Abstract
Methods and apparatus for antennas, wireless cells and networks are described. Antennas use a shield to provide a shape of coverage, area of coverage, and channel assignment pattern configured for high throughput wireless cells and networks. Diplexers are used to form wireless cells configured for high throughput wireless cells and networks.

15. An apparatus that facilitates wireless communication, comprising:
-
a first shield having at least two omni-directional antennas and at least two openings; a second shield having at least two omni-directional antennas and at least two openings, wherein; a coverage lobe extends from each antenna through each of the at least two openings of the respective first shield and second shield; the first shield is stacked and rotated relative to the second shield in such a way that at least one coverage lobe from the first shield overlaps at least one coverage lobe from the second shield, thereby forming at least one virtual lobe. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)
