Antenna integrated with solar battery

An antenna integrated with a solar battery comprising:

• the solar battery;
• an antenna having a radiation-element portion arranged above an upper side of the solar battery;
• a bottom-board portion arranged between the radiation-element portion and the solar battery in the vertical direction of the antenna;
• and
• a feed-line portion having a vertical feed-line portion and a horizontal feed-line portion, the horizontal feed-line portion being arranged between the bottom-board portion and the solar battery in the vertical direction of the antenna;
• wherein
• the radiation-element portion is made of metallic wire rods and formed in a net-like fashion;
• the wire rods are arranged to overlap an area for bus-bar electrodes and grid lines of the solar battery in a vertical direction of the antenna;
• each of the wire rods is arranged parallel to the bus-bar electrodes or the grid lines when viewed in the vertical direction of the antenna;
• the bottom-board portion is made of metallic wire rods and formed in a net-like fashion,
• each of the wire rods of the bottom-board portion is arranged parallel to the bus-bar electrodes or the grid lines when viewed in the vertical direction of the antenna;
• the horizontal feed-line portion of the feed-line portion is made of metallic wire rods and formed in a net-like fashion, and
• each of the wire rods of the horizontal feed-line portion is arranged parallel to the bus-bar electrodes or the grid lines when viewed in the vertical direction of the antenna.
