Abstract
A housing of a mobile device including a frame defining a perimeter of the mobile device, the frame including a first metal material and configured to operate as a first antenna for a first wireless communication, and a cover configured to cover one surface of the mobile device, the cover including a second metal material, and the cover and at least a portion of the frame configured to operate as a second antenna for a second wireless communication may be provided.
Claims19
A housing of a mobile device, comprising:
- a frame defining a perimeter of the mobile device, the frame including a first metal material, and configured to operate as a first antenna for a first wireless communication;
- and
- a cover configured to cover at least one surface of the mobile device, the cover including a second metal material, and the cover and at least a portion of the frame configured to form a signal path such that the cover and the at least the portion of the frame are configured to operate as a second antenna for a second wireless communication.
A housing of a mobile device comprising:
- a frame defining a perimeter of the mobile device, the frame including a first metal material and configured to operate as a first antenna for a first wireless communication, the frame including,
- a metal structure defining the perimeter of the mobile device, and having a slit defined therein at one side of the mobile device,
- an insulator in the slit, and
- a first terminal coupled to the metal structure and being adjacent to the insulator, and
- a cover configured to cover at least one surface of the mobile device, the cover including a second metal material, and the cover and at least a portion of the frame configured to operate as a second antenna for a second wireless communication, the cover including,
- a metal region,
- an insulating region being adjacent to the one side of the mobile device, and
- a second terminal on the metal region, the second terminal being adjacent to the insulating region such that the insulating region is between the first terminal and the second terminal.
A housing of a mobile device, comprising:
- a frame defining a perimeter of the mobile device, the frame including a first metal material and configured to operate as a first antenna for a first wireless communication, the frame including,
- a metal structure defining the perimeter of the mobile device, the metal structure being divided into first through third regions by first and second slits, the first slit between the first region and the second region, and the second slit between the second region and the third region,
- a first inductor at the first slit, the first inductor having a first end and a second end, the second end coupled to the second region of the metal structure,
- a second inductor at the second slit, the second inductor having a third end and a fourth end, the third end coupled to the second region of the metal structure, and the fourth end coupled to the third region of the metal structure, and
- a first terminal coupled to the first end of the first inductor;
- and
- a cover configured to cover at least one surface of the mobile device, the cover including a second metal material, and the cover and at least a portion of the frame configured to operate as a second antenna for a second wireless communication.
A housing of a mobile device, comprising:
- a frame defining a perimeter of the mobile device, the frame including a first metal material and configured to operate as a first antenna for a first wireless communication, the frame including,
- a metal structure defining the perimeter of the mobile device, the metal structure being divided into first through third regions by first and second slits, the first slit between the first region and the second region, and the second slit between the second region and the third region,
- a first low pass filter at the first slit, the first low pass filter having a first end and a second end, and a second end coupled to the second region of the metal structure,
- a second low pass filter at the second slit, the second low pass filter having a third end and a fourth end, the third end coupled to the second region of the metal structure, and the fourth end coupled to the third region of the metal structure, and
- a first terminal coupled to the first end of the first low pass filter;
- and
- a cover configured to cover at least one surface of the mobile device, the cover including a second metal material, and the cover and at least a portion of the frame configured to operate as a second antenna for a second wireless communication.
A housing of a mobile device, comprising:
- a frame defining at least a part of a perimeter of the mobile device, the frame including a metal structure, the frame configured to operate as a first antenna for a first wireless communication;
- a first terminal electrically connected to the metal structure of the frame;
- and
- a cover covered by the frame and configured to cover at least one surface of the mobile device, the cover including a metal region, an insulating region and a second terminal, the first terminal on the insulating region, the second terminal in the metal region adjacent to the first terminal, at least a portion of the cover and at least a portion of the frame configured to form a signal path between the first and second terminals to operate as a second antenna for a second wireless communication, the second wireless communication having a range shorter than the first wireless communication.
