1. An antenna module, comprising:
a first radiating element; and
a dielectric substrate,
wherein the dielectric substrate includes
a first flat portion on which an external terminal is disposed,
a second flat portion in which the first radiating element is disposed,
a bent portion that connects the first flat portion and the second flat portion to each other,
a first feeder that extends through the first flat portion, the bent portion, and the second flat portion so as to connect the external terminal and the first radiating element to each other, and
a first ground electrode that extends through the first flat portion, the bent portion, and the second flat portion along the first feeder, and
wherein at the bent portion, the first feeder has a thickness greater than a thickness of the first ground electrode.
