Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to an antenna and a communication apparatus that enables both near field communication using a magnetic field and near field communication using an electric field. The communication apparatus includes a first near field communication unit that performs communication in a non-contact manner using a magnetic field, a second near field communication unit that performs communication in a non-contact manner using an electric field, and an antenna shared by communication of the first near field communication unit and communication of the second near field communication unit. The present disclosure is applicable, for example, to near field communication in which communication using a magnetic field is performed in a non-contact manner, a communication apparatus that enables near field communication using an electric field in a non-contact manner, and the like.
