Abstract

The invention discloses a photon crystal patch antenna. The patch antenna fixed on the antenna substrate is connected to a microstrip feeder; an incentive source feeds power to the patch antenna via a feeding port through the a microstrip feeder; the circuit holes are transversely and vertically arrayed on the facial surface of the antenna substrate with equal distances; the reverse surface of the antenna substrate is fixed with a rectangular metal frame; the rectangular metal frame is embedded to periphery of the circular hole. The invention adds the photon crystal structure to the substrate medium of the patch antenna to form a photon forbidden strip; in the frequency range of the forbidden strip, the electromagnetic waves are restricted, which can not be disseminated to any direction; the surface wave along the substrate of the medium can be restricted by the forbidden strip effect of the photon crystal; and the absorption of the electromagnetic wave can be reduced for the antenna substrate; the energy in the antenna substrate of the photon crystal is significantly reflected; the reflective energy from the electromagnetic wave to the free space is strengthened; the returning wave consumption of the antenna is effectively reduced and the antenna argument is increased; so that the invention has the applications in the field of mobile communication, satellite communication and avigation and so on.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of communication, in particular to a photonic crystal patch antenna. Background technique [0002] Photonic crystal refers to the structure whose refractive index is distributed periodically in space. The characteristics of electromagnetic wave transmission inside the crystal are similar to the movement characteristics of electrons in semiconductor crystals, so they are also called photonic crystals or electromagnetic crystals. When the electromagnetic wave is incident on the electromagnetic (photonic) crystal, the propagation of the electromagnetic wave can be prohibited in a certain frequency range, which is called the frequency forbidden band. In 1989, Yablonovitch and Gmitte took the lead in producing a photonic crystal with 8000 "atoms" composed of nine layers of styrene plates, and observed a forbidden band exceeding 2 GHz in the microwave frequency band of 6.5 GHz, which makes the electromagnetic (pho...
