Abstract: The present application provides a pre-signal amplifier, supply power conditioning apparatus, a wireless communication device and a method for providing selective pre-signal amplifier, supply power conditioning. A selective voltage supply boost stage is included, which has an input coupled to a voltage supply source for receiving a voltage supply, and an output for producing a selectively boosted voltage supply source. A voltage boost circuit is further included having a voltage boost control input coupled to a modem for controlling when the selectively boosted voltage supply source produced at the output is boosted. When the voltage boost control input identifies at least one of one or more modes in which the modem is currently operating, that a boost to the received voltage supply is desired, the resulting selectively boosted voltage supply source produced at the output is boosted.

Abstract: The present application provides an antenna system for use in an electronic device. The antenna system includes a conductive housing for the electronic device having a perimeter, which extends around the device. The conductive housing has a plurality of arms formed in the conductive housing at or near the perimeter. The antenna system further includes a conductive substrate, coupled to the conductive housing and located within the perimeter of the conductive housing. The conductive substrate has a notch located proximate the position of one of the plurality of arms in the conductive housing, where each of the plurality of arms respectively couples to the conductive substrate proximate the perimeter, and where the notch causes one of the plurality of arms to couple to the conductive substrate at a point having a different relative distance along the length of the perimeter of the conductive housing.

Abstract: A first antenna and a first band switch with a first duplexer operatively coupled to a first output of the first band switch. The first duplexer provides a transmit sub-band feed and a first receive sub-band feed for a first RF band. A second duplexer is operatively coupled to a second output of the first band switch, and provides a transmit sub-band feed and a first receive sub-band feed for a second RF band. A second antenna is operatively coupled to an input of a second band switch. A first antenna matching network for the second antenna is operatively coupled to a first output of the second band switch, and provides a second receive sub-band feed for the first RF band. A second antenna matching network is operatively coupled to a second output of the second band switch, and provides a second receive sub-band feed for the second RF band.

Abstract: A hybrid connector jack assembly for use in association with an electronic device comprising an audio jack component and a coaxial connector jack component. The audio jack component is coupled to an electronic circuit and has a proximal end and a distal end, an elongated opening extends from the proximal end to the distal end. It is structurally configured to receive a male audio connector. The coaxial connector jack component positioned at the distal end of the audio jack component and accessible through the elongated opening of the audio jack component. This allows for the insertion of a coaxial cable through the audio jack component and into operative engagement with the coaxial connector jack component.
