Abstract
An antenna in a lightbulb may include a conductive plane (e.g., a ground plane) that includes an edge-enabled void antenna (EEVA) with the EEVA including a corresponding edge-enabled void isolator (EEVI). Use of both the EEVA and the EEVI allows for a small antenna footprint for incorporation into a lightbulb. Optionally, two EEVAs, each with a corresponding EEVI may be used. Various arrangements are provided to illustrate possible compromises between structural integrity and cooling. Further, by using two EEVAs, diversity reception and transmission is possible, increasing the utility of the lightbulb by expanding directionality of the transmission/reception and/or improving communication through spatial diversity.
