Abstract
An integrated antenna device comprises a curved-surface transmitting array and an array antenna. The curved-surface transmitting army has a plurality of focuses to homogenize its radiation gains. The array antenna is arranged between the curved-surface transmitting array and the plurality of focuses. According to the control of an active RF module of the array antenna, the array antenna emits the first-order beam and performs beam scanning. The curved-surface transmitting array is used to focus the first-order beam to produce a second-order beam with high gain. The generation of the beamforming feed excitation weight of the active RF module makes the integrated antenna device have a beam scanning mechanism. The array antenna can be formed by feeder antennas A DSP dynamic groups the feeder antennas to form subarrays, the subarrays can generate different first-order beams for multi-point communications. The first-order beams can be scanned in an interleaved fashion.
