PCTEL's 5-port base station omnidirectional antenna (BOA) is designed for fixed public and private LTE and industrial IoT network deployments.

PCTEL announces multiband antenna for fixed industrial IoT deployments

To illustrate the GO shaping technique described in Section 2, the first case study is an ADE-like configuration designed with uniform amplitude distribution ([G.sub.A] = cte.) over the conical aperture, in order to increase the directivity of the omnidirectional antenna. The feed is a TEM coaxial horn with its radiation pattern described in [8] and modelled as follows in the present synthesis procedure:

GO Shaping of Omnidirectional Dual-Reflector Antennas with Arbitrary Main-Beam Direction in Elevation Plane by Connecting Conic Sections

The manufactured antenna, whose measured gain pattern is depicted in Figure 9, has about 3 dBi gain variation in this plane, which is still acceptable for an omnidirectional antenna.
