A display stack with millimeter-wave antenna functionality comprising a plurality of adj oining layers, the layers comprising at least a cover layer, a touch sensor panel layer comprising a touch sensor arrangement, and a display panel layer. The touch sensor panel layer comprises a first sensor line grid pattern and a second sensor line grid pattern, the first sensor line grid pattern comprising a plurality of continuous first sensor lines, the second sensor line grid pattern comprising a plurality of continuous second sensor lines. At least a part of the first sensor lines and the second sensor lines are configured to function as radiators for the millimeter wave antenna functionality. This allows providing the millimeter wave antenna in the touch sensor panel structure without the antenna and the touch sensor panel interfering with each other.

The present invention relates to a luminaire having at least one illuminant (6), a luminaire housing (1), and at least one operating device (4), arranged in the luminaire housing (1), for the at least one illuminant (6), wherein the operating device (4) has an antenna (5) for transmitting and receiving a radio signal, and the luminaire housing (1) has at least one slot antenna (2) that is coupled to the antenna (5) of the operating device (4) by means of radiation coupling, a waveguide, or a cavity resonator in order to transmit the radio signal to outside the luminaire housing (1).

The present disclosure is generally directed to an RFID tag for use with a metal fastener where the fastener operates as the antenna of the RFID tag. The RFID tag includes a microchip for storing data. The chip is electrically coupled to the metal fastener in order to receive and transmit the RF signal, the metal fastener thereby operating as the antenna for the RFID tag.

Systems and methods of the present disclosure include controlling directions of communications including a processor to obtain performance data of an integrated roofing accessory installed on a roof, the integrated roofing accessory including an antenna and a transceiver to enable fifth generation cellular networking (5G) protocol communication with a 5G-enabled device, and an adjustable attachment to orient or position the antenna. The performance data is indicative of 5G signal performance between the integrated roofing accessory and the 5G-enabled device. A signal performance affecting condition is determined using the performance data, where the signal performance affecting condition is a reduced signal performance of a 5G signal beam of the antenna. An improved orientation or an improved position of the antenna is determined to remedy the signal performance affecting condition. The adjustable attachment is controlled to physically adjust he orientation of the position to achieve the improved orientation or position.

A dual-use spring attached to a small satellite that performs two common functions for small satellites including operating as a communications antenna for the small satellite, which eliminates the need for a separate antenna deployment step, and ejecting the small satellite from a modified deployment container mounted on a launch vehicle. The deployment container is modified by removing a conventional deployment spring and pusher plate, which increases available container space.

Configurations of an electronic communication device, an electronic device or an antenna structure are described herein. The antenna structure includes a building construction block structure that provides a non-radiating portion of the antenna structure. A radiating element is formed on one side of the building construction block provides a radiating portion of the antenna structure. The radiating element may include a coating of a metallic element, such as copper. Further, the antenna structure includes a ground plane that is spaced apart from the radiating element on the building construction block structure. The ground plane may partially include a portion of the radiating element configured to adhere to the building construction block structure of the antenna structure. The antenna structure may passively transmit and/or receive signals and provisions flexibility of deployment in different configurations based on the applications.
