Abstract
An illumination device is disclosed, and includes a first housing defining an interior cavity and an aperture, at least one lighting element, and a driver board electrically coupled to the lighting element. The driver board includes an antenna element. The driver board is positioned at least in part within the interior cavity of the first housing. The aperture of the first housing is positioned so as to create a pathway such that radio frequency (RF) signals reach the interior cavity of the first housing.
