Abstract
A patch antenna is provided with an antenna main body including a radiating element on an upper surface of a dielectric body; and a parasitic element disposed at a predetermined distance from the radiating element. The parasitic element is a metal material having an upward convex shape as a whole and including a planar portion which is parallel to the upper surface of the radiating element and two bent portions which are inclined portions inclined from both ends of the planar portion toward the radiating element. While the parasitic element has a three-dimensional shape as a whole, the parasitic element has a planar-view area wider than a planar-view area of the radiating element in a planar view as seen from the first surface side of the dielectric body, and is provided in a position apart from the radiating element and to cover the radiating element.
