Antenna apparatus and communication system

An antenna device comprising:

• a first element which is provided with a feeding point for drawing power and has a bent or curved shape;
• a second element which is installed side by side with said first element and has a bent or curved shape;
• a suspended electrode disposed in opposing relation to said first element and said second element;
• an earth ground disposed in opposing relation to said suspended electrode, being located across said suspended electrode from said first element and said second element;
• a first connecting electrode for connecting one end of said first element to said suspended electrode;
• and
• a second connecting electrode for connecting one end of said second element to said suspended electrode, and
• wherein said first and second connecting electrodes are displaced with respect to each other in the plane which includes said bent or curved shapes.
