Abstract: Antenna systems and methods are disclosed having parasitically-coupled surface-attachable antenna systems that provide significant advantages for portable information handling systems. A secondary antenna is coupled within a chassis for an information handling system, and a primary antenna is attached to an external surface of the chassis for the portable information handling system. The primary antenna element is configured to be parasitically coupled to the secondary antenna. For receive operations, radio frequency (RF) signals are received by the primary antenna element, and signals are parasitically induced on the secondary antenna. For transmit operations, RF signals are transmitted to the secondary antenna element, and signals are parasitically induced on the primary antenna.

Abstract: Wireless functionality is provided to desktop information handling systems by a module sized to fit as a storage drive bay component, such as a flexbay. The wireless functionality includes wireless personal area networking that supports peripherals, such as Ultra-Wideband or Bluetooth devices, or local area networking. An antenna for wireless processing components is disposed at the front portion of the module to provide optimal reception. A standardized information handling system interface is disposed at the rear of the module located to connect with the information handling system chassis. Additional functionality may alternatively be included in the module, such as a 12-in 1 card reader having interfaces at the front of the module to interact with memory cards or other devices.

Abstract: A combination antenna provides a common structure to combine a first electromagnetic radiation element and a second electromagnetic radiation element. The first electromagnetic radiation element and the second electromagnetic radiation element are tuned to operate independently and simultaneously over a first and second frequency band respectively. The common structure, which includes a common antenna structure, a common mounting structure and a common ground structure, saves space compared to a combined space occupied by the first electromagnetic radiation element and the second electromagnetic radiation element mounted separately as independent antennas.

Abstract: A microstrip antenna (10) comprises a planar antenna radiating element (12) having at least a first major surface and a ground plane having a first major surface (16), a second major surface (18), and a third major surface (20) substantially parallel to each other. A dielectric material (14) is positioned between the planar antenna radiating element and the ground plane. The microstrip antenna further includes a first gap (36) between the first major surface (18) of the ground plane and the second major surface (16) of the ground plane and a second gap (72) between the second major surface (16) of the ground plane and the third major surface (20) of the ground plane, wherein the first and second gaps create an increased impedance bandwidth and a lower operating frequency antenna.

Abstract: An antenna (100) has a connector (200) having a ground lead (102) and a signal lead (114). A dielectric (112) captures and embeds the connector (200) forming a connector substrate assembly (120) having a first side (122) and a second opposite side (124). A first conductive material (104) is affixed to the first side (122) of the connector substrate assembly (120) and coupling to the ground lead (102) and a second conductive material (110) is affixed to the second opposite side (124) of the connector substrate assembly (112) coupling the signal lead (114).

Abstract: An antenna has a quarter wave resonant strip (10) and first and second parasitically excited strips (12 and 14) resonant at a lower and upper frequency, respectively, of the antenna bandwidth. The strips (10, 12 and 14) have trim tabs (20, 22 and 24) for adjusting the resonant frequency of each strip. The location of a feed (30) is set to provide a desired impedance match for use by a radio (60) such as a pager. A ground plane (40) provides a grounding for the strips (10, 12 and 14) and inhibits undesirable radio frequency interaction between the radio (60) and the strips (10, 12 and 14).
