To provide an arrangement method of a receiving antenna for achieving arrangement for preventing the mutual interference of flux from being generated between ferrite chip antenna elements 1 and 2, for maintaining resonance characteristics in two parallel resonance circuits 11 and 12 in an appropriate state, and for preventing sensitivity to a radio signal from being decreased when the two ferrite chip antenna elements 1 and 2 are arranged.

In the receiving antenna, two ferrite chip antenna elements 1 and 2 are adjacently arranged. The ferrite chip antenna elements 1 and 2 are combined and arranged so that flux passing through the axis center of one ferrite chip antenna element 1 does not pass through that of the other. In this case, combination and arrangement are made so that they nearly orthogonally cross while one end section of the ferrite chip antenna element 2 opposed to the side section of the ferrite chip antenna element 1.
