Abstract

A multiband antenna array is provided. The multiband antenna array includes a first multi-band antenna unit, a first high band antenna member, and a first low band antenna member. The first multi-band antenna unit includes a first high band antenna element and a first low band antenna element. A first distance is formed between the center of the first multi-band antenna unit and the center of the first high band antenna member. The first distance is 0.3˜0.8 times the wavelength of a high band signal. A second distance is formed between the center of the first multi-band antenna unit and the center of the first low band antenna member. The second distance is 0.3˜0.8 times the wavelength of a low band signal.
