    Abstract: A board-to-board connector assembly includes: a coaxial cable portion including an inner conductor, a dielectric layer circumferentially overlying the inner conductor, and an outer conductor circumferentially overlying the dielectric layer; a printed circuit board (PCB); a first connector mounted to the PCB, the first connector including a first inner contact in electrical contact with the inner conductor, and a first outer contact in electrical contact with the outer conductor; and a second connector having a second inner contact in electrical contact with the inner conductor and a second outer contact in electrical contact with the outer conductor. At least one of the first outer contact and the second outer contact is in electrical contact with the outer conductor via a conductive gasket.

    Abstract: Base station antennas include a main module that has a first backplane that includes a first reflector. A vertically-extending array of first radiating elements is mounted to extend forwardly from the first reflector, and at least one first RF port is coupled to the vertically-extending array of first radiating elements. These antennas further include a sub-module that is attached to the first backplane. The sub-module includes a second backplane that has a second reflector that is separate from the first reflector. A vertically-extending array of second radiating elements is mounted to extend forwardly from the second reflector and is transversely spaced-apart from the vertically-extending array of first radiating elements. A plurality of second RF ports are coupled to the vertically-extending array of second radiating elements. The vertically-extending array of first radiating elements and the vertically-extending array of second radiating elements are configured to serve a common sector of a base station.

    CPC classification number: H04B7/0408 H04B7/0617 H04W16/28 H01Q3/40

    Abstract: A sector-splitting base station antenna includes a plurality of RF ports, a plurality of columns of radiating elements, a first beamforming network that is coupled between a first subset of the RF ports and a first antenna array that comprises a first subset of the columns of radiating elements, and a second beamforming network that is coupled between a second subset of the RF ports and a second antenna array that comprises a second subset of the columns of radiating elements. The first beamforming network and the first antenna array are configured to generate a first plurality of antenna beams that provide coverage to a first side of a sector of a cell of a cellular communications system but not to a second side of the sector, and the second beamforming network and the second antenna array are configured to generate a second plurality of antenna beams that provide coverage to the second side of the sector but not to the first side of the sector.
