ANTENNA SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DEFINING A DETECTION ZONE

摘要

The present disclosure provides a modularized system of antennas that allows for control of the generated field(s) to maintain a consistent boundary or detection zone, decrease power requirements, and provides for the safety of the individuals that may be within or pass through the detection zone. In particular, the use of two or more antennas to define the zone can minimize the amount of power necessary to drive the system and avoid or capitalize on the field modifying effects of objects in the area of interest. The antenna modules of the present disclosure may be attached to any object of interest in a hospital (or any other facility) and may be configured to define a precise detection zone around that object.
