A reduced thickness radio unit without deteriorating antenna performance is disclosed. A metallic plate performing radio wave transmission/reception together with the radiation electrode, is conductively connected to the radiation electrode of a surface-mount type antenna. The metallic plate is preferably disposed so as to be opposed to the outer long-side surface of the substrate of the surface-mount type antenna with a space therebetween. Therefore, when mounting the metallic metal on a circuit board of the radio unit, the metallic plate does not face the circuit board surface and the top surface of a shield case, which are equivalent to ground. By thus disposing the metallic plate substantially perpendicularly to the circuit board, the problem of increase in electrostatic capacitance between the metallic plate and ground can be avoided, the increase in electrostatic capacitance being due to the reduction in thickness of the radio unit.
