However, the above-mentioned conventional surface mount antenna requires a step of providing a through-hole and a complicated step of forming a radiation electrode on the inner periphery of the through-hole. There was a problem that the cost was increased. In addition, the radiation resistance and reactance component of the radiation electrode formed on the inner periphery of the through-hole are caused by the diameter of the through-hole. To reduce these components, when the diameter of the through-hole is reduced, the It is difficult to form a radiation electrode on the inner periphery of the through hole, and there is also a problem that the design of characteristic parameters is limited. Further, there is another problem that only a straight hole can be formed in the through hole, and the length of the radiation electrode cannot be increased.
