Abstract: A watch with a built-in tag that includes a display displaying a time, a metal case having a through-hole in a side surface, a metal crown disposed to enable opening and closing of the through-hole, and a wireless communication device housed inside the case. The crown includes a head located outside the case and coming into contact with the case to close the through-hole, and a shank extending to the inside of the case through the through-hole with one end portion connected to the head and the other end portion located inside the case. When the head of the crown is pulled in a direction away from the case, the head of the crown becomes contactless with the case to enable a reader device located outside the case to read information of the wireless communication device through the crown.

Abstract: An information terminal apparatus includes a flat plate-shaped conductive housing including a first principal surface, a second principal surface, and a side surface that connects the principal surfaces, and a display provided on the first principal surface. The conductive housing includes a slit extending from the first principal surface to the second principal surface. Near the slit, a power feeding coil coupled to an IC element for an HF-band RFID system is disposed. The power feeding coil is magnetically coupled to the conductive housing via the slit. Thus, the conductive housing is utilized as a radiation element of the HF-band RFID system.

Abstract: An antenna device includes a base including a planar conductor disposed thereon, and a coil antenna. The coil antenna includes a coil conductor wound around a magnetic core. The coil antenna is arranged such that a coil opening of the coil conductor is closed to an edge of the planar conductor. A current passing through the coil conductor induces a current in the planar conductor. Thus, a first magnetic flux occurs in the coil antenna, and a second magnetic flux occurs in the planar conductor. Therefore, a third magnetic flux occurs in an area of the planar conductor. Accordingly, the antenna device achieves a small footprint, a small-sized communication terminal apparatus and a desired communication distance.

Abstract: A power supply coil is disposed on a rear surface of a display via a shield plate. When a current flows in the power supply coil, a magnetic flux emitted from the power supply coil traverses an opening of the shield plate. As a result, the power supply coil and the shield plate are electromagnetically coupled and the shield plate defines and functions as an antenna. Accordingly, a communication terminal communicates favorably with a smartcard, which is a device positioned on a front surface side of the display.

Abstract: An antenna device that includes coil antennas each having a coil conductor wound around a winding axis and a planar conductor including a surface and an edge end portion, the surface extending along the winding axis of the coil conductor, the edge end portion being adjacent to a coil opening of the coil conductor. A current flowing through the coil conductor induces a current in the planar conductor, this current produces a magnetic flux in a direction normal to the planar conductor, and thus the planar conductor acts as a booster antenna. The antenna device has directivity in the direction normal to the planar conductor because the magnetic flux produced by the coil antennas and that produced by the planar conductor are combined. This enables the antenna device to occupy a small area while achieving a predetermined communication distance.
