Abstract:
Embodiments disclosed herein include an antenna assembly that includes a dual antenna support and isolation enhancer coupled to a first antenna element for isolating the first antenna element relative to a collocated, vertically-polarized antenna element. The dual antenna support and isolation enhancer can include tabs to support the first antenna element and shield a coaxial cable feeding the first antenna element, a base electrically connected to a shield of the coaxial cable for shorting to ground induced current on the shield of the coaxial cable, and, in some embodiments, at least one of a plurality of loading pins that can form a short-circuited LC resonator that can effectively open-circuit a gap of a coplanar strip transmission line that routes to a feed connection point of the first antenna element when vertically-polarized radiation is incident on the antenna assembly.
