Title:
MULTI-BEAM ANTENNA APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/087453
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A multi-beam antenna apparatus which uses one antenna unit to achieve two independent multi-beam characteristics and improves gain. A flat antenna module is formed by stacking a first antenna part, a second antenna part, a first Rotman lens part, and a second Rotman lens part in this order. One multi-beam characteristic is achieved with the first antenna part and first Rotman lens part, and another independent multi-beam characteristic is achieved with the second antenna part and second Rotman lens part. When designing a Rotman lens, the shape that is decided for the Rotman lens is one which satisfies β<α, and further, the relational expression of η=(β/α) ⋅ (Ln/F)<1, and has a size (G) that is smaller than the size of a Rotman lens that is designed under the condition of β=α, where β is the beam forming angle and α is the angle between the center line (208) and the line which joins an intersection point (S2) to one of the plurality of input terminals.
