Abstract :
In this paper, based on the beam width extension, the broadband dipole and the dual polarization techniques, a wide beam, dual polarization and high gain antenna for WCDMA base station applications is designed, fabricated and measured. The measured VSWR is lass than 1.5 over the whole WCDMA frequency band (Tx: 1920-1980MHz, Rx: 2110-2170MHz), the 3dB beam width is as wide as 120°, and the gain is 16dBi.
