Patent number: 11804662Abstract: A telecommunications antenna comprising a plurality of unit cells each including at least one radiator which transmits RF energy within a bandwidth range which is a multiple of another radiator. The radiators are proximal to each other such that a resonant condition may be induced into the at least one radiator upon activation of the other radiator. At least one of the radiators is segmented into capacitively-connected radiator elements to suppress a resonance response therein upon activation of the other of the radiator.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2021Date of Patent: October 31, 2023Assignee: John Mezzalingua Associates, LLCInventors: Taehee Jang, Lance D. Bamford, Kevin T. Le, Evan C. Wayton, Cody J. Anderson, Jordan Ragos, Niranjan Sundararajan

Modular unit cell construction for a high performance, low profile (HPLP) telecommunications antenna
Patent number: 10320092Abstract: A unit cell for an antenna comprises a conductive ground plane, a low-band radiator, a pair of high-band radiators, and a conductive partition disposed along an edge intersecting a pitch axis of the conductive ground plane. The low-band radiator comprises a pair of orthogonally coupled dipoles each having a vertical stem portion and an arm portion. Each arm disposed in a plane orthogonal to the conductive ground plane. The arm portions, collectively and on-edge, produce an L-shaped radiator parallel to the conductive ground plane. Each of the high band radiators comprises a pair of cruciform radiators, each cruciform electrically connected to, spaced-apart from, and parallel to the conductive ground plane. The conductive partition isolates at least a portion of the RF energy transmitted by the low and high-band radiators.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2017Date of Patent: June 11, 2019Assignee: John Mezzalingua Associates, LLCInventors: Kevin T.
