Abstract:
1. A portable electronic device including: an antenna having a first surface and a second surface arranged parallel to the first surface, the antenna also having a major planar cross-section parallel to the first surface; a power transfer coil arranged to receive energy transmitted through a power transfer surface that is external to the portable electronic device, the power transfer coil having windings parallel to a coil plane, the power transfer coil arranged such that the received energy passes through the power transfer coil in a direction substantially perpendicular to the coil plane and does not flow vertically into the major planar cross-section, the power transfer coil further arranged such that the major planar cross-section is substantially perpendicular to the coil plane; and a signal shield arranged between the antenna and the power transfer coil such that the major planar cross-section overlaps the signal shield, the signal shield further arranged parallel to the power transfer coil and perpendicular to the major planar cross-section.
