The present application relates to the technical field of communications, and provides an
antenna array structure, an antenna, and a
communication device, for use in solving the problem of poor
antenna radiation gain. The antenna provided by the present application comprises a reflecting plate, radiating elements, and parasitic structures; the reflecting plate is provided with a reflecting surface, the radiating elements and the parasitic structures are all arranged on one side of the reflecting surface, and the parasitic structures are coupled with the radiating elements; the vertical projections of the parasitic structures and the radiating elements on the reflecting surface do not overlap; and the distance between each
parasitic structure and the corresponding
radiating element is greater than or equal to 1 / 4 λ, wherein λ is the space-propagation
wavelength of lowest-frequency electromagnetic
waves radiated by the radiating elements. In the
antenna array structure provided by the present application, the electromagnetic
waves radiated by the radiating elements can generate induction currents in the parasitic structures, so that the parasitic structures generate
secondary radiation, and the electromagnetic
waves radiated by the radiating elements and electromagnetic waves radiated by the parasitic structures can be effectively superimposed, effectively narrowing the
beamwidth of the antenna and increasing the
radiation aperture of the antenna, thereby achieving the effect of improving the
antenna radiation gain.
