Abstract:
An antenna is provided for a wearable personal computing device, such as a smartwatch. The antenna has a first radiating element and a second radiating element capacitively coupled to each other. The first radiating element is configured to be tunable to a first set of tuning states operating around a first set of resonant frequencies, and the second radiating element is configured to be tunable to a second set of tuning states operating around a second set of resonant frequencies. The antenna is configured to be tuned such that a tuning state from the first set of tuning states of the first radiating element can be combined with a tuning state from the second set of tuning states of the second radiating element to form a composite tuning state of the antenna. The wearable personal computing device has a housing made of a high permittivity material.
