Problems solved by technology

Usually live TV satellites and communication broadcasting satellites work in the dual-polarization or dual-circular polarization state, but most of the current flat-panel array antennas work in the single-linear polarization or single-circular polarization state. Antenna structure or using two antennas to send and receive two polarized signals respectively. These two methods are either complex in structure and cannot achieve dual polarization compatibility at the same time, or the antenna manufacturing cost is high and the equivalent surface efficiency is low.
[0005] The article "Automatic Polarization Adjustment Technology for Satellite Communication Antenna" published by Liu Ying et al. in Radio Engineering No. 7, 2012 introduced a circuit that uses attenuators, phase shifters, etc. to achieve automatic polarization by controlling the ratio of orthogonal linear polarization amplitudes. Adjustment, but due to the insertion loss of components and other reasons, this technology makes automatic polarization adjustment not suitable for the emission state
[0006] On October 29, 2014, Chinese invention patent CN 103022691 B disclosed a new type of "communication in motion" low-profile panel antenna system, including antenna radiation system, radio frequency polarization system, antenna terminal mechanical drive system, satellite pointing, capture , tracking system and indoor unit, which realize the dual-frequency, dual-polarization, and duplex working modes, but the receiving polarizer adopts electronic polarization, which still cannot be shared with the transmitting polarizer
[0007] In addition, Raysat's E7000 mobile communication antenna adopts a mechanical polarization adjustment method, which can realize duplex transmission and reception, but it is only suitable for single-polarization working conditions

Embodiment 1

[0034] Embodiment 1 Single-wire polarized signal reception

[0035] The incoming wave direction is single-linear polarization E, and the polarization direction is arbitrary. The linearly polarized wave can be decomposed into two in-phase linear polarization components according to the two polarization directions of the dual-polarization radiation unit, which are horizontal polarization components E h and the vertically polarized component E v , the horizontal polarization component E received by the dual-polarized antenna unit 11 h It is sent to the horizontal polarization signal transmission channel 21 through the horizontal polarization feed port 112 located under the unit, and finally collected to the main port 211 of the horizontal polarization signal transmission channel and sent to the polarization combiner 3. Similarly, the dual polarization antenna unit 11 receives The vertically polarized component E of v It is sent to the vertical polarization signal transmission c...

Embodiment 2

[0037] Embodiment 2 Single-wire polarized signal transmission

[0038] Contrary to the single-line polarization receiving process, the transmission signal provided by the rear-end radio frequency circuit is sent to the common port 53 of the polarization connection port 51 or 52 of the polarizer 5, and sent to the polarization combiner 3 through the waveguide 4. Common port. At this time, the polarization combiner 3 plays the role of polarization decomposition, and the transmission signal is decomposed into two orthogonal linear polarization signals, which enter the horizontal polarization through the two polarization connection ports 32 and 33 of the polarization combiner 3 respectively. The main port 211 of the polarized signal transmission channel and the main port 221 of the vertical polarized signal transmission channel are distributed to the dual-polarized antenna unit 11 through the polarized signal transmission channel, and recombined at the common port 111 of each dual-...

Embodiment 3

[0039] Embodiment 3 Single circular polarization signal reception

[0040] The incoming wave direction is a single circularly polarized wave E, and the polarization direction is arbitrary. Similar to the single-line polarized reception, the circularly polarized wave can be decomposed into horizontally polarized components E h and the vertically polarized component E v ,E h and E v The amplitudes of the two polarization components are equal, and the phase difference is 90°. The horizontal polarization components E received by all dual-polarized antenna units 11 h The horizontal polarization signal transmission channel 21 converges to the main port 211 of the horizontal polarization signal transmission channel, and the vertical polarization component E v It is also converged at the main port 221 of the vertically polarized signal transmission channel.

[0041] The main port 211 of the horizontal polarization signal transmission channel and the main port 221 of the vertical p...
