Disclosed herein is a metal frame for a device being equipped with a wireless charging transmitter or receiver including a plurality of perforation holes configured in at least one partial area of the metal frame, wherein the perforation hole has a diameter ranging from sub nm to several m, and wherein an average distance between an arbitrary point A on a circumferential surface of a perforation hole, among the plurality of perforation holes, and an arbitrary point B on a circumferential surface of another perforation hole being adjacent to the perforation hole is equal to or less than a skin depth corresponding to a metallic material of the metal frame, and wherein point A and point B respectively correspond to points indicating a longest distance between the circumferential surfaces of each perforation hole to which point A and point B belong. Accordingly, the metal frame is expected to perform wireless charging by including at least a wireless charging receiver, i.e., enabling wireless charging to be carried out smoothly despite equipping a mobile device with a metal frame for its outer feature instead of a plastic frame, wherein the metal frame provides an excellent texture of premium quality and outstanding durability as compared to the plastic frame.

An electronic system may include a charging device and an electronic device. The charging device may include an input port, a charge circuit, a storage, and a connector device. The charging device may receive a direct current (DC) voltage at the input port. The charge circuit may receive the DC voltage and provide a charged voltage to the storage. The electronic device may include a body, a battery, a first pad directly on the battery and a second pad directly on the battery. The battery may receive the DC charged voltage when the electronic device is coupled to the charging device.

A mobile communication device and a method of mitigating wind noise in a speech signal generated at a microphone of the mobile communication device. A primary microphone of the mobile communication device receives speech and wind noise and generates a first speech signal based on the speech and the wind noise that is received. A secondary microphone of the mobile communication device receives attenuated speech and generates a second speech signal based on the attenuated speech that is received. The secondary microphone is shielded from the wind noise when the primary microphone receives speech and the wind noise. A processor of the mobile communication device processes the first speech signal to replace a low frequency portion of the first speech signal with the second speech signal in order to mitigate the wind noise in the first speech signal.

A wireless communication system includes an electronic device. A first communication unit is worn around a thumb. Thus, the first communication unit is positioned proximate an ear. The first communication unit is in electrical communication with the electronic device. A second communication unit is worn around a finger. Thus, the second communication unit is positioned proximate a mouth. The second communication unit detects spoken words. The second communication unit is in electrical communication with the electronic device. A charging unit is provided. Each of the first communication unit and the second communication unit is selectively placed in electrical communication with the charging unit. Thus, the charging unit charges each of the first communication unit and the second communication unit.

In embodiments of the present disclosure, after a mobile terminal has recognized a type of a power adapter, the mobile terminal actively initiates a quick charging request, and negotiates with the power adapter via handshake communication to determine charging parameters. The power adapter charges a battery of the mobile terminal via a multi-stage constant current mode.

Methods and devices are provided for quick charging. In the method, after a mobile terminal recognizes a type of a power adapter, the mobile terminal transmits indication information to the power adapter. The indication information is configured to indicate that the mobile terminal has recognized the type of the power adapter and instruct the power adapter to activate a quick charging process. The power adapter then negotiates with the mobile terminal via the quick charging process to determine charging parameters, and charges a battery of the mobile terminal in a multi-stage constant current mode.
