Radio communication device
View Patent ↗A radio communication device including: a case; a circuit board mounted inside the case; an antenna apparatus that is arranged inside the case and is fed electricity from the circuit board; and one or a plurality of antenna improving elements that are each arranged inside the case and each have a line section with one end grounded at one point to a ground of the circuit board and with another end open, in which the antenna improving element is arranged near a central portion of the case along a longitudinal direction thereof, and the antenna apparatus is arranged near an end of the case along the longitudinal direction thereof.
1. A radio communication device, comprising:
a case;
a circuit board mounted inside the case;
an antenna apparatus that is fed electricity from the circuit board; and
one or a plurality of antenna improving elements that are each arranged inside the case and each have a line section with one end grounded at one point to a ground of the circuit board and with another end open, wherein:
the antenna improving element resonates at a same frequency as said antenna apparatus;
the antenna improving element is arranged near a central portion of the case along a longitudinal direction thereof; and
the antenna apparatus is arranged near an end of the case along the longitudinal direction thereof.
wherein the antenna improving element is bent to fit inside the case along a shape of an inner surface thereof.
2. The radio communication device according to claim 1 , wherein:
the case includes a first case and a second case;
