1. An antenna, comprising:
a grounded segment extending from a metal chassis of an electronic device, wherein the metal chassis includes one or more
bands of conductive material bounding its height and width near a side edge thereof, and further wherein at least one of the
bands of conductive material includes a window located therein, and further wherein the grounded segment extends into the
window; and
a feed portion coplanar with the grounded segment, the grounded segment and feed portion jointly tuned to cause the antenna
to communicate in selected bands of frequencies.
