An integrated heatsink and antenna structure that is suitable for inclusion in small and midsized computing devices. The integrated heatsink and antenna structure may include a plurality of fin components that dissipate thermal energy integrated into a heatsink base and a plurality of radio frequency antenna portions coupled to and surrounded by the fin components. The plurality of radio frequency antenna portions may form a monopole antenna. The heatsink base may operate as a ground reference for each of the plurality of the antenna portions and to improve an omnidirectional pattern of each of the plurality of the antenna portions.

Integrated heatsink and antenna structure

A multiple layer printed circuit board (PCB) in which the cores (or core layers) are removed and replaced with prepreg layers, which provide structure integrity for the PCB. Such a multi-layer PCB may include signal layers, ground plane layers, inner signal layers, and a single core substrate layer. Each of the layers may be separated from the other layers by at least one prepreg substrate layer.

Method and procedure for miniaturing a multi-layer PCB

A resilient antenna securing device that includes a frame structure and a plurality of fin components projecting outwardly from the frame structure. The fin components are configured to receive and hold one or more RF antenna portions. Each fin of a first pair of the plurality of fins components includes a tab that extends toward the other fin of the first pair of fins. At least one first intermediate fin of the plurality of fins is disposed between the first pair of fins. The tabs from the first pair of fins together trap a first RF antenna portion between the tabs and the at least one first intermediate fin.

Resilient antenna securing mechanism

Various embodiments include a connector head assembly for an electrical cable attached to one or more receptacle connectors. The connector head assembly may include an elongate overmold having a longitudinal extent that is longer than a height or width thereof. The elongate overmold may be configured to encase a terminal end of the electrical cable coupled to the one or more receptacle connectors inside the elongate overmold. The connector head assembly may also include a pull tab pivotally attached to the elongate overmold on an upper surface thereof. A pulling force applied to the pull tab may be configured to separate the receptacle connector from a receptacle in which the receptacle connector is configured to be held.

Cable pull tab

The embodiments include a stackable computing device that includes an integrated heatsink and antenna structure and a housing structure. The housing structure includes a housing casing that surrounds the integrated heatsink and antenna structure. The integrated heatsink and antenna structure includes a heatsink base and one or more radio frequency (RF) antenna portions. The heatsink base includes a connector port that provides an interface between components of the computing device and other computing or peripheral devices. For example, the heatsink base may include platform that is configured to have circuitry fixedly secured on a first side of the platform with a connector of the circuitry aligned with an aperture of the connector port such that a connection to the circuitry is accepted by circuitry of another computing device.

Expandable architecture and bus for consumer gateway

A modular wireless communications system (edge device, etc.) that includes a base unit having a base unit processor and one or more additional units that each include a processor, in which the base unit processor is configured with processor-executable software instructions to determine whether the base unit has been combined with the one or more additional units to create a combined unit and/or whether one or more of the additional units have been detached from the combined unit. The processor may automatically perform an edge reconfiguration interrogation and enumeration (ERIE) operation in response to determining that the base unit has been combined with the one or more additional units to create the combined unit or in response to determining that one or more of the additional units have been detached from the combined unit.

Module identification method for expandable gateway applications

An integrated heatsink and antenna structure that is suitable for inclusion in small and midsized computing devices. The integrated heatsink and antenna structure may include heatsink portions and radio frequency antenna portions. The heatsink portions may provide a path for dissipating thermal energy or heat generated by the components in the device (e.g., printed circuit boards, processors, voltage amplifiers, etc.), and the radio frequency (RF) antenna portions may allow the device to send and receive wireless communications. The integrated heatsink and antenna structure may be formed so that radio frequency antenna portions operate to improve the thermal performance of the heatsink portions and/or so that the heatsink portions operate to improve the antenna properties (e.g., radiation patterns, radiation efficiency, bandwidth, input impedance, polarization, directivity, gain, beam-width, voltage standing wave ratio, etc.) of the radio frequency antenna portions.

A multiple layer printed circuit board (PCB) in which the cores (or core layers) are removed and replaced with prepreg layers, which provide structure integrity for the PCB. Such a multi-layer PCB may include a plurality of layers that include a plurality of signal layers, a plurality of ground plane layers, a plurality of inner signal layers, and a single core substrate layer. Each layer in the plurality of layers may be separated from every other layer in the plurality of layers by at least one prepreg substrate layer.
