Phase-conjugate configuration of high-gain, dual-polarized sector antennas for a repeater

A phase-conjugate antenna system comprising:

• a first set of antenna elements configured to receive first signals, wherein said first set of antenna elements comprises a first receive antenna element having a first receive phase center and a second receive antenna element having a second receive phase center;
• and
• a second set of antenna elements configured to transmit second signals, wherein said second set of antenna elements comprises a first transmit antenna element having a first transmit phase center and a second transmit antenna element having a second transmit phase center,
• wherein said first receive antenna element and said first transmit antenna element are operatively connected such that the first receive phase center and the first transmit phase center are positioned along a first axis, and wherein said second receive antenna element and said second transmit antenna element are operatively connected such that the second receive phase center and the second transmit phase center are positioned along a second axis,
• wherein the disposition of said first set of antenna elements and said second set of antenna elements are mirror images about a predetermined plane through said antenna system such that said first receive antenna element is disposed a first distance from the predetermined plane and that said first transmit antenna element is disposed the first distance from the predetermined plane in a direction opposing the disposition of the first receive antenna element, and such that said second receive antenna element is disposed a second distance from the predetermined plane and that said second transmit antenna element is disposed the second distance from the predetermined plane in a direction opposing the disposition of the second receive antenna element, wherein the first distance is different than the second distance, and
• wherein a first midpoint between said first receive phase center and said first transmit phase center along the first axis is substantially coincident with a second midpoint between said second receive phase center and said second transmit phase center along the second axis.
