Abstract

An antenna device includes an antenna board in which a conductor pattern is provided on each of both surfaces of a dielectric substrate. A linear element is provided on a first surface of the dielectric substrate. A slit antenna is provided on a second surface of the dielectric substrate opposite to the first surface. When the first surface and the second surface are superimposed on each other, the linear element and a slit of the slit antenna overlap with each other.
