Abstract

The structure includes a first conductor that extends in a second direction; a second conductor, a third conductor, a fourth conductor, and a feeding line. The second conductor faces the first conductor in a first direction and extends along the second direction. The third conductor is configured to capacitively connect the first conductor and the second conductor. The fourth conductor is configured to be electrically connected to the first conductor and the second conductor and extends along a first plane. The feeding line is connected to the third conductor. The feeding line includes a first constituting part that extends along the first direction, and a second constituent part that extends along the second direction. The first constituting part is positioned on an inside of both ends of the fourth conductor in a third direction.

Claims (24)

1. A structure, comprising:

a first conductor that extends in a second direction;

a second conductor that faces the first conductor in a first direction and that extends along the second direction;

a third conductor that is configured to capacitively connect the first conductor and the second conductor;

a fourth conductor that is configured to be electrically connected to the first conductor and the second conductor, and that extends along a first plane; and

a feeding line that is connected to the third conductor, wherein

the feeding line includes

a first constituting part that extends along the first direction, and

a second constituent part that extends along the second direction,

the first constituting part is positioned on an inside of both ends of the fourth conductor in a third direction, and extends in the first direction at a position different from a center of the fourth conductor in the third direction,

the first constituting part is positioned at an end portion of the fourth conductor in the third direction, and

an electric current that flows in the fourth conductor in a resonating state flows along the first constituting part.

2. The structure according to claim 1 , further comprising a mounting board that faces the fourth conductor with a distance therebetween, wherein

the first constituting part faces the mounting board with a further distance therebetween.

3. The structure according to claim 1 , further comprising a base in contact with the first conductor, the second conductor, the third conductor, and the fourth conductor, wherein the first constituting part includes a portion exposed to outside of the base.

4. An antenna, comprising the structure according to claim 1 .

5. A wireless communication module, comprising:

the antenna according to claim 4 ; and

an RF module that is configured to be electrically connected to the antenna.

6. A wireless communication device, comprising:

the wireless communication module according to claim 5 ; and

a battery that is configured to supply electric power to the wireless communication module.

7. The structure according to claim 1 , wherein

the feeding line is coplanar with the fourth conductor.
