Abstract
A communication device includes a metal chassis, a printed circuit board positioned within the metal chassis, and a hybrid cavity mode antenna. The hybrid cavity mode antenna includes a conductive wall defining at least a portion of a cavity, wherein the cavity is further defined by one or more surfaces of the metal chassis and the printed circuit board, and an electrically-fed antenna configured to radiate a first radiofrequency signal in a first frequency range. The electrically-fed antenna is electrically driven from the printed circuit board of the communication device. The electrically-fed antenna is positioned within the cavity to drive the cavity to radiate a second radiofrequency signal in a second frequency range.
