ABSTRACT:
An antenna module comprising at least two antennas in substantial close proximity and a shield configured to reduce interference between the antennas and/or to shape the antenna coverage areas is disclosed. A substantially triangular shield with antennas positioned at each of the vertices may shape the antenna coverage areas to form virtual sectors.
