Abstract

A display device is provided. The display device includes a display module and an antenna module. The antenna module includes at least one antenna body for receiving a wireless signal; a signal transmission line coupled to the at least one antenna body; an antenna carrier plate having a working region and a bending region, the antenna carrier plate in the bending region is bent from a display surface to a non-display surface, so that the signal transmission line extends from the display surface to the non-display surface; an adapter circuit board on the non-display surface; and an adapter coupling the signal transmission line to the adapter circuit board to enable the adapter circuit board to be signal coupled to the at least one antenna body.

Claims (52)
