REFLECTIVE ARRAY ANTENNA AND BASE STATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18458059 titled 'REFLECTIVE ARRAY ANTENNA AND BASE STATION

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a reflective array antenna that includes a substrate and multiple reflective antenna elements. The antenna is designed to provide coverage in blind areas and reduce costs by minimizing the use of active devices.

  • The antenna consists of a substrate with two opposite surfaces, one of which has a mounting area.
  • Multiple reflective antenna elements are distributed in an array and placed in each mounting area.
  • The reflective array antenna is capable of providing coverage in blind areas where signals may be weak or absent.
  • The antenna design reduces the need for active devices, resulting in cost savings.
  • The technology can be used in various applications that require reliable and cost-effective wireless communication.

Potential Applications

  • Wireless communication systems
  • Satellite communication
  • Radar systems
  • Mobile networks
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices

Problems Solved

  • Provides coverage in blind areas where signals may be weak or absent.
  • Reduces the need for active devices, resulting in cost savings.
  • Improves the reliability and efficiency of wireless communication systems.

Benefits

  • Cost-effective solution for providing coverage in blind areas.
  • Reduces the complexity and cost associated with active devices.
  • Enhances the performance and reliability of wireless communication systems.


Original Abstract Submitted

A reflective array antenna includes a substrate and a plurality of reflective antenna elements. The substrate includes a first surface and a second surface that are disposed opposite to each other, the first surface including at least one mounting area. A plurality of reflective antenna elements is distributed in an array and are disposed in each mounting area. The reflective array antenna in this disclosure can meet a requirement for blind area coverage and can reduce use of an active device to reduce costs.
