Multibeam Antenna
A multibeam antenna including a substrate, and further includes an antenna element, a first guiding apparatus, and a second guiding apparatus disposed on the substrate. The antenna element includes a first pole configured to receive a feeding signal and a second pole that is grounded. The first guiding apparatus enables a first beam generated by the antenna element to radiate in a first direction, and the second guiding apparatus enables a second beam generated by the antenna element to radiate in a second direction. A phase center of the antenna element is at an intersecting point of a first axis and a second axis, the first axis passing through a phase center of the first guiding apparatus and parallel to the first direction, and the second axis passing through a phase center of the second guiding apparatus and parallel to the second direction.

Antenna feed for a stackable antenna, and associated methods
An antenna feed for a stackable antenna system includes a polarization converter that continuously surrounds an omnidirectional antenna. Electromagnetic radiation emitted by the omnidirectional antenna and having an initial polarization passes through the first polarization converter, which converts the initial polarization into a non-vertical linear polarization. A feedline located outside of the first polarization converter forms a helix that wraps around the first polarization converter such that it runs perpendicularly to the non-vertical linear polarization. When the width of the feedline is sufficiently small, electrons in metal of the feedline will not be excited by the radiation, and the radiation will transmit through the feedline with minimal impact on the omnidirectional antenna's gain profile. The feedline may be used to feed a second antenna located vertically above the omnidirectional antenna. When the first polarization converter outputs horizontally polarized radiation, the feedline may form a straight vertical line.
