Patent attributes
Antenna elements are arranged in line on a surface of a substrate at specific intervals along a longitudinal direction of the substrate. A phase-inverting distributor is formed on the surface of the substrate in an area located between two antenna elements which are closest to and located on both sides of a vertical centerline, or a reference line, of the substrate. A primary feeder line formed along the longitudinal direction of the substrate extends from the phase-inverting distributor on both left and right sides thereof. The individual antenna elements are connected to the primary feeder line by secondary feeder lines having predetermined impedances. The secondary feeder lines are connected to the respective antenna elements on sides thereof which are perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the substrate and face the reference line on which the phase-inverting distributor is located.
