SIDE FACE ANTENNA FOR A COMPUTING DEVICE CASE

摘要

An antenna assembly includes a portion of the metal computing device case as a primary resonating structure. The metal computing device case includes a back face and four side faces bounding at least a portion of the back face. The metal computing device case further includes a resonating structure having an aperture (212) formed in the back face from which a notch (202) extends from the aperture cutting through at least one side face of the metal computing device case. A conductive feed structure (204) is connected to a radio (206). The conductive feed structure is connected to or positioned proximal to the resonating structure of the metal computing device case and is configured to excite the resonating structure at one or more resonance frequencies.
