WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS USING MULTIPLE ANTENNA ARRAYS AND A LENS ARRAY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240213672 titled 'WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS USING MULTIPLE ANTENNA ARRAYS AND A LENS ARRAY
The abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications that involve an array of lenses and multiple antenna arrays supporting multiple beam directions.
- Each antenna array includes a set of antenna elements and can support various beam directions, one for each lens in the array.
- Lenses help maintain separation between beams passing through the same lens and contribute to shaping the beams.
- Multiple lenses can enhance the coverage area for beams transmitted or received by the antenna arrays.
Potential Applications: - Wireless communication systems - Satellite communication - Radar systems
Problems Solved: - Maintaining beam separation - Enhancing coverage area - Improving beam shaping
Benefits: - Increased efficiency in wireless communications - Enhanced signal coverage - Improved beam shaping capabilities
Commercial Applications: - Telecommunications industry - Satellite communication providers - Radar system manufacturers
Questions about the Technology: 1. How does the use of multiple lenses enhance the coverage area for beams? 2. What are the specific benefits of maintaining separation between beams passing through the same lens?
Original Abstract Submitted
methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. a device may be configured to include an array of lenses along with multiple antenna arrays that each include a set of antenna elements. the antenna arrays may each support multiple beam directions, such as a respective beam direction for each lens of the array of lenses. if beams for multiple antenna arrays concurrently pass through the same lens, the lens may contribute to maintaining separation between the beams. lenses may also contribute to the shaping of beams, and the use of multiple lenses may enhance a coverage area for beams transmitted or received by the antenna arrays.
