Apparatus including housing incorporating a radiating element of an antenna

A method for wireless communications, comprising:

• electromagnetically coupling a first radiating element to a second radiating element;
• electrically coupling a circuit to the first radiating element;
• situating at least a portion of the circuit within a housing;
• and
• configuring at least a portion of the housing to comprise the second radiating element.

An apparatus for wireless communications, comprising:

• a first means for radiating an electromagnetic signal;
• a second means for radiating the electromagnetic signal;
• a means for processing the electromagnetic signal received from or to be provided to the first radiating means;
• and
• a means for enclosing at least a portion of the processing means, wherein at least a portion of the enclosing means comprises the second radiating means.
