1 New Antenna Technology for Next Generation Wireless Mobile Devices Al Petrick September 1, 2009

2 Company Overview USB dongle Wireless Audio PC Card Personal Media/Game Players Laptop Ultra-mobile PC Our multi-band/mode antennas enable increased functionality – voice, data, video, location, audio – in any wireless device without compromising style. Femtocell Handsets Access point Smartphone Router Networking Computing Personal Navigation Device Home Entertainment Mobile Phones Personal/Home Entertainment Founded in 2000, SkyCross is a global designer and manufacturer of one-stop antenna solutions for a variety of wireless devices Ask us about other devices – our technology is versatile!

3 Wireless Challenges Streaming HDTV content using MIMO technology Entire Home coverage for Voice and Data services Reliable wireless connectivity & consumers trust Seamless roaming between Voice and WiFi / WiMAX carrier services One device that does ALL Consumer Demand

4 PCMCIA Card 54mm Smaller/ sleeker devices across broadening platforms Express34 Card 34mm USB Dongle 20 mm Notebook MID (Mobile Internet Device) Industry Challenges Netbook

5 Page 5 Industry Challenges Notebooks and Netbooks continue to reduce size and weight Support for multiple standards based radio technologies Wi-Fi 802.11n, WiMAX, Mobile Cellular Bluetooth, FM, GPS Placement area of multi-band antennas remains to be a challenge 3 Antenna Configurations #1 Mobile cellular bands #2 Wi-Fi, WiMAX, Bluetooth #3 GPS, FM, other Camera Connectivity 802.11n, WiMAX Bluetooth, FM GPS, other Antenna #2 Antenna #3 Cellular 700MHz – 1.9GHz 3G, LTE Antenna #1 Notebooks Netbooks

6 Example: Notebook Computer Single antenna solution for 2x2 MIMO Two port antennas, each port supports: –WiFi dual band 2.4-2.5 GHz, 5.1- 5.9 GHz –WiMAX dual band 2.3-2.4 GHz, 2.5-2.7 GHz –Available with full 3G data capability 824-960 MHz, 1710- 2170 MHz High isolation 15 dB min across each band Ultra thin < 1 mm This solution has been adopted by a major laptop maker for mass production

7 Conventional configuration is a MESS! Antenna pairs must be separated Antenna pairs can be supported by a single structure WiFi / Bluetooth Voice / Data Mobile video Location Example: Smartphones Configuration is CLEAN & SIMPLE Key Benefits Simpler integration (7 antennas to less than 3) Reduced material and integration cost: 3:1 reduction Improved Performance

8 Conventional handset architecture requires many components Enables A Simplified, Low-cost Architecture Example: Low-Cost Handsets Key Benefits Single small module  simpler integration Reduced material and integration cost (20% RF savings) Conventional antenna Switchplexer Baseband Transceiver Dual-Feed High Isolation Antenna Additional RF Components Baseband Transceiver

9 Antenna Concept – Mobile Internet Device (MID) Platform 1 3 5 6 4 2 Display 4.8 mm 150 mm 120 mm Display 8 mm Six antennas in brow space Antennas 1 & 2: WWAN antennas + GPS (850/900/1800/1900/2100 + 1575 MHz) Antennas 3 & 4: WiFi/WiMAX antennas (2.3 to 2.4, 2.4 to 2.5, 2.5 to 2.7 GHz + 4.9 to 5.9 GHz) Antennas 5 & 6: uwb antennas (3.0 to 6.0 GHz) All are planar antennas, can be made by FPC or sheet metal

10 Summary Consumer demand for new feature rich wireless devices in the Digital Home will continue to grow and require additional antennas SkyCross technology addresses these requirements across ALL wireless device markets in the digital home iMAT technology is essential to 3G and 4G network rollouts

11 Thank You! Design Freedom to create any device with uncompromised performance and style! Al Petrick SkyCross email: al.petrick@skycross.com Phone: +1.321.308.6624
