Abstract
Base station antennas include a first array that has a plurality of columns of radiating elements. All of the columns in the first array except for a first column and a second column are spaced apart from adjacent of the columns of the first array by a first distance. The first and second columns of the first array are spaced apart from each other a second, larger distance (e.g., twice the first distance) to define a first column-shaped open space within the first array. A column of a second array may be positioned in the first column-shaped open space within the first array.
