Abstract:
A dual-polarized antenna in which two antenna elements are highly integrated and the size of the whole antenna is reduced while suppressing coupling between the two antenna elements without having the two antenna elements overlap each other is provided. An antenna (10) includes a conductive reflector (101) and two antenna elements (102, 103) (antenna elements) that are arranged to be spaced apart from each other. As shown in FIG. 3, in a projected view on the conductive reflector (101), longitudinal directions of the two antenna elements (102, 103) are substantially orthogonal to each other. One of the end parts (110) of the antenna element (103) in the longitudinal direction is positioned at an approximate center (109) (part around the center) of the antenna element (102) in the longitudinal direction.
