Abstract
Provided is a terrestrial broadcast wave reception-use antenna device having performance that is equivalent to or better than that of a conventional device in frequency bands at or below an FM band even if an antenna element length is shortened to approximately 55 [mm]. An amplifier (-A) is configured so as to include a compound semiconductor HEMT for amplifying a received wave having a frequency at or below a resonant point of an antenna element () among received waves of the antenna element (), the compound semiconductor HEMT having an equivalent noise resistance of 2 [Ω] or smaller for the received frequency so that a noise figure (NF) is approximately constant over a wide frequency band at or below the FM band.
