Embodiment Construction

[0029] The invention proposes a dual circularly polarized millimeter wave reflective array antenna with independently controllable beams. The structure consists of a broadband circularly polarized feed horn antenna and a planar reflector array. The planar reflector array is composed of sub-wavelength dual circularly polarized phase-shift units arranged periodically. Each unit is a load and two short-circuit micro The slot-coupled patch of the stripline, and the length and rotation angle of the short-circuited microstrip line of each unit are also different. This dual circularly polarized millimeter-wave reflectarray antenna can generate independent beamforming left-handed and right-handed circularly polarized high-gain directional beams in a wide frequency band, 1dB gain and axial ratio <2dB bandwidth about 15%, and the reflectarray profile is only is 0.29 wavelength. Compared with the existing dual circularly polarized reflectarray antenna, the present invention has the adva...

Abstract

The invention discloses a dual-circularly-polarized millimeter wave reflection array antenna with independently controllable beams, which comprises a broadband circularly-polarized feed horn antenna (1) and a planar reflection array (2). The broadband circularly-polarized feed horn antenna (1) is located near the focal plane of the planar reflection array (2). The planar reflection array (2) is composed of sub-wavelength dual-circularly-polarized phase shifting elements (3) arranged periodically. Each dual-circularly-polarized phase shifting unit (3) contains four metal layers, wherein a firstlayer is a metal patch (3a), a second layer is a metal floor (3c) with two H-shaped slots (3b), a third layer is composed of two metal micro-strip transmission lines (3d) of different lengths, and afourth layer is a metal base plate (3e). The antenna can realize dual-circularly-polarized highly-directional beams, can independently control the beam directions of left-hand circularly-polarized waves and right-hand circularly-polarized waves, and has a broad application prospect in wireless communication and satellite communication.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of electronic devices of wireless communication systems, and in particular relates to a dual circularly polarized millimeter-wave reflection array antenna with independently controllable beams. Background technique [0002] A reflectarray antenna is an electromagnetic wave radiation device that can generate a high-gain beam or a shaped beam, and it is widely used in various wireless communication and satellite communication systems. Unlike traditional parabolic reflector antennas, the beamforming of reflectarray antennas does not depend on the difference in wave path difference, but is based on the phase shift provided by its subwavelength resonant or non-resonant elements, so it can be achieved through a lightweight, low-loss planar structure Achieve high-gain directional or shaped beams. The phase shifting methods of the reflectarray are mainly divided into dynamic phase and rotational phase. Based on these two ph...
