No where in patent 5,923,229 is the concept of sectorizing mentioned. It is mentioned (the high gain antenna array) in 6,243,427, which leads me to believe no one here has actually read the patents.

5,923,229 SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention, generally speaking, provides an integrated diplexer/filter assembly that is small, low cost and not easily susceptible to mechanical or environmental damage. In accordance with one embodiment of the invention, the integrated diplexer/filter assembly has a body formed at least in part of conductive material, the body including a first port for receiving a transmit signal, a second port for feeding the transmit signal to an antenna and for receiving a receive signal, and a third port for receiving the receive signal. A first waveguide segment joins the first and second ports, and a second waveguide segment joins second and third ports, the first and second waveguide segments having a portion in common. A filter element is disposed within at least one of the first and second waveguide segments.

Diplexers like this are a dime a dozen. How much profit is there in small and low cost!! LOLOLOLOL

6,243,427 describes the modulation employed and the high gain antenna array for secorizing. The modulation is antique, the high antenna array is hardly unique.
