The second feed zone is used to output a reception signal generated according to a second wireless signal. The dual-polarized antenna is used to form a first radiated electric-field having a first co-polarization according to the first wireless signal and form a second radiated electric-field having a second co-polarization according to the second wireless signal. The first co-polarization and the second co-polarization form an angle between 45 degrees to 135 degrees to each other in a far field.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2020Date of Patent: June 21, 2022Assignee: RichWave Technology Corp.Inventor: Shih-Kai Lin
