A compact antenna and a communication apparatus using the same are provided. An antenna includes a strip-shaped conductor in which a plurality of strip-shaped m-th order elements, where m is an integer of 3 or more, are sequentially connected to one another. Herein n-th order elements constituting the strip-shaped conductor, where n is all integers equal to or more than 2 and equal to or less than m, are configured to be p n-th order elements into which an (n-1)-th order element is divided, where p is an integer of 3 or more, and the n-th order elements divided into p have bent shapes at respective boundary parts between the n-th order elements and are located so that a vector direction from one end of the (n-1)-th order element to the other end thereof does not vary. A compact high-performance antenna is obtained.
