摘要:
Embodiments of an optically transparent antenna are generally described herein. In some embodiments, the optically transparent antenna may comprise a plurality of electrically-isolated conductive patches arranged on a non-conductive surface. A combination of a size of the conductive patches and a spacing between the conductive patches is less than a human visual acuity for a predetermined viewing distance so that the patches are not be visible or perceptible to a human. In some embodiments, optically transparent antenna may serve as one or more antennas on a mobile platform.

A plug-and-play antenna may be used with many different types of wireless communication devices. An antenna may be coupled to an impedance tuning component and a waveform generator. A calibration control module receives radio status information, controls the waveform generator to vary a response of the antenna, and tunes the impedance tuning component to match impedances between a radio and the antenna.

A first apparatus includes a semiconductor device and a heatsink thermally coupled to the semiconductor device. The heatsink is located and formed to screen the device from external electromagnetic radiation or to contain radiation produced by the device. A second apparatus includes a semiconductor device, a heatsink thermally coupled to the semiconductor device, and a grounding structure having a capacitive coupling to the heatsink.

A substrate for reducing electromagnetic emissions is provided. The substrate may include a plurality of ground layers, signal layers and power layers. All of the layers other than the ground layer are provided with a ground ring that may extend around the perimeter of the layer. The ground rings are electrically coupled together by ground stitching or vias that are randomly spaced. The random spacing of the ground stitching is based on the operating frequencies of the integrated circuit devices mounted on the substrate. Additional shielding may be provided by providing a cover assembly made of any conductive material that is coupled to the exposed ground rings on the uppermost and lowermost surfaces of the substrate. The cover assembly is coupled to the exposed ground rings in a randomized pattern. The device provides a virtual electrical ground cage in which the internal signal layers are totally enclosed, thereby reducing electromagnetic emissions.

An antenna module and communication device containing the antenna module are disclosed. The antenna module is disposed in a metal cavity. The antenna module includes a switched beam mm-wave antenna array having radiating elements separated by less than a wavelength of the radiating elements. The array is fed by a single transceiver chain. The array is disposed at the focal length of a low-profile mm-wave lens configured to steer the beam. A sub-10 GHz antenna is disposed closer to the opening of the cavity than the lens. The lens is a Fresnel Zone Plate lens having a focal length of less than about the wavelength of the beam, or a Saucer lens having shells of different refractive indexes and having a profile that is more than 6 times smaller than a Luneburg lens with a same focal length.
