In a communication antenna unit which is stored inside a casing, a flexible circuit board is supported by a support member in a bent state. A first antenna conductor pattern which configures a first communication antenna and a human body sensor are substantially formed on a flat plane section of the flexible circuit board adjacent to a curved section of the flexible circuit board. A second antenna conductor pattern which configures a second communication antenna is substantially formed on the curved section. The first antenna conductor pattern and the second antenna conductor pattern are connected to each other through an inductor coil which configures a resonant circuit portion.

Communication antenna unit and mobile terminal apparatus

To provide a mobile terminal having a board support structure capable of reducing impact on built-in components of the mobile terminal when a housing thereof undergoes a primary mode of deformation. The upper end portion and the lower end portion of a main boardare supported by bosses, and. The upper end portion and the lower end portion of the main boardare fixed in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the main board. The upper end portion thereof slides with respect to the peripheries of small-diameter cylindrical portion insertion holesandof a module holding boardon the front side and a rear housingon the rear side. Thus, the main boardcan move in a plane direction (in a longitudinal direction).
