Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a radome based on phase control and transmission technology, and belongs to the technical fields of microwave device technology, radio frequency system front-end technology, circularly polarized antenna, etc. Background Art
[0002] Because external antennas, such as base station antennas, are exposed to the elements year-round and susceptible to damage, and because signals experience significant atmospheric attenuation, they generally require radome protection. Radomes can provide a degree of protection against damage in harsh environments. For example, radomes for large ground-based antennas reduce wind resistance and prevent the accumulation of ice and snow, often taking the form of spherical shells. However, for airborne and missile-borne platforms, conical radomes are essential to minimize air resistance. While radomes protect the antenna, they often have adverse effects. For example, electromagnetic waves emitted by the antenna are reflected on the radome's surface and absorbed within the dielectric layer, resulting in power loss and reducing the range of the electronic system. Refraction of electromagnetic waves in the dielectric layer can cause angular measurement errors. Multiple reflections of electromagnetic waves in the dielectric layer, similar to the multipath effect, can increase nearby clutter.
[0003] At the same time, the rapid development of modern wireless communication technologies, satellite communications and navigation, radar systems, and military electronic countermeasures equipment has placed higher demands on radomes for features such as miniaturization, integration, polarization insensitivity, and low loss. Currently, commercially available radomes typically operate at high frequencies, as the large dimensions of metal antennas at low frequencies make them unsuitable for system miniaturization. While some radomes offer numerous advantages, such as light weight, low cost, and ease of integration, they are not immune to these technical bottlenecks. Consequently, the limited functionality and significant impact on antenna performance of traditional radomes have limited their development. Summary of the Invention

[0049] Example 1
[0050] A radome based on phase control and transmission technology is characterized in that it includes a plurality of radome left-hand circularly polarized wave path coupling modules and a plurality of radome right-hand circularly polarized wave path coupling modules, the radome left-hand circularly polarized wave path coupling modules and the radome right-hand circularly polarized wave path coupling modules are staggered, the radome left-hand circularly polarized wave path coupling modules and the radome right-hand circularly polarized wave path coupling modules are both centrally symmetrically distributed, and the radome left-hand circularly polarized wave path coupling modules and the radome right-hand circularly polarized wave path coupling modules are fixedly connected to each other using a um-level coating process. The um-level coating process is a new technology that uses different materials to form a new surface on the surface of a substrate. There are many coating methods, such as vacuum evaporation, vacuum sputtering, chemical reduction, sol-gel method, etc. The present invention uses a chemical reduction method.
[0051] The radome proposed in this invention consists of two types of path coupling modules; each consists of two metal rings and two polarized radiation patches. The two metal rings are positioned on a first substrate 4, while the two polarized radiation patches are positioned on a lossless second substrate 6, vertically connected by two through-holes. A perforated metal plate 5 is placed between the two substrates to better conduct electromagnetic wave energy to the polarized radiation patches via the first and second metal pillars 9 and 10. The two types of path coupling modules (the radome left-handed circularly polarized wave path coupling module and the radome right-handed circularly polarized wave path coupling module) are identical in size, and the rotational orientation of the two polarized radiation patches differs by 90°. The two path coupling modules are arranged in a 2×2 configuration.
[0052] Furthermore, the radome can realize electromagnetic induced transparency technology through destructive interference of two energy states, thereby causing the signal to produce a slow light effect.
[0053] Furthermore, the radome can achieve adjustable circular-linear polarization conversion, thereby actively regulating the phase of signal transmission.
[0054] Furthermore, the electromagnetically induced transparency technology applied in the radome can generate a transmission window, which can be used as a signal filter to filter out signals in useless frequency bands, thereby achieving electromagnetic protection and modulating signals.
[0055] Furthermore, the radome uses electromagnetically induced transparency to electromagnetically induced absorption technology to actively control the radome using temperature, thereby choosing to completely absorb or transmit electromagnetic waves in a specific frequency band, that is, to achieve controllable electromagnetic stealth in a fixed band, thereby realizing the functional diversity of the radome.
[0056] Furthermore, the slow light effect is generated at low temperatures, between 0.97 THz and 1.16 THz, and the slow light effect can also achieve complete transmission of electromagnetic waves.
[0057] Furthermore, the electromagnetically induced transparency-to-electromagnetic induced absorption technology uses active temperature control to completely absorb or transmit electromagnetic waves in specific frequency bands. At high temperatures, complete electromagnetic wave absorption is achieved between 0.824 THz and 1.233 THz, while at low temperatures, complete electromagnetic wave transmission is achieved between 0.97 THz and 1.16 THz. At 1.06 THz, maximum absorption reaches 90.3%.
[0058] Furthermore, the four metal polarized radiation patches of the antenna cover, namely the first polarized radiation patch 7, the second polarized radiation patch 8, the third polarized radiation patch 14, the fourth polarized radiation patch 15 and the metal plane plate 5, are all made of gold; the conductivity and thickness of the metal material gold are 4.1×10 7 S / m and 0.1 μm;
[0059] Furthermore, the polarization is adjusted to linear-circular polarization conversion. When a left-hand circularly polarized wave or a right-hand circularly polarized wave is incident, the polarized radiation patch receives the left-hand circularly polarized wave or the right-hand circularly polarized wave with the same phase and amplitude, and obtains a synthesized linearly polarized wave between 0.9 THz and 1.2 THz, with a relative bandwidth of 29%; at 1.08 THz, the maximum group index is 1934, and the maximum group delay is 488 ps.
[0060] Furthermore, the relative dielectric constant of the substrate was set to 4 and the thickness was set to 37 μm;
[0061] The inner radius and outer radius of the second ring can be designed to be 25.3 μm and 38.0 μm, respectively;
[0062] The thickness of the first metal ring (1) and the third metal ring (3) is set to 0.5 μm;
[0063] When the vanadium dioxide ring is in an insulating state, the relative dielectric constant is 12 and the conductivity is 200S / m;
[0064] When the vanadium dioxide ring is in the metallic state, the corresponding conductivity is 3× 10 5 S / m. .
[0065] like Figure 8 As shown, the opening of the polarized radiation patch of the left-hand circularly polarized wave path coupling module of the radome in this embodiment faces the upper left corner, and the opening of the polarized radiation patch of the right-hand circularly polarized wave path coupling module of the radome faces the lower left corner.
[0066] This product can realize adjustable circular-linear polarization conversion, thereby actively regulating the phase of signal transmission. Figure 4 As shown in the figure, this product can achieve phase control by converting linear polarization into circular polarization. When a left-handed circularly polarized wave or a right-handed circularly polarized wave is incident, the received electromagnetic wave is radiated by the radiating plate to a left-handed circularly polarized wave or a right-handed circularly polarized wave with the same phase and amplitude, resulting in a synthesized linearly polarized wave between 0.9 THz and 1.2 THz. The relative bandwidth reaches 29%.
[0067] like Figure 5 As shown, this product achieves electromagnetically induced transparency (EMI) through destructive interference between two energy states, creating a slow-light effect on the signal. Furthermore, this EMI technology creates a transmission window that acts as a signal filter, filtering out signals in the unwanted frequency band, thereby providing electromagnetic protection and signal modulation. Furthermore, the slow-light effect occurs at low temperatures, between 0.97 THz and 1.16 THz. This slow-light effect also enables complete transmission of electromagnetic waves.
[0068] This product uses the phase change characteristics of vanadium dioxide materials to achieve electromagnetically induced transparency to electromagnetically induced transparent absorption technology, and uses active temperature control to completely absorb or transmit electromagnetic waves in a specific frequency band. Figure 5 、 6 As can be seen, this product can completely absorb incident electromagnetic waves at high temperatures, between 0.824 THz and 1.233 THz, and can completely transmit incident electromagnetic waves at low temperatures, between 0.97 THz and 1.16 THz. At 1.06 THz, the maximum absorption reaches 90.3%.
[0069] Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the maximum group index and group delay at 1.08 THz of the present invention. As can be seen from the figure, at 1.08 THz, the maximum group index and group delay are 1934 and 488 ps.
[0070] The relative dielectric constant and thickness of the silicon substrate used in the present invention are set to 4 and 37 μm respectively;
[0071] The inner radius and outer radius of the second circular ring made of vanadium dioxide used in the present invention are designed to be 25.3 μm and 38.0 μm respectively. The thickness of the first metal ring and the second metal ring is set to 0.5 μm.
[0072] When the vanadium dioxide ring used in the present invention is in a low-temperature (insulator) state, the relative dielectric constant and conductivity are 12 and 200 S / m respectively. When the vanadium dioxide ring is in a high-temperature (metal) state, the corresponding conductivity is 3× 10 5 S / m.
[0073] After a specific design, the antenna cover of the present invention, in addition to its basic physical protection function, can also realize electromagnetic induced transparency technology through destructive interference between two energy states, thereby causing the signal to produce a slow light effect. At the same time, the present invention can also realize adjustable circular linear polarization conversion and controllable electromagnetic stealth in a fixed band, thereby achieving low loss and functional diversity of the antenna cover. At the same time, the electromagnetic induced transparency technology used in the present invention has a transmission window that can filter out signals in other frequency bands, achieve electromagnetic protection, and modulate the signal. In addition, the present invention not only has an anti-interference effect, but can also be used as a signal filter. In summary, the present invention has the characteristics of thin thickness, low loss, and functional diversity.
[0074] The present invention can simultaneously realize slow-wave effect and polarization operation, and utilizes the phase change characteristics of vanadium dioxide to adjust the system performance. It has the advantages of subwavelength, low loss, multi-function and adjustability in the terahertz band.
