Abstract

An antenna apparatus includes two substantially parallel conductor plates, a dielectric strip held between the two conductors, an aperture formed on the upper conductor plate above the dielectric strip, and a matching section for matching impedance between the dielectric strip and the aperture. The matching section is integrated with the dielectric strip below the aperture, thus continuously connecting the matching section to the dielectric strip.
