Problems solved by technology

[0002] Satellite communication antennas in motion are installed on airplanes, trains, automobiles and ships, while satellites that transmit communication information are in a synchronous orbit 36,000km from the ground. Due to the high density of satellites in the synchronous orbit, satellite communication antennas in motion are When a satellite sends information, first of all, the wide-angle sidelobe envelope of the antenna must meet the technical index requirements stipulated by the ITU. If this requirement is exceeded, it will interfere with the normal operation of adjacent satellites in synchronous orbit, and the ITU will prohibit network access.
Secondly, the orthogonal polarization isolation of the antenna must also meet the requirements of the technical indicators stipulated by the ITU, otherwise it will interfere with the normal work of the users of the same satellite orthogonal polarization multiplexing, and will also be banned from the network by the ITU
The requirements of these two technical indicators are the first conditions that the satellite communication antenna in motion must meet in the launch state, otherwise it cannot be connected to the network.

Embodiment 1

[0029] This embodiment is a dual-polarized four-ridge square horn array antenna for satellite communication in motion for sending and receiving electromagnetic wave signals. The composition of the antenna system is as follows: figure 1 shown. The array antenna of this antenna system has 192 square horns with four ridges arranged in an equidistant square regular array, with 32 columns in the azimuth plane and 6 rows in the elevation plane (see attached Figure 17 As shown), the diameter of each four-ridge square horn is 38.60mm, and the size of the array surface is 1204.20mm×226.60mm. There are 192 four-ridge square horns in the entire array surface, and each four-ridge square horn is connected with an orthogonal mode Connect to form a four-ridge square horn orthogonal mode combination (that is, OMT ridge horn). When manufacturing, 192 OMT ridge horns and two power distribution networks are processed as a whole. First divide the whole into two big blocks, each with a total o...

Embodiment 2

[0041] This embodiment is a dual-polarized four-ridge square horn array antenna for satellite communication in motion that transmits and receives electromagnetic wave signals. The composition of the antenna system is still as attached figure 1 shown. In this embodiment, the structural features and mutual structural forms of the 192 square horns with four ridges, 192 orthogonal mode couplers, the horizontal H power distribution network and the vertical V power distribution network are the same as those in Embodiment 1.

[0042] This embodiment is different from Embodiment 1 in the shape of the metal compensation grid plate. The metal compensation grid plate in this embodiment is composed of rectangular horizontal bars and rectangular vertical bars. There are thirteen horizontal bars, and its shape is as follows: Figure 13 As shown, the horizontal bars are arranged from top to bottom, and the specific numbers are horizontal bars 01 , horizontal bar 02 , ..., horizontal bars ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a COTM satellite communication dual polarization quadruple ridged horn array antenna which is characterized in that 192 quadruple ridged horns are arranged at equal intervals in a square regular array; an azimuth plane comprises 32 columns, and a pitch plane comprises 6 rows; metal compensation grid plates are arranged at openings of the 192 quadruple ridged horns; each metal compensation grid plate divides each quadruple ridged horn into four small equal radiation units, so that the space of the 768 small radiation units formed on an array plane is smaller than a wave length, and when constant-amplitude same-phase feeding occurs to the planes, grating lobes cannot appear in a visible space, and the technical index requirements of the International Telecommunication for access wide-angle sidelobe envelope can be met. According to the antenna system, all technical indexes are advanced, the work is stable and reliable, the insertion loss is low, noise is little, and the antenna is provided with an ultrathin low profile and particularly suitable for being taken as a COTM satellite communication antenna of a mini-automobile, and can be widely used in fields such as radars, communication, remote sensing, remote measuring and the like.
