Abstract

Information equipment according to an embodiment includes a display housing with a display unit, a first radio communication antenna disposed at an end part of the display housing, a second radio communication antenna using a frequency band adjacent to or overlapped with that of the first radio communication antenna, and a third radio communication antenna disposed at an end part between the first and the second radio communication antennas, and uses a frequency band not adjacent to nor overlapped with those of the first and the second radio communication antennas.

Claims (20)

1. Information equipment, comprising:

a display housing which is equipped with a display unit;

a first radio communication antenna which is disposed at an end part of the display housing;

a second radio communication antenna which is disposed at an end part of the display housing, and uses a frequency band adjacent to or overlapped with that of the first radio communication antenna; and

a third radio communication antenna which is disposed at an end part of the display housing between the first radio communication antenna and the second radio communication antenna, and uses a frequency band not adjacent to nor overlapped with those of the first and the second radio communication antennas.

2. The equipment according to claim 1 , wherein

the first radio communication antenna makes a radio communication via a wireless LAN;

the second radio communication antenna makes a radio communication in a ultra wide band; and

the third radio communication antenna is an antenna for a cellular system.

3. Information equipment, comprising:

a display housing which is equipped with a display unit;

a first radio communication antenna which is disposed at an end part of the display housing;

a second radio communication antenna which is disposed at an end part of the display housing, and performs transmission and reception in a radio communication system differing from that of the first radio communication antenna; and

a third communication antenna which is disposed at an end part of the display housing between the first radio communication antenna and the second radio communication antenna, and performs reception by using the same frequency band as that of the second radio communication antenna.

4. The equipment according to claim 3 , wherein

the second radio communication antenna is an antenna for a wireless LAN capable of performing transmission and reception; and

the third radio communication antenna is an antenna for a wireless LAN and used only for reception.

5. The equipment according to claim 4 , wherein the first radio communication antenna makes a radio communication via the wireless LAN; and the second radio communication antenna makes a radio communication in a ultra wide band.

6. The equipment according to claim 1 , being a laptop personal computer which further comprises a main body housing rotatably connected to the display housing.

7. The equipment according to claim 3 , being a laptop personal computer which further comprises a main body housing rotatably connected to the display housing.
