Abstract: A parasitic element for a phased-array antenna radiator is provided. The radiator comprises a first dipole radiator including two coplanar monopole radiating elements disposed symmetrically about a radiation axis, a second dipole radiator, arranged orthogonally with respect to the first dipole radiator, including two coplanar radiating elements disposed symmetrically about the radiation axis, and a parasitic gain element, having a substantially elliptical shape, disposed above the first and second dipole radiators and centered on the radiation axis.

Abstract: A phased-array antenna radiator for a super economical cellular communication system is provided. The phased-array antenna radiator comprises two dipole radiators. The first dipole radiator includes a first monopole radiating element supported by a first outer conductor, a second monopole radiating element supported by a second outer conductor, a first inner conductor, disposed within the first outer conductor and extending therethrough, having an upper termination, a first feed strap, attached to the upper termination of the first inner conductor, and a first stub, disposed within the second outer conductor and attached to the first feed strap.

Abstract: A phased-array antenna panel for a super economical broadcast system is provided. The phased-array antenna panel system includes an antenna panel support member, a first pair of striplines and a second pair of striplines. The antenna panel support member includes a front reflector surface to support first and second columns of constantly-spaced, crossed-dipole radiators, a first pair of signal ground cavities disposed beneath the first column of crossed-dipole radiators, a second pair of signal ground cavities disposed beneath the second column of crossed-dipole radiators, and a rear surface including first and second pairs of signal distribution cable connectors. The first pair of striplines are respectively disposed within the first pair of signal ground cavities and are coupled to the first pair of signal distribution connectors and the first column of crossed-dipole radiators.
