An aspect of an antenna apparatus according to the present invention is provided with a conductor plate, radiating elements disposed to face the conductor plate and partially short-circuited to the conductor plate, a feeding terminal provided on the conductor plate, and a feeding path connecting the feeding terminal and a feeding portion of the radiating elements to each other.

Antenna apparatus

A patch antenna for a first frequency is disposed on a first face of a dielectric substrate, and has a first size. A coil antenna for a second frequency is disposed on the first face of the dielectric substrate so as to surround the patch antenna, and has a second size which is larger than the first size. A ground member is disposed on a second face of the dielectric substrate, and has a third size which is larger than the first size and smaller than the second size.

Antenna device commonly used for two frequencies

At least one of the following requirements is satisfied. A position of a curvature center of an arcuate portion in at least one of waveguide plates is selected between a connecting member and a feeder, in accordance with a desired horizontal beam radiation characteristic. A curvature radius of the arcuate portion in at least one of the waveguide plates is selected in accordance with a desired vertical beam radiation characteristic. A slanted angle of a peripheral face of the arcuate portion, which connects a top face and a bottom face of each waveguide plate, in at least one of the waveguide plates is selected in accordance with a desired vertical beam radiation characteristic.

Semicircular radial antenna

In an antenna for communicating an electromagnetic wave, a first converger converges the electromagnetic wave. A second converger faces the first converger and includes a conductor plate having a through hole, into which a magnetic flux of the converged electromagnetic wave is converged. The through hole is formed at a center portion of the conductor plate so as to have a size which is sufficiently smaller than a wavelength of the electromagnetic wave. The conductor plate is formed with a cutout extending from a part of the through hole to an outer periphery of the conductor plate. A converter faces the through hole of the conductor plate to convert the converged magnetic flux into voltage.
