Abstract

Abstract In an antenna apparatus, a plurality of divisions of antenna elements (21-24) are formed on a radio apparatus cabinet (41) or on a substrate packaged on the surface of the radio apparatus cabinet (1), the divisions are interconnected together by coils (25-27), and a capacitor (28) is connected in parallel with at least one of the coils. The antenna apparatus is compact and tunable to a plurality of frequencies and has a high antenna gain.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 87 words
An antenna apparatus comprising: a plurality of divisions of antenna elements (21-24) formed on a radio apparatus cabinet (41) or on a substrate packaged on the surface of the radio apparatus cabinet (1); a plurality of inductance elements (25-27) for interconnecting together said divisions of antenna elements, said inductance elements being inductive lumped constant elements or distributed constant elements; and a capacitance element (28) connected in parallel with at least one of said inductance elements to form a resonance circuit which resonates with a frequency band used.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 20 words
Antenna apparatus according to Claim 1 wherein said antenna elements are put together by bending an antenna element or elements.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 72 words
An antenna apparatus comprising: a plurality of divisions (31-34) profuced by dividing a linear antenna (42); a plurality of lumped constant elements or distributed constant elements (35-37) having inductive inductance and adapted to interconnect together said divisions; and a capacitance element (38) connected in parallel with at least one of said interconnected inductive inductance elements, said inductance and capacitance elements in parallel connection being operable to resonate with a frequency band used.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 30 words
An antenna apparatus according to Claim 1 wherein values of said inductance and capacitance elements are set such that the antenna resonates with the highest one of different frequencies used.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 48 words
An antenna comprising: divisions of antenna elements (53-54) formed by print pattern technique on a printed wiring board (52) in the form of a film; and surface packaged type coils (57) for interconnecting together said divisions of antenna elements, said coils being effective to reduce the antenna length.
