Abstract

An antenna device includes a first conductive plate in a board shape, a second conductive plate in a board shape, a short-circuiting section, and a connecting section. The second conductive plate is disposed to face the first conductive plate with a space therebetween. The short-circuiting section is disposed between the first conductive plate and the second conductive plate, has a housing space housing an electronic component, and is connected to both the first conductive plate and the second conductive plate. The connecting section extends from the electronic component disposed inside the short-circuiting section toward the outside of the short-circuiting section without being electrically connected to the short-circuiting section and the first conductive plate, and extends between the first conductive plate and the second conductive plate from the outside of the short-circuiting section without being electrically connected to the first conductive plate, to be electrically connected to the second conductive plate.

Claims (15)

1. An antenna device comprising:

a first conductive plate that is a conductor formed in a board shape;

a second conductive plate that is a conductor formed in a board shape and disposed to face the first conductive plate with a space therebetween;

a short-circuiting section that is a conductor disposed between the first conductive plate and the second conductive plate, has a housing space formed for housing an electronic component, and is connected to both the first conductive plate and the second conductive plate; and

a connecting section that is a conductor that extends from the electronic component disposed inside the short-circuiting section toward the outside of the short-circuiting section without being electrically connected to the short-circuiting section and the first conductive plate, and extends between the first conductive plate and the second conductive plate from the first conductive plate toward the second conductive plate or from the second conductive plate toward the first conductive plate without being electrically connected to the first conductive plate, to be electrically connected to the second conductive plate, wherein

the electronic component is exposed to outside of the antenna device through the housing space.

2. The antenna device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a dielectric member that is disposed between the first conductive plate and the second conductive plate and has a through hole configuring the housing space, wherein

the short-circuiting section includes a plurality of through hole conductors that are disposed outside the through hole so as to surround the through hole, and that extend through the dielectric member.

3. The antenna device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

the connecting section includes

a first part that has an end connected to the electronic component and extends toward the outside of the short-circuiting section, and

a second part that has an end connected to the second conductive plate and extends toward the first conductive plate.

4. The antenna device according to claim 1 , wherein

the housing space is covered by the short-circuiting section and the second conductive plate except for a portion through which the electronic component is exposed to outside of the antenna device.
