Technical Field
The present invention relates generally to the field of base station antennas, and more particularly to an antenna mounting arrangement configured for mounting a plurality of base station antennas collectively on the same mast.
Background
In a mobile communication network, it is necessary to configure base station antennas appropriately according to actual conditions such as coverage requirements of the network, traffic distribution, interference resistance requirements, and the like. In some application scenarios, three or more base station antennas need to be mounted on the pole around the same pole of a communication tower.
Fig. 1 depicts a prior art antenna mounting device comprising two half rings R1, R2 which jointly enclose a pole (e.g. a single pole) and are fixed to each other at their ends such that they firmly clamp and are thereby fixed to the pole. A plurality of connecting elements C1, C2, C3 can be fixed on the two half-rings R1, R2, each connecting element being configured for connection with a base station antenna. In order to ensure the clamping of the two half rings on the pole, the two half rings have a gap S at their ends. During the installation process, it is difficult to ensure the uniformity of the two gaps S. Due to the non-uniformity of the two gaps S and due to the deformation of the two half rings R1, R2 during clamping, the actual position of the respective connecting elements C1, C2, C3 relative to one another often deviates from the predetermined ideal relative position, and therefore there is an undesired deviation of the actual position of the respective base station antennas relative to one another from the predetermined ideal relative position.

In this application, the terms "upper", "lower" and "side" are defined with reference to a pole that is vertically oriented. The pole may also be oriented obliquely or horizontally, wherein the terms are to be understood in a relative sense.
It is noted that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular aspects only and is not intended to be limiting of the disclosure. As used herein, the singular forms "a", "an" and "the" are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It will be understood that the terms "comprises" and "comprising," and other similar terms, when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated operations, elements, and/or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof. The term "and/or" as used herein includes all arbitrary combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. In the description of the drawings, like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout.
The thickness of elements in the figures may be exaggerated for clarity. It will be further understood that if an element is referred to as being "on," "coupled to" or "connected to" another element, it can be directly on, coupled or connected to the other element or intervening elements may be present. Conversely, if the expressions "directly on … …", "directly coupled with … …", and "directly connected with … …" are used herein, then there are no intervening elements present. Other words used to describe the relationship between elements, such as "between … …" and "directly between … …", "attached" and "directly attached", "adjacent" and "directly adjacent", etc., should be similarly interpreted.
Terms such as "top," "bottom," "above," "below," "over," "under," and the like, may be used herein to describe one element, layer or region's relationship to another element, layer or region as illustrated in the figures. It will be understood that these terms are intended to encompass other orientations of the device in addition to the orientation depicted in the figures.
It will be understood that, although the terms first, second, etc. may be used herein to describe various elements, these elements should not be limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one element from another. Thus, a first element could be termed a second element without departing from the teachings of the present inventive concept.
It is also contemplated that all of the exemplary embodiments disclosed herein may be combined with each other as desired.
Finally, it is pointed out that the above-described embodiments are only intended to be understood as an example of the invention and do not limit the scope of protection of the invention. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that modifications may be made in the foregoing embodiments without departing from the scope of the invention.
