Abstract
A user device having a dielectric carrier, a multi-band slot antenna, a reflector and a feed line connector is described. The multi-band slot antenna has slot openings in a second portion of conductive material disposed on a second side of the user device and is operable to radiate electromagnetic energy. The reflector is additional conductive material disposed on the second side and is operable to reflect a majority of the radiated electromagnetic energy away from the user device in a first direction.
