Abstract
An antenna device for wireless LAN of the present invention includes a base module and an antenna case that receives a built-in antenna therein. A metal reflector plate is held in a base element of the base module. The reflector plate functions to widen the range of directivity of the antenna device and thus ensures stable communication for wireless LAN. The antenna case is pivotable to the base module. The antenna is adjustable to a desired angle according to the requirement, so as to attain communication for wireless LAN.
Claims9
A non-directivity antenna device for wireless LAN used in connection with a wireless LAN device, said antenna device comprising:
- a base module that has a predetermined bottom area;
