Abstract
An antenna assembly (100) for use in a portable two-way radio communications device includes a radio housing (101) including one or more boss (103) used for securing portions of a substrate (105) to the radio housing. An aperture (115) located within an antenna housing (111) is positioned over an antenna boss (107) where a metal trace located on the substrate (105) can be electrically connected to the antenna housing (111) using a fastener (109). The antenna assembly (100) permits an antenna element (113) located in the antenna housing (111) to be easily connected to the substrate (105) using minimal component parts while fastening both the antenna housing (111) and substrate (105) into a fixed position.
