Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the field of antenna technologies, and in particular, to an antenna, an antenna assembly, and a base station.
As network frequency bands increase, to implement a multiband multimode, and high-performance antenna of a base station in a network, a quantity of antenna combination modules of the base station increases. A combination module is an overall structure. A new module needs to be developed for each new combination, leading to a variety of spare parts. When a frequency band is upgraded and evolved, for example, 4 transmit, 4 receive (4T4R) is evolved to 8 transmit, 8 receive (8T8R), the entire antenna needs to be replaced, wasting customer investment.
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a combined antenna and an antenna base station, and modules in different frequency bands can be flexibly adapted on a same antenna, to facilitate replacement.
An embodiment of the present disclosure provides an antenna, including a first antenna portion and a second antenna portion, where the first antenna portion includes a first radome and a first reflection plate disposed in the first radome, the second antenna portion includes a second radome and a second reflection plate disposed in the second radome, the first radome is detachably connected to the second radome, and a working surface of the first reflection plate and a working surface of the second reflection plate are coplanar; and a plurality of antenna arrays on the working surface of the first reflection plate and a plurality of antenna arrays on the working surface of the second reflection plate are configured to construct different types of antennas based on a quantity of frequency bands and a quantity of transmit and receive channels that are configured. The first antenna portion and the second antenna portion are independently disposed, can implement antenna modules of at least two types of frequency bands, and can replace one of the antenna modules (antenna types) at any time and combine the antenna module with another antenna module to form a new antenna without updating the entire antenna, thereby reducing design complexity of the antenna, and improving manufacturability. In addition, another half of the modules can be reused, fully protecting investment value of a customer.
In one embodiment, the antenna arrays on the first reflection plate and the antenna arrays on the second reflection plate are configured to jointly construct a first-type antenna; or the antenna arrays on the first reflection plate are configured to construct a second-type antenna, and the antenna arrays on the second reflection plate are configured to construct a third-type antenna. The antenna in this embodiment has two or more types of antenna performance. The first-type antenna may be a low-frequency antenna. The second-type antenna and the third-type antenna are high-frequency antennas, and may be of a same frequency band or different frequency bands. The second-type antenna and the third-type antenna coexist or can work independently. Alternatively, the first-type antenna, the second-type antenna, and the third-type antenna coexist or perform respective operations.
In another embodiment, some antenna arrays on the first reflection plate and some antenna arrays on the second reflection plate are configured to jointly construct a first-type antenna, and some other antenna arrays on the first reflection plate and some other antenna arrays on the second reflection plate are respectively configured to construct a second-type antenna and a third-type antenna. Alternatively, some antenna arrays on the first reflection plate and the plurality of antenna arrays on the second reflection plate are configured to jointly construct the first-type antenna, and some other antenna arrays on the first reflection plate are configured to construct the second-type antenna. In this embodiment, the first-type antenna and the second-type antenna or the third-type antenna coexist or perform respective operations. The antenna may replace one type of antenna at any time and combine the antenna with another type of antenna to form a new antenna without updating the entire antenna, thereby reducing design complexity of the antenna, and improving manufacturability. In addition, another half of the modules can be reused, fully protecting investment value of a customer.
A phase shifter of the first-type antenna is connected to the antenna arrays that construct the first-type antenna, and are electrically connected to a first radio frequency port that is on the first radome by using the phase shifter, to construct the first-type antenna. The first-type antenna may be a low-frequency band antenna. A signal entered from the first radio frequency port is transmitted to the antenna arrays of the first-type antenna after the phase shifter adjusts a tilt angle of a wave for radiation.
In a direction from the first reflection plate to the second reflection plate, the antenna arrays on the first reflection plate and the antenna arrays on the second reflection plate that construct the first-type antenna are arranged on the working surface of the first reflection plate and the working surface of the second reflection plate at equal intervals in a straight line, and are connected to the phase shifter by using a power divider, to facilitate layout design of antenna arrays and ensure radiation effect.
A feeding network of the second-type antenna is electrically connected, by using a suspended strip-line structure, to the antenna arrays on the first reflection plate that construct the second-type antenna, and the feeding network is electrically connected to a second radio frequency port that is on the first radome.
A feeding network of the third-type antenna is electrically connected, by using a suspended strip-line structure, to the antenna arrays on the second reflection plate that construct the third-type antenna, and the feeding network is electrically connected to the second radio frequency port that is on the second radome. The feeding network of the third-type antenna is electrically connected, by using a suspended strip-line structure, to the antenna arrays on the second reflection plate that construct the third-type antenna. A second radio frequency module of the third-type antenna is disposed on a back of the first radome away from a radiation direction of the antenna, and the second radio frequency port that is on the second radome is electrically connected to the feeding network and the second radio frequency module. The second-type antenna and the third-type antenna may be high-frequency band antennas, and may alternatively be high-frequency antennas of a same frequency band or high-frequency antennas of different frequency bands. In addition to satisfying a column length of low-frequency band antenna arrays, the high-frequency band antenna compensates for a decrease in antenna array frequency caused by an insufficient column length of the high-frequency band antenna arrays by using a suspended strip-line structure feeding network, thereby ensuring respective performance of the low-frequency band antenna and the high-frequency band antenna.
The feeding network includes a power division module and a phase shift module, and the power division module is configured to connect to the phase shift module and the antenna arrays that correspond to the power division module. The power division module sets different line interfaces based on different interfaces and different quantities of antenna arrays required by the antenna, and adjusts a signal wave tilt angle by using the phase shift module.
When the first reflection plate or the second reflection plate includes both the antenna arrays of the first-type antenna and the antenna arrays of the second-type antenna, the antenna arrays of the first-type antenna and the antenna arrays of the second-type antenna are arranged in an interleaved manner, to fully use space of the reflection plates and facilitate design. In this embodiment, a quantity of second antenna arrays in a same column of a same reflection plate is twice a quantity of first antenna arrays. An interval between two antenna arrays of the second-type antenna is a half of an interval between two adjacent antenna arrays of the first-type antenna, and both arrangement of the low-frequency arrays and arrangement of the high-frequency arrays can be satisfied.
A blind-mate male connector is disposed on the first radome, a blind-mate female connector is disposed on the second radome, and the blind-mate male connector is plugged into the blind-mate male connector, to electrically connect the antenna arrays on the second reflection plate that construct the first-type antenna to the phase shifter. In the antenna arrays of the first-type antenna, the antenna arrays on the second reflection plate are electrically connected to the blind-mate female connector by using branch lines of a power divider, and are further connected to the phase shifter. The antenna arrays on the first reflection plate are all electrically connected to the phase shifter by using the power divider, that is, a small circuit board. This blind-mate interconnection manner is relatively simple.
The antenna arrays on the second reflection plate that construct the first-type antenna are connected to the phase shifter by using a jumper, and when there are a plurality of jumpers, lengths of the jumpers are the same. The power divider converges the branch lines that are connected to the plurality of antenna arrays into one branch line, and then the branch line is electrically connected to the phase shifter by using a jumper. This connection manner is simple.
A length and a width of the first reflection plate are the same as a length and a width of the second reflection plate, and a quantity and a column length of first antenna arrays on the first reflection plate are the same as a quantity and a column length of second antenna arrays on the second reflection plate. The first antenna arrays and the second antenna arrays are evenly arranged along a length direction of the first reflection plate and the second reflection plate, so that an appearance of the antenna is integral. In this embodiment, a sum of lengths of the first radome and the second radome is 2 m or 2.6 m, and the first radome and the second radome are evenly distributed. This length satisfies an arrangement length of a low-frequency band antenna array.
A size of antenna arrays of the second-type antenna and the third-type antenna is inversely proportional to a radio frequency of the antenna arrays, and a size of antenna arrays of the first-type antenna is inversely proportional to a radio frequency of the antenna arrays. The size and quantity of antenna arrays of the second-type antenna and the third-type antenna may be designed based on different design requirements of the radio frequency.
The first-type antenna includes a first radio frequency module disposed on a back of the first radome away from a radiation direction of the antenna; and the first radio frequency module is connected to the first radio frequency port of the first-type antenna by using a jumper, or the radio frequency module is connected to the first radio frequency port of the first-type antenna by using a connector. The antenna arrays of the first-type antenna receive a signal of the first radio frequency module and transmits the signal by using the first radio frequency port.

The antenna arrays of the second-type antenna receive a signal of the second radio frequency module and transmits the signal by using the second radio frequency port.
The first radome and the second radome have a same width; and the first radome and the second radome have a same length, and are arranged at intervals in a length direction. A gap error of a joint between the first radome and the second radome is less than or equal to 5 mm, to ensure that the first antenna arrays used as the first-type antenna can be arranged at equal intervals within a minimum error.
The first reflection plate is detachably slidably installed in the first radome, and the second reflection plate is detachably slidably installed in the second radome, so that the reflection plates can be replaced when antenna modules of different frequency bands need to be replaced. In this way, antenna arrays of different frequency bands can be replaced by replacing the reflection plates.
The antenna includes a connecting piece, and the connecting piece is fixedly connected to a back of the first antenna and a back of the second radome and is located on an end portion position of the first radome and the second radome, so that a working surface of the first reflection plate and a working surface of the second reflection plate are always coplanar; and the connecting piece is a handle, a connecting pole, or the like that is locked and kept between two radomes.

Further, the connecting arm includes a connecting body fixed on the pole, a tilted sliding slot is disposed on the connecting body, a roll shaft is disposed on an end portion of the connecting piece, and the roll shaft is disposed in the sliding slot and slides or is locked in the sliding slot. When the tilt angle of the antenna needs to be adjusted, a length of the support arm is kept unchanged and the support arm is used as a fulcrum to extend or shorten the adjustment arm, and the connecting piece slides on the connecting arm, so that the first antenna portion and the second antenna portion are adapted to extension and retraction displacement of the adjustment arm and synchronous adjustment of the first antenna portion and the second antenna portion is ensured, thereby ensuring antenna performance.
The present disclosure provides a base station, including a base station support and the antenna assembly, where the pole is detachably fixed on the base station support at different angles. The base station can be adapted to configure antennas of different frequency band types by using the antenna assembly without replacing the entire antenna. Two modules of the antenna are stacked and assembled on one pole, so that a requirement for a site pole is reduced, and space of the base station and maintenance costs can be saved.
When the antenna described in this embodiment of the present disclosure can implement antenna performance of at least two types of frequency bands, one of the antenna modules can be replaced at any time to form a new antenna with another antenna module, and the entire antenna does not need to be updated. This facilitates operation and replacement.

In this embodiment, the first antenna arrays A of the first-type antenna are set based on the frequency bands and the quantity of transmit and receive channels of the first radio frequency module 45 that are configured for the antenna.
In a direction from the first reflection plate 12 to the second reflection plate 22, the first antenna arrays A are arranged on the working surface of the first reflection plate 12 and the working surface of the second reflection plate 22 at equal intervals in a straight line.

When an antenna interface needs to be upgraded, for example, when a quantity of antenna arrays A is increased to replace a 2 m antenna with a 2.6 m antenna, the entire antenna does not need to be discarded, and only the first antenna portion 10 or the second antenna portion 20 needs to be replaced, or even only the bearer first reflection plate or the second reflection plate needs to be replaced. This is easy to operate, and costs are reduced.
