Abstract
A patch antenna comprises a patch radiator, at least a first connection point for at least a first radio frequency signal, and at least a first feed structure. The first feed structure is arranged to connect the first connection point to at least two feed points on the patch radiator, a first of the feed points being disposed adjacent to a first edge of the patch radiator, and a second of the feed points being disposed adjacent to a second edge of the patch radiator, the first and second edges being on opposed sides of a central region of the patch radiator. The first feed structure comprises at least a first transmission line arranged to connect the first of the feed points to the second of the feed points, the transmission line being disposed in a substantially parallel relationship to the patch radiator.
