Abstract

An antenna device includes a first conductive piece, a second conductive piece, a third conductive piece and a feeding point. The second conductive piece is electrically coupled to a predetermined voltage level. The third conductive piece is electrically connected to the first conductive piece and the second conductive piece. The feeding point is located on the first conductive piece.

Claims (26)
