Abstract
An antenna device having a feeder electrode that extends linearly on a top surface of a dielectric substrate. A balanced electrode having two balanced transmission electrodes vertical to the extending direction of the feeder electrode and extending in parallel. The two balanced transmission electrodes are connected to the feeder electrode and separated by an interval of ½ of a wavelength of a transmission/reception signal. A radiation electrode having a first electrode connected to the one of the two balanced transmission electrodes and a second electrode connected to the other of the two balanced transmission electrodes and is positioned parallel to the feeder electrode. A waveguide electrode is formed at a position separated from the radiation electrode by a predetermined interval and in parallel to the radiation electrode. A ground electrode is formed at an area of a back surface of the dielectric substrate corresponding to an area including a portion where the feeder electrode is positioned. By connecting the two balanced electrodes to the feeder electrode at an interval of ½ of a wavelength in this manner, this branch portion has a signal branching function and a balun functio…
