Zusammenfassung:A phased array antenna system comprising: a first plurality of array elements, each array element in the first plurality comprising a radiating element having a generally isotropic radiating pattern and/or a receiving element having a generally omnidirectional field of view; and a second plurality of array elements, each array element in the second plurality comprising a radiating element having a non-isotropic radiating pattern and/or a receiving element having a non-omnidirectional field of view; wherein: the generally isotropic radiating pattern comprises a field of at least 120° in azimuth and 90° in elevation; the generally omnidirectional field of view comprises a field of at least 120° in azimuth and 90° in elevation; the non-isotropic radiating pattern comprises a field of less than half of the field of the generally isotropic radiating pattern in azimuth and/or elevation; and the non-omnidirectional field of view comprises a field of less than half of the field of the omnidirectional field of view.
