Abstract
An antenna module 4 includes one antenna base 25 having a radiation surface 25a inclined relative to an opening plane 23 at which a radome 22 is attached, and another antenna base 25 having a radiation surface 25a inclined in a direction different from the one antenna base 25.
Claims8
An antenna module comprising:
- a first antenna having a first radiation surface inclined relative to a placement plane at which a radome is provided;
- a second antenna having a second radiation surface inclined in a direction different from the first antenna;
- a circuit substrate including a radio frequency (RF) circuit;
- a first bending portion having a band shape, the first bending portion connecting the first antenna to the circuit substrate to allow power to be fed between the first antenna and the circuit substrate;
- and
- a second bending portion having a band shape, the second bending portion connecting the second antenna to the circuit substrate to allow power to be fed between the second antenna and the circuit substrate,
- wherein the first bending portion connects an edge of a first side of the circuit substrate to an edge of the first antenna, and
- the second bending portion connects an edge of a second side of the circuit substrate to an edge of the second antenna.

An antenna module comprising:
- a first antenna having a first radiation surface inclined relative to a placement plane on which a radome is located;
- a second antenna having a second radiation surface inclined in a direction different from the first antenna;
- and
- a housing having a box shape and a first face forming the placement plane, the housing accommodating the first antenna and the second antenna,
- wherein the housing includes:
- retaining portions for retaining the first antenna and the second antenna with the first antenna and the second antenna being inclined,
- an opening at the first face;
- and
- a stepped portion that contacts with a peripheral edge of the radome and holding the peripheral edge, the stepped portion being at an end edge of the opening.
