A dual-polarized active phased array module for 5G millimeter-wave communications
A dual-polarized active phased array antenna module is presented for 5G millimeter-wave communications. The array antennas and multi-channel beamforming chips are printed and implemented on the top and bottom layers of the multilayer PCB (2 mm thickness), respectively. Besides the interconnection of the antenna and chip, power supply and digital control are realized within the middle layers of the multilayer PCB. The measured results show that the beam-scanning range larger than ± 40 degrees (power level declines smaller than 3 dB) and normalized cross-polarization level smaller than -18 dB are both achieved in E- and H-planes. Besides 42.6-45.7 dBm and 43.5-46.1 dBm transmitting equivalent isotropically radiated powers (EIRPs) for V polarization and H polarization are realized respectively.
