Abstract
Techniques and mechanisms to provide wireless communication with a body-mountable device comprising a single-loop antenna. In an embodiment, distal ends of the single-loop antenna are disposed on opposite sides of a slit structure, wherein the single-loop antenna extends around a controller configured to provide any of multiple modes of high-frequency communication with the single-loop antenna. Different operational modes each provide for operation of the single-loop antenna with both a proximity-coupled feed structure and a first contact at or near a distal end of the single-loop antenna. In another embodiment, the single-loop antenna forms a hole or a recess structure which is aligned with a sensor or an input/output (I/O) mechanism of the body-mountable device.
