Each antenna element (12) comprises a slot (32) being shaped such that the polarisation of the corresponding antenna element (12) is non-linear, and having a first axis (A1) and a second axis (A2) orthogonal to the first axis. Each of the first and second axes (A1; A2) has a length in the range of about 0.05-0.2 times the operating wavelength of the incoming radio wave (52) and the ratio of the length of the first axis A.sub.1 to the length of the second axis A.sub.2 is between about 1-2.5. There is also a method of configuring an antenna array 10 for detecting an incoming radio wave (52), and a method of determining the angle of arrival of a radio wave (52) impinging on such an antenna array (10).

The present disclosure provides a spatial feeding end-fire array antenna based on electromagnetic surface technologies, including: a primary feed, configured to transmit and/or receive electromagnetic waves; and a single-layer and/or multi-layer medium-metal combination surface, configured to convert the electromagnetic waves emitted from the primary feed to an end-fire focused beam, or to concentrate space waves received in an end-fire direction into the primary feed. The single-layer and/or multi-layer medium-metal combination surface has a thickness that is equal to or less than one percent of working wavelength of the antenna.

In one example, a base cover for a lower housing of a convertible device is described, which may include a metal body and an antenna window attached to the metal body. The antenna window may include a non-metallic structure and a metallic structure disposed within the non-metallic structure such that the metallic structure corresponds to an antenna slot defined in an upper housing of the convertible device.
