Abstract: An antenna system includes a first metal housing portion having a metal housing connecting edge, the first metal housing portion having a triangular side profile, and a second non-metal housing portion having a non-metal housing connecting edge, the non-metal housing connecting edge being complimentary to the metal housing connecting edge of the first metal housing, the second non-metal housing portion having a triangular side profile. A first and second dipole antenna are printed on a circuit board positioned in the non-metal housing portion. The first and second dipole antennas are configured such that the direction of the first and second dipole currents are approximately normal to a plane defined by the metal housing connecting edge.
