SkyCross has been working closely with Verizon Wireless to develop and test the T-Series and iMAT designs. In fact, SkyCross demoed some of its new designs at the 2011 International CES earlier in January. The T-Series antennas are incorporated in new tablets from Acer and in Cisco’s new Cius business tablet. An iMAT with MIMO was also presented in a product from Ionics EMS, which makes a home-automation gateway that uses the Verizon 4G LTE network to monitor and control home functions remotely.

Meanwhile, SkyCross is working on the TV antenna problem for laptops, tablets, and other devices. Small antennas to receive the lower over-the-air VHF channels (2-7) present a unique challenge to antenna makers. With some unique designs and a way to make the antenna tunable, SkyCross may just solve the problem. At least we won’t have to use rabbit ears.

If you’re looking for a standard building-block high-performance antenna solution in a tablet form factor, get in touch with SkyCross. Keep in mind that SkyCross has regional design centers in China and Korea to optimize performance for unique tablet industrial designs and get them to market quickly.
