Electronic device

An electronic device, comprising:

• a conductive housing sidewall defining an internal volume;
• a printed circuit board (PCB) disposed in the internal volume;
• an electrical connector contacting the PCB;
• and
• an elongate conductive member disposed between the housing sidewall and the electrical connector, the elongate conductive member contacting the electrical connector and welded to housing sidewall;
• wherein:
• the elongate conductive member defines a plurality of contact points;
• each contact point of the plurality of contact points is decoupled and rotated from the elongate body and welded to the housing.

A wearable electronic device, comprising:

• a housing sidewall including a lower portion and an electrically conductive upper portion separated from the lower portion by a non-conductive material, the housing sidewall defining an opening;
• a display component disposed in the opening;
• an antenna ground contact;
• a display printed circuit board (display PCB) electrically coupled to the antenna ground contact;
• a wave ring disposed between the electrically conductive upper portion and the display component, the wave ring welded to the electrically conductive upper portion at a plurality of discrete contact points disposed along a length of the wave ring;
• a connector forming an electrical pathway between the wave ring and the antenna ground contact;
• a sensor printed circuit board (sensor PCB) disposed within the housing sidewall;
• and
• a monopole antenna disposed on the sensor PCB that unifies the electrically conductive upper portion with the sensor PCB.
