Disclosed is a wideband antenna with a lowered standing wave ratio. The
wideband antenna interposes a substance whose conductivity is about 0.1
through 10.0 as an interposition between a reference conductor and a
radiation conductor; and thereby, the antenna reduces reflections of
signals, and achieves a wider bandwidth as well as a sufficient gain with
a lowered standing wave ratio. Also, the invention realizes a thin-type
wideband antenna with a wider bandwidth and a sufficient gain, by
interposing a magnetic substance whose relative permeability is more than
1 through about 8 as the interposition between the reference conductor
and the radiation conductor.
