A low‐profile antenna with circularly polarized reconfigurable and omnidirectional radiation patterns

A low profile circularly polarized (CP) antenna with reconfigurable polarization is designed and presented, which can radiate omnidirectional patterns that can be switched between left‐hand circularly polarized (LHCP) and right‐hand circularly polarized (RHCP). A pair of arc‐shaped complementary dipoles is acted as reconfigurable elements by bridging four pin diodes at the dipole arced arms. A meander phase shift line is employed to connected the arc dipole arms and plate cavity to adjust the phase relationship of two sources. The proposed antenna exhibits the omnidirectional radiation pattern by combining six identical elements placed in a circular array configuration. 24 p‐i‐n diodes are exploited to six elements, by manipulating the dc bias voltage across the diodes, the polarization state of the antenna can be switched. The patterns of the antenna are similar to that of a dipole, but its size is only about Φ0.87 × 0.029λ₀ at 5.8 GHz. The overlapped bandwidth of measured 3‐dB axial ratio (AR) and 10‐dB return loss is 5.724‐5.87 and 5.738‐5.91 GHz for two polarization states, which are right on the target of ISM band. It can be well adapted to medical diagnosis systems.     

Design of a broadband dielectric resonator antenna and its application in low sensitivity frequency beam‐scanning array with wide scanning angle and suppressed sidelobes

In this paper, a broadband dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) with a simple H‐slot feeding structure is proposed. The broad bandwidth (~45%) and uni‐directional radiation enable this DRA suitable to work as a radiation element in the construction of a beam‐scanning array with not only low frequency sensitivity which is important for accurate angle estimation of in‐coming targets, but also a wide scanning range. Moreover, stable coupling coefficients are established around all the above three resonances with respect to its corresponding feeding line, ensuring a low sidelobe level (SLL) across the whole operating frequency range. In order to realize such a DRA, a latticed rectangular structure is utilized to generate the lower two resonances, while the upper resonance is generated by its H‐shaped feeding slot. The shape of the latticed dielectric resonator is also modified according to a 3‐D printed fixing structure for an accurate installation. A 20‐element beam‐scanning prototype is demonstrated and manufactured. The range of scanning angle is from ?36° to +13° within the bandwidth of 10 to 16 GHz, corresponding to a frequency sensitivity of only 122.5 MHz/^o. The achieved SLL are smaller than 19 dB for all scanning beams. The above performance indicates that, this array is very suitable for near‐range radar systems requiring an accurate angle estimation.

高选择性陷波超宽带天线设计

The resonant properties of the interdigital capacitance loading loop resonator (IDCLLR) and its dual counterpart complimentary interdigital capacitance loading loop resonator (CIDCLLR) are studied. Due to the high capacitance/inductance of the IDCLLR/CIDCLLR, the resonators can generate lower resonant frequencies and narrower resonant bandwidths than many other structures. A compact ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna with quadruple sharp band-notching characteristics is presented by utilizing IDCLLRs and CIDCLLRs. Measured results show that the proposed antenna has a wide bandwidth from 3 to 11GHz(VSWR<2), with four sharp notched bands centered on 3.5, 5.2, 5.8 and 7.5GHz, respectively, avoiding the elimination of many useful frequencies. Moreover, the presence of IDCLLRs and CIDCLLRs scarcely affects the performance of the UWB antenna at its operating frequencies.     

偏馈式构架反射器展开冲击特性分析

As the off-fed truss reflector is connected to the platform by a single edge and deployed rapidly through being driven by the spring, the impact influence acts obviously on both the reflector and the platform. Due to limitations of the ground test, the in-orbit deployment impact characteristics of truss reflector are difficult to obtain. Then, by taking a certain reflector as the research object, a dynamic model is established with multibody dynamic software. Based on the modified model with ground deployable tests, in-orbit deployment impact characteristics are obtained by simulation analysis. Therefore, the method for multibody dynamic modeling is suitable for truss reflector dynamic research, and the result is useful for the deployable reliability optimization.
