PERFORMANCE ENHANCING ELECTRONIC STEERABLE CASE ANTENNA EMPLOYING DIRECT OR WIRELESS COUPLING

摘要

A auxiliary antenna system is provided for a portable electronic device such as a smartphone or cellular phone or pad computer. The system positions one or a plurality of auxiliary antennas in or on walls of a protective case surrounding the electronic device. An internal antenna on the electronic device is communicated an RF signal of increased strengths and bandwidth from an auxiliary antenna coupled thereto. Additional auxiliary antennas may be positioned on the case to increase both signal and bandwidth.

主权项

1. An auxiliary antenna for connection to a portable electronic device such as a smartphone, pad computer, or other portable electronic device, comprising:
an case, said case having an interior cavity in operative engagement with an exterior of an electronic device capable of electronic wireless communication; said case having a front wall adapted for positioning a video screen of said electronic device therein; said case having a rear wall on an opposite side of said cavity from said front wall; a first auxiliary antenna, in an attachment with said rear wall at a mounted position; said mounted position on said rear wall, calculated to place said auxiliary antenna in an RF communication with an internal antenna of said electronic device; and said RF communication from said first auxiliary antenna, providing an RF signal of increased strength to said internal antenna and thereby to said electronic device.
