Abstract

PURPOSE:To realize a small sized antenna with self-resonance and excellent gain directivity performance by forming a coil whose size is sufficiently smaller than the wavelength as a loop and unfolding a conductor plate to the inside of the coil with an insulation film inbetween. CONSTITUTION:A coil 1 having a pitch (p), a width (w) and a height (h) sufficiently smaller than the wavelength is formed as a loop, feeding points 4, 4' are provided to both ends of the coil 1 and a conductor plate 3 is adhered to the inside of the loop with an insulation film 2 inbetween. Through the constitution above, as shown in figure, the coil 1 (width w=20mm, height h=2mm, pitch p=3mm, diameter d=nearly 5cm and total length = nearly 15cm) is in selfresonance near 280MHz and acts like an antenna whose band width is 5-6 MHz. Even when the dielectric substance is inserted in the loop, the change in the resonance frequency is not almost caused. Thus, even when the antenna is in use while being wound on an arm of a human body or the like, no gain decrease is caused and the excellent efficiency and directivity characteristic performance is attained.
