Abstract: A build-in, multi band, multi antenna system (1) for a protable communicaiton device (10) has a first antenna (2, 4, 5), which is resonant in first an second frequency band. A secon antenna (3) is resonant in a fourth frequency bank. The first antenna, the papasitic element and the second antenna are provided on a common flexible substrate.

Abstract: An antenna has a radiator mounted on a substrate, at least two terminals that are connected to the radiator and that extend away from a surface of the substrate, and a circuit board that is electrically connected to the radiator via the terminals. The terminals are accommodated by respective contact areas, such as holes, in the circuit board and are advantageously resilient. In this way, mis-alignment between the substrate and the circuit board is compensated, reducing the risk of antenna frequency offset.

Abstract: A system for interconnecting the bus structure of separate I/O block units to form a common system backplane for data communications purposes. The system includes sets of pins and matching pin receptacles electrically coupled to bus structures on circuit boards installed on base units onto which different types of I/O modules can be removably mounted. The pins and pin receptacles for each base unit are mounted on opposite lateral sides of the base units. The pins and pin receptacles are constructed and arranged for convenient interconnection between the bases of adjacent units whereby a common system backplane may be formed.
