Antenna apparatus and article management system

摘要

According to an aspect of the invention, there is provide an antenna apparatus including: a conductive element including one end connected to a ground plane via a terminating resistor and the other end to which a power is supplied; and at least one branch conductive element branching from the conductive element and having a tip end which is short-circuited to the ground plane, and an element length of the branch conductive element being approximately a quarter wavelength of an operation frequency.
