Abstract
An apparatus includes a display and a transceiver. The display has a lateral surface. The lateral surface has disposed thereon a line comprising a thin-film conductive material. The line is patterned to form one or more loops around the display. The transceiver is electrically connected to the line. The line forms a radiating structure during a radio frequency (RF) operation.
