Mobile terminal

A mobile terminal, comprising:

• a case forming a portion of an appearance of the mobile terminal;
• a circuit board disposed inside the case;
• a flexible printed circuit board electrically connected to the circuit board;
• a first connector mounted on the circuit board;
• a second connector mounted on the flexible printed circuit board and configured to engage with the first connector;
• and
• a first antenna comprising array elements mounted on the flexible printed circuit board,
• wherein the first antenna is disposed internal to a first surface of the case and facing outwardly toward the first surface of the case and configured to radiate beam-formed wireless signals outwardly through the first surface which is adjacent to one side of the circuit board,
• wherein the first surface of the case corresponds to a lateral side edge of the mobile terminal, and
• wherein the case comprises:
• a metal portion formed of a metal material and formed with an opening at the first surface;
• and
• a dielectric portion formed of a dielectric material and disposed to cover the opening such that the first antenna radiates the beam-formed wireless signals outwardly through the dielectric portion.
