A mobile communication terminal including a Radio Frequency Identification
(RFID) reader includes a base band unit for controlling communications, a
Radio Frequency (RF) unit for transceiving a signal representing voice
and data communications with an external mobile communication terminal,
and an RFID unit for transceiving an RFID signal with a RFID transponder
in a high frequency band through the RF unit. An RFID RF block may shares
components with the RF unit including an antenna, an antenna switch
module and a high output amplifier unit to reduce circuit area
consumption. The RFID signal may be transceived over a UHF band to
increase an operating range of the RFID.
