More Information
Summary:The present invention relates to a system of multi-beam antennas comprising M radiating sources and P networks of N radiating elements, P being greater than 1 and N being an even whole number, the network elements being connected two by two via transmission lines of the same electrical length. In addition, the P networks are co-located at the centre of each network, the M radiating sources are each positioned at a distance Li from said centre, the distance Li being strictly less than the distance of the field called the far field and i varying from 1 to M. This system can be used with MIMO type devices.
