An electronic device comprises a first radiator coupled to a second radiator. One end of a second branch of the second radiator is connected between a head end and a tail end of a first branch of the second radiator. The other end of the second branch is connected between a head end and a tail end of a third branch of the second radiator. A projection of a reference face of the first branch on the first radiator is a first projection. The first projection partly overlaps the first radiator, or a distance between the first projection and the first radiator is within a range of 0 to 3 millimeters. A ratio of a first center distance between an end face of the third branch and the reference face, and a second center distance between the other end face of the third branch and the reference face is within a range of 0.5 to 2.

Provided is an antenna system mounted on a vehicle according to the present invention. The antenna system comprises: a first printed circuit board (PCB) having a metal pattern and a dielectric region; a second PCB on which a plurality of antennas are disposed; and a slot antenna configured to radiate a signal through a slot region formed adjacent to a junction portion of the first PCB and the second PCB.

A near-field communication (NFC) antenna structure for radiation enhancement of a computing device that includes a ferrite sheet, separated into two sections. The NFC antenna structure may be used to improve (i) the magnetic field strength generated by an NFC antenna and (ii) inductive coupling to a receiving antenna of another computing device. A first ferrite section may be placed on a first side of the NFC antenna to at least partially overlap the NFC antenna, and a second ferrite section may be placed on a second side (opposite the first side) to at least partially overlap the NFC antenna. The first ferrite section may be positioned towards a top end that is often positioned closest to a receiving device, as held by a user when performing a contactless communication of the computing device, to increase the magnetic field strength and improve the inductive coupling at the top end.

The present disclosure provides an electronic package. The electronic package includes an antenna structure having a first antenna and a second antenna at least partially covered by the first antenna. The electronic package also includes a directing element covering the antenna structure. The directing element has a first portion configured to direct a first electromagnetic wave having a first frequency to transmit via the first antenna and a second portion configured to direct a second electromagnetic wave having a second frequency different from the first frequency to transmit via the second antenna. A method of manufacturing an electronic package is also provided.

A provided wireless wallbox dimmer may accommodate a plurality of button configurations. The dimmer may be configured to contain a variable number of controllably conductive devices. The dimmer may include a yoke that defines a first plane and an antenna that defines a second plane that is substantially parallel to and spaced apart from the first plane. The yoke may have a flange that is oriented angularly offset relative to the first plane and provides a plurality of mounting locations for controllably conductive devices. The antenna may provide the dimmer with a first wireless transmission range. The dimmer may include a faceplate that cooperates with the antenna to provide the dimmer with a second wireless transmission range that is broader than the first wireless transmission range. The dimmer may include a button assembly that is supported independently of the yoke.

A method for curing antenna violations on an integrated circuit that includes multiple levels includes: obtaining a design of a circuit, the design including a first element connected to first device and a second element connected to one or more second devices, wherein the first and second elements both receive a common signal; determining that an antenna violation exists in on the first element at a first level of the multiple levels; and modifying the design of the circuit to add a connected between the first element and the second element at the first layer or at a layer below the first layer.

A low-PIM dual pipe clamp and associated mounting bracket for securing a first pipe transverse to a second pipe at a cellular base station antenna site. The dual pipe clamp accommodates a range of pipe diameters with lower PIM generation, cost, and weight characteristics compared to conventional dual pipe clamps traditionally used at cell sites. The low-PIM dual pipe clamp minimizes the number of parts to upper and lower mounting brackets connected by linear threaded rod connectors, such as bolts, avoiding the use of U-bolts known to create PIM interference in conventional designs. The dual pipe clamp secures first and second pipes against each other in transverse orientations (e.g., horizontal and vertical), as typically utilized to mount antennas at cellular base stations. Each mounting bracket includes first and second pipe restrainers that bias the first and second pipes against each other as the threaded rod connectors are tightened.
