Abstract
A gate antenna device has a plurality of loop antennas which supplies power and transmission data to an IC-integrated medium through electromagnetic induction and acquires reception data in the form of a fluctuation of a load from the IC-integrated medium. The plurality of loop antennas include a power-fed loop antenna to which a signal current is supplied and a non-power-fed loop antenna to which no signal current is supplied. The gate antenna device expands the distance and range of communication with an IC-integrated medium and improves the accuracy of communication while suppressing power consumption and leakage electric fields.
