Abstract:
1. An active antenna system comprising: an antenna element arrangement for transceiving first telecommunication signals in a first frequency band and second telecommunications signals in a second frequency band, the first telecommunications signals being different from the second telecommunications signals and the antenna element arrangement having a plurality of antenna elements; a bandpass filter adapted to filter the first telecommunication signals in the first frequency band, an active transceiver arrangement adapted to transceive the second telecommunications signals in a second frequency band, a combining element adapted for combining the first telecommunications signals and the second telecommunications signals into a combined telecommunications signal to be fed into one of the plurality of antenna elements, wherein the one of the antenna elements is adapted to receive the first telecommunications signals in both the first frequency band and second telecommunications signals in the second frequency band; and the combining element is further adapted for splitting concurrently a received combined telecommunications signal from the one of the plurality of antenna elements into a receive signal of the first telecommunication signal in the first frequency band and a receive signal of the second telecommunications signals in a second frequency band.
