Abstract
An antenna element includes a dielectric substrate, a radiation electrode, a first ground electrode, a second ground electrode, and a via conductor that connects the first ground electrode and the second ground electrode to each other. The dielectric substrate includes a flat-plate-shaped first part and a second part that is thinner than the first part. The radiation electrode and the first ground electrode are arranged on or in the first part so as to face each other in the thickness direction of the first part. The second ground electrode is spaced apart from the radiation electrode. The second ground electrode is arranged on or in the second part so as to not face the radiation electrode in the thickness direction of the second part. The radiation electrode is capacitively coupled to the second ground electrode and the via conductor.
