A conductive layer is applied to a thermoformed plastic component to form an integrated antenna assembly. The conductive layer is on a flexible layer and adhered or attached to the rigid thermoformed plastic carrier. Features are designed into the thermoformed plastic carrier to provide electrical contacts from the conductive layer to the circuit board of the communication device and to mechanically attach the carrier to the circuit board. Multiple conductive layers can be applied to a multi-layered thermoformed structure to form a multi-antenna assembly.

Low cost integrated antenna assembly and methods for fabrication thereof

A capacitively loaded magnetic dipole antenna is provided with a portion that comprises a length that is longer than a straight line distance between a first end and a second end of the third portion such that antenna with a tower profile and/or smaller form factor is achieved.

Capacitively loaded dipole antenna optimized for size

A capacitively coupled dipole antenna is coupled to a substrate such that a capacitative portion of the antenna spans a void in the substrate.
