Abstract

In an integrated antenna, an antenna characteristic of a first antenna element is obtained when the first antenna element and a second antenna element are mounted on first and second positions of a base by first and second mount portions, respectively. A conductive dummy member has a shape detachably mountable on the second position by the second mount portion. The dummy member allows the first antenna element to substantially maintain the antenna characteristic when the first antenna element and the dummy member are mounted on the first and second positions of the base by the first and second mount portions, respectively.
