Abstract

An antenna array and a method are disclosed. The antenna array comprises: a plurality of active antenna elements, each active antenna element being separated by a predetermined first spacing distance; and a plurality of passive antenna elements, each passive antenna element being separated by a predetermined second spacing distance. By providing both active and passive antenna elements, multiple networks can be supported by the same antenna array. Providing a dual network antenna significantly simplifies base station provision since existing base station sites may be reused more readily. Also, the number of antenna arrays which need to be provided at those base stations sites may be significantly reduced, thereby reducing mast head congestion and also reducing mast head loadings since the mass of the dual antenna array and its wind loading characteristics will be significantly less than that of two separate antenna arrays.
