Abstract
An antenna system comprising a plurality of loop antenna sets with each of the plurality of loop antenna sets disposed in one of a plurality of different parallel planes with each of the planes being spaced apart from another adjacent plane and wherein loop antenna set in the plurality of loop antenna sets comprises a plurality of loop antennas and wherein the plurality of loop antennas are configured such that the near field inductive coupling between the plurality of loop antenna sets is zero. The absence of inductive coupling between the loop elements provides a frequency-independent means for multiplexing signals for transmission and reception by the multiple loop antenna system.
