  • the dipole radiators can have a simple dipole structure or consist of a crossed dipole or a dipole square. So-called vector dipoles, as they are known for example from the WO 00/39894 A1 or the WO 2004/100315 A1 are known.
  • patchmeters should also be mentioned that can emit single or dual polarization. It should also be noted that the mentioned principle can be used for all types of emitters which are used for array antennas, thus for example for dielectric emitters, aperture emitters, slot emitters etc. Restrictions do not exist in this respect.
  • Monoband antennas as well as dual-band antennas or multi-band antennas have become known in the prior art.
  • Such dual-band antennas often operate in the so-called 900 MHz and 1800 MHz or 1900 MHz band, for example, in frequency ranges from about 800 MHz to 1000 MHz on the one hand and 1700 MHz to 2200 MHz on the other hand.
  • emitters are then provided which radiate, for example, in a lower frequency band around 900 MHz on the one hand and in addition emitters which radiate in a higher frequency band, for example in a 1800 MHz or 1900 MHz band.
  • broadband radiators which are used in particular in a high-frequency range, that is, for example, in a range of more than 1700 MHz to, for example, 2700 MHz.
  • broadband radio frequency emitters that can transmit and / or receive in a wide continuous frequency band.
  • broadband antenna arrays which are operable in a range of 1710 MHz to 2690 MHz or, for example, in a range of 698 MHz to 960 MHz, then such broadband radiators can cover continuous frequency ranges which, for example, in the former case have a frequency spectrum of 1100 MHz and in the latter case of 829 MHz.

  • an improvement for the suppression of the side lobes by optimizing the column spacing is made possible by the fact that additional radiators are provided in the at least two fixed antenna column spacing antenna columns, ie in each case at least one additional radiator, the only for a higher frequency band or frequency subband in the broadband Frequency spectrum is operated. These operated only in a higher spectrum or partial spectrum of the entire broadband spectrum Additional emitters or additional emitter groups are arranged in a smaller (adapted for the higher frequencies) column spacing from each other, compared with the emitter or column spacing with which the individual emitters and emitter groups are otherwise arranged in the individual antenna columns of the antenna array. These additional radiators for the high-frequency band or subband or for the higher frequency range or frequency subrange are fed via filters that serve as high pass.
  • the broadband, in the antenna array provided in an antenna column radiators or groups of radiators and provided in the respective antenna column additional radiator in the contrast high-frequency sub-spectrum are fed together, optionally with the interposition of phase shifter devices or -Gliedern for setting a different down -Tilt angle.

  • the mechanical gap spacing between two antenna gaps for example between 0.2 and 1.5 of the wavelength, may be used, the corresponding wavelength being related to the center frequency and the center of the respective radiators covering the entire broadband frequency range. This range is preferably between 0.4 to 0.8 wavelengths.

  • the invention is particularly suitable for high-frequency broadband antenna arrays.
  • the invention can therefore be used preferably in a range above about 1700 MHz.
  • the supply of the high-frequency additional radiator which are operated only in a high frequency band, can be selected or set differently, in particular in relation to the broadband base radiators. So all radiators can be fed with the same power. But it is also possible that, for example, the additional, radiating in a high frequency sub-band radiators are fed with twice as high power as the remaining base radiator. This also allows different electrical gap distances pretend and generate.
  • the antenna arrays can be designed both for the transmitting and for the receiving operation.
  • individual emitters and emitter groups can be provided only for the transmitting and other emitters and emitter groups only for the receiving operation.
  • the emitters or emitter groups provided in each case for the transmission as well as for the reception mode can have the same design or else be constructed differently. This also applies to the number of antenna columns used.
  • the radiators for the higher frequency band are twice as many as the radiators for the lower frequency band because, for example, the radiators in the lower frequency band in a 900 MHz band and the radiators for the higher frequency band, for example transmit and / or receive in the 1800 MHz band, as expressly stated in this prior publication becomes.

In this respect, reference is made to known solutions.
  • Such an antenna array 1 usually comprises a reflector 7 which then extends vertically or at least approximately vertically according to the preferred vertical orientation of the antenna array. Before this reflector 7 are then in FIG. 1 arranged emitters or emitter groups arranged.
  • a radiator group 9 is provided in the left as well as in the right-hand antenna column 5, ie, 5a, 5b, each at a vertical distance above each other, which consists of at least one radiator 11 or at least comprises a radiator 11.

  • the reflector may also consist of a printed circuit board, which may be coated with a corresponding electrically conductive layer in the form of a metallization.
  • FIG. 2 is a schematic side view of the antenna array according to FIG. 1 to see. It can also be seen from this that the antenna columns or the reflector 7 can be surrounded or bounded by webs 15 which rise relative to the reflector plane 7 'and which are oriented perpendicular or inclined to the reflector plane 7'.
