Abstract
A wearable device and methods for using the same provided. In one embodiment, a wearable device includes an antenna disposed in a controller and/or a band. The antenna is an electrically conductive element with three connection points, defining three segments. With one of the connection points driven and the other two grounded, the antenna has characteristics of an inverted-F antenna along with a parasitic element between the two grounded points, parasitic element altering the antenna's directionality. In an embodiment, the antenna includes apertures through which portions of a shielded cable protrude to allow conductors in each cable portion to connect to the printed circuit board which is enclosed within the periphery of the antenna. The shields of the cable portions connect to a ground plane of the printed circuit board and both the shields and the ground plane of the printed circuit board act as a ground for the antenna.
