Abstract
There is provided a radio apparatus usable in a frequency band of use comprising a feeder circuit, a first antenna element and a second antenna element. The first antenna element having a first end connected to the feeder circuit and a grounded second end includes a forward path and a backward path short-circuiting to each other at a shorting bridge, and is a half wavelength long of a first frequency in the band of use. The distance between the first end and the second end is no greater than one-tenth wavelength of the first frequency. The second antenna element begins with the first end, shares a part of the forward path with the first antenna element, diverges from the forward path at a diverging point before the shorting bridge, comes to an open end and is one-fourth wavelength long of a second frequency in the band of use.
