MULTI-ELEMENT TELECOMMUNICATIONS ANTENNA

摘要

A telecommunications antenna comprising a conductive ground plane and at least one pair of broadband radiator mounted, and electrically connected, to the conductive ground plane. Each of the broadband radiators includes first and second dipole elements wherein the first dipole element is tuned to a first broadband frequency and the second dipole element is tuned to a second broadband frequency. At least one of the dipole elements associated with one broadband radiator is spatially positioned relative to the respective dipole element of the other broadband radiator to minimize electrical coupling therebetween. Dipole elements tuned to the same frequency on each broadband radiator are oriented orthogonally to the mitigate electrical coupling across the dipole elements.
