Shorted microstrip antenna
Abstract
Abstract A low and broadband shorted microstrip antenna is disclosed which is mainly applicable to a mobile body in a mobile communication system. A first grounding conductive sheet (42) which faces a radiating conductive sheet (48) is provided at both ends thereof with a second (44) and a third (46) grounding conductive sheets which are perpendicular to the first grounding conductive sheet, whereby a beam tilt characteristic of the antenna is improved. A passive element (52) and a conductive stub (62) which is provided on the grounding conductive sheet, which faces the radiating conductive element, serve to improve an impedance matching characteristic.
