Abstract

Disclosed is a quasi-omnidirectional antenna having three array faces, wherein each of the three array faces has a radiator array having a plurality of radiator columns. Each of the corresponding radiator columns on the radiator arrays are coupled together to a single pair of antenna ports, one per polarization. This results in a service beam having three gain lobes that can be swept in unison in a scan. By scanning the service beam, the antenna may enable a high-gain connection to a mobile device, emulating a high gain omnidirectional antenna. Further disclosed is a variation having four array faces spaced 90 degrees apart, which offers additional performance benefits.
