ABSTRACT:
A personal communications apparatus comprises an elongate body202incorporating an antenna diversity arrangement in which first and second antennas (102A,102B) are located at opposite ends of the body.In one embodiment a microphone (114) is located at the tip of one antenna (102A) and a loudspeaker (116) at the tip of the other antenna (102B). The microphone (114) and loudspeaker (116) act as top loads to their respective antennas, thereby enabling the use of shorter antennas. The antennas (102A,102B) may be formed from coaxial cable, enabling them to provide electrical connections between the microphone (114) or loudspeaker (116) and transceiver circuitry in the body of the apparatus. By arranging for the microphone (114) and loudspeaker (116) to have low impedances at radio frequencies, the coaxial cable acts as an inductive stub and enables the antennas (102A,102B) to be further shortened.
