Problems solved by technology

On page 308 of the book "Theory and analysis of phased array antennas, M.Amitay, V.Galindo and C.P.Wu, published by Wiley Interscience", it is introduced that a rectangular waveguide is loaded around the circular waveguide, so each circular waveguide and a rectangular waveguide An array unit is formed, where the rectangular waveguide acts as a choke slot, which can cut off the surface current propagating between the circular waveguides, but the production is more complicated
Later, in the patent "EP055

Abstract

The invention relates to a low-cross coupling groove array antenna which has the basic principle that a pair of surface groove structures is symmetrically loaded at both sides of adjacent array unitsto modulate the surface wave propagation, and the distribution of surface electromagnetic energy is changed, thereby enabling the energy disturbance among array elements to be quickly reduced. In addition, partial surface electromagnetic energy is radiated to free space with the dispersion of an SPs groove structure, thus increasing the antenna gain, and compressing the wave beam width of the antenna, and therefore, the radiation performance of the antenna is obviously improved. Compared with a structure traditionally restraining surface wave, the novel groove wave-guide gap SP antenna has simple structure and low cost, and the radiation performance such as antenna gain and the like is increased when the surface wave is restrained at the same time. The invention can be widely applied to linear array antenna, area array antenna, phased array antenna and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an array antenna, in particular to a slot array antenna with low mutual coupling. Background technique [0002] In modern radar and communication systems, the array antenna is a commonly used antenna form. It is a directional antenna composed of many radiating elements arranged. In the phased array antenna, the amplitude excitation and phase of each element can be controlled. of. However, the mutual coupling between the antenna radiation elements due to the mutual crosstalk of surface waves will have an important impact on the performance of the array antenna, resulting in the distortion of the radiation pattern of the array elements, resulting in a decrease in beam control accuracy, and even causing scanning blind spots, reducing the Scanning capabilities of small phased array antennas. Therefore, how to suppress the mutual coupling between array antenna elements has become a hot spot for researchers. [0003] In recent yea...
