Electronic device including 5G antenna module

This invention describes an electronic device that integrates a 5G antenna module, designed for very high-frequency millimeter wave signals, with a main circuit board. It cleverly reuses a conductive part of the 5G module's ground system, extended by another conductive piece, to create an electrical path for the main circuit board. This allows the main board to handle other, lower-frequency wireless signals using a shared ground structure, rather than needing a completely separate antenna system.

Why it matters: Filed when 5G millimeter wave was nascent, the need for compact multi-band antenna integration in devices has intensified. This design offers a solution to the persistent challenge of fitting diverse wireless technologies into small form factors.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedMillimeter wave antenna, RF circuits, custom PCB
