Abstract:
A base station antenna includes a panel that has a ground plane, first and second arrays that have respective first and second sets of linearly arranged radiating elements mounted on the panel, and a decoupling unit positioned between a first radiating element of the first array and a first radiating element of the second array. The decoupling unit includes at least a first sidewall that faces the first radiating element of the first array, a second sidewall that faces the first radiating element of the second array and an internal cavity that is defined in the region between the sidewalls. The first and second sidewalls are electrically conductive and electrically connected to the ground plane.

Claim (Index 19):
A base station antenna, comprising:\n a panel that includes a ground plane; a first linear array that includes a first plurality radiating elements that extend forwardly from the panel, the first linear array extending along a first axis; a second linear array that includes a second plurality of radiating elements that extend forwardly from the panel, the second linear array extending along a second axis that is generally parallel to the first axis; and a plurality of parasitic coupling units extending along a third axis between the first linear array and the second linear array, wherein each parasitic coupling unit comprises spaced-apart first and second metal parasitic coupling structures that face each other to define an internal cavity therebetween, each parasitic coupling structure including a base and a wall that extends forwardly from the base, wherein at least some of the parasitic coupling units are tuned to increase the phase alignment between RF energy radiated by the first linear array that is not absorbed by elements of the base station antenna and RF energy radiated by the first linear array that is absorbed by ones of the second plurality of radiating elements and re-radiated therefrom.
