SkyCross Introduces New Quad Band
Antenna For Global Wireless Voice and Data Applications
MELBOURNE, Florida, June 7, 2004 -- Wireless antenna manufacturer
SkyCross today introduced a unique quad band antenna that is designed
for a host of voice and data applications in the global wireless
marketplace. SkyCross' new quad band antenna technology enables
manufacturers to design in a single embedded antenna capable of
handling a wide range of voice and data services - replacing the
need for costlier multiple antennas that require more space and
weight.
The antenna's small footprint -- only 42mm x 12mm by 7mm - makes
it suitable for a wide range of portable wireless services, including
wireless phones, PDAs, GPS devices, laptop computers, and others.
The antenna provides outstanding performance in terms of gain,
efficiency, VSWR and return loss - which are critical factors in
many wireless devices. In addition, because of SkyCross' patented
Meander Line Antenna (MLA) technology, the antenna has flexible
design rules that allow it to be customized to meet the specific
size and performance requirements of almost any device.
"Many wireless devices today perform multiple functions -
such as the emerging class of "world phones" able to
operate over a full range of frequencies and protocols worldwide
- as well as new devices that simultaneously provide voice, data,
and location based services. We developed the SkyCross quad band
antenna to meet this growing worldwide demand. Our high performance,
multi band antenna is tailor-made for these more complicated wireless
devices," said Dr. Chris Morton, CEO of SkyCross. "Our
patented MLA technology enables us to design antennas that can
meet these high demands."
SkyCross is a Florida-based antenna company whose core technology
utilizes patented Meander Line Antenna (MLA) structures that make
it possible to build compact internal antennas for mobile handsets,
PDAs, WiFi, satellite Digital Multi-media Broadcasting (DMB), and
other applications. Because of its groundbreaking work, the company
was recently selected as one of Wireless Future Magazine's "Most
Innovative Companies".
SkyCross antennas enable mobile handset makers to provide high
performance internal antennas with their CDMA mobile handsets,
previously thought to be impossible. By using SkyCross technologies,
handsets become more aesthetically appealing -- since the antenna
size can be reduced in size to 2-3 centimeters - while providing
superior performance. About SkyCross
SkyCross is a leading developer of next-generation
RF technology for mobile and fixed wireless telecommunications,
telematics, satellite, and mobile computing markets. SkyCross'
antenna solutions are based on patented Meander Line Antenna technology
that allows engineers to design high performance, multi-mode, multi-frequency
antennas that can be hidden inside a mobile casing, have a very
low radiation profile, and offer much better gain characteristics
over existing solutions. Typical applications for the antennas
include handsets, laptop computers, PDAs, automobiles, household
electronics and base stations. For details, please visit www.skycross.com.
