Abstract

An electronic device includes a housing antenna formed from a conductive material. At least parts of a side member and a rear cover that constitute the housing of the electronic device are used as an antenna. Accordingly, radiation patterns generated by this antenna are formed on the rear surface of the electronic device as well as at the upper portion of the electronic device. It is therefore possible to perform wireless communication with higher accuracy.
