PHASED ANTENNA ARRAYS FOR HIGH-RISE PLATFORMS Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC B64C1/36 H01Q1/24 H01Q1/28 H04B7/06 

FIELD: wireless communication.

SUBSTANCE: aerial aircraft containing a fuselage, wings connected to the fuselage, and a transceiver is proposed. The aerial aircraft additionally contains a set of flat phased antenna arrays connected to the transceiver and rigidly attached to the fuselage or at least one of wings. The set of flat phased antenna arrays contains the first flat phased antenna array having the first normal vector and the second flat phased antenna array having the second normal vector. The first normal vector is not parallel to the second normal vector. When using rigidly attached phased antenna arrays, a vehicle operating as a high-rise platform can transmit and receive signals corresponding to communication lines, regardless of a separate mechanical system, which reduces the size and weight of the vehicle. As a result of reducing the size and weight of the vehicle, this vehicle may require lower production and operation costs. As an addition, the vehicle may have increased strength compared to vehicles that contain a mechanical system for rotating the phased antenna array. In addition, due to the lower weight of the vehicle, this vehicle can operate at higher altitudes and may have an increased serviced coverage area. When using the vehicle as a high-rise platform, a wireless communication system (for example, a mobile phone system) can provide (or maintain) communication lines that use less energy compared to communication lines provided by satellites.

EFFECT: providing the possibility of wireless communication using a high-rise platform.
