Publication number: 20130076575Abstract: A portable electronic apparatus with antenna structure is disclosed. The portable electronic apparatus includes an apparatus casing, an antenna structure, and an electronic component. The apparatus casing has an accommodating space and an appearance casing. The antenna structure is disposed adjacent to the appearance casing. The electronic component is disposed in the accommodating space and leaks electromagnetic wave during operation. Thereby, even though the electronic component leaks electromagnetic wave toward the antenna structure, the invention can reduce the influence on the antenna structure by the leaked electromagnetic wave by disposing the antenna structure as away from the electronic component as possible. Therefore, the antenna structure still can work normally during the operation of the electronic component, which solves the problem that an antenna structure of a conventional portable electronic apparatus is easily interrupted in the range of the leaked electromagnetic wave in the prior art.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 22, 2011Publication date: March 28, 2013Inventors: Ching-Chia Mai, Chih-Ching Hsu, Cheng-Han Lee, Yuan-Chin Hsu
