Abstract

Abstract In a receiving loop antenna especially adapted for use as a built-in antenna of a portable wireless set and of the type wherein the antenna output terminals are so tapped that power matching impedance of the wireless set may be attained, a circuit having series resonant circuit characteristics and a transmission line connected in series with the circuit and having such a length that impedance matching may be obtained, which may minimize the noise at or in the proximity of the center frequency of the frequency band of the series resonant circuit, are inserted between the antenna output terminals and the input terminals of the wireless set.
