Summary:An electronic device may be provided with a conductive housing sidewall and a phased antenna array that transmits radio frequency signals at a frequency greater than 10 GHz. Each antenna in the array may radiate through a respective aperture in the sidewall. The antenna module may include a folded flexible printed circuit having a first portion and a second portion extending from an end of the first portion and folded relative to the first portion. The antenna in the phased antenna array may have antenna resonating elements distributed between the first portion and the second portion. Formation of the antenna module from a folded flexible printed circuit in this manner may be used to minimize the thickness of the antenna module, allowing the antenna module to fit between the flange of the side wall and the rear housing wall without occupying excessive space within the device. 本发明提供了一种电子设备,该电子设备可以设置有导电外壳侧壁和相控天线阵列,该相控天线阵列以大于10GHz的频率传送射频信号。该阵列中的每个天线可以通过该侧壁中的相应开孔进行辐射。该天线模块可以包括折叠柔性印刷电路,该折叠柔性印刷电路具有第一部分和从该第一部分的端部延伸并
