Abstract
An antenna device includes a ground conductor plate, and a radiating conductor plate made of a metal plate, which is spaced from the ground conductor plate. The radiating conductor plate is provided with adjusting means for adjusting the electrical length. Thus, the correction of the electrical lengths can be made even if there is a difference between the electrical lengths of the radiating conductor plate caused by assembling errors, etc. In addition, when the antenna device is used in a state in which it is connected to external equipment, the adjusting means allows the adjustment of the electrical lengths of the radiating conductor plate even if the electrical lengths of the radiating conductor plate are subjected to the electrical influence from the electrical equipment and its surrounding environment.
