This article introduces a novel triband dual-polarized shared-aperture antenna design for sub-6 GHz base station applications, utilizing different antenna structures and frequency-selective surfaces to achieve good performance for 2G/3G/4G and 5G within the same aperture. The measured results demonstrate high port isolation between different bands and sufficient impedance bandwidth for each band.
This article presents a novel triband dual-polarized shared-aperture antenna with frequency-selective function for sub-6 GHz base station applications. The proposed antenna is composed of a dual-polarized square loop antenna with two parasitic loops for 2G/3G/4G (1710-2690 MHz) and a differentially fed dual-polarized planar antenna for 5G (3300-3600 and 4800-5000 MHz) base station applications. These two antennas are placed coaxially but different altitudes for saving the installation space. In order to achieve good individual performance for these two antennas in the same aperture without interference or blocking, the lower band (LB) antenna is designed as a frequency-selective surface (FSS) for the nether mid/upper bands (M/UBs) antenna. The measured results show that the proposed antenna achieves a high port isolation (>20 dB) between LB and M/UBs and a -10-dB impedance bandwidth of 50.4% (1.60-2.70 GHz), 14.9% (3.28-3.80 GHz), and 8.6% (4.75-5.18 GHz). To further validate the design concept, an antenna array composed of four LB elements and eight M/UBs elements with the corresponding spacing is fabricated and measured, which demonstrates the application of the triband shared-aperture antenna in array form.
