1. A dual-band active steering antenna assembly comprising:

  • a ground plane;

    an antenna radiating element forming an antenna volume between the antenna radiating element and the ground plane;

    a first parasitic element positioned outside the antenna volume of the antenna radiating element and configured to tune the antenna radiating element in a first Wi-Fi frequency band; and

    a second parasitic element positioned outside the antenna volume of the antenna radiating element and configured to tune the antenna radiating element in a second Wi-Fi frequency band;

    an active component configured to vary a current flow through at least one of the first parasitic element or the second parasitic element.
