Abstract

An antenna module (10) comprising at least two antennas (14, 16, 18) in substantial close proximity and a shield (12) 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 .
