Abstract
A communication apparatus includes a signal line that connects an antenna and a wireless communication module to each other, the signal line having a portion where the signal line is divided in part into sections, with an adjacent portion adjacent to the divided portion of the signal line being greater in line width than a main body portion of the signal line; a first ground pattern disposed to face the main body portion; and a second ground pattern disposed to face the adjacent portion. The distance from the adjacent portion to the second ground pattern is longer than the distance from the main body portion to the first ground pattern. The antenna and the wireless communication module are connected to each other through the signal line and a solder adhered to the adjacent portion.
Claims8
A communication apparatus comprising:
- a signal line that connects an antenna and a wireless communication module to each other, the signal line having a portion where the signal line is divided in part into sections, with an adjacent portion adjacent to the divided portion of the signal line being greater in line width than a main body portion of the signal line;
- a first ground pattern disposed to face the main body portion;
- and
- a second ground pattern disposed to face the adjacent portion,
- wherein the distance from the adjacent portion to the second ground pattern is longer than the distance from the main body portion to the first ground pattern, and
- the antenna and the wireless communication module are connected to each other through the signal line and a solder adhered to the adjacent portion.
A method of manufacturing a communication apparatus, the method comprising:
- forming a signal line, a first ground pattern, and a second ground pattern, the signal line being for connection between an antenna and a wireless communication module, the signal line having a portion where the signal line is divided in part into sections, with an adjacent portion adjacent to the divided portion of the signal line being greater in line width than a main body portion of the signal line, the first ground pattern facing the main body portion, and the second ground pattern facing the adjacent portion;
- connecting a measuring apparatus to the signal line at a position more on the wireless communication module side than the adjacent portion and performing measurement of the wireless communication module;
- and
- soldering the divided portion to connect the wireless communication module and the antenna to each other, after the measurement of the wireless communication module is performed.
