Patent ID: 7847695

Claim:
An external package for a product having an electric component, comprising: at least one support and an electrically conductive layer coupled to the support, the external package comprising one of a paper or a polymer film forming the support; the electrically conductive layer having an electrically conductive area, the layer comprising a structure and/or a coating arranged to reduce the electrical shielding otherwise exhibited by the conductive area in the surroundings of the external package such that electromagnetic radiation penetrates through the electrically conductive layer, the use of the electric component which delivers or receives information externally through the external package and/or whose power supply is fed through the external package thereby being not adversely affected or thereby is adversely affected only to an extent such that the component remains operable; the structure for dividing the conductive area of the electrically conductive layer into at least two electrically isolated areas and being arranged to interrupt the electrically conductive area of the electrically conductive layer at least once; the electrical component including a coil adjacent to the conductive layer, the coil having a center, the structure being arranged opposite the coil center, the interruption dividing the conductive area in at least the area adjacent to the coil into two halves.
