Active Antenna Solutions

Give Your Wireless Connectivity a Boost

Innovative Active Antenna Systems Solve Your Wireless Challenges


What differentiates us is our systems approach to antenna design. We leverage our expertise in patented RF system design, antennas, integrated circuit design and algorithms to pioneer active antenna systems for wireless devices including IoT devices, smartphones, access points, tablets and laptops.

What are Active Antennas?

Active antennas are solutions that combine a passive antenna element, and active components such as RF switches, diodes or transistors, and a driver or software to control the circuitry. There are different types of active antennas, depending on which parameter is actively changing. KYOCERA AVX offers state-of-the-art active antenna solutions to overcome surrounding challenges and enhance wireless connectivity.

Innovative Antenna Technology

Active Steering

Active Steering™ Antenna systems boost wireless connectivity significantly by continually optimizing the antenna radiation pattern.
Typical Application: Video streaming devices

Band Switching

Ideal solution when the environment is reducing the original antenna bandwidth.
Typical Application: Small IoT Devices

P-Sensor Hybrid

Proximity sensor function antenna is a power backing off for Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) requirements.
Typical Application: Laptop Computers

More Range

Beam steering in very small
devices

Enhancing SINR by 2-3dB Across Wireless Applications

KYOCERA AVX Active Steering™ antenna systems portfolio boosts wireless connectivity significantly. The patented technology continually optimizes the antenna’s direction in real-time on a per millisecond basis, creating multiple radiation patterns around the same antenna and then selects the ideal pattern to hit its targeted device with best signal. The result is a major increase in range, reliability and speed between devices living on the fringes of a network or hidden behind walls and hard-to-reach spaces.
