Abstract:
1. An antenna apparatus, comprising: a leaky coaxial cable; a superimposing circuit that provides a transmitted signal obtained by superimposing a high-frequency signal with a direct current voltage to a first end of the leaky coaxial cable; an isolating circuit that is connected to a second end of the leaky coaxial cable and isolates the direct current voltage from the transmitted signal before being transmitted by the leaky coaxial cable; a holder that holds a mobile terminal receiving a radio wave radiated from the leaky coaxial cable when the high-frequency signal is provided, the mobile terminal having a function of charging a battery by external power supply; a power supply apparatus that provides the direct current voltage isolated by the isolating circuit to the mobile terminal as a voltage for operating the mobile terminal held by the holder; a human sensor which detects a proximity of a person; and switch which disconnects supply of the direct current voltage to the mobile terminal from the power supply apparatus when the proximity is not detected by the human sensor, regardless of whether the mobile terminal is held by the holder or not.
