Wherein, radiating element subarray may include 4 radiating elements, i.e., a row may include that 4 radiation are single in aerial array 4 radiating elements can be connected by member with 4 duplexers one-to-one correspondence that duplexer submodule group includes, and connection same row radiation is single Second frequency range port of each duplexer of member is staggeredly connected with the second antenna feeding network, i.e., in connection same row radiating element In two neighboring duplexer, the second frequency range port of at most one duplexer connects same second antenna feeding network, in turn Beam angle caused by narrowing biggish electromagnetic coupling can be reduced.
Specifically, by duplexer multiplex radiation unit, it is (low that the working frequency range of radiating element is cut into two narrow frequency ranges Frequency range and high band), the combining port of duplexer connects radiating element, and the high band port of duplexer connects butler matrix list Member, and then the electric signal of radiating element can pass sequentially through duplexer and butler matrix is transmitted to multi-beam feeding network, passes through Multi-beam feeding network exports electric signal, and then realizes multi-beam function in the high frequency section of radiating element working frequency range;Duplex The low-frequency range port of device connects 65 ° of antenna feeding networks, and then the electric signal of radiating element is transmitted to 65 ° of antennas by duplexer Feeding network exports electric signal by 65 ° of antenna feeding networks, and then realizes in the low frequency part of radiating element working frequency range 65 ° of antenna functions, by (such as can be used electric bridge or the horizontal surface waves such as S-shaped is structured the formation using the array structure that interlocks in low frequency part Beam synthesis mode) so that antenna obtains more appropriate horizontal plane beam angle;By multibeam antenna to multiple ports and 65 ° of antennas of multiple ports merge, and are greatly reduced antenna volume.
Further, as shown in fig. 6, to mix another structural schematic diagram of multibeam antenna, first antenna feeding network For multi-beam feeding network, the second antenna feeding network is 65 ° of antenna feeding networks, and duplexer submodule group includes 2 duplexers, First frequency range port of duplexer is high band port (such as working frequency range is 2490-2690MHz), the second frequency range end of duplexer Mouth is low-frequency range port (such as working frequency range is 1400-2200MHz), and radiating element subarray may include 4 radiating elements.Radiation Unit is staggeredly chosen to be connected with duplexer, i.e., in the two neighboring duplexer of connection same row radiating element, at most one double Second frequency range port of work device connects same 65 ° of antenna feeding networks.By duplexer multiplex radiation unit, by radiating element Working frequency range be cut into two narrow frequency range (low-frequency range and high band), the high band port of duplexer connects butler matrix list The low-frequency range port of member, duplexer connects 65 ° of antenna feeding networks.And then it is realized in the high frequency section of radiating element working frequency range Multi-beam function;65 ° of antenna functions are realized in the low frequency part of radiating element working frequency range, while realizing antenna miniaturization.
It should be noted that radiating element, which staggeredly chooses connection duplexer, can be the staggeredly selection setting of full array, it can also To be that partial array staggeredly chooses setting.
In one example, above-mentioned mixing multibeam antenna uses dual-polarized antenna structure, and first antenna feeding network is adopted With dualbeam feeding network, the second antenna feeding network is 65 ° of antenna feeding networks, in mixing multi-beam day as shown in FIG. 6 In the structure basis of line, by adjusting the quantity and link position of duplexer, the two-beam antenna and 4 of 4 ports can be realized 65 ° of antennas fusion (showing in figure) of a port, is meeting antenna array signals covering, while realizing antenna miniaturization.
Further, as shown in fig. 7, to mix another structural schematic diagram of multibeam antenna, first antenna feeding network For multi-beam feeding network, the second antenna feeding network is 65 ° of antenna feeding networks, and duplexer submodule group includes 1 duplexer, First frequency range port of duplexer is high band port (such as working frequency range is 2490-2690MHz), the second frequency range end of duplexer Mouth is low-frequency range port (such as working frequency range is 1400-2200MHz), and radiating element subarray may include 4 radiating elements.Staggeredly It chooses corresponding radiating element to be connected with duplexer, i.e., in the two neighboring duplexer of connection same row radiating element, at most Second frequency range port of one duplexer connects same 65 ° of antenna feeding networks.By duplexer multiplex radiation unit, by spoke The working frequency range for penetrating unit is cut into two narrow frequency range (low-frequency range and high band), and the high band port of duplexer connects Butler The low-frequency range port of matrix unit, duplexer connects 65 ° of antenna feeding networks.And then in the radio-frequency head of radiating element working frequency range Divide and realizes multi-beam function;65 ° of antenna functions are realized in the low frequency part of radiating element working frequency range, while realizing that antenna is small-sized Change.
