Embodiment 1

[0050] Taking the axial ratio measurement of Ka broadband satellite communication waveguide circular polarizer as an example, the operating frequency of the waveguide circular polarizer to be tested is 20GHz for receiving, 30GHz for transmitting, and the circular waveguide with an output waveguide diameter of 11.264mm has an axial ratio of about 1dB. The standard waveguide circular polarizer is also a broadband waveguide circular polarizer for receiving 20GHz and transmitting 30GHz, and its axial ratio is <0.3dB. According to the waveguide transmission theory, the output circular waveguide will have high-order modes in the transmitting frequency band, and the reflection of the high-order modes will seriously affect the test accuracy (fluctuation greater than 2dB) during the reverse polarization test.

[0051] In order to ensure matching with the waveguide circular polarizer to be tested, the influence of high-order modes is eliminated. A dual-polarization attenuator was used i...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and device for measuring the axial ratio of a waveguide circular polarizer, belonging to the technical field of satellite communication. Background technique [0002] In the field of digital communication or radar technology, waveguide circular polarizers are often used for signal conversion and transmission, and one of the key performance indicators of waveguide circular polarizers is the axial ratio of waveguide circular polarizers. [0003] The traditional waveguide circular polarizer axial ratio measurement method needs to accurately measure the amplitude and phase difference of the signal through the network analyzer, that is, to measure the distance between the two linearly polarized wave components (vertical polarization and horizontal polarization) that make up the circularly polarized wave. The magnitude and phase difference of , so as to complete the calculation of the axial ratio. Or install the circular ...
