Original Abstract Submitted
circuits, methods, and apparatus that can route signals for wireless communications throughout an electronic device in an efficient manner that can save space, reduce noise, improve coexistence, and be readily assembled. an example can route signals through an electronic device using a bus, ring, or daisy-chain topology. use of this topology can simplify routing, thereby saving space that can be used for additional functionality for the electronic device, a reduction in size of the electronic device, or both. fiber-optic segments can be used for signal routing to decrease noise.
