This application claims priority to and the benefit of Japanese Patent Application No. 2016-046206 filed Mar. 9, 2016, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
The present disclosure relates to an electronic device that performs electric field communication via an electric field transmission medium.
In recent years, mobile terminals such as smartphones and the like are becoming more sophisticated, and as the functions increase, the number of antennas incorporated in a mobile terminal is also increasing. Since the corresponding frequency bands are different in each country, mobile terminals are required to deal with more countries by providing more functions. Therefore, mobile terminals have antennas at the outer periphery.
In the accompanying drawings:
FIGS. 1A and 1B schematically illustrate an electronic device according to Embodiment 1;
FIG. 2 schematically illustrates a cross section taken from line A-A in FIG. 1B;
When functions for electric field communication and communication using RFID technology are combined in an electronic device such as a smartphone or the like, stable communication operation is sometimes difficult due to the influence of conductors constituting an electrode on one side used for electric field communication. An electronic device according to the present disclosure enables stable operation by reducing the influence of the conductors constituting the electrode used for electric field communication.
Hereinafter, a plurality of embodiments will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
FIGS. 1A and 1B schematically illustrate an electronic device according to Embodiment 1. FIG. 1A is a front view of the electronic device, and FIG. 1B is a rear view of the electronic device.
