Problems solved by technology

However, the structure of this antenna is relatively complicated, including a two-layer structure of a feed waveguide and an open radiation waveguide. The antenna is thick and heavy.
The ridge waveguide inclined slot pair antenna (Chinese patent, CN200910184962.6) proposed by Wang Wei, Zhang Hongtao and others has a simple structure and can form standing wave and traveling wave antenna arrays, but this is a linearly polarized antenna that cannot radiate or receive circular polarized electromagnetic waves

Abstract

The invention relates to a circular polarized antenna. A metal waveguide tube of the antenna is the hollow single-ridge metal waveguide tube with the cross section in a shape like the Chinese character 'ao'. One end of the metal waveguide tube is the input end, and the other end of the metal waveguide tube is the output end. The metal walls of upward-protruded narrow sides on the two sides of the metal waveguide tube are respectively provided with an oblique slot. The oblique slots on the two sides of the metal waveguide tube are in mirror symmetry. An included angle between each oblique slot and the longitudinal axis of the metal waveguide tube is theta. A straight slot parallel to the central line of the metal waveguide tube is formed in the horizontal tube wall in a groove of the metal waveguide tube. The eccentric distance is formed between the straight slot and the central line of the metal waveguide tube in the length direction. The geometric center of the two oblique slots in mirror symmetry and the geometric center of the straight slot are located in the same cross section of the metal waveguide tube. The circular polarized antenna is simple in structure, easy to machine and light in weight. Compared with CN 200910184962.6, the weight is reduced by about half when the circular polarized antennas form an antenna array. The port of the output end of the metal waveguide tube of the antenna is short-circuited through metal or is connected and matched with a load so that a standing wave antenna array or a traveling wave antenna array can be conveniently obtained.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the antenna technology in the field of satellite communication, and in particular relates to a metal ridge waveguide circularly polarized antenna. Background technique [0002] Antenna is an essential device in a radio system, and there are various forms of antenna implementation. Antennas are divided according to the polarization mode of work. There are mainly two types of linear polarization and circular polarization. Among them, linear polarization includes horizontal polarization, vertical polarization and oblique polarization, etc., while circular polarization mainly includes left-handed circular polarization and There are two kinds of right-handed circular polarization. Circularly polarized antennas are widely used in satellite communications, weather radar, electronic reconnaissance and countermeasures. In circularly polarized antennas for satellite communications and data transmission, waveguide slot antennas have obv...
