ABSTRACT:
An antenna assembly for implementing an antenna internally in a mobile communications device. The antenna assembly includes a substantially planar antenna having terminals extending substantially perpendicular outward from the antenna and disposed adjacent and opposite one another. The antenna assembly also includes a connector having conducting surfaces that are disposed substantially parallel, on opposite surfaces of the connector. The connector may be mounted on a spacer that is mounted in the communications device, with the connector and conducting surfaces substantially perpendicular to the spacer. The antenna is placed on the spacer with the terminals of the antenna extending in the direction of the spacer along both sides of the connector and the terminals each contact one of the conducting surfaces of the connector. The antenna assembly may be secured in the device using a cover congruent with the outer covering of the device. Desired electrical connections to each of the antenna terminals may be made by connecting each of the conducting surfaces to a feed point or ground connection.
