Abstract

A mobile device includes a metal back cover, a dielectric substrate, a grounding metal element, a first radiation element, and a second radiation element. The metal back cover has a slot. The dielectric substrate has a first surface and a second surface, and the second surface faces the slot. The grounding metal element extends onto the first surface of the dielectric substrate. The first radiation element has a feeding point, and is disposed on the first surface of the dielectric substrate. The first vertical projection of the first radiation element at least partially overlaps the slot. The second radiation element is disposed on the second surface of the dielectric substrate. The second vertical projection of the second radiation element at least partially overlaps the slot. An antenna structure is formed by the first radiation element, the second radiation element, and the slot of the metal back cover.
