  • Publication number: 20150130666
    Abstract: An assembled wearable electronic device includes a first body, a second body and an engaging assembly. The first body has a primary system for providing the independent operation of the first body and producing a related first data. The second body has a secondary system and a fixing assembly. The secondary system is for providing the independent operation of the second body and producing a related second data. The engaging assembly is disposed at one of the first and second bodies. When the engaging assembly is located at a first position, the first and second bodies contact each other to be combined through the engaging assembly. When the engaging assembly moves to a second position, the first and second bodies are configured to be separated from each other. When the first and second bodies are connected to each other, the second data is read by the primary system.

  • Publication number: 20140176378
    Abstract: A multi-band antenna including a metal plate and a radiation element is provided. The metal plate is electrically connected to a ground plane and has a slot. A resonant path is formed by the edges of the slot. The radiation element has a feeding point and is located in the slot of the metal plate. A feeding signal from the radiation element is coupled to the metal plate, and the multi-band antenna excites a resonant mode by the resonant path of the metal plate, so as to receive or transmit a first radio frequency signal.

  • Patent number: 8730107
    Abstract: A multi-frequency antenna comprises a first conductor, a second conductor, a grounding member, and a third conductor. The first and second conductors are respectively arranged on a first plane and a second plane. The grounding member is arranged on a third plane existing between the first and second planes. The third conductor is connected with the first conductor and arranged on the first plane also. The first and third conductors are respectively coupled to the radiated signals of the second conductor to form a first electrical path and a second electrical path. The first electrical path and the second electrical path have a phase difference of 180 degrees. The present invention features the additional third conductor. The third conductor and the first conductor are coupled to the radiated signals of the second conductor to generate opposite-phase signals. Thus are counterbalanced the interferences among the antenna systems of an identical frequency band.

  • Publication number: 20140091970
    Abstract: An antenna including a ground plane, a radiation element and a frequency selective structure is provided. The ground plane has a reflection area, and a first side edge of the reflection area is aligned with an edge of the ground plane. The radiation element is disposed near the first side edge of the reflection area and is operated at a resonant frequency. A width of the reflection area is related to a wavelength of the resonant frequency of the radiation element. The frequency selective structure is disposed on the ground plane along side edges of the reflection area except the first side edge and is adapted to reflect an electromagnetic wave from the radiation element.
