    摘要: According to an aspect, a display device includes a display module including a display panel and a conductive layer, and an enclosure configured to surround the display module, where the enclosure includes a conductive portion. The display device includes an antenna having a structure formed by an air gap disposed between the conductive layer and the conductive portion of the enclosure. The antenna includes an antenna feed located within the air gap. The antenna feed is coupled to the conductive portion of the enclosure and to the conductive layer such that at least a portion of the display module is configured as a radiating element for wireless communication.

    摘要: An antenna includes a planar dielectric substrate having opposing first and second surfaces, a ground plane disposed at the first surface, the ground plane composed of conductive material, a radiating plane disposed at the second surface and composed of conductive material. The radiating plane implements a plurality of unit cells, with each unit cell having a corresponding section of the conductive material of the radiating plane that is formed in a specified shape, the specified shape including a first portion forming a load inductor and second portion forming a radiating patch electrically coupled to the load inductor. Each unit cell further includes at least one via electrically coupling the load inductor to the ground plane.

    摘要: The present disclosure describes aspects of a conductive receptacle collar for desense mitigation. In aspects, an apparatus comprises a printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) that includes an integrated circuit with signal lines for a wired data interface. The apparatus also includes a coupling component with a receptacle for the wired data interface and an enclosure in which the PCBA is mounted. The enclosure has an opening through which the receptacle for the wired data interface is exposed. A conductive collar is disposed between an exterior surface of the receptacle and an interior surface of this opening. The conductive collar contacts the receptacle's exterior surface and the interior surface of the opening to electrically couple these respective surfaces. By so doing, the conductive collar improves grounding of the receptacle to the enclosure, which may mitigate the desense of the apparatus's wireless receivers caused by operation of the wired data interface.

    摘要: An electrical connector can include a tongue, a shell, multiple pins, and a shield. The shell can enclose the tongue, and can define an aperture for receiving a plug. The multiple pins can extend along the tongue. The multiple pins can extend beyond the shell a first distance from a back portion of the shell. The back portion of the shell can be opposite from the aperture. The shield can extend from a back portion of the shell. The shield can include a first arm extending away from the back portion of the shell a second distance and a second arm extending from the first arm. The second distance can be greater than the first distance.
