Abstract

A broadband multi-bay antenna array comprising an upper antenna element group and a lower antenna element group. Each of the upper antenna group and lower antenna group comprises a pair of antenna elements separated by a distance of one-half wavelength at mid-band wavelength. Radiating elements of the first antenna in each pair are positioned in a first orientation and radiating elements of the second antenna in each pair are positioned in a second orientation which differs from the orientation of the first antenna by 180 degrees (flipped over). A center feed input port is positioned between the upper antenna element group and the lower antenna element group and is electrically coupled to each of the first, second, third and fourth antenna elements.
