DUAL-POLARIZED RADIATING ELEMENT WITH ENHANCED ISOLATION FOR USE IN ANTENNA SYSTEM

摘要

A dual-polarized radiating element having a first dipole and a second dipole attached to a reflector. Each conductive first half dipole and each conductive second half dipole of each of the first and second dipoles having a first surface and an opposite second surface. In one embodiment, the first surface of each first half dipole extends offset to the first surface of the respective second half dipole. Each of dipoles includes a conductive element having a first side portion spaced apart from and secured to the first surface of the respective first half dipole and a second side portion spaced apart from and secured to the first surface of the respective second half dipole, and is connectible to an input signal so as to be capable of being electromagnetically coupled to the first and second dipoles.
