An antenna includes: a connection device for connection with an electronic device; a cable connected to the connection device; and a high-frequency cutoff unit that is formed of a material having high impedance in a high frequency and disposed at a given position of the cable. The cable with a length defined by the high-frequency cutoff unit functions as an antenna.

Disclosed are an electronic device and a method for managing a specific absorption rate (SAR). In the present disclosure, even if an antenna for second communication is activated while the electronic device transmits/receives wireless signals of a plurality of frequency bands for first communication, an increase in an SAR value by frequency overlapping can be reduced or suppressed.

Embodiments of the invention are directed to a device having one or more electromagnetic components embedded in an anisotropic metamaterial (AM) comprising an array of asymmetric unit cells comprising a substrate forming a plurality of channels or spaces having at least one material with different electromagnetic properties included in the channels or spaces in the first material forming an anisotropic metamaterial.

Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided for detecting objects, including humans, using a mobile communications device. A communication space is scanned with a beam-shaped signal transmitted by a phased antenna array of the mobile communications device. Information is discerned from one or more attenuated signals received from the communication space based on the beam-shaped signal. The information is analyzed to determine an object in the communication space. Whether the object is likely at least a portion of a human is determined. A communication signal transmitted by the phased antenna array is modified in response to determining that the object is likely at least a portion of a human, and that the at least a portion of the human has a predetermined spatial relationship with the phased antenna array.

A radio frequency and electromagnetic emission shield employed on wireless personal and portable electronic devices, containing one or more layers of radio frequency (RF) or electromagnetic (EM) screening material, shielding the user from harmful RF or EM radiation, or a redirection antenna that receives all RF signals, and redirects those signals away from the user. The RF emission shield may be contained within a plurality of outer layers, providing a secure fit to a wireless electronic device and an outer layer providing an easy grip for the user.

An antenna of a mobile device is provided. The antenna includes two antennas that are disposed to be stepped from each other, thereby preventing degradation of an OTA characteristic and reducing an SAR. The antenna includes first and second surfaces stepped from each other on the top surface of an antenna carrier, and a low-band antenna emitter disposed on the first surface and a high-band antenna emitter disposed on the recessed second surface.

When a user equipment detects a condition that a distance between the user equipment, which has an established connection with a network entity of a communications network system, and a subject enters apre-warning region, the user equipment enters a monitoring mode based on at least the detected condition. In the monitoring mode, options of operations to be performed by the user equipment to mitigate degradation of the established connection due to a required power backoff of an antenna of the user equipment are monitored.

An information handling system (IHS) may include a configuration sensor for sensing a physical configuration of the IHS, a first proximity sensor probe for sensing whether a first biological entity element is proximate to a first antenna, a second proximity sensor probe for sensing whether a second biological entity element is proximate to a second antenna, and a third proximity sensor probe for sensing whether a third biological entity element is proximate to a third antenna. The IHS is adapted to reconfigure use of at least two of the first antenna, the second antenna, and the third antenna in response to the sensing of at least one of the first proximity sensor probe, the second proximity sensor probe, and the third proximity sensor.

An antenna front-end module, a method, and an information handling system are provided. An antenna front-end module comprises a circuit board. The circuit board comprises an antenna tuning circuit adapted to tune a feed impedance of an antenna, the antenna electrically connected to the circuit board, and an antenna proximity sensing circuit adapted to obtain proximity sensing information indicative of proximity of a part of a human body to the antenna. A method comprises obtaining, at an antenna proximity sensing circuit on a circuit board, proximity sensing information indicative of proximity of a part of a human body to an antenna, the antenna electrically connected to the circuit board, and, in response to the obtaining, providing, to an antenna tuning circuit on the circuit board, a tuning parameter value to adapt antenna tuning for the proximity of the part of the human body to the antenna.

Apparatuses and systems for millimeter-wave antennas are described. An apparatus comprises a board assembly, and a first and second antenna disposed within the board assembly. A third antenna can comprise a semiconductor antenna attached to the board assembly. A parasitic layer can be gap-coupled to the first and second antenna. The first and second antenna can include a rectangular patch antenna and an annular ring antenna. Other aspects are described.
