An antenna feeding network for a multi radiator antenna is provided. The antenna feeding network comprises at least one coaxial line. Each coaxial line comprises a central inner conductor and an elongated outer conductor surrounding the central inner conductor, wherein at least one of the outer conductors of the coaxial lines is provided with an opening, wherein the antenna feeding network further comprises at least one nonconductive holding element configured to be placed in the opening. The holding element is configured to hold at least one of the inner conductors in position. The invention further relates to a multi radiator antenna comprising such an antenna feeding network, and to a method for providing an electrical connection in such an antenna feeding network.
An antenna feeding network for a multi radiator antenna, the antenna feeding network comprising at least two coaxial lines, wherein each coaxial line comprises a central inner conductor and an elongated outer conductor surrounding the central inner conductor, wherein at least two of the outer conductors of said coaxial lines each are provided with an opening, wherein said antenna feeding network further comprises at least one non-conductive holding element configured to be placed in the openings, further comprising connecting means in the form of a connector device, wherein said non-conductive holding element comprises at least one passage adapted to receive said connector device which is configured to electrically interconnect the two inner conductors, and wherein said holding element is configured to hold the connector device in position and to engage and hold the inner conductors in said at least two outer conductors in position.
A multi radiator antenna comprising an electrically conductive reflector, at least one radiating element arranged on a front side of said reflector and an antenna feeding network, said radiating elements being connected to said antenna feeding network, the antenna feeding network comprising at least two coaxial lines, wherein each coaxial line comprises a central inner conductor and an elongated outer conductor surrounding the central inner conductor, wherein at least two of the outer conductors of said coaxial lines each are provided with an opening, wherein said antenna feeding network further comprises at least one non-conductive holding element configured to be placed in the openings, further comprising connecting means in the form of a connector device, wherein said non-conductive holding element comprises at least one passage adapted to receive said connector device which is configured to electrically interconnect the two inner conductors, and wherein said holding element is configured to hold the connector device in position and to engage and hold the inner conductors in said at least two outer conductors in position.
A method for providing an electrical connection in an antenna feeding network for a multi radiator antenna, said antenna feeding network comprising at least two coaxial lines, wherein each coaxial line comprises a central inner conductor and an elongated outer conductor surrounding the central inner conductor, said method comprising:
