    摘要: A dipole antenna for use with a mobile subscriber unit in a wireless network communications system. The antenna is fabricated with printed circuit board (PCB) photo-etching techniques for precise control of the printed structure. The dipole antenna includes a planar substrate made of dielectric material. A conductive planar element is layered on one side of the substrate in an upper region of the substrate, and a conductive planar ground patch is layered on the other side of the substrate in a lower region of the substrate. That is, the conductive planar element is stacked above the conductive planar ground patch. A feed strip is connected to the bottom of the conductive planar element, and extends from the element to a bottom edge of the substrate and terminates at a bottom feed point. Typically, the feed point is connected to a transmission line for transmitting signals to and receiving signals from the dipole antenna. The conductive planar ground patch includes a bottom end for connecting the ground patch to a ground plane upon which the dipole antenna is mounted. The ground plane is aligned orthonormal to the antenna. Capacitive coupling between the conductive planar element and the conductive ground patch creates a junction which provides an upper dipole feed point in a mid-region of the substrate such that the conductive planar element acts as one element of an unbalanced dipole antenna and the conductive planar ground patch acts as the other element of the unbalanced dipole antenna. The unbalanced dipole antenna forms a beam which may be positionally directed along a horizon that is substantially parallel to the ground plane.
