Abstract

A communication device, method and computer program product enable satellite communication via a patch antenna incorporated into an extendable display device. A flexible display support structure moveably attached to and positionable on a base housing between retracted and extended positions. One of the flexible display support structure and the base housing has an antenna surface that is covered by the other one while the flexible display support structure is retracted and uncovered while extended. A flexible display is coupled across a front side of the base housing and the flexible display support structure to present a larger portion while extended and a smaller portion while retracted. A patch antenna is positioned on the antenna surface. The patch antenna includes a ground plane, a substrate comprising a low dielectric constant and low loss material and positioned on the ground plane, and a conductive radiator patch positioned on the substrate.
