Definitions

  • the invention relates to an antenna device, in particular an antenna antenna-shaped antenna device with a plurality of mutually offset at least in a cultivation direction rays, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Antenna devices in particular for stationary mobile phone stations, are well known.
  • an antenna device which is usually designed in the form of an antenna array, and for this purpose comprises a plurality of emitters, for example arranged offset from one another in the vertical direction, which are arranged in front of a reflector surface.
  • the entire reflector does not necessarily have to be arranged vertically, but can be oriented at a certain angle to the vertical.
  • the entire assembly is then housed in a housing referred to as radome, which for electromagnetic radiation as "transparent” or "quasi transparent "appears.
  • Such antenna devices are usually - as for example from the EP 1 601 046 A1 is known - anchored and mounted by means of at least two, in the longitudinal direction of the antenna device offset mounting plates or mounting lugs on poles, walls, etc.
  • the assembly approaches in question are usually firmly connected to the housing / radome or also have a solid continuous connection with the inner support structure of the antenna device, for example in the form of the reflector. This is often also possible without problems in such antennas, since the temperature-related length expansions with respect to the plastic material used for the radome and the metal parts are in a similar size arrangement, so here are no fundamental problems.
  • Such mobile stations mentioned initially allow mobile subscribers not only to handle the mobile telephone conversations, but also allow users to surf on the move, for example by means of GPRS, UMTS via WLAN hotspots and the like.
  • WiMAX Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access
  • two main applications can be integrated.
  • it is a stationary radio alternative the landline DSL, so a quasi wireless (wireless) DSL.
  • this technique can be described as a wide-area LAN, a type of WLAN (Wireless Metropolitan Access).
  • the main advantage, especially in the latter case is that the catchment area, ie the coverage area or generally the so-called hotspot of such a wireless base station is much larger and also significantly more distant mobile users on this base station, for example, can surf the Internet.
  • Such a hotspot can certainly supply a range of a few kilometers in diameter and enable network access in this area, via which ultimately communication via voice is also possible. Services and structure of the network are similar to a UMTS network.
  • this technique is not fixed or limited to particular frequency ranges, it can generally be said that it is an application area above a frequency of 2 GHz, for example in the 2 GHz range, but also in the 3.5 GHz range or even in the so-called 5.8 GHz range, etc.
  • the dimensions and in particular the radiators and the distances between the radiators are significantly smaller than in the conventional mobile radio ranges, for example in the 900 MHz range, in the 1800 to 1900 MHz range or, for example, in the UMTS range of about 2.3 GHz.
  • the materials commonly used for the antenna housing, the so-called radome quite well lead to a significant weakening of the electromagnetic radiation, ie to an undesirable attenuation when passing through such a radome.
  • the radiation is not only dampened, but also scattered. Furthermore, unwanted effects on the diagram itself are possible.
  • a generic antenna device is known from US 5,844,529 A known. It comprises a reflector which is covered by a radome.
  • the radome itself has on its sides lying on each one a projecting tongue or a projecting profile, about which the radome can be inserted into two grooves which are formed on outwardly facing side portions of the reflector. As a result, the radome is held displaceably relative to the reflector.
  • the antenna device is closed by two caps which can be placed on opposite end faces of the radome. It is provided that the one cap is firmly connected to the radome and the reflector, so that at this end the radome is not held displaceable relative to the reflector.
  • the opposite cap namely on the bottom the usually vertically extending antenna assembly provided cap attached only to the radome, so that according to the different thermal expansion coefficient radom here can perform a compensating movement relative to the reflector.
  • Thermoplastics have the serious disadvantage that they have significantly higher, temperature-related expansion coefficients, which differ significantly from the coefficients of expansion, in particular of the metals.
  • the radome shortens or lengthens by 4 mm, resulting in the example given, the maximum change in length of 8 mm.
  • the invention provides an improved constructive possibility, which takes into account these different temperature-induced expansions.
  • an antenna carrying and / or reflector device which is usually supported in the interior of a housing / radome at two points or regions offset from one another, is not firmly connected to the housing / radome, but that in addition to a fixed connection point at least one mounting device for the antenna support and / or reflector device is provided, which is provided with an inner length compensation device.
  • This inner length compensation device is constructed so that it allows a temperature-induced length expansion of the housing / radome relative to the antenna support and / or reflector device in the interior of the housing / radome.
  • an energy storage device is furthermore provided, over which mutually directed contact forces are exerted on the opposite end caps, which are seated on the opposite end faces on the housing / radome.
  • an outer length compensation device which makes it possible to attach a corresponding antenna device, in particular with a housing / radome, for example, to a mast, a housing, etc., so that here also a length extension of the housing / radome without impairment and damage is possible even if the external fastening devices are fixed in place.
