Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with an antenna having a resonating element and a light source module mounted to a flexible printed circuit and a metal cowling. The module may emit light through a rear housing wall. The printed circuit may be interposed between the metal cowling and a conductive support plate in the rear housing wall. The printed circuit may include a ground trace coupled to the resonating element. A dimpled pad may couple the ground trace to the support plate. Compressive foam may be used to exert a force against the flexible printed circuit that presses the dimpled pad against the conductive support plate. The ground trace and the dimpled pad may form a return path to ground for the resonating element. The dimpled pad may occupy less height within the device than other structures such as metal springs.

Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with peripheral conductive housing structures having a first segment and a second segment. First and second antenna feeds may be coupled between the first segment and the ground structures.

Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with an antenna resonating element on a first substrate that is mounted to a second substrate. A signal conductor may be coupled to a feed terminal on the antenna resonating element. The signal conductor may include impedance matching structures for the antenna. The impedance matching structures may include an open transmission line stub, a grounded transmission line stub, and a phase shifting segment. The impedance matching structures may configure the antenna to exhibit a wide bandwidth in an ultra-wideband (UWB) frequency band.

Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with a liquid crystal polymer (LCP) printed circuit having conductive trace and a hole. A conductive flange may be soldered to the conductive trace and may extend into the hole. The end of the conductive flange may laterally surround a central opening within the hole. A conductive contact may be inserted into the central opening. Solder may be deposited over the conductive flange and in the central opening. The solder may couple the conductive contact to the conductive flange and thus the conductive trace. This may ensure a robust mechanical and electrical connection between the conductive contact and the conductive trace on the printed circuit despite the printed circuit being formed from LCP, which may not support copper-plated through vias for coupling to the conductive contact.

Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with peripheral conductive housing structures, a first antenna, and a second antenna. A gap may divide the housing structures into a first segment forming an arm of the first antenna and a second segment forming an arm of the second antenna. A first feed terminal may be coupled to the first segment and a second feed terminal may be coupled to the second segment. Switchable components may be coupled in parallel between the first and second feed terminals across the gap. The switchable components may be adjusted to tune the frequency response of the first and/or second antenna. The switchable components may have a first state in which only the first feed terminal feeds the first antenna and may have a second state in which both the first and second feed terminals feed the first antenna.

A tuner and filters may be disposed on the flexible printed circuit and may be coupled to the conductive traces. The conductive trace on the second tail may have a tapered width. An antenna in the device may have a resonating element that includes both the first and second segments, thereby allowing the antenna to exhibit a wide bandwidth from 1.1-5 GHz.

The flexible printed circuit may include signal conductors coupled to one or more antennas on the rigid printed circuit through the B2B connector. A given one of the signal conductors may include a phase shifter segment on the flexible printed circuit and/or a thick impedance matching segment on the rigid printed circuit that help to form a smooth impedance transition from the flexible printed circuit to the rigid printed circuit and the antenna(s). The B2B connector may include signal contacts interleaved with a ground contacts. The B2B connector may include ground bars laterally surrounding the signal and ground contacts to maximize the strength of mechanical coupling between the flexible printed circuit and the rigid printed circuit.

Abstract: Various embodiments include methods and systems having detection apparatus operable to cancel or reduce leakage signal originating from a source signal being generated and transmitted from a transmitter. A leakage cancellation signal can be generated digitally, converted to an analog signal, and then subtracted in the analog domain from a received signal to provide a leakage-reduced signal for use in detection and analysis of objects. A digital cancellation signal may be generated by generating a cancellation signal in the frequency domain and converting it to the time domain. Optionally, an estimate of a residual leakage signal can be generated and applied to reduce residual leakage remaining in the leakage-reduced signal. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods can be implemented in a variety of applications.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide techniques for efficiently and accurately performing propagation of search-head specific configuration customizations across multiple individual configuration files of search heads of a cluster for a consistent user experience. The cluster of search heads may be synchronized such that the search heads operate to receive the configuration or knowledge object customizations from one or more clients from a central or lead search head. To reduce the amount of data that is transferred during propagation, the list of configuration or knowledge object customizations maintained in each search head is filtered from the list of the lead search head until a divergence point is determined. Once determined and communicated to the lead search head, the lead search head sends the configuration and knowledge object customization data that is absent from the internal list of the member search head.

A method is provided that includes referencing qualification parameters in an elected search head captain, determining whether the newly elected search head captain is qualified for the position based on the parameters, identifying a more qualified search head to be the search head captain if the newly elected search head captain is determined to be unqualified for the position, and transferring the position of captain to the more qualified search head. The qualification parameters may include, for example, a pre-determined static flag set by an administrator of the search environment, and configuration replication status that corresponds to the most recent configuration state of the search head as recorded by the previous search head captain.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides solutions for determining the divergence (delta) between the current and previous reference data structures for mutable data in a search head. A method is provided that includes updating a pre-existing lookup table in a search head, generating a delta file that identifies the divergence between the updated and previous lookup table, and distributing the delta file to other components in the search environment. The compatibility of the delta file is checked with the local instance of the lookup table in each search component, and the lookup table is applied if compatibility is determined. However, if the delta file is determined to not be compatible with the current version of a local lookup table in an indexer, the entire lookup table sent to the requesting indexer instead.
