Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of communications, and more particularly to an antenna system. Background Technology
[0002] With the large-scale commercialization of multi-input multi-output (MIMO) technology, the integrated access backhaul (IAB) node solution has been proposed. This solution is used to extend the coverage of macro base stations and fill blind spots, maximizing the capacity potential and spectrum value of MIMO. An IAB node consists of a mobile termination (MT) antenna and a distributed unit (DU) antenna. The MT antenna communicates with the macro base station, while the DU antenna communicates with the user equipment (UE). Traditional IAB nodes operate in frequency division duplex (FDM) or time division duplex (TDM) modes due to the low isolation between the MT and DU antennas, resulting in wasted spectrum or time slot resources. To ensure that the IAB node operates within the same frequency band, with the MT antenna receiving signals from the macro base station while the DU antenna transmits signals to the UE, and vice versa, interference between the two antennas must be reduced.
[0003] In existing technologies, interference between antennas is reduced by setting up two metal fences to enclose the MT antenna and the DU antenna respectively, and by placing a metal bar array between the two metal fences. However, the aforementioned metal fences are often quite tall, and the metal bar array also occupies a lot of space, affecting the design of other parts of the IAB node. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This application provides an antenna system for improving the isolation between an MT antenna and a DU antenna.
[0005] The first aspect of this application provides an antenna system:
[0006] The system includes a first antenna array and a second antenna array, with the first antenna array positioned on a first side and the second antenna array positioned on a second side. The spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the first antenna array along the target direction is determined based on the phase difference and wavelength of the feed to these two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the first antenna array along the target direction. Similarly, the spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the second antenna array along the target direction is determined based on the phase difference and wavelength of the feed to these two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the second antenna array along the target direction. The target direction points from the first side to the second side, and the wavelength corresponds to the operating frequency band of both the first and second antenna arrays.
[0007] In this application, by setting the spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction of the first antenna array and the second antenna array in the above manner, interference signals transmitted from the first antenna to the second antenna array and interference signals transmitted from the second antenna to the first antenna array can be suppressed. Thus, there is no need to set up additional metal fences and metal strip arrays, and good isolation between the first antenna array and the second antenna array can be obtained.
[0008] In one possible implementation, if the main beam generated by the first antenna array does not deflect relative to the direction of the vertical array surface, the spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction of the first antenna array is half a wavelength.
[0009] In one possible implementation, if the main beam generated by the first antenna array is deflected to a first side relative to the direction perpendicular to the array face, then the spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction is less than half a wavelength. Alternatively, if the main beam generated by the first antenna array is deflected to a second side relative to the direction perpendicular to the array face, then the spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction is greater than half a wavelength.
[0010] In one possible implementation, if the main beam generated by the first antenna array is biased towards the first side relative to the direction perpendicular to the array surface, then the spacing d between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction of the first antenna array... a satisfy Where δ a Let λ be the phase difference between the feeds of two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the first antenna array along the target direction, and λ be the wavelength. Alternatively, if the main beam generated by the first antenna array is deflected to the second side, then d... a satisfy
[0011] In one possible implementation, if the main beam generated by the second linear array does not deflect relative to the direction of the vertical array surface, then the spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction of the second linear array is half a wavelength.
[0012] In one possible implementation, if the main beam generated by the second linear array is biased towards the first side relative to the direction perpendicular to the array face, then the spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction of the second linear array is greater than half a wavelength. Alternatively, if the main beam generated by the second linear array is biased towards the second side relative to the direction perpendicular to the array face, then the spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction of the second linear array is less than half a wavelength.
[0013] In one possible implementation, if the main beam generated by the second linear array is biased towards the first side relative to the direction perpendicular to the array surface, then the spacing d between two adjacent rows of antenna elements of the second linear array in the target direction is... b satisfy Where δ b The phase difference between the feeds of two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the second linear array in the target direction. Alternatively, if the main beam generated by the second linear array is offset to the second side relative to the direction perpendicular to the array surface, then the spacing d between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction of the second linear array is... b satisfy
[0014] In one possible implementation, if the first antenna array includes M rows of antenna elements in the target direction, the excitation voltage amplitude of the M rows of antenna elements first increases and then decreases in the target direction; if the second antenna array includes N rows of antenna elements in the target direction, the excitation voltage amplitude of the N rows of antenna elements first increases and then decreases in the target direction.
[0015] In one possible implementation, the ratio of the excitation voltage amplitudes of the M rows of antenna elements in the first antenna array is, in the target direction, successively: The ratio of the excitation voltage amplitudes of the N rows of antenna elements in the second antenna array is as follows in the target direction:
[0016] In one possible implementation, if the first antenna array includes M rows of antenna elements in the target direction, then the sum of the excitation voltage amplitudes of the odd-numbered rows of antenna elements in the M rows is equal to the sum of the excitation voltage amplitudes of the even-numbered rows of antenna elements in the M rows. If the second antenna array includes N rows of antenna elements in the target direction, then the sum of the excitation voltage amplitudes of the odd-numbered rows of antenna elements in the N rows is equal to the sum of the excitation voltage amplitudes of the even-numbered rows of antenna elements in the N rows.
[0017] In one possible implementation, the first side is the top side and the second side is the bottom side. Alternatively, the first side is the left side and the second side is the right side.
[0018] A second aspect of this application provides an antenna system:
[0019] The system includes a first antenna array and a second antenna array, which are respectively located on a first side and a second side. The first antenna array includes one row of antenna elements in the target direction. The spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the second antenna array in the target direction is determined based on the phase difference and wavelength of the feed to the two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the second antenna array in the target direction. The target direction points from the first side to the second side, and the wavelength corresponds to the operating frequency band of the first antenna array and the second antenna array.
[0020] In this application, by setting the spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction of the second antenna array in the above manner, interference signals transmitted in the direction of the second antenna array and the direction of the first antenna array can be suppressed, so that there is no need to set up additional metal fences and metal strip arrays, and good isolation between the first antenna array and the second antenna array can be obtained.
[0021] In one possible implementation, if the main beam generated by the second linear array does not deflect relative to the direction of the vertical array surface, then the spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction of the second linear array is half a wavelength.
[0022] In one possible implementation, if the second antenna array is positioned on the first side, and the main beam generated by the second antenna array is biased towards the first side relative to the direction perpendicular to the array surface, then the spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the second antenna array in the target direction is less than half a wavelength. Alternatively, if the second antenna array is positioned on the first side, and the main beam generated by the second antenna array is biased towards the second side relative to the direction perpendicular to the array surface, then the spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction is greater than half a wavelength.
[0023] In one possible implementation, if the second antenna array is positioned on the second side, and the main beam generated by the second antenna array is biased towards the first side relative to the direction perpendicular to the array surface, then the spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the second antenna array in the target direction is greater than half the wavelength. Alternatively, if the second antenna array is positioned on the second side, and the main beam generated by the second antenna array is biased towards the second side relative to the direction perpendicular to the array surface, then the spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction is less than half the wavelength.
[0024] In one possible implementation, if the second linear array is positioned on the first side, and the main beam generated by the second linear array is biased towards the first side relative to the direction perpendicular to the array surface, then the spacing d between two adjacent rows of antenna elements of the second linear array in the target direction is... a satisfy Where δ a λ is the phase difference fed by the two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the second antenna array in the target direction, where λ is the wavelength;
[0025] or,
[0026] If the second linear array is positioned on the first side, and the main beam generated by the second linear array is deflected towards the second side, then d a satisfy
[0027] In one possible implementation, if the second antenna array is positioned on the second side, and the main beam generated by the second antenna array is biased towards the first side relative to the direction perpendicular to the array surface, then the spacing d between two adjacent rows of antenna elements of the second antenna array in the target direction is... b satisfy Where δ b Let d be the phase difference fed to two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the second second linear array in the target direction. Alternatively, if the second second linear array is positioned on the second side, and the main beam generated by the second second linear array is biased towards the second side relative to the direction perpendicular to the array surface, then the spacing d between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the second second linear array in the target direction is... b satisfy
[0028] In one possible implementation, if the second antenna array includes N rows of antenna elements in the target direction, the excitation voltage amplitude of the N rows of antenna elements first increases and then decreases in the target direction.
[0029] In one possible implementation, if the second antenna array includes M rows of antenna elements in the target direction, then the ratio of the excitation voltage amplitudes of the M rows of antenna elements in the target direction is as follows:
[0030] In one possible implementation, the sum of the excitation voltage amplitudes of the odd-numbered rows of antenna elements in the N rows of the second antenna array is equal to the sum of the excitation voltage amplitudes of the even-numbered rows of antenna elements in the N rows of the antenna array.
[0031] In one possible implementation, the first side is the top side and the second side is the bottom side. Alternatively, the first side is the left side and the second side is the right side.
[0032] In one possible implementation, the second linear array includes at least three rows of antenna elements in the target direction.
[0033] A third aspect of this application provides an antenna pole station:
[0034] It includes a mast, a mounting bracket, a baffle, and an antenna module, wherein the antenna module houses the antenna system as described in the first or second aspect. The mounting bracket is fixedly connected to the mast, and the baffle and antenna module are fixedly connected to the mounting bracket, with the baffle positioned between the mast and the antenna module.
[0035] In this application, by setting a baffle between the antenna module and the mast, the electromagnetic waves generated by the MT antenna and DU antenna in the antenna system can be scattered or adjusted, thereby ensuring that the isolation between the MT antenna and DU antenna is not affected by the mast and mounting components.
[0036] In one possible implementation, the baffle is rectangular or curved. Attached Figure Description

[0065] The embodiments of this application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. As those skilled in the art will understand, with the development of technology and the emergence of new scenarios, the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of this application are also applicable to similar technical problems.
[0066] The terms "first," "second," etc., used in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments described herein can be implemented in a sequence other than that illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.
[0067] Please see Figure 1 The IAB node's antenna consists of two parts: a MU antenna and a DU antenna. These two antennas perform different functions, thereby extending the coverage of the macro base station and filling blind spots, maximizing the capacity potential and spectrum value of MIMO. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 In a typical application scenario for an IAB node, there are backhaul links and access links. The DU antenna of the IAB node provides radio access services to the UE through the access link, while the MT antenna of the IAB node connects to the macro base station through the backhaul link and transmits service data from the UE to the macro base station. It should be noted that... Figure 2 This is just a simplified illustration of an application scenario; the application scenario for an IAB node can also include multiple IAB nodes and multiple UEs. For example, please refer to... Figure 3 This application scenario includes IAB node 1, IAB node 2, and a macro base station. The macro base station can access the core network. The MT antenna of IAB node 1 is connected to the macro base station via an upstream backhaul link, and the MT antenna of IAB node 2 is connected to IAB node 1 via a downstream backhaul link. In addition, the DU antennas of IAB node 1, IAB node 2, and the macro base station provide access services to the UE via access links.
[0068] In current technology, due to the low isolation between the MT antenna and DU antenna, IAB nodes often operate in frequency division duplex (FDM) or time division duplex (TDM) mode, making it impossible to simultaneously transmit and receive signals within the same frequency band. This means that it's not possible for the MT antenna to receive signals from the macro base station while the DU antenna is transmitting signals to the UE, or for the MT antenna to transmit signals to the macro base station while the DU antenna is receiving signals from the UE. To improve the isolation between the MT and DU antennas, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 4In existing technologies, metal fences are used to surround the MT and DU antennas, reducing interference between them by reflecting electromagnetic waves. Furthermore, a metal bar array is placed between the MT and DU antennas to further improve isolation by suppressing surface waves. However, these metal fences and arrays occupy a significant amount of space, impacting the design of other parts of the IAB node.
[0069] This application provides an antenna system for improving the isolation between an MT antenna and a DU antenna.
[0070] The antenna array in the embodiments of this application can be used as an IAB node, applied to, for example... Figure 2 or Figure 3 In the application scenarios shown.
[0071] Please see Figure 5 The antenna system in this embodiment includes a first antenna array and a second antenna array. The first antenna array is disposed on a first side, and the second antenna array is disposed on a second side. The first antenna array and the second antenna array are respectively used as a medium-mass antenna (MT antenna) and a dual-mass antenna (DU antenna). For example, the first antenna array can be used as an MT antenna or as a DU antenna. In one case, the first side is, for example, the upper side, and the second side is, for example, the lower side; or in another case, the first side is the left side, and the second side is the right side. Of course, the first side and the second side are not limited to the above situations. In one case, the first antenna array and the second antenna array can be used to simultaneously transmit and receive signals in the same frequency band. That is, when the DU antenna transmits a signal to the UE in the same frequency band, the MT antenna can also receive signals from the macro base station, and when the DU antenna receives signals from the UE, the MT antenna can also transmit signals to the macro base station.
[0072] The spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the first antenna array along the target direction is determined by the phase difference and wavelength of the feed to those two adjacent rows of antenna elements. Similarly, the spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the second antenna array along the target direction is determined by the phase difference and wavelength of the feed to those two adjacent rows of antenna elements. The target direction is the direction from the first side to the second side. The first and second antenna arrays use the same operating frequency band. The wavelength is the wavelength corresponding to that operating frequency band, such as the wavelength corresponding to the center frequency, a high-frequency frequency, or a low-frequency frequency within that operating frequency band. In a preferred embodiment, the wavelength can be the wavelength corresponding to the center frequency within the operating frequency band.
[0073] In one specific implementation, if the main beam generated by the first antenna array is biased towards the first side relative to the direction perpendicular to the array surface, then the spacing d between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction of the first antenna array...a1 It satisfies the following formula (1):
[0074]
[0075] δ a1 The phase difference between the feeds of the two adjacent rows of antenna elements is given by λ, where λ is the wavelength.
[0076] If the main beam generated by the first antenna array is deflected to the second side relative to the direction of the vertical array, then the spacing d between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction of the first antenna array... a2 The following formula (2) is satisfied:
[0077]
[0078] δ a2 The phase difference between the feeds of the two adjacent rows of antenna elements.
[0079] If the main beam generated by the second linear array is biased towards the first side relative to the direction of the vertical array, then the spacing d between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction of the second linear array... b1 The following formula (3) is satisfied:
[0080]
[0081] δ b1 The phase difference between the feeds of the two adjacent rows of antenna elements.
[0082] Alternatively, if the main beam generated by the second linear array is offset to the second side relative to the direction of the vertical array, then the spacing d between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction of the second linear array... b2 The following formula (4) is satisfied:
[0083]
[0084] δ b2 The phase difference between the feeds of the two adjacent rows of antenna elements.
[0085] If there is an antenna array in the first antenna array and the second antenna array whose main beam does not deflect, that is, the main beam generated by the antenna array is perpendicular to the array surface, since the phase difference fed by the two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction of the antenna array is zero, it can be deduced that the spacing between the two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction of the antenna array is half a wavelength. Of course, in actual implementation, the above spacing can also be selected with appropriate values in the range of greater than half a wavelength or less than half a wavelength.
[0086] In another specific implementation, if the main beam generated by the first antenna array is biased towards the first side relative to the direction of the vertical array, the spacing between the two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction of the first antenna array may not be set completely according to formula (1), but may be selected in an appropriate range of less than half a wavelength.
[0087] If the main beam generated by the first antenna array is biased to the second side relative to the direction of the vertical array, the spacing between the two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction of the first antenna array does not have to be set exactly according to formula (2), but can be selected in a range greater than half a wavelength.
[0088] If the main beam generated by the second linear array is biased towards the first side relative to the direction of the vertical array, the spacing between the two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction of the second linear array does not have to be set exactly according to formula (3), but can be selected in a range greater than half a wavelength.
[0089] If the main beam generated by the second linear array is biased to the second side relative to the direction of the vertical array, the spacing between the two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the target direction of the second linear array does not have to be set exactly according to formula (4), but can be selected in an appropriate range of less than half a wavelength.
[0090] It should be noted that the excitation voltage amplitudes of each antenna element in a row of antenna elements in both the first and second antenna arrays are the same in the target direction. Based on the above, if the first antenna array includes M rows of antenna elements in the target direction, the excitation voltage amplitude of the M rows of antenna elements first increases and then decreases in the target direction; similarly, if the second antenna array includes N rows of antenna elements in the target direction, the excitation voltage amplitude of the N rows of antenna elements first increases and then decreases in the target direction, thus satisfying a tapered distribution. For example, in a preferred embodiment, if the first antenna array includes M rows of antenna elements in the target direction, the ratio of the excitation voltage amplitudes of these M rows of antenna elements in the target direction is as follows: If the second antenna array includes N rows of antenna elements in the target direction, then the ratio of the excitation voltage amplitudes of these N rows of antenna elements in the target direction is as follows:
[0091] Alternatively, in another scenario, if the first antenna array comprises M rows of antenna elements in the target direction, then the sum of the excitation voltage amplitudes of the odd-numbered rows of antenna elements in the M rows is equal to the sum of the excitation voltage amplitudes of the even-numbered rows of antenna elements in the M rows. Similarly, if the second antenna array comprises N rows of antenna elements in the target direction, then the sum of the excitation voltage amplitudes of the odd-numbered rows of antenna elements in the N rows is equal to the sum of the excitation voltage amplitudes of the even-numbered rows of antenna elements in the N rows. For example, if the first antenna array comprises 4 rows of antenna elements in the target direction, then the sum of the excitation voltage amplitudes of the first and third rows of antenna elements in the target direction is equal to the sum of the excitation voltage amplitudes of the second and fourth rows of antenna elements in the target direction.
[0092] The antenna arrays in the embodiments of this application have been generally described above. In actual implementation, at least one of the first and second antenna arrays has three or more rows of antenna elements in the target direction. In a special case, one of the first and second antenna arrays has only one row of antenna elements in the target direction, while the other antenna array is configured as described above.
[0093] The antenna system in the embodiments of this application will now be described in more detail:
[0094] Please see Figure 6 In one possible design, the first antenna array is positioned on the upper side, and the second antenna array is positioned on the lower side. Both the first and second antenna arrays include three rows of antenna elements in the target direction. Furthermore, the main beam generated by the first and second antenna arrays does not deflect. Based on the foregoing description, the spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the first antenna array in the target direction is half a wavelength, and the spacing between two adjacent rows of antenna elements in the second antenna array in the target direction is also half a wavelength. The distance between the upper edge of the first antenna array and the lower edge of the second antenna array is 5.3 wavelengths. In an optional implementation, the ratio of the excitation voltage amplitudes of the rows of antenna elements in the first antenna array from top to bottom can be set to 1:2:1, and the ratio of the excitation voltage amplitudes of the rows of antenna elements in the second antenna array from top to bottom is also 1:2:1. It should be noted that the above ratio of excitation voltage amplitudes can be achieved by adjusting the feed line width of each row of antenna elements in the power divider network; details will not be elaborated here.
[0095] Please see Figure 7 The following section discusses the principles involved. Figure 6The isolation of the antenna system shown is analyzed. In this embodiment, the antenna array improves isolation based on the principle of interference signal suppression. Taking the first antenna array as an example, each row of antenna elements in the first antenna array mainly radiates a feed signal perpendicular to the array surface. This feed signal does not affect the second antenna array located below. However, each row of antenna elements also generates an interference signal, which propagates perpendicular to the feed signal to the second antenna array below, leading to a deterioration in the isolation between the two antenna arrays. Figure 6 The first antenna array has three rows of antenna elements from top to bottom, denoted as Antenna Element Row I, Antenna Element Row II, and Antenna Element Row III. The interference signal generated by Antenna Element Row I is denoted as c1, the interference signal generated by Antenna Element Row II as c2, and the interference signal generated by Antenna Element Row III as c3. Taking a reference plane below the first antenna array, assuming the phase of interference signal c3 is 0, it is easy to see that interference signal c1, after propagating a distance of one wavelength longer than interference signal c3, has a phase difference of 360° with interference signal c3, and is exactly in phase with interference signal c3, thus superimposing on it. Interference signal c2, after propagating a distance of half a wavelength longer than interference signal c3, has a phase difference of 180° with interference signal c3, and is exactly out of phase with interference signals c1 and c3, thus canceling them out. Based on this, when the excitation voltage amplitudes of interference signals c1, c2, and c3 satisfy c1 + c3 = c2, the first antenna array can achieve good interference signal suppression, preventing the interference signals from affecting the second antenna array, thereby obtaining good isolation between the first and second antenna arrays. Based on the above description, the excitation voltage amplitude ratio of interference signal c1:interference signal c2:interference signal c3 can be selected as 1:2:1. The principle for the second antenna array to achieve good interference signal suppression is similar to that described above and will not be repeated here.
[0096] Please see Figure 8 The following schematic diagram illustrates the improvement in isolation of the antenna system of this application compared to the antenna system of the prior art. Figure 8 The vertical axis represents isolation, and the horizontal axis represents the operating frequency of the antenna array. Lines labeled "Ori" indicate the isolation between the MT and DU antennas in existing antenna systems, while lines labeled "Opt" indicate... Figure 6 The isolation between the MT antenna and the DU antenna in the antenna system shown. Figure 8 The identifier "PP" indicates that both the MT and DU antennas are +45° polarized; the identifiers "PN" and "NP" indicate that one of the MT and DU antennas is +45° polarized and the other is -45° polarized; the identifier "NN" indicates that both the MT and DU antennas are -45° polarized. Based on the above description, for example... Figure 8 The line marked "Ori-PP" indicates the isolation in prior art antenna systems where both the MT and DU antennas are +45° polarized; the line marked "Opt-PP" indicates... Figure 6 The antenna system shown demonstrates the isolation when both the MT and DU antennas are +45° polarized. It is readily apparent that, using the line marked "Ori" as the baseline, the average isolation between the MT and DU antennas in this application's antenna system is improved by 20 dB.
[0097] Please see Figure 9a , Figure 9a The vertical axis represents Figure 6 The gain corresponding to the first antenna array is shown on the x-axis as angle, where 0 degrees corresponds to the direction perpendicular to the array surface, 0 degrees to 180 degrees represent clockwise deflections relative to the perpendicular direction, and 0 degrees to -180 degrees represent counterclockwise deflections relative to the perpendicular direction. The region with approximately 90 degrees clockwise deflection relative to the perpendicular direction can be considered the interference region that will affect the second antenna array. Similarly, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 9b , Figure 9b The vertical axis represents Figure 6 The gain corresponding to the second antenna array is defined as follows: 0 degrees corresponds to the direction perpendicular to the array surface; 0 degrees to 180 degrees represent clockwise deflections relative to the perpendicular array surface; and 0 degrees to -180 degrees represent counterclockwise deflections relative to the perpendicular array surface. The region with approximately 90 degrees counterclockwise deflection relative to the perpendicular array surface can be considered the interference region that will affect the first antenna array. In the above...

[0098] certainly, Figure 6 In the antenna system described, the ratio of the excitation voltage amplitudes of the antenna elements in each row of the first antenna array and the second antenna array from top to bottom can also be other values.

It should be noted that the deflection of the main beams of the first and second antenna arrays can be achieved by adjusting the feed line length of each row of antenna elements in the power divider network; details will not be elaborated here.
