Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an antenna device used in a base station for mobile communication, and more particularly to a so-called variable-tilt antenna device designed to adjust beam tilt for each band in an adjacent frequency band.
For example, in the antenna system disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Nos. 2006-12625 and 2000-10139, one displacement device is shared so that a beam tilt is generated in a plurality of frequency bands There is a problem that characteristics or demands of each band are not taken into account in beam tilting.
Therefore, an antenna device capable of independently varying the beam tilt for each frequency band is required. As an example suggested by this need, there is an antenna system disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-12625.
1 schematically shows an antenna system disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-12625 for convenience. This system 1 is an apparatus for transmitting and receiving two frequency bands, and includes an
The system arranges the
However, the system 1 includes
Accordingly, an antenna device capable of beam tilt by each band is required in one antenna device, and an example thereof is a phased array antenna disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-4928. In an apparatus having such a function, an element array, a phase shifter, a duplexer, or the like is usually used. By appropriately arranging these elements, it is possible to perform beam tilt for each band in one antenna apparatus.
However, there is a problem in that the number of elements used in such an antenna apparatus is large, and in particular, there is a problem in that no measures are taken against different beam characteristics for each band.
2, the
The present invention has been proposed to solve the problems of the conventional antenna apparatus or system. It is an object of the present invention to provide a method of compensating for a beam characteristic so that a service shadow region for a low frequency band does not appear particularly in a case where a beam tilt can be varied independently for each frequency band, And to provide a designed antenna device.
In the variable tilt antenna apparatus of the present invention,
1. An antenna device comprising an antenna having a plurality of frequency bands and a linear array element for transmitting and receiving in a plurality of frequency bands and a displacer provided for each frequency band and controlling a signal phase for each band,
A first duplexer provided at the input / output port side and connected to each of the transmitter and demultiplexes the transmission signal for each band and transmits the resultant signal to the respective displacer,
A plurality of second duplexers provided on the respective device sides and connected to the respective demultiplexers, for transmitting the transmission signals phase-controlled for each band in each of the demultiplexers to the device,
/ RTI >
The antenna further includes a low frequency receiving element connected to the outside of the end element of the array only to a low frequency band displayer of the transformer, and the low frequency receiving element and the adjacent end element are connected to a power distributor divider, respectively;
.
Preferably, the antenna is connected to a power divider in which an element or a part thereof is provided between the input / output port and the first duplexer, excluding both terminal elements of the element array, Designed to be connected to the output port.
According to the antenna apparatus of the present invention, the antenna further includes a low-frequency receiving element connected to only the low-frequency band displayer of the plurality of displacers outside the terminal element of the array. By using this low-frequency receiving element, in principle, the low-frequency band beam characteristic having a relatively wide beam width and low gain can be made similar to the beam characteristic of the high-frequency band as compared with the high frequency band. Therefore, there is an effect that the service shadow region for the low frequency band is not displayed.
Also in a preferred example, the antenna is configured such that some of its element arrays are directly connected to the input / output ports without going through a duplexer configuration. As a result, compared with the case of passing through other structures such as a duplexer, a more compact design can be achieved and power loss can be effectively reduced.
