Patent ID: 8665164

Claim:
An electronic device comprising: at least one conductive structure; a housing forming front and rear exterior surfaces of the electronic device and forming exterior conductive sidewalls of the electronic device, wherein the conductive sidewalls are disposed on at least three different sides of the housing; an antenna formed at least partly from the conductive sidewalls and the conductive structure; an antenna feed for the antenna that comprises a spring, wherein the antenna feed bridges an opening between the at least one conductive structure and the conductive sidewalls, wherein the antenna feed has a portion in contact with the conductive sidewalls, wherein the conductive sidewalls have a height and have a continuous length that wraps around a perimeter of the electronic device, wherein in electronic device has a height, a width, and a thickness, wherein the thickness of the electronic device is less than both the width and the height of the electronic device, wherein the height of the conductive sidewalls is substantially equal to the thickness of the electronic device, and wherein the antenna is not formed from an opening in the conductive sidewalls along the height of the conductive sidewalls.
