Abstract
In an antenna device, an isolation structure between antenna elements includes: a conductor on a surface of a dielectric substrate; and a plurality of via conductors that penetrate the dielectric substrate and electrically connect the conductor to the ground conductor. A value of (d1×2+h1)/(λ1/√εr) falls within a range from 0.40 to 0.60, where the dielectric substrate has a dielectric constant εr, a signal transmitted from the antenna element has a wavelength λ1 (mm), each via conductor has a height h1 (mm), and the conductor protrudes with a length d1 (mm) toward the antenna element.
Claims6
