Abstract
An antenna for a wireless communicating device can be set at a precise frequency, in the as formed state. A coil antenna is precisely held in a mold, while an appropriate plastic is molded therearound, with no distortion of the coil, to fix a precise shape for the coil. The recovered, plastic-encased coil requires little or no follow-up treatment before it can be used in a wireless communication device as an antenna.
