Abstract
A portable radio device incorporating active thermal mitigation systems, and methods of use thereof. An example radio device incorporating an active thermal mitigation system may comprise a portable radio device selectively connectable or otherwise interoperable with a power adapter or battery device, wherein the power adapter or battery device includes an active thermal mitigation system. The system may include a micro-fan, blower, or other similar device configured to generate airflow, and may be configured to direct a flow of air or other fluid towards the radio device. The system may further include one or more fins or other features for directing and/or enhancing fluid flow, as well as sensors and control features to vary flow depending on temperature of the radio device or other variables. Thus, the system allows for the continuous cooling the radio device via convection without requiring the incorporation of the active thermal mitigation system within the radio device.
