  • Canister antenna producing a pseudo-omni radiation pattern for mitigating passive intermodulation (PIM)
    Patent number: 9712259
    Abstract: A canister antenna including a radar transparent housing disposed about an axis and enclosing an antenna assembly having a plurality of integrated radiating elements. The radiating elements are configured to: (ii) produce a pseudo-omnidirectional radiation pattern of RF energy about the axis and (ii) selectively orient at least one null along a radial of the axis.
    Type: Grant

  • ANTENNA HAVING A BEAM INTERRUPTER FOR INCREASED THROUGHPUT
    Publication number: 20170194704
    Abstract: A telecommunications antenna including a conductive ground plane, at least one radiator, and Electromagnetic Energy (EME) interrupter. The radiator is disposed in combination with the conductive ground plane and produces a beam pattern indicative of the performance/throughput of the radiator. The EME interrupter electrically connects to the conductive ground plane and is operative to electrically inhibit the transmission/reception of electromagnetic energy within a sector of the beam pattern. In one embodiment, the EME interrupter inhibits the transmission of energy within a sector of between about one degree (1°) to about twenty degrees (20°).

  • Wireless antenna traffic matrix
    Patent number: 7245938
    Abstract: A beam shaping antenna matrix for use in wireless cell towers that is manually-configured at a patch panel by a wireless operator based on selection of a desired beam size and point of direction. The traffic matrix allows a wireless operator to sculpt and resculpt the beams to accommodate demographic or other changes preferably without a large amount of hardware or intensive processing capability.
