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.

Abstract: A calibration circuit includes a single-wire memory and a transmission line. The single-wire memory includes a power/interrogation terminal and a ground terminal. The single-wire memory is configured to store calibration data for a sensor. The transmission line is configured to be coupled between the sensor and a sensor reader. The transmission line includes first and second conductors. The first conductor is coupled to the power/interrogation terminal and is configured to provide the calibration data and a sensor output signal to the sensor reader. The second conductor is coupled to the ground terminal and is configured to provide a ground reference for the first conductor, the single-wire memory, and the sensor.

Abstract: Biological entity communication channel techniques are described. In one or more implementations, an apparatus includes a signal conductor having a side that is configured to be disposed proximal to a surface of a biological entity to use at least a part of the biological entity as a transmission channel to transmit a signal received by the signal conductor from an electrical device. The apparatus also includes a ground layer configured to be disposed on an opposing side of the signal conductor from the side of the signal conductor that is configured to be disposed against the surface of the biological entity.
