Abstract:
In an embodiment, an apparatus (e.g., a gas detection device) includes a housing, a printed circuit board (PCB), one or more radio modems with a switching network. The housing includes a conductive cover and the cover plays as an antenna. The PCB may be fixed in the housing and includes a ground plane and a plurality of conductive feeds. Each feed are vertically mounted directly or indirectly on the PCB. When the cover is attached to the housing, each of the feeds electrically contact a respective connection point on the antenna. The switching network is to configure which feed should be connected to the radio modem. A extra grounding resistor is mounted or not to change antenna type to enhance the performance of antenna.

Claim (Index 25):
A gas detection device, comprising:\n a housing including a conductive cover, wherein the conductive cover includes an antenna; a gas sensor configured to receive an air sample; a printed circuit board (PCB) mounted in the housing and including a ground plane and a plurality of conductive feeds, wherein each feed protrudes away from the PCB, and wherein when the cover is attached to the housing, each of the feeds electrically contact a respective connection point on the antenna; a radio modem mounted on the PCB; a switching network mounted on the PCB and coupled to the radio modern anal to the plurality of feeds; and a matching network coupled between the radio modem and the switching network and configured to adjust a resonant frequency of the antenna with respect to at least one of the feeds; wherein the switching network is configurable such that when the cover is attached to the housing, a selectable one of the feeds is electrically coupled through the switching network to the radio modem.
