Abstract
An antenna module that includes two directional antennae arranged in a back-to-back manner, and a converter. The converter realizes conversion between an omnidirectional antenna mode and a directional antenna mode by switching on two directional antennae simultaneously or by switching on one of the directional antennas. Alternatively, the antenna module includes a horizontal polarization antenna, a vertical polarization antenna and a converter, where the converter provides the conversion between the horizontal polarization antenna mode and the vertical polarization antenna mode by switching on the horizontal polarization antenna or the vertical polarization antenna.
