Title:
ANTENNA APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2008/016138
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A very small loop antenna element of an antenna apparatus includes a plurality of loop antenna parts that each have a predetermined loop plane and radiate a first polarization component parallel to the loop plane; and at least one connecting conductor that is oriented orthogonally to the loop plane, connects the plurality of loop antenna parts and that radiates a second polarization component orthogonal to the first polarization component. It is arranged that the maximum value of the antenna gain of the first polarization component be substantially the same as the maximum value of the antenna gain of the second polarization component when the distance between the antenna apparatus and a conductive plate is changed in a case where the antenna apparatus is disposed close to the conductive plate. Because of this arrangement, the composition of the first and second polarization components is substantially constant regardless of that distance.
