Abstract

The invention discloses awide scanning range leaky-wave antenna based on liquid crystal tuning and an implementation method thereof. The wide scanning range leaky-wave antenna comprises N radiation units and a feed structure, wherein the feed structure converts electromagnetic waves into electromagnetic waves in a surface wave transmission mode, the electromagnetic waves are fed into the N radiation units, the period of surface impedance distribution of the N radiation units is controlled by independently controlling voltage loaded on each radiation unit, and therefore fixed-frequency beam scanning under voltage control is achieved. The beam scanning of a large-range scanning angle is obtained by controlling the modulation period, so that the antenna beam gain in a large-range beam scanning range can be kept stable, and the problem that the beam scanning range is too small due to the limited dielectric constant change range of liquid crystal is avoided; in addition, as a liquid crystal material has the property of low loss at high frequency bands of millimeter waves and above, the beam scanning antenna and the implementation method thereof provide a solution for millimeter wave mobile communication.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to high-frequency communication technology, in particular to a leaky-wave antenna with a wide scanning range based on liquid crystal tuning and its realization method. Background technique [0002] The leaky wave antenna is a traveling wave antenna, which has the advantages of low cost, low profile, high gain and frequency scanning characteristics. The directional radiation angle of high gain will change with the change of the antenna operating frequency. However, this frequency scanning feature is often not practical in actual communication scenarios. In satellite communication, mobile communication, vehicle radar and other scenarios that require beam scanning, the frequency of the communication signal is a narrow-band signal with a fixed center frequency, so the fixed frequency The beam-scanning feature of the X-ray is more suitable for these modern communication scenarios. [0003] At present, the most mature fixed-frequency b...
