Abstract

An electronic apparatus includes: a chassis in which a display device is housed; a noise eliminating layer that is positioned between the chassis and the display device, and eliminates noise emitted from the display device; and an antenna for wireless communication that is housed in the chassis, in which the noise eliminating layer has a main body area and an auxiliary antenna area that extends from the main body area to the antenna and assists wireless communication of the antenna, and a portion of the auxiliary antenna area between one end on the side of the antenna and the other end on the side opposite to the one end is spaced apart from the main body area.

Claims (15)

1. An electronic apparatus, comprising:

a chassis in which a display is housed;

a camera module in the chassis;

a noise eliminating ground layer is sandwiched between the chassis and the display, and eliminates noise emitted from the display; and

an antenna for wireless communication and housed in the chassis,

wherein the noise eliminating ground layer has a main body area and an auxiliary antenna area that extends from the main body area to the antenna and assists wireless communication of the antenna,

the main body area is sandwiched between the chassis and the camera module,

a portion of the auxiliary antenna area, between one end on a side of the antenna and another end on a side opposite to the one end, is spaced apart from the main body area,

the portion of the auxiliary antenna area is sandwiched between the camera module and the chassis, and

the camera module is electrically connected to the noise eliminating ground layer wherein the camera module operates as an auxiliary antenna.

2. The electronic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the one end of the portion of the auxiliary antenna area on the side of the antenna is spaced apart from the antenna.

3. The electronic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein:

the chassis has an antenna housing area in which the antenna is housed, and

the antenna housing area is positioned on a line with the auxiliary antenna area.

4. The electronic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the portion of the auxiliary antenna area, between the one end on the side of the antenna and the another end on the side opposite to the one end, is spaced apart from the main body area over a length that allows radio waves in a low-frequency range to be received.
