MULTIPLE-INPUT MULTIPLE-OUTPUT ANTENNA AND BROADBAND DIPOLE RADIATING ELEMENT THEREFORE

摘要

An antenna, including a ground plane, a dielectric substrate formed on the ground plane, a broadband dual-polarized dipole radiating element located on the dielectric substrate, a horizontally polarized dipole radiating element located on the dielectric substrate adjacent to the broadband dual-polarized dipole radiating element and having a projection parallel to a first axis, which first axis intersects the broadband dual-polarized dipole radiating element, a vertically polarized dipole radiating element located on the dielectric substrate adjacent to the broadband dual-polarized dipole radiating element and having a projection parallel to a second axis, which second axis intersects the broadband dual-polarized dipole radiating element and is orthogonal to the first axis and a feed network for feeding the broadband dual-polarized, vertically and horizontally polarized dipole radiating elements.
