Abstract (en)

Embodiments of the present invention provide an antenna system and a base station. The antenna system according to the present invention includes a first antenna array configured to form wide beam coverage and a second antenna array configured to form narrow beam coverage. The first antenna array includes at least one column of antennas, where each column of antennas provide at least one wide beam port; the second antenna array includes at least two columns of antennas, and the second antenna array provides at least one narrow beam port. The embodiments of the present invention resolve a problem that close-spaced multi-column antennas can provide only a narrow beam, and satisfy a requirement that an antenna system should provide both a wide beam and a narrow beam.
