Where is the position of the Bluetooth antenna in the iPhones?

I am researching iBeacons for my final year project at University and I'm interested to know the position of the Bluetooth antenna in the iPhones.

I have found this diagram which seems to say it is located in the bottom right of the iPhone (but its not a reliable source).

Could anybody lead me to a trustworthy source to confirm this please?

Cheers, Stu

Hi SMJ93, Just watched a tutorial on replacing an iphone 5 wifi antenna called "Wifi antenna Repair - iPhone 5 How to Tutorial", at 4.49minutes, they show the position of the wifi antenna. The company's channel is called iPhoneRepairMia if you want to look the video up.

Here, they point to the wifi antenna on a face-up iPhone 5:

Ohhh, yes that makes sense and explains why it is so hard to find a diagram!

I still need to find a reliable source / diagram showing the location of the bluetooth antenna though (similar to the picture I originally posted, but official) :/

Cheers, Stu
