Method and system for providing an antenna that is optimized for near-field-communication (NFC) and reduces the effect of far-field-communication (FFC)
First Claim
1. A system, comprising:
- one or more circuits for use in a first broadband device that is operable to communicate signals to a second broadband device at a power level that is below a spurious emissions mask and to transmit the communicated signals over a designated frequency spectrum band, the one or more circuits being operable to;
wirelessly communicate signals from the first broadband device to the second broadband device when a barrier separates the first broadband device from the second broadband device, wherein;
a signal transmission component of the first broadband device and a signal reception component of the second broadband device are jointly configured to nullify or reduce signals in areas other than a region between the components.

Abstract
A communication system may include a first broadband device and a second broadband device. Signals may be wirelessly communicated from the first broadband device to the second broadband device at a power level that is below a spurious emissions mask. The communicated signals may be transmitted over a designated frequency band. A barrier separates the first broadband device from the second broadband device. The first broadband device may be paired with the second broadband device, and the signals may be wirelessly communicated from the first to the second broadband device. The signals may be communicated using signal emitting/receiving components, which may be jointly configured to optimize near-field communication while nullifying or substantially reducing signaling in other ranges, particularly far-field or intermediate-field ranges. The signal emitting/receiving components may comprise dipole or coil antennas, with the desired optimization and nullification being achieved based on controlling of electromagnetic fields.
