Abstract
A wireless communication equipment installation for wireless communication equipment includes a 5G New Radio (NR) antenna and a shroud member. The 5G NR antenna includes a radiating element configured to transmit radio signals at frequencies greater than 24 GHz. The shroud member comprises a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) substrate. The radiating element is configured to emit and receive radio signals through the shroud member.
Claims28
A wireless communication equipment installation for wireless communication equipment comprising:
- a 5G New Radio (NR) antenna including a radiating element configured to transmit radio signals at frequencies greater than 24 GHz;
- and
- a shroud member, wherein the shroud member comprises a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) substrate;
- wherein the radiating element is configured to emit and receive radio signals through the shroud member.
(canceled)
A wireless communication equipment installation, comprising:
- wireless communication equipment including a radiating element configured to emit radio signals;
- and
- a concealment system including:
- a shroud member disposed adjacent the radiating element and in the path of the radio signals emitted from the radiating element, the shroud member having a multilayer construction and including:
- a core layer having a front surface and an opposing rear surface;
- and
- a skin layer covering the front or rear surface of the core layer;
- wherein:
- the skin layer comprises a non-foamed polyvinyl chloride (PVC);
- and
- the core layer comprises a foamed PVC;
- wherein the radiating element is configured to emit and receive radio signals through the shroud member.
-23. (canceled)
A wireless communication equipment installation, comprising:
- wireless communication equipment including a radiating element configured to emit radio signals;
- and
- a concealment system including:
- a base concealment member;
- an aperture defined in the base concealment member;
- and
- a shroud member mounted in or over the aperture;
- wherein:
- the shroud member is disposed adjacent the radiating element and in the path of radio signals emitted from the radiating element;
- the base concealment member is formed of a first material;
- the shroud member is formed of a second material that is different from the first material;
- and
- the second material is less attenuating of the radio signals emitted from the radiating element than the first material.
