Systems and methods establish passive-based proximity regions to determine position of a device and an area. Example embodiments may be utilized in a wireless network where passive-based proximity regions are established for one or more access points in a wireless network. When a wireless device enters or moves through such a passive-based proximity region, one or more resources associated with the wireless network or wireless device may recognize the presence of the passive-based region and utilize this information to determine positioning data for the wireless device.

Method and system of incorporating passive-based proximity data for position determination

A near field apparatus comprises a Radio Frequency (RF) coil including at least one of a shorting bridge from a first point to a second point along an electrical path of the RF coil and/or a discontinuity in the electrical path of the RF coil.

Miniature and multi-band RF coil design

An antenna system comprises a first antenna element mutually coupled with a second antenna element, the mutual coupling between the first and second antenna elements causing a first current in the second antenna element, and a coupling element disposed at least partially between the first and second antenna elements, wherein the coupling element is mutually coupled to each of the first and second antenna elements, and wherein the coupling element is configured to induce a second current in the second antenna element that at least partially cancels the first current.

Systems and methods employing coupling elements to increase antenna isolation

An antenna system comprising a first antenna element, a second antenna element, and a parasitic element, wherein the parasitic element is arranged with regard to the first antenna element and the second antenna element such that a greatest difference in gain between respective antenna patterns of the first and second antenna elements occurs at a null of the pattern of the first antenna element.
