Claim:
1. A base station antenna, comprising a beamforming network and multiple antenna arrays; wherein: the beamforming network comprises a hybrid network and a power dividing apparatus; the hybrid network comprises multiple input signal ports for communicating with a transceiver of a base station, and is configured to receive signals from the transceiver, perform phase adjustment on received signals and send signals to the power dividing apparatus; the power dividing apparatus comprises multiple output signal ports for communicating with the antenna arrays, wherein each output signal port is connected to one antenna array; and is configured to receive signals from the hybrid network, perform amplitude adjustment on received signals and output signals to the multiple antenna arrays; and the multiple antenna arrays comprise at least one reverse array, and are configured to receive signals from the power dividing apparatus and transmit received signals, wherein each reverse array is configured to perform phase reversal on a signal to be transmitted by the reverse array with the aid of a different connection configuration of a feeding point than other antenna arrays.
