Abstract

The embodiments of the invention discloses an antenna component and an electronic communication device. The antenna component comprises a plate-shaped front cover made of a transparent plastic material and at least one antenna made of a conductor material. The front cover comprises an antenna accommodation part and a circuit accommodation part. One end of the antenna is embedded in the antenna accommodation part via an injection molding process, and the other end of the antenna extends to the circuit accommodation part and is exposed out of the circuit accommodation part. The electronic communication device comprises a housing, a circuit board, and an antenna component disclosed in the present invention. The present invention is applied to reduce the volume of the antenna component.
