Abstract: A radio frequency (RF) tamper detector of an electronic device can offer improved chassis intrusion monitoring to protect the device from software and hardware-based tampering. The tamper detector can monitor RF noise levels in a first frequency band and in a second frequency band to calculate an RF noise level moving average for each frequency band. If the moving averages in both frequency bands exceed a RF noise threshold, the tamper detector can set a cover removal flag to indicate that a cover of the device housing has been removed. The tamper detector can cause the electronic device to lock or disable a system BIOS when cover removal is detected. Additionally, the electronic device can notify remote monitoring systems (e.g., operated by an IT administrator or warranty support center) to receive additional instructions to secure the device.

Abstract: An example electronic device includes a network communication interface to connect to a conference server, a central control device communication interface to connect to a local central control device, a microphone and a processor. The processor is to receive audio at the microphone and send the audio to the local central control device and to the conference server. The processor is to send the audio to the local central control device such that it is received by a nearby electronic device before the audio is received from the conference server by the nearby electronic device.

Abstract: In an example, a computing device in a particular region is detected based on receipt by the computing device of a wireless beacon signal. A peripheral device connected to the computing device is identified in response to the detection. A location of the peripheral device is determined in response to a determination that the computing device has been moved to outside the particular region. A lost device notification is activated in response to the location being inside the particular region.

Abstract: In some examples, a device can include a first antenna having a first wireless connection with a first computing device, a second antenna having a second wireless connection with a second computing device, and a controller to determine a signal strength of the first wireless connection and a signal strength of the second wireless connection, designate, in response to the signal strength of the first wireless connection being greater than a threshold signal strength, the first wireless connection as an active connection and the second wireless connection as a standby connection, and cause the peripheral device to communicate with the first computing device via the active connection of the first antenna while maintaining the second wireless connection to the second computing device via the second antenna, where the second wireless connection remains as the standby connection.

Abstract: A printed dual-band Yagi-Uda antenna is disclosed, which includes a substrate, a first driver, a first director, a second driver and a reflector. The first driver is formed on the substrate, and is utilized for generating a radiation pattern of a first frequency band. The first director is formed at a side of the first driver on the substrate, and is utilized for directing the radiation pattern of the first frequency band toward a first direction. The second driver is formed between the first driver and the first director on the substrate, and is utilized for generating a radiation pattern of a second frequency band. The reflector is formed at another side of the first driver on the substrate, and is utilized for reflecting both the radiation patterns of the first frequency band and the second frequency band toward the first direction.
