Abstract
A loop antenna transmits and receives a radio wave including a signal. A RFID detection circuit includes a circuit terminal and a circuit terminal connected with the loop antenna. A switch circuit switches, according to a state of an object to be detected, between a gain reduced state in which a gain of the loop antenna is reduced and a gain unreduced state in which the gain of the loop antenna is not reduced. The switch circuit has a first point of action and a second point of action for reducing the gain of the loop antenna, when λ is a wavelength of the radio wave, the point of action is located within a gain reduction range that represents a range on the loop antenna from the circuit terminal to a position of λ/32 away from the circuit terminal in a direction in which the loop antenna extends.
