    摘要: The disclosed system may include a housing that includes a non-conducting substrate and a conductive enclosure that at least partially surrounds the non-conducting substrate. The system may also include an antenna disposed on the non-conducting substrate of the housing. Still further, the system may include a direct electrical connection between the antenna and a first portion of the conductive enclosure. Moreover, the system may include an antenna feed electrically connected to a separate conductive portion on the non-conducting substrate. The separate portion of the non-conducting substrate may be electrically connected to a second portion of the conductive enclosure. Various other apparatuses, wearable electronic devices, and methods of manufacturing are also disclosed.

    摘要: The disclosed system may include an enclosure that is configured to house internal electrical components disposed on a printed circuit board (PCB). The system may also include a first antenna feed that is electrically connected to the PCB, to the enclosure, and to a radiating coupling arm configured for wireless communication in a first wireless communication band. The system may further include a second antenna feed that is electrically connected to the PCB and to an antenna configured for wireless communication in a second, different wireless communication band. The system may also include a first grounding leg that forms an electrical ground between the PCB and the enclosure, and a second, switchable grounding leg positioned away from the first grounding leg. This switchable grounding leg may provide a controllable electrical ground between the PCB and the enclosure. Various other methods and apparatuses are also disclosed.

    摘要: The disclosed system may include a printed circuit board (PCB) within an enclosure. The system may further include a first antenna affixed to an upper layer of the enclosure above the PCB as well as a second antenna affixed to a lower layer of the enclosure below the PCB. The system may also include a decoupling switch that links the first antenna to the second antenna through the PCB. The decoupling switch may selectively couple the first and second antennas when transmitting or receiving signals above a specified minimum frequency and may decouple the first and second antennas when transmitting or receiving signals below a specified maximum frequency. Various other apparatuses, mobile electronic devices, and methods of manufacturing are also disclosed.
