Abstract:
An apparatus is provided including a first antenna with a top face; a bottom face; and a periphery defined by an upper portion, a lower portion, and a pair of side portions. The first slot comprises a body, a first arm, and a second arm that divides the first antenna into a first portion, a second portion, a third portion, and a fourth portion. The first portion is larger than the third portion, and the third portion is larger than the second portion and the fourth portion. Further, the body of the first slot extends between the side portions of the periphery. Still yet, the first arm and the second arm extend between the body and one of the upper portion and the lower portion of the periphery. A dielectric is positioned in the first slot for providing continuous insulation between the first portion, the second portion, the third portion, and the fourth portion.
Abstract:
A mobile device including a housing having a distal end, and electronics disposed in the housing configured to operate the mobile device. A connector is coupled to the electronics, and a Pi-shaped antenna has a coupling coupled to the connector to create a resonance using the connector. The Pi-shaped antenna and the connector are configured to wirelessly send and receive the wireless signals. An impedance matching network matches the impedance of the electronics to the Pi-shaped antenna. In some embodiments, the impedance matching network is switchable by the electronics and is configured to match an impedance of the electronics to the Pi-shaped antenna in at least two states, over multiple RF bands.
Abstract:
An embodiment eyeglass display includes a processor disposed in a system enclosure and a display system connected to the processor and configured to display data to a user via a display screen in an eye region. A first antenna is disposed in the system enclosure and operably connected to the processor. The processor is configured to cause the first antenna to transmit on a first radio frequency (RF) band. A second antenna is disposed outside the system enclosure and operably connected to the processor, and the processor is configured to cause the second antenna to transmit on a second RF band. The second antenna extends laterally along a first edge of the at least one eye region.
Abstract:
An embodiment wireless communication device includes a circuit board and a cover having a back surface covering a portion of a first surface of the circuit board and an opening in the back surface. A top antenna is disposed within the cover and is electrically connected to the circuit board at a first feed point on a first edge of the circuit board. A secondary antenna disposed within the cover has a first antenna portion connected to the circuit board at a second feed point, and a second antenna portion of the second antenna extends laterally from a second edge of the circuit board over the first surface of the circuit board and between the back surface of the cover and the first surface of the circuit board such that at least a portion of the second antenna portion is exposed through the opening in the back surface.
Abstract:
An apparatus and associated method are provided involving a housing having a periphery configured to operate as a second antenna, a third antenna, and a fourth antenna. The periphery includes a top wall having a first slot formed therein, a first side wall having a second slot formed therein, and a second side wall having a third slot formed therein. The top wall is arranged between the first side wall and the second side wall, and a top portion of the periphery is defined between the second slot and the third slot. The top portion is divided into a first top side portion and a second top side portion via the first slot. Further, the first top side portion operates as the second antenna, and the second top side portion operates as both the third antenna and the fourth antenna.
