The patent US12046834B2 describes an innovative antenna designed for use in distributed antenna systems. The antenna features a feeding circuit located on one side of a dielectric material, which includes a coplanar waveguide with a signal feed and a signal return. On the opposite side, a radiator circuit is positioned, comprising a monopole radiator and a radiator return. The design incorporates a capacitive coupling between the signal feed and the monopole radiator, along with an edge connection that facilitates electrical connectivity between the signal return and the radiator return. The claims also detail various configurations, including the use of single-layer and two-layer printed circuit boards (PCBs), and the inclusion of an impedance-matching circuit to optimize performance.

Additional features of the antenna include a water-resistant cover that can accommodate a feed cable, ensuring proper electrical connections while maintaining environmental protection. The design allows for the mounting of the antenna to building structures using fasteners that are electrically isolated from the antenna's circuits. The antenna is capable of transmitting electromagnetic radiation across multiple frequency bands, specifically within the range of 100 MHz to 1000 MHz. Furthermore, the materials used in the construction of the feeding circuit, radiator circuit, and edge connection are specified to be copper, and the antenna can be coated with a fire-resistant material. Overall, the patent outlines a comprehensive design aimed at enhancing the functionality and durability of antennas in distributed systems.
