Antenna structure for beamforming
An antenna structure (10, 20) for beamforming is disclosed. The antenna structure (10, 20) comprises: a first set of antenna elements (12a, 12b; 21a, 21b, 21c, 21d, 21e, 21f) connected by a first analog distribution network (14a; 24a) to a first baseband chain (11a; 23a), and a second set of antenna elements (13a, 13b; 22a, 22b, 22c, 22d, 22e, 22f) connected by a second analog distribution network (14b; 24b) to a second baseband chain (11b; 23b), wherein the first set of antenna elements (12a, 12b; 21a, 21b, 21c, 21d, 21e, 21f) are arranged interleaved with the second set of antenna elements (13a, 13b; 22a, 22b, 22c, 22d, 22e, 22f) and wherein the antenna elements of the first and second sets are designed for use on same carrier frequency.
