Abstract :
This paper describes several issues related to the integration of WiFi antennas into notebook computers, specifically choice of location and resulting pattern coverage, radiation efficiency, and antenna design factors relating to cost. In addition, it is intended to illustrate some of the pitfalls, successes, and performance expectations achievable with certain designs and possible solutions for improvement.
