  • Antenna array of inverted-L elements optionally for use as a base station antenna
    Patent number: 9692141
    Abstract: An antenna for receiving and/or transmitting electromagnetic radiation, e.g. circularly polarized waves. The antenna is built of three parts. A radiating element in the form of a sequentially rotated array of 4 dual inverted-L shaped surfaces, where each individual radiating element is fed with the same magnitude and a 90° sequential phase difference for the purpose of creating right or left hand circular polarization. A ground plane. And optionally, a structure that resembles a dual so-called choke ring structure on which the array is mounted. This structure improves the axial ratio and radiating pattern of the radiating elements and also serves as housing/shielding of the accompanying electronics like low noise amplifiers and power conditioning.
    Type: Grant

  • Circularly polarized antenna and feeding network
    Patent number: 9590319
    Abstract: An antenna for transmitting and/or receiving electromagnetic waves having a flat ground plane, and an array of radiating and/or receiving elements. The radiating and/or receiving element has a planar conductor which is arranged in parallel to the ground plane. An L-shaped slot is arranged in the planar conductor.
