Abstract: Multi-band phased array antennas include a backplane, a vertical array of low-band radiating elements that form a first antenna beam, first and second vertical arrays of high-band radiating elements that form respective second and third antenna beams and a vertical array of RF lenses. The first, second and third antenna beams point in different directions. A respective one of the second radiating elements and a respective one of the third radiating elements are positioned between the backplane and each RF lens, and at least some of the first radiating elements are positioned between the RF lenses.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure may improve the accuracy of the known azimuth determination techniques by employing more than two GNSS antennas positioned on a base station antenna. Techniques may use one or more combinations of the GNSS antennas to determine an azimuth of the base station antenna, which serve to improve accuracy of an azimuth determination.

Abstract: Systems and methods for operating an antenna providing a coverage area using beamforming and carrier aggregation techniques. The proposed system aims to optimize the use of carrier aggregation for beamforming systems. The system may include a beamforming module coupled to first array and second arrays of radiating elements, the first array being configured to provide wireless coverage on a first frequency carrier in a first coverage area, and the second array being configured to provide wireless coverage on a second frequency carrier in a second coverage area. The beamforming module may be configured to receive one or more indicators associated with one or more user equipments (UEs) in the coverage area. Based on the one or more indicators, the beam-forming module may be configured to dynamically adjust, in the RF domain, at least one of a location of the second coverage area and a size of the second coverage area.
