Patent ID: 8044867

Claim:
A communication terminal apparatus comprising: a substrate disposed inside a housing, the substrate including a substrate surface occupying the most surface area of any surface of the substrate; a power feeding part disposed in the substrate; and a monopole antenna having a first element configured to resonate at first frequency, a second element configured to resonate at second frequency and one end connected to the power feeding part for feeding power to the first element and the second element, wherein the first element and the second element are substantially perpendicular to the substrate surface, wherein the communication terminal apparatus has a front surface that faces a user when the terminal is placed adjacent the user's head during use and a back surface that faces away from the user when the terminal is placed adjacent the user's head during use, the first frequency is lower than the second frequency, and at least a part of the first element is closer to the front surface than the second element is to the front surface.
