An antenna is connected to a first end of a high-frequency transmission line, and a connector is connected to a second end of the high-frequency transmission line. A characteristic impedance of a microstrip line is higher than characteristic impedances of first and second strip lines, and a characteristic impedance of a coplanar line is higher than a characteristic impedance of the second strip line. Thus, at a certain frequency, a standing wave develops in which the position of the microstrip line and the position of the coplanar line are maximum voltage points and three-quarter-wavelength resonance is a fundamental wave mode. Thus, the cutoff frequency of the high-frequency transmission line is high, and an insertion loss of a signal is significantly reduced to be low over a wide band.

High-frequency transmission line

A transmission line includes a dielectric base body including a first and second base bodies. Each of the first and second base bodies includes dielectric layers stacked on top of one another. The first base body includes a first signal conductor located between ground conductors in a stacking direction. The second base body includes a second signal conductor located between ground conductors in the stacking direction. The first and second base bodies are brought together so that one of the ground conductors of the first base body and one of the ground conductors of the second base body abut against or are adjacent to each other. Lead conductors defining both ends of the first signal conductor and lead conductors defining both ends of the second signal conductor are exposed on a mounting surface of the dielectric base body parallel or substantially parallel to the stacking direction.

In a transmission line, first and second signal conductors are located inside a dielectric base body. The first and second signal conductors are located between first and second ground conductors in a thickness direction of the dielectric base body. A main conductor portion of the second ground conductor is located between the first and second signal conductors in a width direction of the dielectric base body. First and second auxiliary conductor portions of the second ground conductor respectively extend from the main conductor portion to first-signal-conductor-side and second-signal-conductor-side lateral surfaces of the dielectric base body. A first lateral-surface conductor connects the first auxiliary conductor portion to a plating-connection conductor connected to the first ground conductor. A second lateral-surface conductor connects the second auxiliary conductor portion to a plating-connection conductor connected to the first ground conductor.
