Abstract
An integrated connector-antenna assembly is provided, wherein an antenna is monolithically integrated with a radio frequency (RF) connector housing. The connector-antenna assembly may also include the RF signal element, wherein the connector center pin is monolithically integrated to the connector housing. Although part of the connector-antenna assembly, the connector housing and connector signal element still serve the connector function, which is essentially a channel for RF signal from the RF signal source to the antenna.
