Abstract

The present invention provides a surface-mounting type antenna comprising: a base member made of an insulating material, including a first major surface, a second major surface opposite to the first major surface, and a plurality of side surfaces extending between the first and second major surfaces; a grounding electrode covering substantially the entire area of the first major surface of the base member; a strip-like radiation electrode mostly disposed on the second major surface, the radiation electrode having a first end and a second end, the first end being served as an open-ended terminal; a connecting terminal connected to the second end of the radiation electrode; a power-supply electrode disposed in the vicinity of the open-ended terminal of the radiation electrode; and a power-supply terminal connected to the power-supply electrode.
