Abstract

Disclosed are a system, apparatus, and method for improving performance of antennas in electronic devices. The disclosed system, apparatus, and method uses a transparent dielectric substrate as an antenna. The transparent dielectric substrate may receive energy from a wave launcher and printed circuit board. To work as an antenna, the whole structure may include at least one wave launcher located between the dielectric transparent substrate and a printed circuit board. Also, the structure may include a ground at the bottom of solid dielectric transparent substrate with a separation space. The space should not be less than wavelength 1/10 of fundamental resonant frequency.
