Description:
FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE 
     The present disclosure generally relates to information handling systems, and more particularly relates to an information handling system including an antenna within an antenna cavity with the antenna cavity having a first and second aperture formed within the chassis of the information handling system. 
     BACKGROUND 
     As the value and use of information continues to increase, individuals and businesses seek additional ways to process and store information. One option available to users is information handling systems. An information handling system generally processes, compiles, stores, and/or communicates information or data for business, personal, or other purposes thereby allowing users to take advantage of the value of the information. Because technology and information handling purposes and requirements vary between different users or applications, information handling systems may also vary regarding what information is handled, how the information is handled, how much information is processed, stored, or communicated, and how quickly and efficiently the information may be processed, stored, or communicated. The variations in information handling systems allow for information handling systems to be general or configured for a specific user or specific use such as financial transaction processing, airline reservations, enterprise data storage, or global communications. In addition, information handling systems may include a variety of hardware and software components that may process, store, and communicate information and may include one or more computer systems, data storage systems, and networking systems. 
     For purposes of this disclosure, an information handling system may include any instrumentality or aggregate of instrumentalities operable to compute, calculate, determine, classify, process, transmit, receive, retrieve, originate, switch, store, display, communicate, manifest, detect, record, reproduce, handle, or utilize any form of information, intelligence, or data for business, scientific, control, or other purposes. For example, an information handling system may be a personal computer (e.g., desktop or laptop), tablet computer, mobile device (e.g., personal digital assistant (PDA) or smart phone), server (e.g., blade server or rack server), a network storage device, or any other suitable device and may vary in size, shape, performance, functionality, and price. The information handling system may include random access memory (RAM), one or more processing resources such as a central processing unit (CPU) or hardware or software control logic, ROM, and/or other types of nonvolatile memory. Additional components of the information handling system may include one or more disk drives, one or more network ports for communicating with external devices as well as various input and output (I/O) devices, such as a keyboard, a mouse, touchscreen and/or a video display. The information handling system may also include one or more buses operable to transmit communications between the various hardware components. The information handling system may also include telecommunication, network communication, and video communication capabilities. The information handling system may also include one or more buses operable to transmit communications between the various hardware components. The information handling system may also include telecommunication, network communication, and video communication capabilities. Information handling system chassis parts may include case portions such as for a laptop information handling system including the C-cover over components designed with a metal structure. The information handling system may be configurable such that the information handling system may alter a pattern of electromagnetic (EM) radiation emitted by an antenna of the information handling system.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS 
     The following description in combination with the Figures is provided to assist in understanding the teachings disclosed herein. The description is focused on specific implementations and embodiments of the teachings, and is provided to assist in describing the teachings. This focus should not be interpreted as a limitation on the scope or applicability of the teachings. 
     For aesthetic, strength, and performance reasons, information handling system chassis parts are more commonly designed with a metal structure. In an embodiment, a laptop information handling system may include a plurality of covers for the interior components of the information handling system. For example, a small form factor case may include an “A-cover” which serves as a back cover for a display housing and a “B-cover” which may serve as the bezel, if any, and a display screen of the convertible laptop information handling system in an embodiment. In a further embodiment, the laptop information handling system case may include a “C-cover” housing a keyboard, touchpad, and any cover in which these components are set and a “D-cover” base housing for the information handling system. In order to increase the utility of these lighter, thinner, and more streamlined devices, the use of full metal portions for the outer covers of the display and base housing (e.g. the A-cover and the D-cover) is desirable for strength as well as aesthetic reasons. At the same time, the demands for wireless operation also increase. This demand for wireless operations may include the addition of many simultaneously operating radiofrequency systems, the addition of more antennas, and/or the utilization of various antenna types. However, the thinner and more streamlined devices have fewer locations and area available for mounting radiofrequency transmitters on these mobile information handling systems. Thus, a streamlined, full metal chassis capable of meeting the increasing wireless operation demands is needed. 
     Previous information handling systems would address these competing needs by providing for cutout portions of a metal outer chassis cover filled with plastic behind which radio transmitters would be mounted. The cutouts to accommodate radio frequency (RF) transmitters were often aesthetically undesirable and required additional plastic components to cover the cutout, thus failing to fully meet the streamlining needs. The plastic components added a component to be manufactured and were required to be seamlessly integrated into an otherwise smooth metal chassis cover. Further, the plastic portions included may be more expensive to machine than aluminum alloy metals, and may require intricate multi-step processes for integrating the metal and plastic parts into a single chassis. This requirement to incorporate the plastic parts into the chassis could require difficult and expensive processes to manufacture with fewer desirable results. 
     In addition, in the case of a convertible laptop information handling system, 360-degree configurability may be a feature available to a user during use. Thus, often an antenna such as an aperture antenna system would be located at the top (e.g. “A-cover”) with a plastic antenna window in a metal chassis cover to radiate in 360-degree mode (such as closed mode), or at the bottom (e.g. “D-cover”) to radiate in 360-degree mode (such as tablet mode). Such a configuration could make the display panel housing (e.g. “A-cover”) or the base panel housing (e.g. “D-cover”) thicker, to accommodate antennas circuitry, or cables behind the plastic panel at the top (or bottom) of either housing. Overall, a thicker convertible laptop information handling system may result, thus failing to meet the streamlining needs. A solution is needed that does not increase the thickness of the metal chassis, and does not require additional components and manufacturing steps while providing for alternative locations for antenna placement. 
     Embodiments of the present disclosure may decrease the complexity and cost of creating chassis for information handling systems by forming the outer chassis (e.g. the A-cover and the D-cover) entirely of metal and placing the antenna at a location within a D-cover and C-cover assembly. This placement of the antenna into the D-cover and C-cover assembly may also include the formation of a first antenna aperture through the D-cover and a second antenna aperture through the C-cover. A cavity into which the antenna is placed may include a grounding wall that operatively couples currents associated with the antenna such that the currents travel from the first aperture to the second aperture causing emitted electromagnetic radiation to be emitted towards the second aperture and, generally, out of the C-cover. This provides for a system that may re-direct antenna transmissions above the transmission horizon which may be more effective for base stations located in elevated places. In some embodiments, the configuration of the information handling system may cause the second aperture to direct the electromagnetic radiation in the form of radio frequencies out of the C-cover and above horizon as the information handling system is placed in a predetermined configuration. In some embodiments, WiFi access points may often be located along a ceiling or similar location. Additionally, regardless of the orientation of the information handling system, the antenna receipt and transmission strength may remain constant with multiple apertures. 
     The metal chassis in embodiments described herein may include a hinge operably connecting the “A-cover” to the “D-cover” such that the keyboard and touchpad enclosed within the “C-cover” and attached to the “D-cover” may be placed in a plurality of configurations with respect to the digital display enclosed within the “B-cover” and attached to the “A-cover.” The plurality of configurations may include, but may not be limited to, an open configuration in which the “A-cover” is oriented at a right or obtuse angle from the “D-cover” (similar to an open laptop computer), a closed configuration in which the “A-cover” lies substantially parallel to the “D-cover” (similar to a closed laptop computer), a tablet configuration in which the “A-cover” is rotated nearly 360 degrees from its closed orientation (placing the “D-cover” directly beneath the “A-cover,” such that the user can interact with the digital display enclosed within the “B-cover”), and an easel configuration (i.e.,  FIG. 3C ) in which the C-cover is placed on a working surface with the D-cover facing upwards and the B-cover facing a user. Despite these different configurations, however, the antenna, its cavities, and the first and second apertures provides for the streamlining of the information handling system without compromising the ability of the antenna to transmit and receive data from and to the information handling system. 
     Manufacture of embodiments of the present disclosure may involve fewer extraneous parts than previous chassis by forming the exterior or outer portions of the information handling system, including the bottom portion of the “D-cover”, the “C-cover”, the “B-cover,” and the “A-cover,” entirely from metal. In order to allow for manufacture of fully metallic outer chassis, embodiments of the present disclosure form the full form factor case enclosing the information handling system such that one or more transmitting antennas within the antenna cavity integrated into the base metal chassis (i.e., “D-cover”) of the information handling system. 
     The transmitting antennas of embodiments of the present disclosure may include one or more aperture antennas. In embodiments presented herein, the aperture antennas may be cavity backed. Aperture antennas in embodiments of the present disclosure may be a highly effective improvement on wireless antennas employed in previous information handling systems. In embodiments of the present disclosure, a first and second antenna aperture or slot may be formed through the D-cover and C-cover respectively. In the embodiments presented herein, the first and second apertures may work in coordination with a grounded cavity to provide direction transmissions or receptions between the two apertures. These apertures associated with the antenna in embodiments of the present disclosure may then be operably connected to a grounding wall such that the apertures create a reduction in impedance between the first and second aperture. This low impedance path enables the antenna currents from the first aperture to travel to or through the second aperture thereby exciting the second aperture at the C-cover causing the electromagnetic (EM) pattern to tilt from the bottom of the D-cover towards the horizon and away from the information handling system. The second aperture may direct EM radiation out of the C-cover and above horizon when the information handling system is place in predetermined configurations such as an open configuration. An angling and distance between the first aperture and the second aperture, as well as the dimension of the first and second apertures provide for desired directionality of the transmission and reception of EM radiation via the C-cover. 
     Examples are set forth below with respect to particular aspects of an information handling system including case portions such as for a laptop information handling system including the chassis components designed with a fully metal structure and configurable such that the information handling system may operate in any of several usage mode configurations.

It is understood that any number of available channels may be available under the 5 GHz shared communication frequency band. WLAN, for example, may also operate at a 2.4 GHz band. WWAN may operate in a number of bands, some of which are propriety but may include a wireless communication frequency band at approximately 2.5 GHz band for example. In additional embodiments, WWAN carrier licensed bands may operate at frequency bands of approximately 700 MHz, 800 MHz, 1900 MHz, or 1700/2100 MHz for example as well. In the embodiment, mobile information handling system  100  includes both unlicensed wireless radio frequency communication capabilities as well as licensed wireless radio frequency communication capabilities. For example, licensed wireless radio frequency communication capabilities may be available via a subscriber carrier wireless service.

     The wireless adapter  120  can represent an add-in card, wireless network interface module that is integrated with a main board of the information handling system or integrated with another wireless network interface capability, or any combination thereof. In an embodiment the wireless adapter  120  may include one or more radio frequency subsystems  130  including transmitters and wireless controllers such as wireless module subsystems for connecting via a multitude of wireless links under a variety of protocols. In an embodiment, an information handling system may have an antenna system transmitter  132  for 5G small cell WWAN, Wi-Fi WLAN or WiGig connectivity and one or more additional antenna system transmitters  132  for macro-cellular communication.

For example, the wireless controller of a radio frequency subsystem  130  may manage detecting and measuring received signal strength levels, bit error rates, signal to noise ratios, latencies, power delay profile, delay spread, and other metrics relating to signal quality and strength. Such detected and measured aspects of wireless links, such as WLAN links operating on one or more antenna systems  132 , may be used by the antenna adaptation controller to adapt the antenna systems  132  according to an antenna adaptation network according to various embodiments herein. In one embodiment, a wireless controller of a wireless interface adapter  120  may manage one or more radio frequency subsystems  130 .

       FIG. 2  illustrates a network  200  that can include one or more information handling systems  210 ,  220 ,  230 . In a particular embodiment, network  200  includes networked mobile information handling systems  210 ,  220 , and  230 , wireless network access points, and multiple wireless connection link options. A variety of additional computing resources of network  200  may include client mobile information handling systems, data processing servers, network storage devices, local and wide area networks, or other resources as needed or desired. As partially depicted, systems  210 ,  220 , and  230  may be a laptop computer, tablet computer, 360-degree convertible systems, wearable computing devices, or a smart phone device. These mobile information handling systems  210 ,  220 , and  230 , may access a wireless local network  240 , or they may access a macro-cellular network  250 . For example, the wireless local network  240  may be the wireless local area network (WLAN), a wireless personal area network (WPAN), or a wireless wide area network (WWAN). In an embodiment, LTE-LAA WWAN may operate with a small-cell WWAN wireless access point option. 
     Since WPAN or Wi-Fi Direct Connection  248  and WWAN networks can functionally operate similar to WLANs, they may be considered as wireless local area networks (WLANs) for purposes herein. Components of a WLAN may be connected by wireline or Ethernet connections to a wider external network. For example, wireless network access points may be connected to a wireless network controller and an Ethernet switch. Wireless communications across wireless local network  240  may be via standard protocols such as IEEE 802.11 Wi-Fi, IEEE 802.11ad WiGig, IEEE 802.15 WPAN, or emerging 5G small cell WWAN communications such as eNodeB, or similar wireless network protocols. Alternatively, other available wireless links within network  200  may include macro-cellular connections  250  via one or more service providers  260  and  270 . Service provider macro-cellular connections may include 2G standards such as GSM, 2.5G standards such as GSM EDGE and GPRS, 3G standards such as W-CDMA/UMTS and CDMA 2000, 4G standards, or emerging 5G standards including WiMAX, LTE, and LTE Advanced, LTE-LAA, small cell WWAN, and the like. 
     Wireless local network  240  and macro-cellular network  250  may include a variety of licensed, unlicensed or shared communication frequency bands as well as a variety of wireless protocol technologies ranging from those operating in macrocells, small cells, picocells, or femtocells. 
     In some embodiments according to the present disclosure, a networked mobile information handling system  210 ,  220 , or  230  may have a plurality of wireless network interface systems capable of transmitting simultaneously within a shared communication frequency band. That communication within a shared communication frequency band may be sourced from different protocols on parallel wireless network interface systems or from a single wireless network interface system capable of transmitting and receiving from multiple protocols. Similarly, a single antenna or plural antennas may be used on each of the wireless communication devices. Example competing protocols may be local wireless network access protocols such as Wi-Fi/WLAN, WiGig, and small cell WWAN in an unlicensed, shared communication frequency band. Example communication frequency bands may include unlicensed 5 GHz frequency bands, 2.4 GHz frequency bands, or 3.5 GHz conditional shared communication frequency bands under FCC Part 96. Wi-Fi ISM frequency bands that could be subject to sharing include 2.4 GHz, 60 GHz, 900 MHz or similar bands. Within local portion of wireless network  250  access points for Wi-Fi or WiGig as well as small cell WWAN connectivity may be available in emerging 5G technology. This may create situations where a plurality of antenna systems are operating on a mobile information handling system  210 ,  220  or  230  via concurrent communication wireless links on both WLAN and WWAN and which may operate within the same, adjacent, or otherwise interfering communication frequency bands. The antenna may be a transmitting antenna that includes high-band, medium-band, low-band, and unlicensed band transmitting antennas. Alternatively, embodiments may include a single transceiving antenna capable of receiving and transmitting, and/or more than one transceiving antennas.

     The voice and packet core network  280  may contain externally accessible computing resources and connect to a remote data center  286 . The voice and packet core network  280  may contain multiple intermediate web servers or other locations with accessible data (not shown). The voice and packet core network  280  may also connect to other wireless networks similar to  240  or  250  and additional mobile information handling systems such as  210 ,  220 ,  230  or similar connected to those additional wireless networks. Connection  282  between the wireless network  240  and remote data center  286  or connection to other additional wireless networks may be via Ethernet or another similar connection to the world-wide-web, a WAN, a LAN, another WLAN, or other network structure. Such a connection  282  may be made via a WLAN access point/Ethernet switch to the external network and be a backhaul connection. The access point may be connected to one or more wireless access points in the WLAN before connecting directly to a mobile information handling system or may connect directly to one or more mobile information handling systems  210 ,  220 , and  230 . Alternatively, mobile information handling systems  210 ,  220 , and  230  may connect to the external network via base station locations at service providers such as  260  and  270 . These service provider locations may be network connected via backhaul connectivity through the voice and packet core network  280 . 
     Remote data centers may include web servers or resources within a cloud environment that operate via the voice and packet core  280  or other wider internet connectivity. For example, remote data centers can include additional information handling systems, data processing servers, network storage devices, local and wide area networks, or other resources along with an addition to those shown in  FIG. 2 . Having such remote capabilities may permit fewer resources to be maintained at the mobile information handling systems  210 ,  220 , and  230  allowing streamlining and efficiency within those devices. Similarly, remote data center permits fewer resources to be maintained in other parts of network  200 . 
     In an embodiment, the cloud or remote data center or networked server may run hosted applications for systems  210 ,  220 , and  230 . For example, remote data center, networked server, or some combination of both may operate some or all of an antenna system as disclosed in the present disclosure. The cloud or remote data center or networked server may run hosted applications for systems  210 ,  220 , and  230  by establishing a virtual machine application executing software to manage applications hosted at the remote data center in an embodiment. Mobile information handling systems  210 ,  220 , and  230  are adapted to run one or more applications locally, and to have hosted applications run in association with the local applications at remote data center or networked servers. For example, mobile information handling systems  210 ,  220 , and  230  may operate some or all of the antenna system or software applications utilizing the wireless links, including a concurrent wireless links, in some embodiments. The virtual machine application may serve one or more applications to each of mobile information handling system  210 ,  220 , and  230 . Thus, as illustrated, information handling systems  210 ,  220 , and  230  may be running applications locally while requesting data objects related to those applications from the remote data center via wireless network. In another embodiment, an electronic mail client application may run locally at system  210 . The electronic mail client application may be associated with a host application that represents an electronic mail server. In another embodiment, a data storage client application may run on system  220 . It may be associated with a host application running at a remote data center that represents a Sharepoint data storage server. In a further embodiment, a web browser application may be operating at system  230 . The web browser application may request web data from a host application that represents a hosted website and associated applications running at a remote data center. 
     Although connections  215 ,  225 , and  235  are shown connecting wireless adapters of mobile information handling systems  210 ,  220 , and  230  to wireless networks  240  or  250 , a variety of wireless links are contemplated. Wireless communication may link through a wireless access point (Wi-Fi or WiGig), through unlicensed WWAN small cell base stations such as in network  240  or through a service provider tower such as that shown with service provider A  260  or service provider B  270  and in network  250 . In other aspects, mobile information handling systems  210 ,  220 , and  230  may communicate intra-device via  248  when one or more of the mobile information handling systems  210 ,  220 , and  230  are set to act as an access point or even potentially an WWAN connection via small cell communication on licensed or unlicensed WWAN connections. For example, one of mobile information handling systems  210 ,  220 , and  230  may serve as a Wi-Fi hotspot in an embodiment. Concurrent wireless links to information handling systems  210 ,  220 , and  230  may be connected via any access points including other mobile information handling systems as illustrated in  FIG. 2 . 
       FIG. 3A  is a graphical illustration of a metal chassis including a base chassis and lid chassis placed in the near-closed configuration according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The near-closed configuration is shown to provide a view of one embodiment of a first aperture  316  and of a second aperture  320  location. The metal chassis  300  in an embodiment may comprise an outer metal case or shell of an information handling system such as a tablet device, laptop, or other mobile information handling system. As shown in  FIG. 3A , the metal chassis  300 , in an embodiment, may further include a plurality of chassis or cases. For example, the metal chassis  300  may further include the A-cover  302  functioning to enclose a portion of the information handling system. As another embodiment, the metal chassis  300 , in an embodiment, may further include a D-cover  304  functioning to enclose another portion of the information handling system which may include a transmitting/receiving antenna according to the embodiments described herein. As shown in  FIG. 3A , when placed in a closed configuration, the A-cover  302  forms a top outer protective shell, or a portion of a lid for the information handling system, while the D-cover  304  forms a bottom outer protective shell, or a portion of a base. As also can be seen in  FIG. 3A , in the closed configuration, the A-cover  302  and the D-cover  304  are substantially parallel to one another. 
     In an embodiment, the A-cover  302  may be movably connected to a back edge  312  of the D-cover  314  via one or more hinges  310 . The A-cover  302  may be operably connected to the one or more hinges  310  is disposed between the A-cover  302  and the one or more hinges  310 , in an embodiment. The placement of the hinges  310  may vary depending on the type of hinge used as well as any cosmetic or mechanical requirements used to couple the A-cover and its assembly to the D-cover and its assembly. As described herein, a first aperture  316  is formed into the D-cover  304  while a second aperture  320  is formed through the C-cover. In the embodiments presented herein, the first aperture  316  may be formed at an angle downward relative to the second aperture  320  that this formed up through the C-cover. These apertures  316 ,  320  may be backed with an antenna cavity as described herein. 
       FIG. 3B  is a graphical illustration of a metal chassis  300  including a base chassis and lid chassis placed in the open configuration according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The metal chassis  300  in an embodiment may further comprise an outer metal case or shell of an information handling system for housing internal components of the information handling system, such as a video display, a cursor control device, and an alpha numeric input device. The open configuration of  FIG. 3B  shows another embodiment of a location for the first aperture  316  and second aperture  320 . It is understood that the first aperture  316  and the aperture  320  may be located on any side of the C-cover  308  and D-cover  304 . As shown in  FIG. 3B , the metal chassis  300  may further include the B-cover  306  functioning to enclose the video or digital display device with the A-cover described herein. In this embodiment, the B-cover  306  may not include a bezel surrounding a screen or other display device as described herein. As described herein, the physical footprint of the video display may be increased so as to increase the usability and functionality of the information handling system. In some embodiments, the increase in the size of the video display (i.e., thereby eliminating the bezel or significantly decreasing the size of the bezel) may be motivated by industry standards based on user desirability in larger screens to provide more viewable space and functionality of the information handling system. As described herein, as the size of the video display increases, the placement of an antenna associated with the antenna systems within the A-cover/B-cover assembly may be limited if not completely eliminated. As such, the antenna may be placed within the D-cover  304 /C-cover  308  assembly according to any embodiment described herein. 
     In the embodiments presented and as described herein, the metal chassis  300  may further include the C-cover  308  functioning to enclose the cursor control device and/or the keyboard  112  acting as an alphanumeric input device. The A-cover  302  and the B-cover  306  may be joined together in an embodiment to form a fully enclosed lid chassis, while the C-cover  308  and the D-cover  304  may be joined together to forma fully enclosed base chassis. Taking the closed configuration as a reference position of the lid chassis including the A-cover and the B-cover  306  and the base chassis including the C-cover  308  and the D-cover  304 , the lid chassis including the A-cover  302  and the B-cover  306  may be rotated away from the base chassis including the C-cover  308  and the D-cover  304 . For example, as shown in  FIG. 3B , when placed in the open configuration, the lid chassis including the A-cover  302  and the B-cover  306  may be rotated away from the C-cover  308  and placed at an angle less than 180 degrees from the base chassis including the C-cover  308  and the D-cover  304 , such that a user may view the video display within the B-cover  306  and interact with the cursor control device and/or keyboard  112  within the C-cover  308 . According to any embodiment presented herein, an antenna is placed within a cavity formed within the base chassis including the C-cover  308  and the D-cover  304  with a first aperture  316  formed through the D-cover  304  and a second aperture formed through the C-cover  308  (shown in more detail in  FIGS. 3D, 3E, and 3F ). In any embodiment, the first aperture  316  is sized to operate at a frequency of 2.4 GHz and 5.1 GHz. The antenna formed within the cavity may be excited at 5.8 GHz with a main lobe of the radio frequency (RF) energy pointed to a bottom surface of the D-cover  304 . Additionally, in any embodiment presented herein, the information handling system may include a second aperture  320  formed through the C-cover  308  and sized to operate in tandem with the first aperture  316  so as to be tuned to a location and relative angle between the first aperture  316  and second aperture  320 . Because the first aperture  316  and second aperture  320  share a common electrical ground between them, a low impedance path is formed between the first aperture  316  and second aperture  320  so as to enable any currents associated with the antenna at the first aperture  316  to travel or radiate upwards to and through the second aperture  320 . This, in turn, causes the electrical currents to pass the signal through to the second aperture  320  causes any RF EM radiation to exit the grounded antenna cavity containing the antenna via the second aperture  320 . As such, instead of the main lobe of the RF EM radiation pointing towards the bottom of the D-cover  304  via only the first aperture  316 , the RF EM radiation is emitted from the C-cover  308  above the horizon as well. 
       FIG. 3C  is a graphical illustration of a metal chassis including a base chassis and lid chassis placed in the easel configuration according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in  FIG. 3C , the lid chassis including the A-cover and the B-cover  306  may be joined to the base chassis including the C-cover and the D-cover  304  via one or more hinges  310 . The hinge  310  in an embodiment may be capable of placing the lid chassis and base chassis in a plurality of positional configurations with respect to one another, including, but not limited to the open (i.e., shown in  FIG. 3B ), closed, easel (i.e.,  FIG. 3C ) or even tablet configurations. Taking the closed configuration as a reference position of the lid chassis including the A-cover and the B-cover  306  and the base chassis including the C-cover and the D-cover  304 , the hinge  310  may allow for a 180-degree or greater rotation of the lid chassis to place the lid chassis and base chassis in the tablet configuration with the A-cover  302  and D-cover  304  adjacent, for example. As shown in  FIG. 3C , the lid chassis including the A-cover  302  and the B-cover  306  in an embodiment may rotate greater than 180-degrees and up to nearly 360-degrees such that the video display of the B-cover  306  may face toward the user and the keyboard of the C-cover  308  may face away from the user. If the lid chassis including the A-cover and the B-cover  306  are rotated to almost 360-degrees from the closed configuration, the A-cover  302  may abut the D-cover  304  for the closed configuration. 
     As described herein, a first aperture  316  is formed into the D-cover  304  while a second aperture  320  is formed through the C-cover. In the embodiments presented herein, the first aperture  316  may be formed at an angle to the side or downward relative to the second aperture  320  that this formed up through the C-cover. These apertures  316 ,  320  may be backed with an antenna cavity as described herein. During operation of the information handling system, an antenna within the antenna cavity housing the antenna may generate an RF signal directed towards the bottom of the D-cover  304 . In order to tilt the direction of the generate RF signal from the bottom of the D-cover  304  to above the horizon, the second aperture  320  is used. The second aperture  320  and the first aperture  316  are grounded to a common ground such as a grounding wall within the antenna cavity. This produces a low impedance path form the first aperture  316  to the second aperture  320  enabling the currents produced by the antenna to migrate away from the first aperture  316  to the second aperture  320  causing the RF signal to exit from the second aperture  320 . This produces a new RF signal pattern emitted by the antenna to be created; a pattern that includes a main lobe directed towards the horizon up and away from the information handling system. 
       FIG. 3D  is a graphical illustration of an antenna  318  within an antenna cavity  335  and a first aperture  316  formed through the D-cover according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.  FIG. 3D  shows the first aperture  316  of the antenna cavity  335  in an embodiment along an edge of the bottom portion of the D-cover  304 . The aperture  316  (and, accordingly, the antenna cavity  335 ) may be formed along any portion of the D-cover  304  such as on a side face of the D-cover  304  a side edge of the D-cover  304 , or any other location of the D-cover  304 . As shown in  FIG. 3D , the antenna cavity  335  is formed on a side surface of the D-cover  304  at a location where the bottom of the D-cover  304  slopes up towards an interfacing location between the C-cover  308  and D-cover  304 . 
     In an embodiment, a grounding wall may be used to ground the first aperture  316  to the chassis as well as a second aperture (not shown in  FIG. 3D ). The grounding wall may be used to create an antenna cavity  335  with respect to the first aperture  316 , but may also be used to insulate the antenna  318  within the antenna cavity  335  from electromagnetic noise originating from outside of the antenna cavity  335 . As described herein, the noise may originate from any device also operatively coupled to the information handling system, any device near the information handling device, as well as from operation of the antenna  318  itself. Because the chassis of the information handling system is metal, operation of the antenna  318  via emissions of electromagnetic (EM) waves (i.e., RF signals at 2.4 GHz for example) causes those EM waves to resonate with the metal chassis causing such noise. In order to avoid this phenomenon, the antenna cavity  335  includes the grounding wall described herein in order to insulate the antenna cavity  335  and its antenna  318  from that noise. 
     In an embodiment, the antenna cavity  335 , the chassis of the information handling system, and/or the grounding wall may form a cavity resonator within the antenna cavity  335 . A cavity resonator is a hollow closed-in conductor such as a metal cavity, in this embodiment, that contains EM waves (i.e., RF EM waves) reflecting back and forth between the cavity&#39;s walls. When the antenna  318  emits a RF signal at one of the antenna cavity&#39;s  335  resonant frequencies (i.e., a fundamental frequency at 2.4 GHz or any harmonic frequency of 2.4 GHz such as 5.1 GHz), any oppositely moving waves form standing waves within the antenna cavity  335 . In this embodiment, however, the resonating frequencies may be allowed to exit the cavity resonator via the first aperture  316 . At the edges created by the first aperture  316 , the signal transmission may occur thereby sending the EM RF waves out and away from the information handling system. The size and shape of the first aperture  316  of the antenna cavity  335  may be defined by the placement of any walls formed by the D-cover  304  and any grounding wall. In an embodiment, dimensions of the first aperture  316  may be dependent on the frequency range to be emitted by the antenna  318  and which frequencies the wireless interface adapter is to be operated at. In an embodiment, a length of the first aperture  316  may be between 45 and 55 mm. In an embodiment, the length of the first aperture  316  may be 50 mm. During operation, due to the application of the RF radiation from the antenna  318 , current is forced along an edge of the first aperture  316  causing radiation to be emitted from the edges of the first aperture  316  at the target frequency (i.e., ˜2.4 GHz or harmonics thereof). Any target frequency, however, is emitted from the edges of the first aperture  316  when the dimension of the first aperture  316  is formed correctly. In any embodiment, the length of the first aperture  316  is ½ of the wavelength of the target frequency. 
     In an embodiment, the antenna  318  may be a monopole antenna. In some embodiments, the monopole antenna  318  may include a metal conducting strip, excited by an RF signal source such as from the wireless adapter described herein. A length of the conductor may be designed to be a quarter of the wavelength to a fundamental operating frequency of the aperture. In an embodiment, the monopole antenna may be suspended within the cavity at a certain distance from the aperture to effectively couple the currents induced by the RF signal produced by the monopole antenna  318 . In this embodiment, the currents may be coupled onto the aperture capacitively over the air to excite the fundamental resonant frequency of the aperture. Further the conductor carrying the RF signal from the source could be a transmission line or a shielded RF cable with a characteristic impedance of 50 ohms (for example, same as the source). To ensure effective impedance transfer, the transmission line or shielded RF cable may be attached to one of the grounding walls of the resonant chamber to short any leakage currents present on the surface of the cable in order to prevent the cable from re-radiating inside the chamber. Re-resonance of the cable within the chamber could create a cavity mode local to the cable and wall that could contain some or all of the electromagnetic energy of the signal thereby preventing that energy from being fully re-radiated and impairing the wireless performance of the information handling system. 
     The EM RF waves emitted by the monopole antenna  318  within the antenna cavity  335  may be conducted via the first aperture  316  and emitted from the information handling system as described herein (i.e., via the second aperture not shown). Because, in this embodiment, the antenna  318  is a monopole antenna, the length of the monopole antenna  318  may be ¼ of the wavelength at which the antenna  318  is to operate. Consequently, the length of the antenna  318  and the size of the first aperture  316  of the antenna cavity  335  may be dependent on the wavelengths used by the information handling system as well as any governmental or industry standards under which the information handling system is to be operated. In an embodiment, the monopole antenna  318  with first aperture  316  may be sized to transmit and receive EM RF frequencies at or around 5.5 GHz. In an embodiment, the monopole antenna  318  with first antenna aperture  316  may be sized to transmit and receive EM RF frequencies at or around any harmonic frequencies at or around 2.4 GHz including, for example, 5.1 GHz. In another aspect, second aperture  320  may also be sized to transmit EM RF frequencies generated by monopole antenna element  318  and aperture  316  as described from antenna cavity  335 . Second aperture  320  may allow EM RF frequencies to pass through the C-cover  306  from the antenna cavity  335  in example embodiments. In an embodiment, antenna cavity  335  and apertures  316  and  320  may be used to steer the EM RF signal of the antenna element  318  out of the antenna cavity  335  and out of either aperture of the antenna cavity  335 . 
     In an embodiment, the antenna cavity  335  may include a parasitic element or other type of coupled device used to alter the pattern of the EM RF waves emitted by the antenna  318 . The parasitic element may be grounded to a grounding wall. In an embodiment, the parasitic element may be operatively coupled to a variable impedance termination. In some embodiments, the parasitic element may make other frequency bands available. In other embodiments, using a parasitic element with a variable impedance termination and cause a shift of transmission pattern to create higher order resonant modes for increased usability of the antenna system with a wider range of global EM RF bands in the 5 GHz range. Global band coverage may vary by jurisdiction, protocol, or location such that providing for embodiments of the presently-disclosed antenna system with parasitic elements that may be utilized to provide multiple possible resonant modes allowing for operation in a broader global 5 GHz band coverage. The antenna adaptation controller  134  may control this tuning for the antenna ports for the antenna  318  to alter RF transmission frequencies and pattern potentially improve RSSI, SNR, MCS or other performance factors or adjust according to operating 5 GHz frequencies in some embodiments for various locales. In this embodiment, the parasitic coupling element  350  may create a plurality of higher order resonant modes to increase the global band coverage of the 5 GHz-operated antenna element. In an example embodiment, three resonant modes of the 5 GHz antenna element may be realized through the use of the parasitic coupling element  350 . First, the monopole antenna element  318  may be excited to operate at 5 GHz. Second, even harmonics of a 2.4 GHz-sized aperture that falls into 5 GHz may be implemented. Third, the parasitic coupling element  350  may resonate at a higher end of a 5 GHz frequency. These three modes are designed to operate such that the frequencies bond constructively to create the wide band 5G coverage while limiting frequency overlapping and providing for increased global band coverage at 5 GHz. 
       FIG. 3E  is another graphical illustration of a second aperture  320  containing the antenna  318  within the antenna cavity  335 , the second aperture  320  formed in the C-cover  308  according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Even further,  FIG. 3F  is a close up view of a graphical illustration of a second aperture  320  containing the antenna  318  within an antenna cavity, the second aperture  320  formed in the C-cover  308  according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As described herein, the antenna cavity  335  formed within the C-cover  308  and D-cover  304  assembly may be operatively coupled to a first aperture  316  shown in  FIG. 3D  as well as the second aperture  320  shown here in  FIG. 3E . Similar to the first aperture  316 , the second aperture  320  may be sized to operate a certain frequency or pass certain frequencies transmitted in the first aperture  316  and antenna cavity. 
     In an embodiment, the second aperture  320  may be sized to operate at a frequency of 2.4 GHz or any harmonic thereof. In an embodiment, the width of the second aperture  320  along the side of the information handling system may be 1.5 mm wide in an embodiment. It is understood that any width may be used depending on the frequency bands to be passed or the aesthetic requirements of the second aperture in the C-cover  308 . In example embodiments, the second aperture width may be between 1 and 3 mm wide in example embodiments although wider apertures are contemplated as well. Narrower apertures may also operate when differing bandwidths and frequencies are involved or different geometry of the antenna cavity  335  are deployed in various embodiments as well. In this embodiment the second aperture  320  acts as a resonant aperture allowing an RF signal emitted from the antenna  318  to escape from the antenna cavity  335 . An angular relationship of the second aperture  320  to the antenna  318  may be such so as to avoid the RF signal being blocked from exiting the antenna cavity  335 . Upward transmission from the first antenna aperture  316  into the antenna cavity may be angled to pass through the second antenna aperture  320  in an embodiment. In this way, transmission and reception characteristics may be upward from the C-cover to allow better above-horizon radio frequency directionality in some configurations of the information handling system. 
     In an embodiment, the second aperture  320  may be formed along an edge of the C-cover  308 . In an embodiment, the second aperture  320  may be formed along the edge of the C-cover  308  at a distance  325  away from the side of the information handling system. In this embodiment the distance  325  may be 4 mm. In an embodiment, the distance  325  may be between 3 and 5 mm. Other distances of 325 may be contemplated as well in other embodiments depending on the angle of the first aperture  316 , location of the antenna element  318 , or location of the antenna cavity  335 . The placement of the second aperture  320  relative to the first aperture  316  and/or antenna  318  may be set based on the resonating properties of the antenna cavity  335 , the angle of the first aperture  316  with the cavity  335 , and the placement of the antenna  318  within the antenna cavity  335 . 
     In an embodiment, the second aperture  320  may be formed at a location above the first aperture  316 . According to the embodiment presented in  FIG. 3E  the second aperture  320  is shown within block “A” with the second aperture  320  is in the form of a narrow (for example, 1.5 mm) gap running parallel to an edge of the C-cover  308  and close to a mechanical interface between the C-cover  308  and D-cover  304 . The distance from the edge  325  may depend on the above. 
     Because the second aperture  320  is formed through the C-cover  308 , the second aperture  320  may be exposed to interaction by the user due to the fact that the second aperture  320  is located around an area the user interacts with input devices such as the keyboard, keypad, power button, or other such devices. Unlike the first aperture  316 , the second aperture  320  forms a channel down into the antenna cavity  335  that houses the antenna  318 . The antenna  318  within the antenna cavity  335 , along with other devices within the antenna cavity  335 , may be damaged should dust or other particles fall within the sot defining the second aperture  320 . In order to avoid such damage, the second aperture  320  may be filled with a non-conductive material and/or radio frequency transparent material. This non-conductive material will not affect the EM pattern produced by the currents flowing from the antenna  318  and through the second aperture  320 . In an embodiment, the non-conductive material may be a glass or plastic. In an embodiment the non-conductive material may be a combination (either in heterogenous layering of the materials or homogenous mixtures of the materials) of different materials. In an embodiment, the non-conductive material may be a glass fill with a glass filled or ceramic filled plastic (e.g. glass fill CMF). In any embodiment described herein, the non-conductive material used to fill the second aperture  320  may be chosen based on tactile feel of the material as well as aesthetics associated with that material. In these embodiments, the non-conductive material may be chosen so as to prevent the user from discovering the location of the second aperture  320  thereby preventing a user from tampering with the fill and the second aperture  320 . 
     During operation of the antenna  318 , the antenna  318  may emit a radio frequency signal via application of a current at a voltage set by the wireless interface adapter and or antenna adaption controller described herein in connection with  FIG. 1 . The antenna  318  may operate at 5.8 GHz with a main lobe of the generated RF signal being directed towards the bottom of the D-cover  304 . In order to tilt the direction of the generate RF signal from the bottom of the D-cover  304  to the horizon, the second aperture  320  is used. The second aperture  320  and the first aperture  316  are grounded to a common ground such as a grounding wall within the antenna cavity  335 . This produces a low impedance path form the first aperture  316  to the second aperture  320  enabling the currents produced by the antenna  318  to migrate away from the first aperture  316  to the second aperture  320  causing the RF signal to exit from the cavity  335  via the second aperture  320 . This produces a new RF signal pattern emitted by the antenna  318  to be created; a pattern that includes a main lobe directed towards the horizon up and away from the information handling system. 
       FIG. 3G  is a cut-out graphical illustration of a first and second aperture  320  formed in a D-cover  304  and C-cover  308 , respectively, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.  FIG. 3G  shows the D-cover  304  and C-cover  308  forming the antenna cavity  335  due to the metal walls of the D-cover  304  and C-cover  308  as well as through the use of a grounding wall  330 . The grounding wall  330  may act as a part of the antenna cavity  335  that reflects the radio waves from the antenna  318  so as to develop certain characteristics of the antenna  318  such as gain in the signal emitted by the antenna  318 . In the present disclosure, the grounding wall  330  may ground both the first aperture  316  and second aperture  320  forming a resonant cavity  335  and a low impedance path to the second aperture  320 . As shown in  FIG. 3G , the D-cover  304 , C-cover  308 , and grounding wall  330  may create the resonant cavity that allows standing waves of a target frequency to resonate within the antenna cavity  335  in order to store the RF EM energy therein. 
     In an embodiment, the antenna  318  may be a monopole antenna that has a length of a quarter of the target frequency (i.e., a quarter length of 5.8 GHz or its harmonics). As shown in  FIG. 3G , the antenna  318  is placed close to the first aperture  316  and second aperture  320 : i.e., further away from the grounding wall  330  than from the first aperture  316  and second aperture  320 . By placing the antenna  318  closer to the first aperture  316 , currents inducted by the antenna  318  are transferred through strong capacitive coupling, resulting in an improved gain of the fundamental resonant frequency of the first aperture. Additionally, by placing the antenna  318  closer to the first aperture  316  improves antenna impedance match via the added capacitance contributed by the gap or spacing between the antenna  318  closer to the first aperture  316 . Accordingly, the second aperture  320  may be placed in the C-cover above the first aperture  316  so as to be placed in front of the internal aperture transmission zone of the first aperture  316  thereby preventing any destructive interference created by any waves redirected to the second aperture  320  from being out of phase. 
     Because the antenna  318  is placed within an antenna cavity  335  formed within the C-cover  308  and D-cover  304  assembly, the information handling system may include a relatively larger video display at the A-cover and B-cover assembly with a narrower bezel than could be realized if the antenna  318  was placed within the A-cover and B-cover assembly. Because the antenna  318  is placed within the metal C-cover  308  and D-cover  304 , a dual aperture system may be formed so as to redirect a RF EM pattern towards the second aperture  320  as described herein. The ground path created by a grounding wall  330  within the antenna cavity  335  causes a reduced impedance between the first aperture  316  and second aperture  320  causing the RF EM pattern to be tilted towards the horizon and away from the top of the C-cover  308 . This allows for relatively better wireless performance especially with communications with access points above the horizon. Additionally, the redirection of the RF EM pattern towards to the horizon prevents a user&#39;s body (i.e., a user&#39;s lap) from absorbing those EM waves emitted by the antenna  318  thereby complying, in some embodiments, with government mandated specific absorption rates (SAR). Additionally, the grounding wall  330  placed electrically between the first aperture  316  and second aperture  320  allows for the tuning of the second aperture  320  to operate in tandem with the first aperture  316 . 
     In an embodiment, the antenna  318  may be a or a series of printed traces mounted in the cavity  335 . The location of the antenna  318  may be selected in order to resonant the created EM waves within the cavity  335 . In this embodiment, the EM waves may reflect back and forth between the walls of the cavity. The internal size of the cavity  335  may allow for a fundamental frequency such as 2.4 GHz and its harmonics to resonate therein. By placing the antenna  318  closer to the first aperture  316 , currents inducted by the antenna  318  are transferred through strong capacitive coupling, resulting in an improved gain of the fundamental resonant frequency at the first aperture. Additionally, placing the antenna  318  closer to the first aperture  316  improves antenna impedance match via the added capacitance contributed by the gap or spacing between the antenna  318  closer to the first aperture  316 . Accordingly, the second aperture  320  may be placed in the C-cover above the first aperture  316  so as to be placed in front of the internal aperture transmission zone of the first aperture  316  thereby preventing any destructive interference created by any waves redirected to and through the second aperture  320  from being out of phase. 
     In any embodiment described herein, the antenna cavity  335  may include any additional antenna elements that allow for further functionality of the antenna  318  described herein. In a specific embodiment, the antenna cavity  335  may also house a parasitic element to provide for utilization of the antenna  318 , antenna cavity  335 , and first and second apertures  316  and  320  with other frequency bands. The parasitic element may be grounded to the grounding wall  330  or some other grounding source. In an embodiment, the parasitic element may be used to steer the EM RF signal out of the second aperture  320  or towards the second aperture  320  of the antenna cavity  335 . In an embodiment, the parasitic element may modify the EM RF pattern emitted by the antenna  318  so as to direct the EM RF pattern in a specific direction such as towards the second aperture  320  for some frequency bands. The parasitic element may be one of a reflector-type parasitic element or a director-type parasitic element: either reflecting the EM RF waves it a direction opposite the parasitic element or directing the EM RF waves in a specific direction (thereby increasing the EM RF emissions in that specific direction), respectively. In this embodiment, the parasitic coupling element  350  may create higher order resonant modes to increase the global band coverage of a 5 GHz-operated antenna element. In this embodiment, three resonant modes of the 5 GHz antenna element may be realized through the use of the parasitic coupling element  350 . Resonant modes may include the monopole antenna element excited to operate at 5 GHz, operation of even harmonics of a 2.4 GHz-sized aperture that falls into 5 GHz, and with having the parasitic coupling element  350  resonating at a higher end of a 5 GHz frequency. These three modes are designed to operate such that the frequencies bond constructively to create the wide band 5G coverage while limiting frequency overlapping 
       FIG. 4  is a flow diagram illustrating a method  400  for operating an information handling system having an antenna within an antenna vent having a first aperture and a second aperture. The method  400  may include, at block  405 , executing instructions to transmit a communications signal from an antenna at a wireless interface adapter. In an embodiment, these instructions may be executed by the processor of the information handling system. In an embodiment, these instructions may be executed specifically by an antenna adaption controller associated with the wireless interface adapter. In an embodiment, the execution of these instructions may be completed partially by the processor of the information handling system and antenna adaption controller. In any of these embodiments, the execution of the instructions causes a voltage at a certain current or currents to be applied to an antenna such as a monopole antenna placed within an antenna cavity. As described herein, the signals sent to the antenna may cause the emission of electromagnetic waves in any range of a radio frequency on the EM spectrum from the antenna or at a specific target radio frequency on the EM spectrum. The specific target ranges of RF EM waves emitted from the second aperture as a consequence of this excitation of the antenna may depend on the size of the second aperture as described herein. In an embodiment, the target RF EM waves to be emitted from the antenna is 5.8 GHz. In an embodiment, the target RF EM waves to be emitted from the antenna is 5 GHz. In an embodiment, the target RF EM waves to be emitted from the antenna is 2.4 GHz. 
     At block  410 , the communications signal may be transmitted by the antenna. This communications signal may comprise any signal that transmits data from the information handling system used to communicate with other devices communicatively coupled to the information handling system. As described herein, the antenna used to transmit the data may be placed within an antenna cavity formed within a metal C-cover and D-cover assembly. The specific arrangement of the antenna cavity relative to the C-cover and D-cover as shown in  FIGS. 3D through 3G  includes a first aperture and a second aperture originating at an antenna cavity formed within the D-cover and C-cover assembly, respectively. The placement of the first aperture may be through a surface of the D-cover and may, in an embodiment, point down through a bottom edge, or a bottom, rounded edge of the D-cover. The placement of the second aperture, in an embodiment, may be through a surface of the C-cover. According to a number of embodiments of the present specification, the placement of the second aperture relative to the first aperture may be such that the second aperture may be tuned to operate in tandem with the first aperture by varying angle and location between them and relative to the grounding wall forming an antenna cavity such as  335 . Additionally, the placement of the second aperture relative to the first aperture may be such that the second aperture is placed in the C-cover above the internal aperture transmission zone of the first aperture in order to prevent any destructive interference created by any waves redirected to the second aperture from being out of phase. 
     In an embodiment, the antenna may be placed within the antenna cavity at a location closer to the first aperture and second aperture than to a grounding wall. In this embodiment, the angular relationship of the second aperture to the antenna may be such so as to avoid the RF signal being blocked from exiting the antenna cavity as described herein. 
     The method  400  may continue at block  415  to, with a grounding wall, operatively couple currents associated with the antenna such that the currents travel from the first aperture to the send aperture causing emitted electromagnetic radiation to be emitted towards the second aperture. In any embodiment, the antenna cavity may include a grounding wall to which the first aperture and second aperture are electrically coupled. In an embodiment, during use of the antenna, the second aperture and the first aperture are grounded to the grounding wall. This produces a low impedance path from the first aperture to the second aperture enabling the currents produced by the antenna to migrate away from the first aperture to the second aperture causing the RF signal to exit from the second aperture. This produces a new RF signal pattern emitted by the antenna to be created than would not otherwise be realized with the use of the first aperture alone. In an embodiment, this pattern includes a main lobe of the RF EM signal being directed towards the horizon up and away from the information handling system.

It is contemplated that additional blocks, steps, or functions may be added, some blocks, steps or functions may not be performed, blocks, steps, or functions may occur contemporaneously, and blocks, steps or functions from one flow diagram may be performed within another flow diagram.
