Abstract:
1. An apparatus comprising: a cover defining an exterior surface of the apparatus and including a first conductive cover portion; an antenna, connected to a feed point and configured to operate in at least a first resonant frequency band; a first conductive member positioned between the antenna and the first conductive cover portion; a second conductive member; and wherein the first and second conductive members are configured to couple with the first conductive cover portion, the combination of the first and second conductive members and the first conductive cover portion are operable in a second resonant frequency band, different to the first resonant frequency band and are configured to be contactlessly fed by the antenna, wherein the second conductive member is configured to have an electrical length selectable from a plurality of electrical lengths, wherein the second conductive member comprises a plurality of selectable portions, the plurality of selectable portions providing at least some of the plurality of electrical lengths; and a support member defining an upper surface and a lower surface, the antenna being physically coupled to the lower surface of the support member and the first conductive member being physically coupled to the upper surface of the support member.
