Claim 0:
1. A distributed antenna comprising:
a strip member extending in a strip-like shape including a dielectric body of a plate shape having a first surface that is one surface of the dielectric body and a second surface that is opposite to the first surface;
a transmission line provided on the first surface, on the second surface, or between the first surface and the second surface;
a plurality of antenna elements electrically connected to the transmission line and disposed in a distributed manner on the first surface or on the second surface, or electrically connected to the transmission line and disposed in a distributed manner between the first surface and the second surface;
a signal processing circuit provided on the strip member, the signal processing circuit processing a signal transmitted to the transmission line, the signal processing circuit including a plurality of amplifiers and a plurality of mixers that up-convert or down-convert a signal transmitted to the transmission line; and
a power wiring provided on the strip member, the power wiring supplying power that drives the signal processing circuit,
wherein the strip member includes a flexible member having flexibility,
wherein a transmission distance between an antenna element of the plurality of antenna elements and a mixer of the plurality of mixers is greater than 0.8 m.
