Abstract: Disclosed herein are antenna boards, antenna modules, antenna board fixtures, and communication devices. For example, in some embodiments, a communication device may include an integrated circuit (IC) package, an antenna patch support, and one or more antenna patches coupled to the antenna patch support by solder or an adhesive.

Abstract: The techniques described herein relate to a Radio Frequency (RF) communication module for a hand-held mobile electronic device. The Radio Frequency (RF) communication module includes a circuit board and a plurality of antennas disposed on a top side and bottom side of the circuit board. The plurality of antennas comprise a first subset of antennas comprising end-fire antennas and a second subset of antennas comprising broadside antennas. The first subset of antennas and the second subset of antennas also have a bandwidth of approximately 40 percent. The Radio Frequency (RF) communication module also includes a shielded area comprising circuitry coupled to the circuit board for controlling the antennas.
