Abstract

According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, an antenna device may include: a base substrate; a mesh grid formed by transparent electrodes on at least one surface of the base substrate; and a power feeding port connected to the mesh grid to provide a power feeding signal. At least a part of the mesh grid may form a radiation element with at least one of the power feeding signal indicative of direct feeding, and the power feeding signal indicative of coupled feeding indirectly. Since the radiation element may be configured by forming the mesh grid using a transparent conductive material, the antenna device may be easily concealed. Even if the antenna device is attached to, for example, a window glass of a vehicle or a window of a building, the antenna device may contribute to the removal of a shadow region while sufficiently securing the visibility of the glass.
