Specific embodiment
Embodiment of the present utility model is described below in detail, the example of the embodiment is shown in the drawings, wherein ad initio
Same or similar element or the element with same or like function are represented to same or similar label eventually.Below by ginseng
The embodiment for examining Description of Drawings is exemplary, is only used for explaining this utility model, and can not be construed to of the present utility model
Limit.
As shown in Fig. 1~2, antenna element of the present utility model 1 is mountable in metallic reflection plate (non-label, similarly hereinafter),
For launching and receiving communication signal.
The dielectric ring 20 that the antenna element 1 includes antenna element main body 10 and arranges around 10 bottom of antenna body.Institute
Stating antenna element main body 10 includes radiant body 110 and supports radiant body 110 feed Balun 120 for its feed, the medium
Ring 20 is arranged around the lower end of the feed Balun 120, and the dielectric constant of the dielectric ring 20 is 6~20.
For the base station antenna unit of conventional symmetrical dipole type, height of its oscillator surface apart from metallic reflection plate
Generally 1/4 operation wavelength, the i.e. height of feed Balun are 1/4 operation wavelength.When height is less than 1/4 operation wavelength
When, metallic reflection plate will very acutely, so as to cause the impedance variation of antenna element violent to the near field reflections of antenna element, resistance
Anti- bandwidth is deteriorated.The antenna element 1 that this utility model is provided is by loaded medium ring 20 etc. between radiant body 110 and reflecting plate
Effect lengthens the distance between the radiant body 110 and reflecting plate, and the section height for effectively reducing antenna element 1 works to 1/6
Below wavelength, even if the height of feed Balun 120 is less than 1/6 operation wavelength, antenna cost and the space shared by antenna are saved,
Realize the miniaturization antenna for base station of low section.
Meanwhile, on the premise of antenna element area is not increased, loaded medium ring 20 can reduce the resonant frequency of antenna, support
Move in the resonant frequency caused because of the reduction of oscillator section height that disappears, and as oscillator surface is apart from the equivalent electrical length of reflecting plate
Increase, the phenomenon that the impedance bandwidth caused so as to weaken base plate (i.e. metallic reflection plate) reflection is deteriorated, it is ensured that circuit parameter and spoke
Penetrate performance parameters stable, so that the antenna element 1 is applicable to including all kinds of actually used base station including smart antenna
Antenna.
It should be noted that when the dielectric constant of dielectric ring 20 is taken between 6~20, ensure that its equivalent increase spoke of performance
The effect of the height of beam 110 and reflecting plate, meanwhile, prevent from weakening the gain of the antenna element 1 and to antenna entirety
Impedance bandwidth produces impact, the impedance bandwidth good to guarantee antenna.
In addition, generally, feed Balun 120 not only plays support and feed effect, also acts as constant impedance conversion
Effect, therefore, the dielectric ring 20 is actually placed on into feed bar around the surrounding for being fixed on the feed Balun 120
The outside of human relations 120, it is possible to decrease impact of the dielectric ring 20 to 120 inside feed structure of feed Balun.
Preferably, the height of the dielectric ring is 1/13~1/11 times of operation wavelength.In this utility model, the medium

Preferably, the width of the dielectric ring is less than 1/2 times of operation wavelength.In this utility model, the dielectric ring 20
Developed width can be according to the antenna for base station optimization design of required loaded medium ring 20.
By the height and width of the dielectric ring 20 of reasonable design high-k, each of the antenna element 1 can be caused
Item radiation parameter meets the requirement of antenna for base station.
Alternatively, the rotationally symmetric polygonal ring shape or annular shape of the dielectric ring 20.Usually, the feedback
Electric balun 120 includes support column, and the support column upper end is connected with radiant body 110, so that the feed Balun realizes feed
Effect, lower end are fixed on the reflecting plate, therefore, the dielectric ring 20 is designed as into polygonal ring shape or annular shape, can be kept away
Open the support column of feed Balun 120 in antenna element 1 and the dielectric ring 20 is easily installed.
Preferably, throwing of the geometric center of the geometric center of the dielectric ring 20 and antenna element main body 10 on reflecting plate
Shadow overlaps.
Preferably, the radiant body 110 includes two secondary orthogonal symmetrical dipoles (non-label, similarly hereinafter), described per secondary symmetrical
Oscillator includes two radiation arms in same level.
Described two secondary symmetrical dipoles install the overall knot for forming the relation that is centrosymmetric so that polarised direction is mutually orthogonal
Structure, it is described per pair symmetrical dipole by two it is in the same plane and with regard to same axisymmetrical arrange radiation arm (non-label,
Similarly hereinafter) constitute, each described radiation arm configuration is identical, and is installed on the same plane of reference (parallel to reflecting plate), constitutes a spoke
Penetrate face (namely above-mentioned oscillator surface).
Additionally, this utility model further relates to a kind of antenna for base station (not shown) using above-mentioned antenna element.Due to adopting
Above-mentioned antenna element, which has height low, the characteristics of small volume.
In sum, the antenna element 1 that this utility model is provided has by using the dielectric ring 20 of high dielectric constant material
Effect reduces the section height of antenna element to 1/6 operation wavelength, is advantageously implemented the miniaturization of antenna for base station:One side
Face, the dielectric ring on the premise of conventional aerial cellar area is not increased, can reduce the resonant frequency of antenna, offset because shaking
Move in the resonant frequency that sub- section height reduction causes, also, the equivalent length due to oscillator surface with reflecting plate increases, so as to cut
The phenomenon that the impedance bandwidth that weak baffle reflection is caused is deteriorated.On the other hand, by appropriate design high dielectric constant ring
Size and shape, can cause every radiation parameter of the antenna element to meet the requirement of antenna for base station.
The above is only some embodiments of the present utility model, it is noted that for the common skill of the art
For art personnel, on the premise of without departing from this utility model principle, some improvements and modifications can also be made, these improve and
Retouching also should be regarded as protection domain of the present utility model.
