Claim:
1. A wearable apparatus comprising: a transceiver; an electrically conductive housing, the transceiver carried in the electrically conductive housing, the electrically conductive housing including at least a first wearable apparatus carrier device connection area; a radiating element connected to the electrically conductive housing, the radiating element coupled to a feed point that is coupled to the transceiver, and the radiating element configured to radiate radio frequency signals wherein the radiating element forms at least a portion of a slot antenna and wherein a slot of the slot antenna is defined by an electrically conductive element within the conductive housing and the electrically conductive housing; a current isolation element; and an electrically conductive wearable apparatus carrier device coupled to the electrically conductive housing via the current isolation element, where the current isolation element provides electrical isolation between the electrically conductive wearable apparatus carrier device and the radiating element.
