The present invention provides a wireless communication module system for use with a portable personal computer (PC) having a motherboard and an integral display screen. In one embodiment, the system includes a single wired interface having first and second ends, where the first end is coupled to the motherboard and the second end is coupled to the display screen and provides a connection port. The system further includes a wireless communication module having an antenna and an interface port removably coupled to the connection port. In this embodiment, the module also includes a transceiver configured to employ the antenna to transmit and receive radio communication signals, where the transceiver is further configured to employ the interface port to communicate with the motherboard. A method for performing a wireless communication and a wireless communication system incorporating the wireless communication module system or the method are also disclosed.

The system for deploying an antenna of an integrated circuit card includes a card housing protecting electronic components, and at least one antenna. The antenna has a proximal end and a distal end, and an antenna housing protects the antenna. The antenna housing is movably connected to the card housing such that as the antenna housing moves relative to the card housing, the distal end of the antenna moves relative to the card housing.
