Abstract
A mobile electronic equipment with an internal antenna includes a case with a opened portion, a display panel exposed through the opened portion of the case for displaying a character or image information, a panel frame made of metal to support the edges of the display panel and being positioned within the case, and an antenna for enabling a data transmission and reception for a radio communication. The antenna is grounded to the panel frame in a state of being positioned within the case. The antenna is fixed to the panel frame with a bracket for fixing the display panel to the case. The antenna of the mobile electronic equipment is positioned in the portable electronic equipment such as the PDA or the portable computer and data transmission and reception is possibly performed for a radio communication without being exposed outwardly. Thus, the problem that a user should handle the antenna directly can be solved, and the antenna can be prevented from damage possibly caused due to a wrong use.
