Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of Doppler microwave detection, and in particular to a microwave Doppler detection antenna and a manufacturing method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Wireless communication technology, which uses electromagnetic waves as information carriers, is an important symbol of the development of modern science. Since its birth, it has developed rapidly and has been widely used in production, life and military, such as satellite communication systems, satellite navigation systems, remote control systems and daily RFID identification systems. Antennas, as the basic hardware for transmitting and receiving electromagnetic waves, have different structural and index characteristic requirements when they are applied to different fields. Specifically, in the field of Doppler microwave detection, a microwave Doppler detection antenna based on the Doppler effect principle transmits a microwave beam and receives a reflected echo formed by the microwave beam being reflected by a corresponding object, and then generates a Doppler intermediate frequency signal corresponding to the frequency difference between the microwave beam and the reflected echo by mixing detection based on the Doppler effect principle, so as to feedback the movement of the corresponding object with the Doppler intermediate frequency signal. With the development of Internet of Things technology, artificial intelligence, smart home, and smart security technology have higher and higher requirements for environmental detection, especially for the detection accuracy of human presence, movement and micro-motion characteristics, and the requirements for radiation gain in the index characteristics of microwave Doppler detection antennas are improved.
[0003] That is to say, the microwave Doppler detection antenna based on the Doppler effect principle needs to have both transmitting and receiving functions, and has high requirements for the radiation gain in the transmitting state. Specifically, the existing microwave Doppler detection antenna mainly adopts a columnar radiation source structure and a planar radiation source structure, and adopts a transmitting and receiving integrated design based on the miniaturization trend. The microwave Doppler detection antenna with a columnar radiation source structure has a radiation dead zone and has poor applicability compared to the microwave Doppler detection antenna with a planar radiation source structure. The existing microwave Doppler detection antenna mostly adopts a planar radiation source structure. Figure 1A and Figure 1BAs shown, the structural principle of the existing microwave Doppler detection antenna with a planar radiation source structure adopting a transmitting-receiving integrated design is schematically illustrated, wherein the microwave Doppler detection antenna includes a reference ground 10P and a radiation source 20P, wherein the radiation source 20P includes at least one radiation element 21P, wherein each radiation element 21P is spaced apart from the reference ground 10P in a state tending to be parallel by a radiation source substrate 30P, wherein each radiation element 21P is provided with and has only one feeding point 211P, wherein in the state where each radiation element 21P is fed at its feeding point 211P, the radiation element 21P is coupled with the reference ground 10P to establish an internal electric field and a fringe electric field between the radiation element 21P and the reference ground 10P with the edge of the radiation element 21P as the boundary, then the internal electric field is an electric field established in a direction perpendicular to both the radiation element 21P and the reference ground 10P, and the fringe electric field is an electric field established in a direction not perpendicular to both the radiation element 21P and the reference ground 10P. The electric field is established in the direction of the radiation element 21P and the reference ground 10, wherein based on the alternating propagation of the electric field and the magnetic field, the fringe electric field can form a radiation near field and further form a radiation far field to form the emission of the microwave beam, that is, the energy of the fringe electric field is the basis of the radiation energy of the microwave Doppler detection antenna and is directly related to the radiation gain of the microwave Doppler detection antenna. In order to ensure the energy of the fringe electric field, the existing microwave Doppler detection antenna generally adopts the radiation source substrate 30P with a dielectric constant lower than 3.5 to reduce the energy of the internal electric field, and ensures the formation of the electric field between the radiation element 21P and the reference ground 10P by limiting the thickness of the radiation source substrate 30P to be less than or equal to 1 mm to produce an initial polarization direction, and reduces the dielectric loss between the radiation element 21P and the reference ground 10P, thereby ensuring the radiation gain of the microwave Doppler detection antenna.
[0004] However, when the radiation source substrate 30P is configured to use a material with a dielectric constant lower than 3.5, in order to achieve the operating frequency of the microwave Doppler detection antenna, such as the operating frequency of the 5.8G frequency band, the radiation element 21P must have a larger area. Specifically, taking a high-frequency PCB substrate with a dielectric constant of 3.5 and a thickness of 1.0 mm as an example of the radiation source substrate 30P, in order to achieve the operating frequency of the 5.8GHz frequency band, the size of the radiation element 21P is about 13mm*18mm. On the one hand, due to the structural stability of the existing high-frequency PCB substrate and the original structure of double-sided copper cladding, the size of the radiation source substrate 30P is often larger than the size of the radiation element 21P, which causes the problem that the size of the existing microwave Doppler detection antenna is difficult to reduce and the waste problem in the manufacturing process; on the other hand, the size of the reference ground 10P must also meet the requirement of being larger than the size of the radiation element 21P, that is, the minimum size bottleneck of the radiation element 21P is the bottleneck limit of the size of the existing microwave Doppler detection antenna. Only when the minimum size bottleneck of the radiation element 21P is reduced, the size of the existing microwave Doppler detection antenna can be reduced. Summary of the invention

[0090] The following description is used to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement the present invention. The preferred embodiments described below are only examples, and those skilled in the art can think of other obvious variations. The basic principles of the present invention defined in the following description can be applied to other embodiments, variations, improvements, equivalents, and other technical solutions that do not deviate from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
[0091] Those skilled in the art should understand that, in the disclosure of the present invention, the orientation or position relationship indicated by the terms "longitudinal", "lateral", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc. are based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the drawings, which are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, the above terms should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0092] It is to be understood that the term "one" should be understood as "at least one" or "one or more", that is, in one embodiment, the number of an element may be one, while in another embodiment, the number of the element may be multiple, and the term "one" should not be understood as a limitation on the quantity.
[0093] Referring to the accompanying drawings of the present invention FIG. 2A to FIG. 2D, the structural principle of a microwave Doppler detection antenna according to an embodiment of the present invention is illustrated, wherein the microwave Doppler detection antenna adopts a planar radiation source structure and includes at least one radiation element 10 and a reference ground 20 spaced apart from the radiation element, and a radiation source substrate 30 arranged between the radiation element 10 and the reference ground 20 to form a state in which the radiation element 10 is spaced apart from the reference ground 20, wherein the radiation element 10 equivalently has at least one electrical feeding point 11, wherein in the state in which the radiation element 10 is fed by connecting a corresponding excitation signal to the electrical feeding point 11, the radiation element 10 is coupled with the reference ground 20 to establish an internal electric field 100 and an edge electric field 200 with the edge of the radiation element 10 as the boundary, then the internal electric field 100 is perpendicular to both the radiation element 10 and the reference ground 20 The electric field is established in a direction not perpendicular to the radiation element 10 and the reference ground 20, and the fringe electric field 200 is an electric field established in a direction not perpendicular to the radiation element 10 and the reference ground 20 at the same time. Since the internal electric field 100 is perpendicular to the radiation element 10 and the reference ground 20 at the same time, the energy of the internal electric field 100 is bounded and consumed in the portion of the radiation source substrate 30 bounded by the radiation element 10. Since the fringe electric field 200 is an electric field established in a direction not perpendicular to the radiation element 10 and the reference ground 20 at the same time, the fringe electric field 200 can form a radiation near field based on the alternating propagation of the electric field and the magnetic field and further form a radiation far field to form the emission of the microwave beam. That is to say, the energy of the fringe electric field 200 is the basis of the radiation energy of the microwave Doppler detection antenna and is directly related to the radiation gain of the microwave Doppler detection antenna.
[0094] In particular, in this embodiment of the present invention, by using a material with a dielectric constant greater than or equal to 7 as the radiation source substrate 30, such as using at least one of ceramic, mica, latex and resin composite materials in the form of one or more layers of plates as the radiation source substrate 30, and preferably using a ceramic material with a dielectric constant greater than or equal to 10 in the form of a layer of plates as the radiation source substrate 30, the minimum area size bottleneck of the radiation element 10 can be reduced, which is conducive to reducing the size of the microwave Doppler detection antenna. However, since the dielectric constant of the radiation source substrate 30 is increased relative to the existing microwave Doppler detection antenna, the radiation The increase in the dielectric constant of the radiation source substrate 30 corresponds to an increase in the intensity of the internal electric field 100, which can suppress the edge electric field 200. That is to say, the increase in the dielectric constant of the radiation source substrate 30 is not conducive to the formation of the radiation near field and the radiation far field of the microwave Doppler detection antenna, which correspondingly causes the radiation gain of the microwave Doppler detection antenna to be low or even unable to emit microwave beams normally. Therefore, the microwave Doppler detection antenna using a material with a dielectric constant greater than or equal to 7 as the radiation source substrate 30 is only suitable for receiving antennas and cannot be used in the field of microwave detection based on the Doppler effect principle in the form of a combined transmitter and receiver.
[0095] Based on this, in this embodiment of the present invention, the thickness of the radiation source substrate 30 is further set to be greater than or equal to λ / 32 within the error range of 10%, so that the inhibitory effect on the fringe electric field 200 caused by the enhancement of the internal electric field 100 due to the increase in the dielectric constant of the radiation source substrate 30 can be reduced, thereby ensuring the energy of the fringe electric field 200 of the microwave Doppler detection antenna in the fed state, and correspondingly ensuring the radiation gain of the microwave Doppler detection antenna, wherein λ is a wavelength parameter corresponding to the frequency parameter of the microwave Doppler detection antenna (that is, the frequency parameter of the corresponding excitation signal), that is, when a material with a dielectric constant greater than or equal to 7 is used as the On the basis of the radiation source substrate 30, by setting the thickness of the radiation source substrate to be greater than or equal to λ / 32 within an error range of 10%, the enhancement effect of the internal electric field 100 due to the increase in the dielectric constant of the radiation source substrate 30 is suppressed, and the inhibitory effect of the internal electric field 100 on the fringe electric field 200 is correspondingly reduced, thereby ensuring the radiation gain of the microwave Doppler detection antenna, and at the same time, due to the increase in the dielectric constant of the radiation source substrate 30, the minimum area size bottleneck of the radiation element 10 is reduced, which is conducive to significantly reducing the area of the radiation element 10 by slightly increasing the thickness of the radiation source substrate 30 and reducing the size of the microwave Doppler detection antenna.
[0096] Specifically, in this embodiment of the present invention, the radiation element 10 is equivalent to having an electrical feeding point 11, wherein the direction of the line from the electrical feeding point 11 to the physical center point of the radiation element 10 is the polarization direction of the radiation element 10, the dielectric constant of the radiation source substrate 30 is greater than or equal to 7, and the thickness of the radiation source substrate 30 is greater than or equal to λ / 32 within an error range of 10%, for comparison with Figure 1A In the illustrated existing microwave Doppler detection antenna, the radiation element 10 is set to be rectangular, wherein when the radiation element 10 is set to be rectangular, the radiation element 10 has a size bottleneck greater than or equal to 3λ / 32 in the polarization direction, and has a size bottleneck greater than or equal to λ / 8 in the direction perpendicular to the polarization direction on the radiation element 10. Preferably, the dimension a of the radiation element in the polarization direction satisfies a≤3λ / 16, and the dimension b in the zero potential line direction satisfies ≤λ / 4, corresponding to the shape in which the radiation element 10 is set to be rectangular, the dimension a of the radiation element 10 in the polarization direction satisfies 3λ / 32≤a≤3λ / 16, and the dimension b in the direction perpendicular to the polarization direction on the radiation element 10 satisfies λ / 8≤b≤λ / 4, and when the radiation element 10 is set to be circular, the diameter d of the radiation element 10 is ≤3λ / 16. That is to say, when the microwave Doppler detection antenna is set to an operating frequency of 5.8 GHz, the corresponding λ is 51.7 mm, and the rectangular radiating element 10 has a size bottleneck of greater than or equal to 4.85 mm in the polarization direction, and a size bottleneck of greater than or equal to 6.46 mm in the direction perpendicular to the polarization direction on the radiating element 10. Therefore, compared with Figure 1A The 13mm*18mm size of the radiation element 21P of the existing microwave Doppler detection antenna shown in FIG. 1 presents a beneficial effect of significantly reducing the area of the radiation element 10 by slightly increasing the thickness of the radiation source substrate 30 , thereby facilitating reducing the size of the microwave Doppler detection antenna.
[0097] It is worth mentioning that by increasing the thickness of the radiation source substrate 30 to be greater than or equal to λ / 32 within an error range of 10%, the microwave Doppler detection module's ability to receive weak electromagnetic wave signals is also enhanced, and the accuracy of the microwave Doppler detection antenna in detecting weak movements is correspondingly improved, so that the microwave Doppler detection antenna is suitable for detecting weak movements such as human movement, micro-movement, breathing and heartbeat, and is used for human presence detection.
[0098] It is also worth mentioning that in this embodiment of the present invention, in contrast to Figure 1AIn the existing microwave Doppler detection antenna shown in FIG. 1 , the radiation element 10 is set to be a rectangle, wherein the specific shapes of the radiation element 10 and the reference ground 20 do not constitute a limitation to the present invention, wherein the radiation element 10 and the reference ground 20 are preferably set to be conductive plates of regular shapes, such as but not limited to square, rectangle, circle, ellipse, isosceles trapezoid, isosceles triangle, ring, and regular polygon.
[0099] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the present invention, in the polarization direction of the radiation element 10, the edge of the radiation source substrate 30 is set to be aligned with the edge of the radiation element 10 within an error range of λ / 128, so as to further reduce the absorption of the energy of the fringe electric field 200 by the radiation source substrate 30 made of a material with a dielectric constant greater than or equal to 7, thereby ensuring the radiation gain of the microwave Doppler detection antenna by ensuring the energy size of the fringe electric field 200.
[0100] That is to say, on the same side of the straight line on the radiation element 10 passing through the physical center point of the radiation element 10 and perpendicular to the polarization direction, the distance between the edge of the radiation element 10 and the edge of the radiation source substrate 30 in the polarization direction is less than or equal to λ / 128, that is, on the same side of the straight line on the radiation element 10 passing through the physical center point of the radiation element 10 and perpendicular to the polarization direction, the dimension d1 of the radiation element 10 in the polarization direction and the dimension d2 of the radiation source substrate 30 in the polarization direction satisfy |d1-d2|≤λ / 128, wherein based on the corresponding manufacturing process, the dimension d1 of the radiation element 10 in the polarization direction is not limited to be less than or equal to the dimension d2 of the radiation source substrate 30 in the polarization direction, and preferably satisfies d1=d2. Therefore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the dimension d2 of the radiation source substrate 30 in the polarization direction is smaller than the dimension d1 of the radiation element 10 in the polarization direction, correspondingly, in the polarization direction, the radiation source substrate 30 between a portion of the edge of the radiation element 10 and the reference ground 20 is hollowed out.
[0101] It is worth mentioning that in the polarization direction of the radiation element 10, the edge of the radiation source substrate 30 is set to be aligned with the edge of the radiation element 10 within the error range of λ / 128, so that the board size of the radiation source substrate 30 can be reduced because the bottleneck of the minimum area size of the radiation element 10 is reduced. At the same time, the radiation source substrate 30 has a board area close to that of the radiation element 10, which is beneficial to reduce the waste of the radiation source substrate 30 and / or the waste of the material of the radiation element 10 during the production process of the microwave Doppler detection antenna, thereby helping to improve the economic benefits of the microwave Doppler detection antenna.
[0102] Furthermore, a straight line on the radiation element 10 passing through the physical center point of the radiation element 10 and perpendicular to the polarization direction of the radiation element 10 is taken as the zero potential line of the radiation element 10, wherein on the same side of the straight line passing through the physical center point of the radiation element 10 in the polarization direction, in the direction of the zero potential line of the radiation element 10, the edge of the radiation source substrate 30 is preferably arranged to be aligned with the edge of the radiation element 10 within an error range of λ / 128, so as to further reduce the plate size of the radiation source substrate 30 so that the radiation source substrate 30 has a plate area close to that of the radiation element 10.
[0103] In particular, the distance between the electrical feeding point 11 and the physical center point of the radiating element 10 is greater than or equal to λ / 128, which is beneficial to reducing the strength requirement of the microwave Doppler detection antenna for the corresponding excitation signal, so that when the radiating element 10 is fed by the corresponding excitation signal at the electrical feeding point 11, the microwave Doppler detection antenna is more likely to generate an initial polarization direction.
[0104] Furthermore, the microwave Doppler detection antenna also includes a feed source, wherein the feed source is configured to allow power to be supplied and output at least one excitation signal with the positive electrode or the ground of the corresponding power supply as the reference ground electrode. When the radiating element 10 is fed with power by receiving the excitation signal at the electrical feeding point 11, the radiating element 10 is electrically connected to the reference ground electrode at the zero potential line, thereby reducing the impedance of the microwave Doppler detection antenna at a frequency deviating from the resonant operating point, correspondingly narrowing the frequency bandwidth of the microwave Doppler detection antenna and facilitating improving the anti-interference performance of the microwave Doppler detection antenna.
[0105] It is worth mentioning that the impedance of the microwave Doppler detection antenna at a frequency deviating from the resonant operating point is reduced, and the corresponding frequency bandwidth of the microwave Doppler detection antenna is narrowed, that is, the quality factor of the microwave Doppler detection antenna is improved and the reception of the microwave Doppler detection antenna to signals outside the resonant frequency is limited. Then, the background interference signal of the microwave Doppler detection antenna that increases with the corresponding Doppler intermediate frequency signal due to the increase in the thickness of the radiation source substrate 30 can be limited, which is beneficial to improve the sensitivity of the microwave Doppler detection antenna while ensuring the anti-interference performance of the microwave Doppler detection antenna.
[0106] In addition, when the radiation element 10 is fed, the radiation element 10 is electrically connected to the reference ground at the zero potential line, thereby avoiding the polarization balance mismatch caused by the design and processing errors of the radiation element 10 from being aggravated by the increase in the thickness of the radiation source substrate 30, that is, avoiding the reduction in the stability of the microwave Doppler detection antenna caused by the increase in the thickness of the radiation source substrate 30, which is beneficial to ensuring the working stability of the microwave Doppler detection antenna.
[0107] Specifically, in this embodiment of the present invention, when the radiating element 10 is fed, the reference ground 20 is electrically connected to the reference ground electrode of the feed source, wherein the radiating element 10 is electrically connected to the reference ground electrode at the zero potential line, thereby forming a relationship in which the radiating element 10 is electrically connected to the reference ground electrode. This is simple and easy and will not cause congestion in the circuit layout, which is beneficial to improving the anti-interference performance of the microwave Doppler detection antenna and its adaptability to the current miniaturization trend.
[0108] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the present invention, when the radiating element 10 is fed by receiving the excitation signal at the electrical feeding point 11, the radiating element 10 is electrically connected to the reference ground 20 at the physical center point of the radiating element 10 and is electrically connected to the reference ground pole.
[0109] Specifically, the radiation source substrate 30 is penetrated by a grounding hole 31 in a direction perpendicular to the radiation element 10 at a position corresponding to the physical center point of the radiation element 10, wherein a metal grounding piece 311 is inserted into the grounding hole 31, wherein the radiation element 10 and the reference ground 20 are electrically connected to the metal grounding piece 311, and the radiation element 10 is electrically connected to the reference ground 20 at the physical center point of the radiation element 10 via the metal grounding piece 311.
[0110] It is worth mentioning that, in the state where the radiating element 10 is fed, the radiating element 10 is electrically connected to the reference ground at the zero potential line, wherein the number and specific positions of the connection points between the radiating element 10 and the reference ground do not constitute a limitation to the present invention. Corresponding to the state where the reference ground 20 is electrically connected to the reference ground of the feed source, the radiation source substrate 30 is penetrated in a direction perpendicular to the radiating element 10 at a position corresponding to the zero potential line of the radiating element 10 and has at least one grounding hole 31, wherein the specific number of the grounding holes 31 does not constitute a limitation to the present invention. In some embodiments of the present invention, the number of the grounding holes 31 is multiple, and preferably they are symmetrically distributed at the position of the radiation source substrate 30 corresponding to the zero potential line of the radiating element 10 with the physical center point of the radiating element 10, so as to facilitate the balanced distribution of the potential of the radiating element 10 in the fed state and ensure the working stability of the microwave Doppler detection antenna.
[0111] In particular, the position description of the electrical feeding point 11 is a limitation on the electrical equivalent feeding position of the radiating element 10. The physical feeding implementation structure of the electrical feeding point 11 is diverse, and the corresponding circuit design of the microwave Doppler detection antenna is flexible and diverse and can adapt to different layout requirements.
[0112] Specifically, referring to the accompanying drawings of the present invention, FIG. 3A to FIG. 3D, the microwave Doppler detection antenna according to different variant embodiments of the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention is illustrated, wherein the radiating element 10 is equivalent to having a state of the electrical feeding point 11, and the radiating element 10 has at least one physical feeding connection point 111 corresponding to the access to the corresponding excitation signal, wherein on the radiating element 10, with the zero potential line as the boundary, on the same side of the zero potential line, when there is one feeding connection point 111, the electrical feeding point 11 is equivalently located at the feeding connection point 111, and when there are multiple feeding connection points 111, the two feeding connection points 111 based on the midline of the line connecting the two feeding connection points 111 connected to the excitation signal of the same phase passing through the physical center point of the radiating element 10 are equivalent to one feeding connection point 11 at the midpoint of the line connecting the two feeding connection points 111. 1, and the two feeding connection points 111 connected to the excitation signals of different phases pass through the physical center point of the radiating element 10, and the two feeding connection points 111 are equivalent to one feeding connection point 111 at the midpoint of the line connecting the two feeding connection points 111. The arrangement of the feeding connection points 111 is set to satisfy the equivalent of one feeding connection point 111, and the electrical feeding point 11 is equivalently located at this feeding connection point 111, that is, the electrical connection relationship and position description of the electrical feeding point 11 is a limitation on the electrical connection relationship and position arrangement of the entity's feeding connection point 111. The specific number and position arrangement of the feeding connection points 111 and the feeding structure are flexible and changeable, and the corresponding circuit design of the microwave Doppler detection antenna is flexible and diverse and can adapt to different layout requirements.
[0113] Specifically, the feeding connection point 111 corresponds to the state of the point feeding (probe feeding) structure, and the feeding connection point 111 is the point on the radiating element 10 to which the corresponding excitation signal is connected, wherein the feeding connection point 111 corresponds to the state of the microstrip feeding structure, and the radiating element 10 is connected to the corresponding excitation signal via a microstrip feeding line 12, and the feeding connection point 111 is the point on the radiating element 10 that is electrically connected to the microstrip feeding line 12, wherein the feeding connection point 111 corresponds to the state of the edge feeding structure, and the radiating element 10 is connected to the corresponding excitation signal through a side feed line 13, wherein the side feed line 13 is a microstrip line adjacent to and parallel to the straight side of the radiating element 10, and the feeding connection point 111 is the midpoint of the side feed line 13 set as a microstrip line. Therefore, the entity physical feeding structure corresponding to the feeding connection point 111 is diverse, and the entity physical feeding structure corresponding to the electrical feeding point 11 of the radiating element 10 is not restricted to be the same. Therefore, the circuit design of the corresponding microwave Doppler detection antenna is flexible and diverse and can adapt to different layout requirements.
[0114] It is worth mentioning that, based on the structural design that the edge of the radiation source substrate 30 is arranged to be aligned with the edge of the radiation element 10 within an error range of λ / 128, the feeding connection point 111 is preferably arranged in a point feeding (probe feeding) structure.
[0115] Continuing to refer to the accompanying drawings of the present invention Figure 2C As shown, in this embodiment of the present invention, the number of the feeding connection point 111 is one and is arranged in a point feeding (probe feeding) structure, wherein the microwave Doppler detection antenna further includes a reference ground substrate 40, wherein the reference ground 20 is carried on the reference ground substrate 40, and a structural relationship in which the radiation element 10, the radiation source substrate 30, the reference ground 20, and the reference ground substrate 40 are stacked in sequence is formed correspondingly, wherein the radiation source substrate 30 and the reference ground substrate 40 are penetrated at a position corresponding to the feeding connection point 111 of the radiation element 10 in a direction perpendicular to the radiation element 10 and each has a feeding hole 32, wherein a metal feeding component 321 is inserted into the feeding hole 32, wherein the feed source is arranged on a side of the reference ground substrate 40 opposite to a side carrying the reference ground 20, wherein the radiation element 10 is electrically coupled to the feed source at the electrical feeding point 11 of the radiation element 10 via the metal feeding component 321.
[0116] In particular, referring to the accompanying drawings of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, the microwave Doppler detection antenna according to a variant embodiment of the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention is illustrated, wherein in this variant embodiment of the present invention, the edge of the radiating element 10 located on the zero potential line is set inwardly in the direction toward the physical center point of the radiating element 10, so as to maintain the radiating element 10 with a suitable circumference to ensure the gain of the microwave Doppler detection antenna, while it is beneficial to further reduce the size of the microwave Doppler detection antenna by reducing the size of the radiating element 10 to adapt to the current miniaturization trend.
[0117] It is worth mentioning that when the two sides of the radiating element 10 located on the zero potential line are set inwardly in the direction toward the physical center point of the radiating element 10, the side lengths of the two sides of the radiating element 10 located on the zero potential line are relatively elongated, which is beneficial to strengthen the electric field formed by the self-coupling of the radiating element 10 due to the potential distribution in the polarization direction, thereby helping to suppress and balance the internal electric field 100 of the microwave Doppler detection antenna, thereby improving the radiation gain of the microwave Doppler detection antenna and suppressing the sidelobe radiation of the microwave Doppler detection antenna, thereby helping to improve the detection accuracy and anti-interference performance of the microwave Doppler detection antenna.
[0118] Preferably, in this variant embodiment of the present invention, in the direction of the zero potential line of the radiation element 10, the edge of the radiation source substrate 30 is set to be aligned with the edge of the radiation element 10 within an error range of λ / 128, and the two edges of the corresponding radiation source substrate 30 located on the zero potential line are set concavely in the direction toward the physical center point of the radiation element 10.
[0119] Further reference is made to the accompanying drawings of the present invention. Figure 5 As shown, the microwave Doppler detection antenna according to another variant embodiment of the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention is illustrated, wherein in this variant embodiment of the present invention, the radiating element 10 is circularly polarized and allowed to be polarized in a circularly polarized manner when fed, thereby improving the anti-attenuation characteristics and anti-rain and fog interference capabilities of the microwave Doppler detection antenna, which is conducive to meeting the high accuracy requirements for the detection of moving objects and adapting to outdoor detection scenarios.
[0120] Specifically, in this variant embodiment of the present invention, the radiating element 10 further has at least one degenerate mode separation unit 14, wherein the degenerate mode separation unit 14 is integrally formed on the radiating element 10 by hollowing out or cutting out the regular-shaped radiating element 10 in a corresponding shape, so as to generate two degenerate modes with orthogonal polarizations in the radiating element 10 when the radiating element 10 is fed, wherein the resonant frequencies of the two degenerate modes with orthogonal polarizations are separated to form a phase difference of 90°, so that the radiating element 10 is polarized in a circular polarization manner when it is fed.
[0121] It is worth mentioning that the formation of the degenerate mode is an electrical expression of the polarization principle of the circularly polarized radiation source 10 , and accordingly the circularly polarized radiation source 10 does not have a physical structure or mark corresponding to the degenerate mode.
[0122] Specifically, in this variant embodiment of the present invention, the radiation element 10 is set to a rectangle, wherein the radiation element 10 based on the rectangular shape has two degenerate mode separation units 14, wherein the two degenerate mode separation units 14 are set by cutting off two diagonal corners of the radiation element 10 based on the radiation element 10 being set to a rectangular shape.
[0123] Further reference is made to the accompanying drawings of the present invention. Figures 6 to 8D As shown, the microwave Doppler detection antenna according to different variant embodiments of the above-mentioned embodiments of the present invention is illustrated. On the basis that the radiating element 10 in the above-mentioned embodiments is equivalent to having one electrical feeding point 11, according to the equivalent principle of the aforementioned electrical feeding point 11, in these variant embodiments of the present invention, the radiating element 10 is further provided with at least one feeding connection point 111 to equivalently form another electrical feeding point 11 of the radiating element 10.
[0124] Specifically, corresponding to Figure 6 In the above embodiment, the radiating element 10 is equivalent to one electrical feeding point 11. According to the equivalent principle of the electrical feeding point 11 and the definition of the polarization direction and the zero potential line direction, in this variant embodiment of the present invention, the newly added electrical feeding point 11 is located on the zero potential line of the radiating element 10, that is, the two lines connecting the two electrical feeding points 11 and the physical center point of the radiating element 10 are vertical.
[0125] In particular, in this variant embodiment of the present invention, when the radiating element 10 is fed by receiving an excitation signal with the same phase at the two electrical feeding points 11, the corresponding feed source is set to output two excitation signals with the same phase in the powered state, such as outputting two excitation signals with the same phase through a corresponding power divider with one excitation signal, or directly outputting two excitation signals with the same phase, and the radiating element 10 can have an orthogonal polarization mode, which is beneficial to improving the anti-interference performance of the microwave Doppler detection antenna. When the radiating element 10 is fed by receiving an excitation signal with a phase difference of 90 degrees at the two electrical feeding points 11, the corresponding feed source is set to output two excitation signals with a phase difference of 90 degrees in the powered state, such as outputting two excitation signals with a phase difference of 90 degrees through a corresponding phase shifter (including but not limited to a microstrip line) with one excitation signal, or directly outputting two excitation signals with a phase difference of 90 degrees, and the radiating element 10 can be polarized in a circular polarization mode, which is beneficial to improving the anti-attenuation characteristics and anti-rain and fog interference capabilities of the microwave Doppler detection antenna.
[0126] Specifically, on the basis that the radiating element 10 in the above embodiment is equivalent to one electrical feeding point 11, according to the equivalent principle of the electrical feeding point 11 and the definition of the polarization direction and the zero potential line direction, in this variant embodiment of the present invention, the radiating element 10 is further provided with a feeding connection point 111 in a point feeding (probe feeding) structure, so as to form a newly added electrical feeding point 11 which is equivalent to the feeding connection point 111.
[0127] Corresponds to Figures 7 to 8DIn the above embodiments, the radiating element 10 is equivalent to one electrical feeding point 11. According to the equivalent principle of the electrical feeding point 11 and the definition of the polarization direction and the zero potential line direction, in these variant embodiments of the present invention, the two electrical feeding points 11 are located on both sides of the radiating element 10 bounded by the zero potential line.
