LED LAMPS WITH ENHANCED WIRELESS COMMUNICATION

摘要

An LED lighting device includes a light emitting assembly including at least one LED and a wireless network interface connecting the LED lighting device to a network. The wireless network interface includes a RF transceiver. An antenna is in electrical communication with the RF transceiver. A thermally conductive housing receives the light emitting assembly, the thermally conductive housing in thermal communication with the at least one LED. In one aspect the thermally conductive housing is formed of a thermally conductive and electrically nonconductive material. In another aspect, the thermally conductive housing includes a first portion attached to a second portion, wherein the first portion is formed of a first, thermally conductive material and defines an interior cavity receiving the wireless network interface. The second portion is formed of a second, electrically nonconductive material and defines an aperture allowing optical output of the at least one LED to pass therethrough.
