In one embodiment, a first antenna element has a substantially vertical axis. An array of second antenna elements is configured to radiate or receive an aggregate radially polarized electromagnetic signal component. The array defines a substantially horizontal plane that is generally orthogonal to the substantially vertical axis of the first antenna element. The aggregate radially polarized electromagnetic signal is derived from radially polarized electromagnetic signal components associated with corresponding ones of the second antenna elements. The aggregate radially polarized electromagnetic signal is derived from radially polarized electromagnetic signal components associated with corresponding ones of the second antenna elements.

An antenna apparatus includes a ground plate, a radiator, and a signal source. The radiator is disposed on the ground plate. The signal source is configured to feed an electromagnetic wave signal of a first frequency band into the radiator. A first slot and a second slot are disposed on the ground plate. Both slots are closed slots and surround the radiator, and are used to restrain current distribution on the ground plate.

An antenna apparatus has a sleeve antenna. The sleeve antenna has an internal conductive member, an external conductive member, an insulating member, and a mountain-shaped conductive member that is electrically connected to the external conductive member. The mountain-shaped conductive member expands radially from an upper edge towards a lower edge. The internal conductive member protrudes higher than the external conductive member above the upper edge of the mountain-shaped conductive member.

This document describes a passive thermal-control system that is integrated into a mesh network device. The passive thermal-control system, which may include a heat sink and multiple heat spreaders, is such that heat originating with integrated circuit devices of the mesh network device and a speaker module of the mesh network device may be transferred to other components of the mesh network device, such as a housing component of the mesh network device. The heat may then be dissipated to an external environment to maintain a desired thermal profile of the mesh network device.

An encapsulated multi-band monopole antenna is provided. Two or more sets of at least four monopole elements are encapsulated in a substrate. Conductive paths are arranged so that each element of a set of monopole element is connected to an element of each of the other sets of monopole elements.
