Abstract: Antennas include first and second radiating elements that are configured to operate in respective operating frequency bands. The first radiating element includes a first dipole arm that has a first conductive path and a second conductive path that is positioned behind the first conductive path. The first conductive path includes a plurality of first segments and the second conductive path includes a plurality of second segments, where a subset of the first segments overlap respective ones of second segments to form a plurality of pairs of overlapping first and second segments. At least some of the pairs of overlapping segments are configured so that the instantaneous direction of a first current formed on the first segment in response to RF radiation emitted by the second radiating element will be substantially opposite the instantaneous direction of a second current formed on the second segment in response to the RF radiation.

Abstract: A base station antenna includes a column of radiating elements comprising first and second sets of radiating elements, each radiating element being configured to operate in a first frequency band that has first and second sub-bands. The second set of radiating elements is located above and/or below the first set of radiating elements.

Abstract: Base station antennas comprise a planar reflector, a radiating element mounted to extend forwardly from the planar reflector, the radiating element including a dipole that comprises an inner dipole arm and an outer dipole arm, and a radome having a front wall, a side wall and a curved front transition wall that connects the front wall to the side wall. A distal end of the outer dipole arm is closer to the planar reflector than is a base of the outer dipole arm, and an overlap portion of the outer dipole arm overlaps the curved front transition wall. A largest minimum distance between any point on a front surface of the overlap portion of the outer dipole arm and the radome is less than twice a smallest minimum distance between any point on the front surface of the overlap portion of the outer dipole arm and the radome.

Abstract: A radiating element includes a feed rod and a radiator mounted on the feed rod. The radiator includes a dielectric substrate, a first dipole arranged along a first axis and including a first dipole arm and a second dipole arm, and a second dipole arranged along a second axis perpendicular to the first axis and including a third dipole arm and a fourth dipole arm.
