Abstract
An antenna radiating element is arranged as at least one coil and defines a first feed port and a second feed port at its opposed ends. There is a third feed port disposed along the antenna radiating element substantially at a radio frequency effective symmetry point between the first and the second radio feed ports. The first and second feed ports are for interfacing a first radio (e.g., RFID/NFC radio) to the antenna radiating element, and the third feed port is for interfacing a second radio (e.g., FM-TX) to the antenna radiating element. The antenna radiating element is configured to function simultaneously as a balanced coil antenna with respect to the first radio and as two parallel half-loop antennas with respect to the second radio.
