    摘要: A point-to-point (PtP) communication system includes a near end antenna device configured to transmit a narrow antenna beam over a wireless link, and includes a far end antenna device configured receive the narrow antenna beam over the wireless link. The near end antenna device including a directive element configured to focus an electrical field into the narrow antenna beam, and including a beam steering element (e.g., a phased array feeder (PAF) assembly) configured to generate the electrical field and to track the far end antenna, and further including a communication interface unit (e.g., an outdoor unit) configured to perform operations on a transmitted signal and a received signal.
