20130214979 | Electronic Device Antennas with Filter and Tuning Circuitry - An electronic device may have an antenna that includes conductive antenna structures forming an antenna resonating element and an antenna ground. A band-stop filter may be coupled between first and second portions of the conductive structures. The band-stop filter may be formed from multiple series-connected resonant circuits. The band-stop filter and an impedance matching circuit may be coupled in series between the antenna resonating element and the antenna ground. The band-stop filter may be characterized by a stop band. The antenna may be configured to operate in a first communications band that is outside of the stop band and a second communications band that is covered by the stop band. The impedance matching circuit may be an adjustable circuit that is used to tune the antenna. The adjustable circuit may be a switch-based adjustable capacitor that is adjusted to tune the response of the antenna in the first communications band. | 08-22-2013 |
20130241800 | Electronic Device with Tunable and Fixed Antennas - Electronic devices may be provided that contain wireless communications circuitry. The wireless communications circuitry may include radio-frequency transceiver circuitry and antennas. The antennas may include a non-tunable antenna and a tunable antenna. The non-tunable antenna may serve as the primary antenna in the electronic device and the tunable antenna may serve as a secondary antenna in the electronic device. The non-tunable antenna may be configured to operate in at least one communications band. The tunable antenna may contain adjustable circuitry. The adjustable circuitry may be used to tune the tunable antenna to cover the same communications band used by the non-tunable antenna. The tunable antenna may have a resonating element and an antenna ground. The adjustable circuit may be coupled between the resonating element and the antenna ground. The adjustable circuit may include electrical components such as inductors and capacitors and a radio-frequency switch for antenna tuning. | 09-19-2013 |
20130278480 | Antenna with Variable Distributed Capacitance - Electronic devices may be provided with antennas. An antenna may be formed from conductive antenna structures that include a frequency-dependent distributed capacitor. The antenna may include an antenna ground and an antenna resonating element that are separated by a gap. A low pass filter circuit may bridge the gap. The antenna resonating element may have antenna resonating element conductive structures that serve as first and second electrodes for the distributed capacitor. The second electrode may have first and second conductive elements coupled by a filter. The filter may be a low pass filter implemented using an inductor. The inductor may have a first terminal coupled to the first conductive element and a second terminal coupled to the second conductive element. A first antenna feed terminal may be coupled to the first conductive element and a second antenna feed terminal may be coupled to the antenna ground. | 10-24-2013 |
20130293424 | Corner Bracket Slot Antennas - A display cover layer may be mounted in an electronic device housing using housing structures such as corner brackets. A slot antenna may be formed from a corner bracket opening, metal traces on a hollow plastic support structure, or other conductive structures. The slot antenna may have a main portion with opposing ends. An antenna feed may be located at one of the ends. The slot antenna may have a slot with one or more bends. The bends may provide the slot antenna with a C-shaped outline. A side branch slot may extend from the main portion of the slot at a location between the two bends. The presence of the side branch slot may enhance antenna bandwidth. A hollow enclosure may serve as an antenna support structure and as a speaker box enclosing a speaker driver. The antenna feed may be positioned so as to overlap the speaker driver. | 11-07-2013 |

20120159468 | SOFTWARE DEPLOYMENT TO MULTIPLE COMPUTING DEVICES - A particular method includes storing a manifest file and a parameters file at a data store. The manifest file and the parameters file are associated with a software deployment package. An application associated with the software deployment package is published to a first remote computing device and to a second remote computing device. The method includes receiving first parameter values from the first remote computing device and receiving second parameter values from the second remote computing device. The first parameter values are stored in a first region of the data store that is specific to the first computing device. The second parameter values are stored in a second region of the data store that is specific to the second computing device. | 06-21-2012 |

20120297642 | Shoe with Composite Upper and Method of Making the Same - Uppers for article of footwear may include one or more skin layers attached to a base layer, wherein the skin layers overlap with one another in varying ways (e.g., with a first skin layer overlaying a second skin layer at some locations and the second skin layer overlaying the first skin layer at other locations). If desired, at least one of the skin layers may be at least partially transparent or translucent. The skin layer(s) may be applied over other elements of the upper (e.g., other skin layers, base layers, reinforcing layers, etc.). Additional aspects of this invention relate to production of curved tongue composite structures and/or footwear having a bonded (hot melt) side seam for forming the upper (and optionally do not include a rear heel seam). | 11-29-2012 |
20140250720 | Multicolor Sole System - A multicolor sole system includes a midsole member, a bladder member and an outsole member. The midsole member, the bladder member and the outsole member have a first color in the forefoot portion of the sole system and a second color in the heel portion of the sole system. The midsole member includes two outer coatings corresponding to the two colors, the bladder member includes two dyes corresponding to the two colors and the outsole member is made of two different colored materials corresponding to the two colors. | 09-11-2014 |
