In an antenna apparatus, two pattern antennas are arranged side by side in an area close to a ground conductor layer on a surface of a dielectric substrate, in such a manner as to be formed substantially line-symmetrical with each other. Each of the pattern antennas includes a radiation element having a feed coupler, a mutual coupler, and a feed element fed by a high frequency circuit unit. An open end of the radiation element is located near the ground conductor layer. The feed element and the feed coupler are capacitively coupled with each other, whereby the radiation element is excited. At the excitation, the mutual couplers that extend substantially in parallel with and close to each other are capacitively coupled with each other, and hence, polarization planes of the electric fields radiated from the radiation elements can be made orthogonal to each other. |
