Patent ID: 7962186

Claim:
A method comprising: providing a first electronic component in a first device part of an electronic device; and providing a second electronic component in a second device part of the electronic device, the second electronic component comprising a multi-frequency antenna, wherein the first device part is mechanically coupled to the second device part, and the electronic device is operable in a first configuration and in a second configuration, such that when the electronic device is operated in the first configuration, the multi-frequency antenna is configured to transmit electromagnetic waves in a first frequency range and the first electronic component is located adjacent to the second electronic component at a first distance for receiving the electromagnetic waves, and when the electronic device is operated in the second configuration, the first electronic component is spaced from the second electronic component at a second distance greater than the first distance, and the multi-frequency antenna is configured to transmit and receive communication signals in a second frequency range different from the first frequency range.
