摘要
This article presents a new method to realize sectoral antennas for base station by incorporating metallic partially reflecting surface (M-PRS). The main idea consists in inserting simple radiating elements. as patches, inside a Fabry-Perot cavity resonator. This consists of a ground plane, where the feeding system rests covered by a rectangular M-PRS. A patch array is used as a feeding structure to enhance directivity and radiation bandwidth. A rectangular M-PRS antenna for the uplink UMTS frequency band [1.92-1.98 GHz] working in vertical polarization is designed, and its performances are disclosed. Finally, a prototype is realized and the experimental measurements are compared to the simulated ones. (C) 2010 Wiley Periodicals. Inc.
