The invention discloses a low-profile dual-polarization
dipole base station antenna loaded with an AMC reflecting plate. The antenna comprises a dual-polarization planar
dipole antenna, four plastic support columns and the AMC reflecting plate. The dual-polarization planar
dipole antenna comprises
coupling microstrip lines, an upper
dielectric plate, a radiating structure and coaxial lines from top to bottom in sequence; the AMC reflecting plate comprises a rectangular patch, a lower
dielectric plate, an air
dielectric,
metal support columns and a
metal plate which are periodically arranged from top to bottom in sequence, the
coupling microstrip lines and the radiating structure are located on the upper side and the lower side of the upper
dielectric plate in the same placing direction, and + / -45-degree dual-polarization is achieved in a
coaxial line feeding mode. The dual-polarization planar
dipole antenna is fixed to the AMC reflecting plate through the plastic support columns. Accordingly, the AMC reflecting plate is adopted for replacing an original
metal reflecting plate, the antenna profile height is lowered to 0.132
lambda 2.2 GHz from 0.264
lambda 2.2 GHz, and meanwhile the advantages of being wide in
frequency band, high in isolation, low in
cross polarization, low in cost and the like are reserved. The application requirement of the current
communication industry is met, and the low-profile dual-polarization dipole
base station antenna conforms to the development trend of
miniaturization of current
base station antennae and has practical reference value.
