Abstract
An inverted-F-shaped antenna pattern is formed as a driven element on the obverse-side surface of a glass-epoxy circuit board. This antenna pattern has a feeding conductor pattern connected to a feeding transmission path formed on the obverse-side surface of the circuit board and a grounding conductor pattern connected to a grounding conductor portion formed on the obverse-side surface of the circuit board. Moreover, an inverted-L-shaped antenna pattern is formed as a passive element on the reverse-side surface of the circuit board. This antenna pattern has a grounding conductor pattern connected to a grounding conductor portion formed on the reverse-side surface of the circuit board. Forming the inverted-F-shaped antenna pattern and the inverted-L-shaped antenna pattern so as to overlap each other yields a laminate pattern antenna that is usable in a wide frequency range.
