Abstract
A PC card for insertion into a slot of a portable computer or other electronic device, has an antenna that allows the electronic device to send and receive data through radio waves. The antenna is moveable from a stowed position wherein most of the antenna lies in the PC card housing, and a first deployed position wherein most of the antenna projects rearwardly through an opening at the rear of the housing so radio waves can be transmitted and received. The antenna can be mounted on a tray that is moveable forwardly and rearwardly into and out of the rear of the housing. The tray can form a smart card-receiving recess that receives a small smart card to enable connection to pads on the smart card so as to provide authorization for communication through a wireless telephone network.
