Abstract
A mobile telephone includes an antenna device attached to the casing of the telephone which includes an antenna cap covering an antenna which is situated near one wall of the antenna cap. The antenna device includes an off-centering arrangement such that, when the antenna device is fixed to the casing, the antenna is automatically placed and secured at the position farthest away from the head of the user. The antenna is therefore always separated from the head of the user by a minimal distance during a telephone call.
