Abstract
A surface mount antenna includes a loop-shaped radiation electrode arranged so as to be extended over a plurality of surfaces of a dielectric substrate. The front end side of the loop-shaped radiation electrode is branched to provide a plurality of branched radiation electrodes. One side end of the radiation electrode functions as a electric feeding portion connected to an external circuit. One of the branched radiation electrodes is an in-loop branched radiation electrode which is surrounded by a loop-shaped electrode portion including the radiation electrode portion extended from the feeding portion of the radiation electrode to a branching portion and the other branched radiation electrode connected to the radiation electrode portion, the in-loop branched radiation electrode being positioned at an interval from the loop-shaped electrode. A capacitance is generated between the one of the branched radiation electrodes and the radiation electrode portion extended from the feeding portion of the radiation electrode to the branching portion.
