Original Abstract Submitted

A device includes a frame and at least one printed circuit board attached to the frame. The frame includes an integrated aperture antenna array and an antenna feed in electrical communication with the at least one printed circuit board. The integrated aperture antenna array further includes a first conductive dipole arm in planar alignment with a surface of the frame; a second conductive dipole arm in planar alignment with the surface of the frame and adjacent to the first conductive dipole arm; a first feedline in electrical communication with the first conductive dipole arm and the antenna feed; a second feedline in electrical communication with the second conductive dipole arm and the surface of the frame; and a shorting arm in electrical communication with second conductive dipole arm and the frame.
