Abstract
An antenna device, comprising a dielectric substrate board (), dipole means () formed on the substrate board (), and reflector member () having first and second reflective surfaces which are aparallel to each other define a first angle between each other. A positional relationship between the substrate board () and the reflector member () is such that the substrate board () and a vertex of the first angle (α) substantially lie in the same plane and the first and second reflective surfaces lie on opposite sides of the plane, a second angle defined between the substrate board () and the first reflective surface being different from zero each. In this way, an antenna device suitable for use in a broad variety of applications is provided which allows easy modification of its antenna characteristics by adjusting the angle between the reflective surfaces and/or the angular position of the reflector member () with respect to the substrate board ().
