Abstract
An improved antenna arrangement comprises at least a dipole-shaped radiator arrangement with the associated carrying device and/or balancing device and the associated dipole and/or radiator halves as well as the reflector or the part reflector or the reflector frame which are formed from a common part, and the material of this common part is electrically conductive or is provided with an electrically conductive surface or surface layer if it consists of a dielectric material.
Claims22
An antenna arrangement comprising:
- at least one dipole-shaped radiator arrangement, the dipole-shaped radiator arrangement comprising a carrying device and associated radiator halves,
- a reflector arrangement having an electrically conductive reflector face, the reflector arrangement comprising at least a part of a reflector and plural holding webs electrically and mechanically rigidly connected thereto,
- the at least one dipole-shaped radiator arrangement with the associated carrying device and the associated radiator halves as well as the reflector arrangement being formed from a common part, material of said common part being electrically conductive or provided with an electrically conductive surface,
- the reflector arrangement defining a recess, in the region of which, transversely and perpendicularly to the plane of the reflector arrangement, the carrying device of the dual-polarized radiator arrangement extends, and
- the carrying device is mechanically rigidly and electrically connected with the plural holding webs arranged offset in a direction that is peripheral to the reflector arrangement surrounding the recess.
