multiband antenna 110 is a multiband antenna having a single feeding point, and its basic form is similar to a microstrip or a dielectric material patch antenna. - As shown in
FIG. 3 , a dual band antenna from among themultiband antennas 110 includes adielectric material 111, afeeding point 112,patches slot 115, and a ground voltage (not shown). - The
patches dielectric material 111, and thepatch 114 surrounds thepatch 113. Here, a portion of thedielectric material 111 exposed between thepatch 113 and thepatch 114 functions as aslot 115.
