Abstract

Disclosed is a wideband antenna with a lowered standing wave ratio. The wideband antenna interposes a substance whose conductivity is about 0.1 through 10.0 as an interposition between a conductive plate and a radiation conductor; and thereby, the antenna reduces reflections of signals, and achieves a wider bandwidth as well as a sufficient gain with a lowered standing wave ratio. Also, the invention realizes a thin-type wideband antenna with a wider bandwidth and a sufficient gain, by interposing a magnetic substance whose relative permeability is more than 1 through about 8 as the interposition between the conductive plate and the radiation conductor.

Claims (28)

1. A wideband antenna, comprising:

a reference conductor;

a radiation conductor, at least said radiation conductor being connected with a feed for transmitting power thereto, and at least parts of said reference conductor and said radiation conductor being disposed so as to face each other; and

a substance whose conductivity is about 0.1 [/Ωm] through 10 [/Ωm] in the operational radio frequency being interposed between the reference conductor and the radiation conductor of the wideband antenna.

2. A wideband antenna as claimed in claim 1 , wherein

the radiation conductor is in the form of a substantially flat plate, and is disposed in close proximity to and substantially in parallel to the reference conductor, which provides a very thin structure antenna.

3. A wideband antenna as claimed in claim 2 , wherein

a capacitor is loaded in series or parallel, or capacitors are loaded in series and parallel to a part connected to the feed.

4. A wideband antenna as claimed in claim 1 , wherein

said substance interposed between the reference conductor and the radiation conductor of the wideband antenna has a relative dielectric constant of ≦10.

5. A thin-type wideband antenna, comprising:

a reference conductor;

a radiation conductor, at least said radiation conductor being connected with a feed for transmitting a power thereto, and said reference conductor and said radiation conductor being disposed in close proximity and substantially in parallel to face each other; and

a magnetic substance whose relative permeability is more than 1 through about 8 in an operational radio frequency and whose relative dielectric constant is ≦10 is interposed between the reference conductor and the radiation conductor of the wideband antenna.

6. A thin-type wideband antenna as claimed in claim 5 , wherein

the conductivity of the magnetic substance in the operational radio frequency is about 0.1 [/Ωm] through 10 [/Ωm].

7. A thin-type wideband antenna as claimed in claim 4 or claim 6 , wherein,

a capacitor is loaded in series or parallel, or capacitors are loaded in series and parallel to a part connected to the feed.

8. A wideband antenna, comprising:

a first conducting means;

a second conducting means, at least said second conducting means being electrically linked with a means for transmitting power thereto, and at least parts of said first and second conducting means being disposed so as to face each other; and

a substance whose conductivity is about 0.1 [/Ωm] through 10 [/Ωm] in the operational radio frequency is interposed between the first and second conducting means of the wideband antenna.

9. A wideband antenna as claimed in claim 8 , wherein

said substance interposed between the first and second conducting means of the wideband antenna has a relative dielectric constant of ≦10.

10. A wideband antenna, comprising:

a first conducting means ;

a second conducting means, at least said second conducting means being electrically linked with a means for transmitting power thereto, and at least parts of said first and second conducting means being disposed so as to face each other; and

a substance whose relative permeability is more than 1 through about 8 in the operational radio frequency and whose relative dielectric constant is ≦10 is interposed between the first and second conducting means of the wideband antenna.
