Abstract:
An antenna section includes a bracket antenna configured to send and receive RF communications of a mobile communication device having a back side that is enclosed by a back cover, wherein the bracket antenna forms a structural portion of the back cover of the mobile communication device that encloses at least one portion of an edge of the mobile communication device and at least one portion of the back side. A booster plate is coupled to the mobile communication device and is configured to electromagnetically interact with the bracket antenna to modify the antenna beam pattern.
