An information device includes a main unit, a display unit which opens and closes rotatably with respect to the main unit, a first horizontally polarized antenna and a first vertically polarized antenna both provided in a first position of the display unit, and a second horizontally polarized antenna and a second vertically polarized antenna both provided in a second position of the display unit.

Information device

A communication apparatus has a speaker, a headband which connects to the speaker at an end thereof, a wireless communication module coupled to the speaker, and an antenna arranged on the headband, and coupled to said wireless communication module.

Communication apparatus with antenna

A PC includes a main body housing and lid. The main body housing has an input unit on the upper surface, and the lid pivotally attached to the back portion via a hinge. The lid has a liquid crystal display on the inner surface, and an antenna disposed above the display to communicate with a peripheral device. The PC has a detector made up of a push type switch and projection for detecting the open/closed state of the lid. The CPU of the PC detects the open/closed state of the lid by a detection signal from the detector, and controls shift of the peripheral device between a normal mode and a power saving mode.

Power savings information processing apparatus

An information processing apparatus utilizes a function of a wireless communication card including a control section and a wireless communication section. The apparatus includes a body, and an antenna supported by the apparatus main body. A slot is provided to the body and configured to detachably insert the card therein. A first connector is provided to the apparatus main body, and configured to connect the control section to the body when the card is inserted in the slot. A second connector is provided to the body, and configured to connect the wireless communication section to the antenna in a state where the card is inserted the slot.

Information processing apparatus, wireless communication card, and information processing system

A radio communication device includes an antenna for a predetermined frequency band, a radio communication circuit connected to the antenna, and a ground pattern connected to the antenna, a peripheral length of the ground pattern being 0.7 to 1.4 times as great as one wavelength of the predetermined frequency band. With the structure, it is possible to obtain a broader band characteristic without deteriorating the radiation efficiency of the antenna.

Radio communication device and electronic apparatus having the same

An electronic device comprises a pair of diversity antenna modules of a first wireless communication scheme placed near the left and right ends of a display unit, and an antenna module of a second wireless communication scheme placed between the pair of diversity antenna modules. Each antenna module comprises a flexible substrate and an antenna provided on the substrate, in which a portion of the substrate having the antenna thereon projects from the upper end of the display unit is folded toward the front side of the display unit.

Antenna and electronic device containing the same

This invention provides a portable information apparatus which has a main body of the portable information apparatus, a display unit attached to the main body of the portable information apparatus, a plurality of radio communication diversity antennas provided to the display unit, and a radio communication antenna which is provided to the display unit at a position between at least one pair of radio communication diversity antennas of the plurality of radio communication diversity antennas.

Portable information apparatus incorporating radio communication antenna

An information processor includes a display case having a display panel therein. A antenna is disposed in an upper end of the display case opposite a hinge mechanism connecting the display case to a main body. The display case is movable between an open and a closed position. The antenna has radiation characteristics that provide reception and transmission capability when the display case is either in the open or closed position.
