US Patent 12119554 Planar monolithic combiner and multiplexer for antenna arrays

Antenna arrays comprising planar combiner networks. An apparatus includes a first antenna component comprising a first waveguide combiner and a first radiating element. The apparatus includes a second antenna component comprising a second waveguide combiner and a second radiating element. The second radiating element supports a polarization that is orthogonal to a polarization of the first radiating element, and the first antenna component is located next to the second antenna component within an antenna array. The first antenna component and the second antenna component are disposed within a lattice spacing of the antenna array.
