该文提出了一种适用于微波通讯系统的超宽带(UWB)高增益透镜喇叭天线。该天线由一个E面喇叭天线,一个球面介质透镜和双楔形金属脊构成,并由同轴线馈电及采用HFSS软件仿真。仿真结果表明,双楔形金属脊可有效增加喇叭天线的带宽,有效频率带宽达到2~12 GHz。当仅使用双金属脊来改善喇叭天线的性能时,喇叭天线的增益会下降。文中使用一种球面介质透镜来补偿双金属脊对喇叭天线增益的负面影响。仿真结果表明,该透镜可有效提高喇叭天线在工作频带内的增益。采用透镜和金属脊结构后,该喇叭天线拥有超宽带,高增益和较强的定向辐射性能,可以应用于各类通信系统中。 相似文献

It is shown that the far-out sidelobes of a horn antenna can be suppressed by curving the edges in the aperture. A three-dimensional uniform geometrical theory of diffraction (UTD) analysis of the E -plane radiation pattern of the modified horn antenna was performed and compared with straight edges. This analysis indicates that the curvature of the edges does indeed influence the sidelobes to the effect that the modified horn antenna has significantly lower far-out sidelobes. The radiation patterns for modified horns were measured and compared with the calculated patterns and were found to be in good agreement 相似文献

For pt.I see ibid., vol.39, no.11, p.1575-81 (1991). The impedance and radiation patterns of a dipole-fed horn antenna in a ground plane are experimentally investigated at microwave and millimeter-wave frequencies. The agreement with the full-wave analysis technique presented in part I is good. The results indicate that for a 70° flare-angle horn, horn apertures from 1.0 λ-square to 1.5 λ-square with dipole positions between 0.36 and 0.55 λ yield good radiation patterns with a gain of 10-13 dB a cross-polarization level lower than -20 dB, and resonant dipole impedances between 40 Ω and 120 Ω. It is also found that the impedance measurements can be safely used for 2-D horn arrays, but the radiation patterns differ because of the Floquet modes associated with the array environment. The integrated horn antenna is a high-efficiency antenna suitable for applications in millimeter-wave imaging systems, remote-sensing, and radioastronomy 相似文献

A set of radiation pattern functions, suitable for synthesis of radiation patterns from circular aperture horn antennas, is obtained by assuming an aperture distribution consisting of the fields of cylindrical waveguide modes. A technique is presented for using a linear combination of the radiation pattern functions to approximate a desired radiation pattern. Linear combinations of the radiation pattern functions resulting in maximum secondary gain, when used to illuminate a paraboloidal antenna, are obtained empirically. Using spherical wave theory, maximum performance theoretically obtainable from an antenna is derived as a function of the aperture size of the feed system; the feed efficiency resulting from these theoretical limits on performance is compared to the feed efficiency of patterns obtainable from circular aperture horn antennas, and to experimental results of attempts to realize optimum circular aperture horn patterns. 相似文献

在超宽带反射面天线设计中,首要问题是馈电天线的方向图与反射器匹配。以往在频域上对反射面天线的研究发现,当馈源天线方向图给出约-11 dB的边缘照射时,反射面天线可实现其最佳性能。在参数化模拟了作为馈源的透射电子显微镜(TEM)喇叭天线方向图特性的基础上,根据反射面天线的频域设计准则,相应地加入合适的超宽带反射面天线,对其远场辐射特性进行模拟计算。为了获得尽可能大的远场辐射场,采用计算机仿真技术(CST)数值模拟软件,在0 GHz~1 GHz频率范围内模拟了以不同参数TEM喇叭天线作馈源的超宽带反射面天线的远场辐射特性,并在时域上对其结果进行分析。模拟结果表明,由于其相位中心的不确定性,作为馈源的TEM喇叭天线无法与反射面天线完全匹配,其沿着反射面天线主轴移动时产生的反射面口径场相位和幅度的变化影响着远场辐射场的变化,TEM喇叭天线的遮挡效应也不容忽视。 相似文献

A technique is described for creating linear array antennas that conform to the natural stacking sequence of the woodpile electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) material. Each element in the linear array consists of a woodpile EBG sectoral horn antenna. The electromagnetic confinement mechanism within each horn antenna relies wholly on the 3-D EBG of the woodpile material. The array element has a typical sectoral horn pattern with a directional beam in one principal plane and a broader beam in the other. The bandwidth of the sectoral horn is almost equal to that of the defect EBG waveguide. Measured and theoretical results for radiation patterns, impedance bandwidth and gain of a sectoral horn antenna made from alumina are described, and theoretical results for a design made from silicon are presented. It is shown that the layer-by-layer nature of the woodpile EBG material enables sectoral horn antennas to be easily stacked together in the E-plane to create linear arrays. Analysis of the mutual coupling as a function of element separation and its effect on reflection coefficient are presented for a two-element linear array in silicon. Theoretical analyses for fixed and scanned beam linear arrays of silicon woodpile EBG sectoral horns are described and finite-difference time-domain results are compared with array theory. The fixed beam arrays are designed for high directivity while the scanned beam array enables wide angle beam steering through the use of parasitic array elements. 相似文献

Finite-difference time-domain method for antenna radiation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method is used to model and predict the radiation patterns of wire and aperture antennas of three basic configurations. A critical step in each is the modeling of the feed. Alternate suggestions are made and some are implemented. The first antenna is a quarter-wavelength monopole and the second is a waveguide aperture antenna. In both bases the antenna is mounted on ground planes, either perfectly conducting or of composite material. The results obtained using the FDTD technique are compared with results obtained using the geometrical theory of diffraction (GTD) and measurements. The third configuration of interest is a pyramidal horn antenna. To model the flared parts of the horn, a staircase approximation was applied to the antenna surface. The computed radiation patterns compared well with measurements 相似文献

A novel horn antenna based on a circular groove guide is analyzed and measured at Ku-band and Ka-band, respectively. This horn antenna can cover a frequency range from 14 to 40 GHz. Its optimum dimension was obtained according to the maximum directivity. The antenna can be matched efficiently to free space through its large aperture. Moreover, its input VSWR is low. The theoretical radiation patterns are close to the measured ones. 相似文献

The simulation of a plasma sheath using an artificial dielectric is studied in this investigation and is applied to an antenna geometry which is similar to some configurations encountered in aerospace applications. The antenna configuration is equivalent to a horn in an infinite ground plane with an unbounded plasma layer in front of the horn. The plasma layer is simulated by a rodded medium, and the radiation patterns of the antenna system are studied experimentally at 9, 10, and 11 Gc/s. Two constructions of rodded media are utilized in the pattern measurements. The experimentally determined radiation patterns have a secondary maximum associated with the properties of the plasma sheath. More energy is radiated in the OFF-axis region when the plasma sheath is present. 相似文献

Nowadays, an increasing number of applications need stable radiation patterns with low sidelobes and low crosspolar levels in a very wide bandwidth. Gaussian profiled horn antennas (GPRAs) have demonstrated their feasibility as one of the best solutions. A corrugated Gaussian horn antenna design with more than 40% bandwidth is proposed. The measured radiated far field patterns are in good agreement with the simulated ones. The measured results show a Gaussian antenna with extremely wide bandwidth, low sidelobes, and low crosspolar levels 相似文献

The radiation patterns and gain of dielectric wall diagonal horn antennas of various thicknesses (0.15cm and 0.32 cm) and dielectric constants (? = 2.54, 2.56 and 3.03) have been experimentally studied and compared with a metal diagonal horn antenna having the same aperture at 9.418 GHz. Radiation patterns of these dielectric horn antennas when used as square horns are also presented and compared with a similar metal horn. The use and applicability of dielectric horn antennas is discussed. 相似文献

The corrugated horn discussed here is a valuable tool for use in microwave pattern ranges. It has the properties of concentrated energy in the main beam, low backlobes, high efficiency and almost monotonic amplitude, and phase radiation patterns which make the corrugated horn useful for a source antenna in a pattern range and also as a possible standard antenna for calibration purposes. A sample of the references that have dealt with the corrugated horn is given for the benefit of the reader [1]-[7]. 相似文献

Approximate analytic expressions for the far-field radiation pattern and modal reflection coefficient of the three-dimensional horn antenna have been developed. Based upon a multiple-image model of the two-dimensional horn-waveguide structure, this approach offers greater generality than previously proposed ray analyses with comparable complexity and accuracy. The uniform asymptotic theory (UAT), which is employed throughout, provides information when this approach is valid for a desired degree of accuracy in the solution. It is demonstrated that, in most cases, the far-field pattern of the horn is reducible to the pattern of a simple slit in an absorbing screen illuminated by an array of patterned line sources. The measured patterns of several horns are convincingly recovered by the prediction of the analytical model. The same model is used to calculate the modal reflection coefficient of the horn-waveguide structure and, again, comparison with measured results is excellent. 相似文献

Edge diffraction theory is used in analyzing the radiation characteristics of typical horn antennas. The far-sidelobe and backlobe radiation has been solved without employing field equivalence principles which are impractical in the problem. A corner reflector with a magnetic line source located at the vertex is proposed as a model for the principalE -plane radiation of horn antennas. A complete pattern, including multiple interactions and images of induced line sources, is obtained in infinite series form. Diffraction mechanisms are used for appropriate approximations in the computations. The computed patterns are in excellent agreement with measured patterns of typical horn antennas. Radiation intensity of the backlobe relative to mainlobe intensity is obtained as a back-to-front ratio and plotted as a function of antenna dimensions. 相似文献

Biconical antennas and conical horns with elliptic cross section 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The mode-matching technique is applied to the problem of radiation from a conical antenna with elliptic cross section including the degeneration to a sector antenna. In the `guiding region' of the antenna the transverse electromagnetic wave is considered as well as higher-order waves which are described by products of Lame functions which satisfy the boundary conditions. In the exterior region, the field is expanded into products of Lame polynomials. Antenna input impedances and far-field patterns are shown as results. In addition to computing the far-field patterns of a conical horn with elliptic cross section by the aperture field method, the authors analyze the radiation field by a multipole expansion to the mode-matching technique 相似文献
