Description

一种天线装置及通信装置
本申请要求在2017年12月11日提交国家专利局、申请号为201711311229.7、发明名称为“一种天线装置及通信装置”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及天线技术领域,尤其涉及一种天线装置及通信装置。
背景技术
随着互联网业务的发展,人们对宽带上网的需求越来越高,有些地方由于不方便部署线缆(光纤、铜线等)或者由于部署成本比较高,所以很多运营商采用无线宽带技术来解决用户的上网问题。在一些农村和偏远地区,人口比较稀疏,运营商在这些地方建设的基站的间距一般比较大,并选择具备高增益天线的客户终端设备(Customer Premise Equipment,CPE)来部署在用户家里,以保证广覆盖场景下的用户体验。
室外型终端安装时需要对准基站,目前普遍采用定向天线设计以提升增益,所以在安装时需要安装人员具备一定的专业能力,将定向天线的主波瓣对准基站,以获得最优的性能。所以如果考虑安装时免对准,一般考虑CPE采用全向天线设计,但是全向天线的增益比较低,从而降低天线的性能。如果室外型终端采用可旋转的定向天线,则需要内置电机带动天线旋转,从而旋转至最优方向。由于内置电机的存在,导致室外型终端的尺寸增大,给安装增加比较多的困难。同时内置电机旋转带来射频连接头的接触,会使得天线的可靠性降低。
综上,如何设计一种天线,降低室外型终端的安装复杂度,提高天线的增益,是一个亟待解决的问题。
