  • Patent number: 11955711
    Abstract: A redirecting structure for electromagnetic waves, the redirecting structure comprising a first reflection passage formed between a first conductive element and a second conductive element, and an antenna structure comprising an antenna element and a radiation passage extending from the antenna element in a first direction. The antenna structure is connected to the first reflection passage at a first interface, the first reflection passage extending in a second direction different from the first direction. A first reflective structure is associated with an interior of the first reflection passage and is arranged at a predetermined distance from the first interface such that electromagnetic waves propagating from the antenna structure into the first reflection passage are reflected to the radiation passage by the first reflective structure.

  • Publication number: 20230420828
    Abstract: A display assembly, a client device having the display assembly, and a method of manufacturing the display assembly are disclosed. Antenna performance in, e.g., mobile devices is improved via a robust and multifunctional multi-layer glass structure for a display of the mobile device or the like which allows placing auxiliary antenna elements between layers of the display structure. The structure allows placing the auxiliary antenna elements at different positions within it. The auxiliary antenna elements can be placed under and/or within the display, instead of, for example, surrounding the display. The multi-layer structure is continuous from the display surface to the substrate and gives freedom to place the auxiliary antenna elements, including metal elements, between any layers of the structure.
