Abstract

Abstract The present invention relates to a portable transceiver apparatus, in particular a radiomobile telephone set, with low irradiation of the user, comprising a handset and an antenna, having an asymmetric radiation pattern, applied to said handset. Since such apparatuses, when in use, are placed alongside the user's head, a great amount of electromagnetic waves pass through it, in particular with the continuous increase in the transmission frequency and the consequent decrease in the dimension of the antenna the irradiation of the user's head is and will become a serious problem. The aim of the invention is to provide a portable transceiver apparatus so as to minimize the irradiation of its user. By using an antenna having an asymmetric irradiation pattern such as to be extremely limited in the directions of the user's head, a greatly reduced irradiation can be obtained.
