be orthogonal with a second radiation field pattern of the second wireless signals; and
a first bidirectional phase-shifter and a second bidirectional phase-shifter, wherein the first bidirectional phase-shifter is connected between the first antenna and the quadrature coupler, the second bidirectional phase-shifter is connected between the second antenna and the quadrature coupler, each of the first and the second bidirectional phase-shifter is configured to adjust radiation directions of the first and the second radiation fields from the quadrature coupler by phase adjustment whilst the phase of the first radiation field keeps orthogonal with that of the second radiation field, to allow the first radiation field pattern to be orthogonal with a radiation field pattern from an external device to the second transceiver, and the second radiation field pattern to be orthogonal with a radiation field pattern from another external device to the first transceiver, when the external device is at any arbitrary location.
2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the first radio unit is a Bluetooth unit, and the second radio unit is a WIFI unit.
3. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the first and the second antennas are array antennas.
4. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the first and the second bidirectional phase-shifters are configured for adjusting the radiation directions of the first and the second radiation fields within a range of 0 degrees to 180 degrees, thereby changing the radiation directions of the first and the second radiation fields 360 degrees.
5. An electronic device capable of eliminating wireless signal interference, comprising:
