1. An antenna device, comprising:
- a feeding conductor;
a first conductor which is disposed at a predetermined distance from the feeding conductor;
a second conductor which is disposed at a predetermined distance from the feeding conductor at an opposite side to the first conductor; and
a plurality of connection elements which connect the second conductor and the feeding conductor, wherein the plurality of connection elements can be switched on and off, respectively, andwherein each of the plurality of connection elements is turned on when a strength of a received radio wave is larger than a predetermined threshold value, and turned off when the strength of the received radio wave is smaller than the threshold value.

Abstract
Both ends of a feeder and both ends of a reflector of an antenna device are connected using a pair of diodes. When the diodes are turned on, a loop antenna is formed which loops the feeder, the diode, the reflector, a capacitor, and the diode, and the antenna device operates as the loop antenna. When the diodes are turned off, the antenna device operates as a Yagi-Uda antenna which is formed of the feeder, the reflector, and a wave guide.
