We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Antenna systems",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Reference designs cover Long Term Evolution from
picoChip Designs, which we summarised at the time by saying "LTE reference designs cover the full range of eNode Bs from femtocells to multisector macrocells on the same common hardware platforms as picoChip's WiMAX products".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Miniature antennas are made for telematics from
Alpha Micro Components: "Full line of miniature antenna systems for the telematics market includes tri-, quad- and penta-band cellular products compatible with the latest generation of GSM and 3G modules".
In December 2006, we covered the news from Rohde and Schwarz
concerning its ZVA-K7
- take a look at Network analyser takes on pulsed measurements
which says: "Rohde and Schwarz has expanded its high-end R and S ZVA network analyser with a software option for pulsed measurements".
Take a look also at the news release from Rogers Corp, RO4230 high frequency circuit material,
as well as Antenna systems and short-range wireless 2006 from Lyrtech,
and EM simulator handles more complex structures from CST - Computer Simulation Technology.
