[0042] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0043] In one embodiment, a three-dimensional novel antenna radio frequency front-end device is provided, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes a novel antenna device 1 and a radio frequency transceiver 2; the novel antenna device 1 includes a substrate 11 and two or more novel dual-polarized Yagi antennas 12, each of which is arranged on the substrate 11, and the radio frequency transceiver 2 includes a filter 21 (used to filter out harmonic clutter and reduce interference), a circulator 22, a transmitter 23 and a receiver 24, each of which is connected to the filter 21 on the substrate 11, and the filter 21 is connected to the circulator 22 through an optical fiber, and the circulator 22 is respectively connected to the receiver 24 and the transmitter 23 through optical fibers; the number of the radio frequency transceiver 2 is two or more, and each of the radio frequency transceiver 2 is respectively connected to the corresponding novel dual-polarized Yagi antenna 12. Specifically, the new dual-polarized Yagi antenna 12 is vertically arranged on the substrate 11, and since the number of the new dual-polarized Yagi antenna 12 and the radio frequency transceiver 2 is two or more, there is a corresponding relationship when they are connected. For example, one radio frequency transceiver 2 can be connected to only one new dual-polarized Yagi antenna 12, or one radio frequency transceiver 2 can be connected to multiple new dual-polarized Yagi antennas 12 at the same time, or one new dual-polarized Yagi antenna 12 can be connected to multiple radio frequency transceiver devices 2 at the same time, which can facilitate the management of signal reception and transmission. Furthermore, the material of the substrate 11 is not unique, and it can be a metal plate or a plastic plate. In this embodiment, the substrate 11 is a metal substrate, and fixing parts (such as fixing bolts) are respectively arranged at the four corners of the substrate 11. The substrate 11 is fixed to the ground by the fixing parts, which improves the fixing reliability of the substrate 11. The frequency bands of each new dual-polarized Yagi antenna 12 can be the same or different. In this embodiment, the new dual-polarized Yagi antennas 12 of different frequency bands are cross-arranged on the substrate 11. Figure 3 As shown, the novel dual-polarized Yagi antenna 12 includes a band 1 antenna and a band 2 antenna, and the two novel dual-polarized Yagi antennas 12 of different frequency bands are cross-arranged. The specific structural dimensions of the novel dual-polarized Yagi antennas 12 of different frequency bands are also different, such as Figure 4The figure shows a staggered high-gain array diagram between new dual-polarized Yagi antennas 12 of different frequency bands. The antenna of frequency band 1 is a low-frequency antenna with a higher height, and the antenna of frequency band 2 is a high-frequency antenna with a lower height. It should be noted that, in one embodiment, the new dual-polarized Yagi antennas 12 of the same frequency band are connected to the same radio frequency transceiver 2. For example, there are two radio frequency transceiver devices 2, namely, radio frequency transceiver device ① and radio frequency transceiver device ②. The number of new dual-polarized Yagi antennas 12 of frequency band 1 is two, and the number of new dual-polarized Yagi antennas 12 of frequency band 2 is also two. Then, the two new dual-polarized Yagi antennas 12 of frequency band 1 are connected to radio frequency transceiver device ①, and the two new dual-polarized Yagi antennas 12 of frequency band 2 are connected to radio frequency transceiver device ②. The new dual-polarized Yagi antennas 12 of different frequency bands are placed crosswise, that is, the distance between the two new dual-polarized Yagi antennas 12 is enlarged, which indirectly increases the effective aperture area and improves the antenna gain.

[0044] For further information, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 , the specific structure of the novel dual-polarization Yagi antenna 12 is shown in FIG. The novel dual-polarization Yagi antenna 12 comprises a reflection dish 400, a dual-polarization director 110, a dual-polarization active vibrator 120, a dual-polarization reflector 130 and an antenna axial rod 140. The dual-polarization director 110, the dual-polarization active vibrator 120, the dual-polarization reflector 130 and the reflection dish 400 are sequentially arranged on the antenna axial rod 140; and the dual-polarization reflector 130 is arranged at the first end of the antenna axial rod 140, the dual-polarization director 110 is arranged at the second end of the antenna axial rod 140, the reflection dish 400 is spaced apart from the dual-polarization director 110 and is away from the first end of the antenna axial rod 140, and the plane where the reflection dish 400 is located is perpendicular to the antenna axial rod 140.

[0045] Among them, the setting method of the reflector 400 is not unique. For example, it can be fixedly set at the first end of the antenna axis rod 140 when it leaves the factory or is installed to keep the position fixed, so that the reflector 400 and the antenna axis rod 140 are structurally integrated to improve the working performance. It can also be detachably fixed to the first end of the antenna axis rod 140, and the reflector 400 can be installed when needed without being disassembled, which is convenient to use. When the reflector 400 is damaged and cannot be used, only the reflector 400 can be replaced, avoiding the overall replacement of the new dual-polarization Yagi antenna 12 and saving maintenance costs. The reflector 400 can be regarded as a parasitic antenna vibrator. The dual-polarization active vibrator 120 can induce a same-phase current on the reflector 400. The reflector 400 and the dual-polarization active vibrator 120 are in the same direction, which can improve the gain of the new dual-polarization Yagi antenna 12.

[0046] Further, in one embodiment, the reflector 400 is a circular disk, and the radius of the reflector 400 does not exceed the length of the dual-polarization reflector 130. The distance between the reflector 400 and the second end of the antenna axial rod 140 matches one-fourth of the wavelength of the dual-polarization active vibrator 120. In this case, the gain of the novel dual-polarization Yagi antenna 12 is relatively high. The shape, size and distance between the reflector 400 and the second end of the antenna axial rod 140 are not unique. In this embodiment, the reflector is a circular disk, and the dual-polarization active vibrator 120 can induce a stable in-phase current on the circular disk. The radius of the reflector 400 does not exceed the length of the dual-polarization reflector 130. Specifically, in other embodiments, the radius of the reflector 400 may be between 0.5 and 1 times the length of the dual-polarization reflector, and the circular disk is about one-fourth of the wavelength away from the dual-polarization director. Taking the simulation results of the new dual-polarization Yagi antenna 12 operating in the 1.7-1.9 GHz frequency band as an example, the radius of the reflector 400 is set to about 27.8 mm, and the distance from the dual-polarization director is 40 mm, and finally a high gain of up to 11.4 dB is achieved.

[0047] It should be noted that Figure 5 and Figure 6 Only the overall structure of the novel dual-polarized Yagi antenna 12 is shown. Figure 7-12 The specific structures of the dual-polarization director 110, the dual-polarization active oscillator 120 and the dual-polarization reflector 130 will be described in detail.

[0048] In one embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, the novel dual-polarization Yagi antenna 12 further includes a reflector 300, which is disposed on a side of the dual-polarization reflector 130 away from the second end. Further, in one embodiment, the dual-polarization reflector 130 is disposed on the reflector 300. The reflector 300 is a metal flat plate having a rectangular, circular, regular polygonal shape, etc., and is used to enhance reflection and improve the front-to-back ratio of the antenna.

[0049] Furthermore, in one embodiment, although not shown in the figure, the novel dual-polarized Yagi antenna 12 further includes an antenna cover, which is a cavity structure with an opening at one end and a closed end, and the open end is fixed on the reflector 300. The novel dual-polarized Yagi antenna 12 can be placed in the cavity structure of the antenna cover to protect the antenna components. Furthermore, in other embodiments, the antenna cover can be open at one end and a spherical lens structure at the other end, and the open end is fixed on the reflector 300. By making the other end of the antenna cover into a spherical lens structure, the waveform radiated by the antenna can be corrected and compensated, and the uneven spherical wave can be corrected to a uniform spherical wave, which plays a role in correcting and compensating the waveform of the antenna and improving the gain of the antenna.

[0050] Furthermore, the surface of the antenna cover is coated with a left-handed material, wherein the surface of the antenna cover refers to the inner surface of the antenna cover. The left-handed material is a material of an artificial periodic structure in which the dielectric constant and magnetic permeability are both negative, wherein the electric field component, magnetic field component and wave vector of the propagating electromagnetic wave satisfy the left-hand rule, and the phase velocity and group velocity are in opposite directions, and many peculiar physical and optical phenomena that do not exist in nature can be presented. It mainly has a negative refraction characteristic, and by coating the left-handed material on the antenna cover, it can play a role in energy convergence.

[0051] It should be noted that Figure 5 The coaxial feed line 500 is also shown in the figure, and the coaxial feed line 500 will be explained in detail later in this article. Figure 6 for Figure 5 The corresponding rear view, Figure 6 The new dual-polarized Yagi antenna 12 and Figure 5 The overall structure of the novel dual-polarized Yagi antenna 12 provided is the same, so no further description will be given here. Figure 2 Provide specific and detailed description.

[0052] In one embodiment, Figure 7 as well as Figure 8 As shown, the dual-polarization director 110, the dual-polarization active vibrator 120 and the dual-polarization reflector 130 are relatively independent and are sequentially arranged on the antenna axial rod (not shown). It should be noted that in the dual-polarization Yagi antenna, the number of the dual-polarization director 110 can be multiple, for example Figure 7 as well as Figure 8 Four dual-polarization directors 110 are shown in the figure, and the dual-polarization reflector 130 is the longest, the dual-polarization director 110 is slightly shorter than the dual-polarization reflector 130, and the dual-polarization active vibrator 120 is the shortest. For the convenience of description, the two ends (i.e., the first end and the second end) of the antenna axial rod are respectively referred to as the A end and the B end, wherein the A end represents the second end, the B end represents the first end, the dual-polarization director 110 is arranged at the A end, and the dual-polarization reflector 130 is arranged at the B end.

[0053] like Figure 7 as well as Figure 8As shown, the dual-polarization director 110 includes a first director and a second director arranged orthogonally, the first director and the second director are the same, and are composed of a plurality of metal parts arranged on the antenna axial rod (not shown), the metal parts here can be metal rods or metal strips, the metal parts are perpendicular to the antenna axial rod, and the foot of the vertical part coincides with the midpoint of the metal parts, so that the two ends of the metal parts are symmetrically arranged on the antenna axial rod. At the same time, the length relationship between the plurality of metal parts is: the lengths of the metal parts are different, and the length of each metal part is shorter than the metal part adjacent to it and close to the dual-polarization active vibrator, that is, along the direction from the B end to the A end, the length of the metal parts becomes shorter in sequence; or it can also be along the direction from the B end to the A end, the metal parts are divided into a plurality of groups, the lengths of the plurality of metal parts in each group are the same, but the length of each group of metal parts is shorter than the length of the group of metal parts adjacent to it and close to the B end. At the same time, when the first director and the second director are orthogonally combined into a dual-polarization director, the metal pieces with the same length also remain orthogonal and are in the same plane, that is, the metal pieces with the same length form a cross shape as shown in the figure and are arranged on the antenna axial rod.

[0054] The dual-polarization reflector 130 includes a first reflector and a second reflector arranged orthogonally. The first reflector is the same as the second reflector, and each is composed of a metal piece arranged on the antenna axial rod. The metal piece is perpendicular to the antenna axial rod, and the foot of the perpendicular coincides with the midpoint of the metal piece, so that the two ends of the metal piece are symmetrically arranged on the antenna axial rod, and the first reflector and the second reflector are in the same plane. The length of the metal piece of the dual-polarization reflector 130 is longer than the length of any metal piece of the dual-polarization director 110.

[0055] like Fig. 9As shown, the dual-polarization active vibrator 120 includes two identical single-polarization active vibrators arranged orthogonally, namely, the first active vibrator and the second active vibrator, which are respectively composed of two L-shaped metal pieces symmetrically arranged on both sides of the antenna axial rod, one arm of the L-shaped metal piece is a connecting arm 121, which is attached to the antenna axial rod, and the port 122 on the connecting arm 121 is connected to the corresponding metal piece of the dual-polarization reflector 130, that is, one L-shaped metal piece of the first active vibrator is connected to the metal piece on one side of the first reflector, and the other L-shaped metal piece of the first active vibrator is connected to the metal piece on the other side of the first reflector, and the second active vibrator is also connected. This is not repeated, and the length of the connecting arm 121 can be adjusted according to actual needs such as the wavelength of the signal received and transmitted by the antenna. The other arm of the L-shaped metal piece is a functional arm 123, and the sum of the lengths of the two functional arms of the active vibrator arranged on both sides of the antenna axial rod is greater than the length of any metal piece of the dual-polarization director 101, and less than the length of the metal piece of the dual-polarization reflector 130. The angle between the connecting arm 121 and the functional arm 123 of the L-shaped metal piece can be adjusted according to actual signal receiving and sending requirements. In one embodiment, the angle between the connecting arm 121 and the functional arm 123 of the L-shaped metal piece is 90°.

[0056] See also Fig.10 The relationship between the dual-polarization director 110, the dual-polarization active vibrator 120 and the dual-polarization reflector 130 also includes: the first active vibrator, the first reflector and the first director are in the same plane, the second active vibrator, the second reflector and the second director are in the same plane, and the view of the entire antenna from end A to end B is roughly a cross shape.

[0057] See also Fig.11 and Fig.12 In one embodiment, a feeding structure 200 is provided on both the first active oscillator and the second active oscillator of the dual-polarization active oscillator 130, including:

[0058] The metal bump 201, as a feeding point, is disposed on one of the functional arms 123a of the single-polarization active dipole for receiving feeding;

[0059] A coaxial line 202, a port at one end of which is connected to the metal bump 201, is used to transmit current to the active vibrator to drive the antenna to work;

[0060] The support member 203 is coated on the outside of the coaxial line 202 and is used to isolate the coaxial line 202 from the external environment. In one embodiment, the support member is made of polytetrafluoroethylene, which further plays an insulating role.

[0061] The metal shell 204 is disposed outside the support member 203 , and a portion of the metal shell 204 is embedded in another functional arm 123 b without the metal bump 201 , so as to ground the metal shell and form a potential difference between the coaxial line 202 and the metal shell 204 .

[0062] In one embodiment, the novel dual-polarized Yagi antenna 12 further includes a feed input component, which is connected to the feed structure on the first active element and the feed structure on the second active element. The feed input component is used to input feed to the dual-polarized reflector 130, the dual-polarized active element 120 and the dual-polarized director 110 in the novel dual-polarized Yagi antenna 12, so that the novel dual-polarized Yagi antenna 12 can receive feed and work normally.

[0063] Further, in one embodiment, the feed input assembly is disposed at the first end of the antenna axial rod 140. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the feed input assembly can also be disposed at the second end of the antenna axial rod 140.

[0064] Further, in one embodiment, reference may be made to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The feed input component includes a coaxial feed line 500, and the coaxial feed line 500 connects the feed structure on the first active vibrator and the feed structure on the second active vibrator, wherein the dual-polarization active vibrator 120 includes the first active vibrator and the second active vibrator. The coaxial feed line 500 can be a 50-ohm coaxial line, and correspondingly, the input impedance of the novel dual-polarization Yagi antenna 12 is 50 ohms. By using the coaxial feed line 500 to provide feeding to the feeding structure of the first active vibrator and the second active vibrator, there is no need to use an impedance transformer, thereby saving feeding costs.

[0065] In another embodiment, reference may be made to Fig.13 and Fig.14 , Fig.13 and Figure 5 The difference lies in the structure of the feed input component. Fig.13 In the embodiment, the feed input component includes a balun feed device 600, and the balun feed device 600 connects the feed structure on the first active dipole and the feed structure on the second active dipole. The dual-polarization active dipole 120 includes a first active dipole and a second active dipole. The balun feed device 600 is a balanced-unbalanced transformer, and balanced feeding of the antenna dipole can be achieved through the balun feed device 600.

[0066] In one embodiment, the antenna axial rod 140 is in the shape of a square rod. The antenna axial rod 140 is a metal support rod, and its shape can be a round rod, a square rod, a track, etc., and is used to carry various components of the antenna.

[0067] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the antenna axial rod 140 includes a first feed assembly plate, a second feed assembly plate, a third feed assembly plate and a fourth feed assembly plate, and the first feed assembly plate, the second feed assembly plate, the third feed assembly plate and the fourth feed assembly plate are enclosed to form a cavity, and a dielectric strip is arranged in the cavity. Among them, the material of the dielectric strip can be an inorganic ceramic material or an organic dielectric material, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the dielectric strip is equal to the cross-sectional area of ​​the cavity, so that the dielectric strip is conveniently fixed in the cavity and the working stability is improved. By arranging the dielectric strip in the cavity, the Hansen-Woodyard end-fire condition can be achieved to form a strong end-fire array. The dielectric constants between each layer of oscillators are different, forming a strong end-fire array, so as to achieve the purpose of improving the gain of the antenna itself. It can be understood that the dual-polarization reflector 130, dual-polarization active vibrator 120 and dual-polarization director 110 mentioned above are connected to the above-mentioned feed assembly plate, thereby being fixed on the antenna axial rod 140. For example, the dual-polarization reflector can be connected to the first feed assembly plate, the second feed assembly plate, the third feed assembly plate and the fourth feed assembly plate at the same time, or it can be connected only to the first feed assembly plate and the third feed assembly plate to be fixed on the antenna axial rod 140.

[0068] In one embodiment, Fig.15 As shown, the RF transceiver 2 also includes a power amplifier 25 and a low noise amplifier 26, the circulator 22 is connected to the low noise amplifier 26, and the low noise amplifier 26 is connected to the receiver 24; the circulator 22 is connected to the power amplifier 25, and the power amplifier 25 is connected to the transmitter 23. Specifically, the new antenna device 1 is connected to the filter 21, and the filter 21 is connected to the power amplifier 25 and the low noise amplifier 26 through the circulator 22, respectively, the power amplifier 25 is connected to the transmitter 23, and the low noise amplifier 26 is connected to the receiver 24, respectively forming a signal transmission channel and a signal reception channel, and the new antenna RF front-end device formed achieves the maximum transmission and reception gain, effectively improving the utilization efficiency of the space. And because the new antenna device 1 is a three-dimensional structure, the three-dimensional array formed, the original two-dimensional antenna is configured into a three-dimensional new antenna RF front-end device, which can achieve a single beam configuration with maximum gain.

[0069] In this embodiment, a power amplifier 25 and a low noise amplifier 26 are added to the signal transmission channel and the signal receiving channel respectively, the signal to be transmitted is power amplified to increase the transmission power, and the received signal is amplified for subsequent signal processing, thereby improving the communication reliability of the new antenna RF front-end device. In addition, each device in the RF transceiver 2 transmits signals through optical fiber, and the signal transmission speed is fast, the loss is small, and the anti-interference ability is strong, which can further improve the communication reliability of the system.

[0070] In addition, in one embodiment, the novel antenna RF front-end device further includes a control device, which is connected to the receiver 24 and the transmitter 23. Specifically, the control device may be an MCU (Micro Control Unit). The control device controls the signal reception and transmission of the novel antenna device 1, thereby improving the communication reliability of the antenna system.

[0071] The above-mentioned three-dimensional new antenna RF front-end device realizes the dual-polarization structure of two single-polarization antenna units by adopting a cross structure, thereby realizing a high-gain new dual-polarization Yagi antenna, which can reduce signal polarization loss and make the new antenna device have excellent gain in both horizontal and vertical directions. At the same time, by setting a reflector disk, the dual-polarization active vibrator can sense the in-phase current on the reflector disk, thereby effectively improving the gain of the new antenna device. Secondly, by setting the antenna array composed of the new dual-polarization Yagi antenna on the substrate, the new antenna device is designed as a three-dimensional array structure, so that the new antenna device can form a vertical plane beam, and finally connected with the corresponding RF transceiver, and the signal transmission and reception of the new antenna device is managed by the corresponding RF transceiver, thereby improving the overall gain of the antenna.
