[0007] The radiation device provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a radiation module, a first wire balun and a second wire balun, the first wire balun and the second wire balun are arranged below the radiation module, the radiation module includes a first radiation unit and a second radiation unit located in the +45° polarization direction, and a third radiation unit and a fourth radiation unit located in the -45° polarization direction, the first wire balun is configured to feed a first differential signal to the first radiation unit and the second radiation unit, and the second wire balun is configured to feed a second differential signal to the third radiation unit and the fourth radiation unit, the first wire balun and the second wire balun are arranged in the same plane, therefore, the balun structure composed of the first wire balun and the second wire balun occupies a small space, when the radiation device is applied to a multi-band array antenna, the spacing between the radiation device of the structure and the adjacent radiation device operating in a higher frequency band can be further reduced, thereby enabling more radiation devices to be integrated without increasing or increasing the size of the multi-band array antenna very little.

[0008] Optionally, the radiating module is provided with a first jack, and the upper ends of the first and second wire baluns are provided with first plugging protrusions, which are matingly plugged into the first jack.

Capacitive coupling effect, the lower end of the first reference ground wire is the reference ground connection end, and the upper end of the first reference ground wire is the first signal output end; the second reference ground wire is parallel to the second feeding wire segment, and a capacitive coupling effect can be generated between the second reference ground wire and the second feeding wire segment, the lower end of the second reference ground wire is the reference ground connection end, and the upper end of the second reference ground wire is the second signal output end; the first signal output end and the second signal output end of the first wire balun are electrically connected to the first radiation unit and the second radiation unit respectively, and the first signal output end and the second signal output end of the second wire balun are electrically connected to the third radiation unit and the fourth radiation unit respectively. In this way, when an excitation signal (such as a current signal) is input into the feeding wire from the signal input end, the excitation signal flows from the first feeding wire segment into the second feeding wire segment. The excitation signal in the first feeding wire segment and the excitation signal in the second feeding wire segment are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. The signals coupled between the first reference ground wire and the second reference ground wire are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, thereby outputting differential signals from the first signal output end and the second signal output end.

The first reference ground wire and the second reference ground wire are located in the same plane, and the plane in which the first reference ground wire and the second reference ground wire lie is a second plane. The first plane and the second plane are parallel and opposite to each other. In the first-wire balun and the second-wire balun of this structure, the feed wire, the first reference ground wire, and the second reference ground wire are dispersed in two parallel and opposite planes, which helps reduce the width of the first-wire balun and the second-wire balun, thereby further reducing the occupied space of the balun structure composed of the first-wire balun and the second-wire balun.

In this way, the relative positions of the feed wire, the first reference ground wire, and the second reference ground wire are fixed by the fixing member base and the first slot, the second slot, and the third slot provided on the fixing member base. Moreover, the connections between the fixing member base and the feed wire, between the fixing member base and the first reference ground wire, and between the fixing member base and the second reference ground wire are detachable. Therefore, when any one of the fixing member base, the feed wire, the first reference ground wire, and the second reference ground wire is damaged, the damaged component can be removed for repair or replacement.

[0020] Optionally, the radiating device further includes a substrate mechanically connected to the lower ends of the first and second wire baluns. The substrate includes a reference ground, a first feed terminal, and a second feed terminal, which are isolated from each other. The reference ground connection end of the first and second wire baluns are both electrically connected to the reference ground. The signal input end of the first wire balun is electrically connected to the first feed terminal, and the signal input end of the second wire balun is electrically connected to the second feed terminal. In this way, the substrate can support the first and second wire baluns, and the radiating module, and the first and second feed terminals are disposed on the substrate, facilitating access to the feed cable.

[0021] Optionally, a second socket is provided on the base, and a second plug-in protrusion is provided at the lower end of the first wire balun and the second wire balun.

The reference ground connection end, the upper end of the first reference ground wire 32 is the first signal output end; the second reference ground wire 33 is parallel to the second feeding wire segment 312, and a capacitive coupling effect can be generated between the second reference ground wire 33 and the second feeding wire segment 312.

The excitation signal in the first feeding wire segment 211 and the excitation signal in the second feeding wire segment 212 are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. The signals coupled in the first reference ground wire 22 and the second reference ground wire 23 are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, so that a differential signal is output from the first signal output end and the second signal output end of the first wire balun 2. Similarly, when an excitation signal (such as a current signal) is input to the feed wire 31 from the signal input terminal of the second wire balun 3, the excitation signal flows from the first feed wire segment 311 to the second feed wire segment 312. The excitation signal in the first feed wire segment 311 and the excitation signal in the second feed wire segment 312 are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. The signals coupled from the first reference ground wire 32 and the second reference ground wire 33 are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, thereby outputting a differential signal from the first signal output terminal and the second signal output terminal of the second wire balun 3. This structure of the first and second wire baluns is simple, and the symmetry of the directivity patterns is excellent.

The first pad 22a is welded to the third pad 13a, and the second pad 23a is welded to the fourth pad 13b. Similarly, the first signal output terminal and the second signal output terminal of the second wire balun 3 can be electrically connected to the third radiation unit 12c and the fourth radiation unit 12d respectively by wire connection, flexible circuit board connection, welding, etc., which are not specifically limited here. In some embodiments, as Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the first signal output terminal and the second signal output terminal of the second wire balun 3 are electrically connected to the third radiation unit 12c and the fourth radiation unit 12d respectively by welding. Specifically, as shown in FIG.

[0060] In the above embodiment, in order to ensure that the first wire balun 2 and the second wire balun 3 can accurately feed the differential signal to the radiation module 1, cross interference should be avoided between the electrical connection path between the third pad 13a and the first radiation unit 12a, the electrical connection path between the fourth pad 13b and the second radiation unit 12b, the electrical connection path between the seventh pad 13c and the third radiation unit 12c, and the electrical connection path between the eighth pad 13d and the fourth radiation unit 12d.

One end of the third connecting wire 14 is electrically connected to the fourth pad 13b, and the other end is electrically connected to the second radiation unit 12b. The lower surface of the third insulating substrate 11 is provided with a fourth connecting wire 15, as shown in FIG.

[0061] The feeding wire 21 of the first wire balun 2 has various structural forms, for example, Figure 8 As shown, the feeder wire 21 is an M-shaped structure, that is, the feeder wire 21 includes a first feeder wire segment 211, a third feeder wire segment 213, a fourth feeder wire segment 214 and a second feeder wire segment 212 connected in sequence. For example, Figure 6In the structure shown, the feed wire 21 is an n-type structure, that is, the feed wire 21 includes a first feed wire segment 211, a third feed wire segment 213, and a second feed wire segment 212 connected in sequence. As long as the feed wire 21 includes the first feed wire segment 211 and the second feed wire segment 212 with the excitation signals flowing in opposite directions, it will be sufficient. In some embodiments, as Figure 6 As shown, the feed wire 21 of the first wire balun 2 further includes a third feed wire segment 213, which extends horizontally. One end of the third feed wire segment 213 is electrically connected to the upper end of the first feed wire segment 211, and the other end of the third feed wire segment 213 is electrically connected to the upper end of the second feed wire segment 212. Thus, the feed wire 21 has a simple structure and uses less material.

[0062] The feeding wire 31 of the second wire balun 3 has various structural forms, for example, Figure 9 As shown, the feeder wire 31 is an M-shaped structure, that is, the feeder wire 31 includes a first feeder wire segment 311, a third feeder wire segment 313, a fourth feeder wire segment 314 and a second feeder wire segment 312 connected in sequence. For example, Figure 6 In the structure shown, the feed wire 31 is an n-type structure, that is, the feed wire 31 includes a first feed wire segment 311, a third feed wire segment 313, and a second feed wire segment 312 connected in sequence. As long as the feed wire 31 includes the first feed wire segment 311 and the second feed wire segment 312 with the excitation signals flowing in opposite directions, it will be sufficient. In some embodiments, as Figure 6 As shown, the feed wire 31 of the second wire balun 3 further includes a third feed wire segment 313, which extends horizontally. One end of the third feed wire segment 313 is electrically connected to the upper end of the first feed wire segment 311, and the other end of the third feed wire segment 313 is electrically connected to the upper end of the second feed wire segment 312. Thus, the feed wire 31 has a simple structure and uses less material.

[0063] The multiple wires included in the first wire balun 2 (including the feeding wire 21, the first reference ground wire 22 and the second reference ground wire 23) can be arranged in one plane, or arranged in two parallel and opposite planes, which is not specifically limited here. When the feeding wire 21, the first reference ground wire 22 and the second reference ground wire 23 included in the first wire balun 2 are arranged in one plane, the feeding wire 21, the first reference ground wire 22 and the second reference ground wire 23 of the first wire balun 2 are located in the same plane, and the structure of the first wire balun 2 is simple and easy to manufacture. When the feeding wire 21, the first reference ground wire 22 and the second reference ground wire 23 included in the first wire balun 2 are arranged in two parallel and opposite planes, optionally, as Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the first feeding wire segment 211 and the second feeding wire segment 212 of the first wire balun 2 are located in the same plane, and the plane in which the first feeding wire segment 211 and the second feeding wire segment 212 are located is the first plane. The first reference ground wire 22 and the second reference ground wire 23 of the first wire balun 2 are located in the same plane, and the plane in which the first reference ground wire 22 and the second reference ground wire 23 are located is the second plane. The first plane is parallel to and opposite to the second plane. With this structure of the first wire balun 2, the feeding wire 21, the first reference ground wire 22, and the second reference ground wire 23 of the first wire balun 2 are dispersedly arranged in two parallel and opposite planes, which is conducive to reducing the width of the first wire balun 2, thereby further reducing the occupied space of the first wire balun 2.

[0064] The multiple wires included in the second wire balun 3 (including the feeding wire 31, the first reference ground wire 32 and the second reference ground wire 33) can be arranged in one plane, or arranged in two parallel and opposite planes, which is not specifically limited here. When the feeding wire 31, the first reference ground wire 32 and the second reference ground wire 33 included in the second wire balun 3 are arranged in one plane, the feeding wire 31, the first reference ground wire 32 and the second reference ground wire 33 of the second wire balun 3 are located in the same plane, and the structure of this second wire balun 3 is simple and easy to manufacture. When the feeding wire 31, the first reference ground wire 32 and the second reference ground wire 33 included in the second wire balun 3 are arranged in two parallel and opposite planes, optionally, as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the first feeding wire segment 311 and the second feeding wire segment 312 of the second wire balun 3 are located in the same plane, and the plane in which the first feeding wire segment 311 and the second feeding wire segment 312 are located is the sixth plane. The first reference ground wire 32 and the second reference ground wire 33 of the second wire balun 3 are located in the same plane, and the plane in which the first reference ground wire 32 and the second reference ground wire 33 are located is the seventh plane. The sixth plane is parallel to and opposite to the seventh plane. With this structure of the second wire balun 3, the feeding wire 31, the first reference ground wire 32, and the second reference ground wire 33 of the second wire balun 3 are dispersedly arranged in two parallel and opposite planes, which is conducive to reducing the width of the second wire balun 3, thereby further reducing the occupied space of the second wire balun 3.

[0065] It should be noted that, in order to make the first wire balun 2 and the second wire balun 3 coplanar, the first plane is coplanar with the sixth plane, and the second plane is coplanar with the seventh plane; or, the first plane is coplanar with the seventh plane, and the second plane is coplanar with the sixth plane. In some embodiments, as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the first plane is coplanar with the sixth plane, and the second plane is coplanar with the seventh plane.

[0066] In the above embodiment 1, the fixing member has various structural forms, which specifically include the following two optional implementations:

[0067] A first optional implementation method, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the fixing member 24 of the first-wire balun 2 and the fixing member 34 of the second-wire balun 3 are both vertically arranged on a first insulating substrate. The feed wire 21, first reference ground wire 22, and second reference ground wire 23 of the first-wire balun 2, as well as the feed wire 31, first reference ground wire 32, and second reference ground wire 33 of the second-wire balun 3, are all metal layers disposed on the first insulating substrate. This structure of the fixing members 24 and 34 results in a relatively small size. Furthermore, the feed wire 21, first reference ground wire 22, and second reference ground wire 23 of the first-wire balun 2, as well as the feed wire 31, first reference ground wire 32, and second reference ground wire 33 of the second-wire balun 3, can be formed on the first insulating substrate using a mature printing process, making it easy to manufacture.

[0068] A second optional implementation method, such as Figure 13 、 Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, the fixing member 24 of the first wire balun 2 includes a fixing member base 241, and the fixing member base 241 is provided with a first card slot 242, a second card slot 243 and a third card slot 244. The feeding wire 21 is clamped in the first card slot 242, the first reference ground wire 22 is clamped in the second card slot 243, and the second reference ground wire 23 is clamped in the third card slot 244. In this way, the relative positions of the feed wire 21, the first reference ground wire 22, and the second reference ground wire 23 are fixed by the fixing base 241 and the first card slot 242, the second card slot 243, and the third card slot 244 provided on the fixing base 241, and the connections between the fixing base 241 and the feed wire 21, between the fixing base 241 and the first reference ground wire 22, and between the fixing base 241 and the second reference ground wire 23 are detachable. Therefore, when any one of the fixing base 241, the feed wire 21, the first reference ground wire 22, and the second reference ground wire 23 is damaged, the damaged part can be removed for repair or replacement. Therefore, the repair cost is low, the clamping operation is convenient, and the installation and disassembly efficiency is high. Figure 13 、 Figure 14 and Figure 15As shown, the fixing member 34 of the second wire balun 3 includes a fixing member base 341, and the fixing member base 341 is provided with a first card slot 342, a second card slot 343 and a third card slot 344. The feeding wire 31 is clamped in the first card slot 342, the first reference ground wire 32 is clamped in the second card slot 343, and the second reference ground wire 33 is clamped in the third card slot 344. In this way, the relative positions of the feed wire 31, the first reference ground wire 32, and the second reference ground wire 33 are fixed by the fixing member base 341 and the first clamping slot 342, the second clamping slot 343, and the third clamping slot 344 provided on the fixing member base 341, and the connections between the fixing member base 341 and the feed wire 31, between the fixing member base 341 and the first reference ground wire 32, and between the fixing member base 341 and the second reference ground wire 33 are detachable. Therefore, when any one of the fixing member base 341, the feed wire 31, the first reference ground wire 32, and the second reference ground wire 33 is damaged, the damaged component can be removed for repair or replacement. Therefore, the repair cost is low, the clamping operation is convenient, and the installation and disassembly efficiency is high.

[0069] In some embodiments, as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, or as Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, the fixing member 24 of the first wire balun 2 and the fixing member 34 of the second wire balun 3 are integrally formed, so that the number of components included in the radiation device can be reduced, the installation efficiency can be improved, and the production cost can be saved.

[0070] In order to demonstrate the advantages of the coplanar balun composed of the first wire balun 2 and the second wire balun 3 in the first embodiment, Figure 3 The radiation patterns of the radiation device shown are simulated when working at low frequency (690MHz), medium frequency (825MHz) and high frequency (960MHz) in the low frequency band (690MHz to 960MHz). The results are as follows Figure 12 As shown by Figure 12 It can be seen that Figure 3 The radiation pattern of the radiation device shown at the low, medium and high frequency points in the low frequency band is stable and consistent, without any abnormal changes, and is no different from the radiation pattern of the radiation device using a conventional non-coplanar balun. However, the coplanar balun used in this application takes up less space in structure.

[0071] Example 2, as Figure 16 and Figure 17As shown, the first wire balun 2′ includes a feeding wire 21′, a reference ground wire 22′ and a fixing member 23′, and the fixing member 23′ is used to fix the relative positions of the feeding wire 21′ and the reference ground wire 22′; the feeding wire 21′ extends in a vertical direction, the lower end of the feeding wire 21′ is a signal input end, and the upper end of the feeding wire 21′ is a first signal output end; the reference ground wire 22′ is parallel to the feeding wire 21′, and a capacitive coupling effect can be generated between the reference ground wire 22′ and the feeding wire 21′, the lower end of the reference ground wire 22′ is a reference ground connection end, and the upper end of the reference ground wire 22′ is a second signal output end; the second wire balun 3′ includes a feeding wire 31′, a reference ground wire 32′ and a fixing member 33′, and the fixing member 33′ is used to fix the relative positions of the feeding wire 21′ and the reference ground wire 22′; The relative positions of the feeding wire 31′ and the reference ground wire 32′ are fixed; the feeding wire 31′ extends in the vertical direction, the lower end of the feeding wire 31′ is the signal input end, and the upper end of the feeding wire 31′ is the first signal output end; the reference ground wire 32′ is parallel to the feeding wire 31′, and a capacitive coupling effect can be generated between the reference ground wire 32′ and the feeding wire 31′, the lower end of the reference ground wire 32′ is the reference ground connection end, and the upper end of the reference ground wire 32′ is the second signal output end; the first signal output end and the second signal output end of the first wire balun 2′ are electrically connected to the first radiation unit and the second radiation unit respectively, and the first signal output end and the second signal output end of the second wire balun 3′ are electrically connected to the third radiation unit and the fourth radiation unit respectively. Thus, when an excitation signal (e.g., a current signal) is input from the signal input end of the first wire balun 2' to the feed wire 21', a differential signal can be output from the first signal output end at the upper end of the feed wire 21', the reference ground wire 22' is coupled to the feed wire 21', and another differential signal is output from the second signal output end at the upper end of the reference ground wire 22'. Similarly, when an excitation signal (e.g., a current signal) is input from the signal input end of the second wire balun 3' to the feed wire 31', a differential signal can be output from the first signal output end at the upper end of the feed wire 31', the reference ground wire 32' is coupled to the feed wire 31', and another differential signal is output from the second signal output end at the upper end of the reference ground wire 32'. The first wire balun 2' and the second wire balun 3' have a simple structure and low cost.

[0072] In some embodiments, as Figure 18 or Figure 19As shown, the reference ground wire 22' of the first wire balun 2' includes a first reference ground wire unit 221' and a second reference ground wire unit 222' extending in the vertical direction. The upper end of the first reference ground wire unit 221' is electrically connected to the upper end of the second reference ground wire unit 222', and the lower end of the first reference ground wire unit 221' is electrically connected to the lower end of the second reference ground wire unit 222'. The first reference ground wire unit 221' and the second reference ground wire unit 222' are symmetrically arranged with respect to the feed wire 21'. Figure 18 or Figure 19 As shown, the reference ground conductor 32′ of the second conductor balun 3′ includes a first reference ground conductor unit 321′ and a second reference ground conductor unit 322′ extending in a vertical direction. The upper end of the first reference ground conductor unit 321′ is electrically connected to the upper end of the second reference ground conductor unit 322′, and the lower end of the first reference ground conductor unit 321′ is electrically connected to the lower end of the second reference ground conductor unit 322′. The first reference ground conductor unit 321′ and the second reference ground conductor unit 322′ are symmetrically arranged with respect to the feed conductor 31′. In this way, the symmetry of the directivity pattern can be increased.

[0073] In the above embodiment, the upper end of the first reference ground wire unit 221′ of the first wire balun 2′ can be electrically connected to the upper end of the second reference ground wire unit 222′ through a wire, a flexible circuit board or a metallized via, and the upper end of the first reference ground wire unit 321′ of the second wire balun 3′ can be electrically connected to the upper end of the second reference ground wire unit 322′ through a wire, a flexible circuit board or a metallized via, which is not specifically limited here.

In this way, the electrical connection between the lower end of the first reference ground wire unit 321′ and the lower end of the second reference ground wire unit 322′ of the first wire balun 3′ is realized through the second connecting wire 35′, the metallized via 36c′ and the metallized via 36d′.

[0078] In other embodiments, Figure 19As shown, the fixing member 23′ of the first wire balun 2′ includes a fifth insulating substrate 231′ and a sixth insulating substrate 232′ arranged vertically. The fifth insulating substrate 231′ and the sixth insulating substrate 232′ are stacked and relatively fixed. The feeding wire 21′ is arranged on the surface of the fifth insulating substrate 231′ close to the sixth insulating substrate 232′, or the feeding wire 21′ is arranged on the surface of the sixth insulating substrate 232′ close to the fifth insulating substrate 231′. The first reference ground wire unit 221′ is arranged on the surface of the fifth insulating substrate 231′ away from the sixth insulating substrate 232′, and the second reference ground wire unit 222′ is arranged on the surface of the sixth insulating substrate 232′ away from the fifth insulating substrate 231′. The lower end of the first reference ground wire unit 221′ is electrically connected to the lower end of the second reference ground wire unit 222′ via a metallized via 27c′ and a metallized via 27d′ arranged in the fifth insulating substrate 231′ and the sixth insulating substrate 232′. The fixing part 33′ of the second wire balun 3′ includes a fifth insulating substrate 331′ and a sixth insulating substrate 332′ arranged vertically. The fifth insulating substrate 331′ and the sixth insulating substrate 332′ are stacked and relatively fixed. The feeding wire 31′ is arranged on the surface of the fifth insulating substrate 331′ close to the sixth insulating substrate 332′, or the feeding wire 31′ is arranged on the surface of the sixth insulating substrate 332′ close to the fifth insulating substrate 331′. The first reference ground wire unit 321′ is arranged on the surface of the fifth insulating substrate 331′ away from the sixth insulating substrate 332′, and the second reference ground wire unit 322′ is arranged on the surface of the sixth insulating substrate 332′ away from the fifth insulating substrate 331′. The lower end of the first reference ground wire unit 321′ and the lower end of the second reference ground wire unit 322′ are electrically connected through the metallized via 37c′ and the metallized via 37d′ arranged in the fifth insulating substrate 331′ and the sixth insulating substrate 332′.

[0079] The multiple wires (including the feed wire 21′, the first reference ground wire unit 221′ and the second reference ground wire unit 222′) included in the first wire balun 2′ can be arranged in one plane or in three parallel and opposite planes, which is not specifically limited here. When the feed wire 21′, the first reference ground wire unit 221′ and the second reference ground wire unit 222′ included in the first wire balun 2′ are arranged in one plane, as shown in FIG. Figure 18As shown, the feed wire 21′, the first reference ground wire unit 221′, and the second reference ground wire unit 222′ of the first wire balun 2′ are all strip wires. The feed wire 21′, the first reference ground wire unit 221′, and the second reference ground wire unit 222′ are arranged in the same plane. The structure of this first wire balun 2′ is simple and easy to manufacture. When the feed wire 21′, the first reference ground wire unit 221′, and the second reference ground wire unit 222′ included in the first wire balun 2′ are arranged in three parallel and opposite planes, optionally, as shown in FIG. Figure 19 As shown, the feed conductor 21′, first reference ground conductor unit 221′, and second reference ground conductor unit 222′ of the first conductor balun 2′ are all strip conductors. The plane in which the feed conductor 21′ lies is the third plane, the plane in which the first reference ground conductor unit 221′ lies is the fourth plane, and the plane in which the second reference ground conductor unit 222′ lies is the fifth plane. The fourth and fifth planes are located on opposite sides of the third plane, and are both parallel to and opposite to the third plane. This structure of the first conductor balun 2′ disperses the feed conductor 21′, first reference ground conductor unit 221′, and second reference ground conductor unit 222′ of the first conductor balun 2′ in three planes, which helps reduce the width of the first conductor balun 2′, thereby further reducing the space occupied by the first conductor balun 2′.

[0080] The plurality of wires included in the second wire balun 3′ (including the feed wire 31′, the first reference ground wire unit 321′ and the second reference ground wire unit 322′) can be arranged in one plane or in three parallel and opposite planes, which is not specifically limited here. When the feed wire 31′, the first reference ground wire unit 321′ and the second reference ground wire unit 322′ included in the second wire balun 3′ are arranged in one plane, as shown in FIG. Figure 18 As shown, the feed wire 31′, the first reference ground wire unit 321′, and the second reference ground wire unit 322′ of the second wire balun 3′ are all strip wires. The feed wire 31′, the first reference ground wire unit 321′, and the second reference ground wire unit 322′ are arranged in the same plane. The structure of this second wire balun 3′ is simple and easy to manufacture. When the feed wire 31′, the first reference ground wire unit 321′, and the second reference ground wire unit 322′ included in the second wire balun 3′ are arranged in three parallel and opposite planes, it is optional, such as Figure 19As shown, the feed conductor 31′, first reference ground conductor unit 321′, and second reference ground conductor unit 322′ of the second conductor balun 3′ are all strip conductors. The feed conductor 31′ is located in the eighth plane, the first reference ground conductor unit 321′ is located in the ninth plane, and the second reference ground conductor unit 322′ is located in the tenth plane. The ninth and tenth planes are located on opposite sides of the eighth plane, and are both parallel to and opposite the eighth plane. This structure of the second conductor balun 3′ disperses the feed conductor 31′, first reference ground conductor unit 321′, and second reference ground conductor unit 322′ of the second conductor balun 3′ in three planes, which helps reduce the width of the second conductor balun 3′, thereby further reducing the space occupied by the second conductor balun 3′.

[0081] It should be noted that in order to make the first wire balun 2′ and the second wire balun 3′ coplanar, the third plane is coplanar with the eighth plane, the fourth plane is coplanar with the ninth plane, and the fifth plane is coplanar with the tenth plane; or, the third plane is coplanar with the eighth plane, the fourth plane is coplanar with the tenth plane, and the fifth plane is coplanar with the ninth plane.

[0082] In some embodiments, as Figure 18 or Figure 19 As shown, the fixing member 23 ′ of the first wire balun 2 ′ and the fixing member 33 ′ of the second wire balun 3 ′ are integrally formed, thereby reducing the number of components included in the radiation device, improving installation efficiency, and saving manufacturing costs.

[0083] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 As shown, the radiation device further includes a substrate 4, which is mechanically connected to the lower ends of the first wire balun 2 and the second wire balun 3, as shown in FIG. Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, substrate 4 includes a reference ground 42, a first feed terminal 43, and a second feed terminal 44, which are isolated from each other. The reference ground connection ends of first-wire balun 2 and second-wire balun 3 are both electrically connected to reference ground 42. The signal input end of first-wire balun 2 is electrically connected to first feed terminal 43, and the signal input end of second-wire balun 3 is electrically connected to second feed terminal 44. Thus, substrate 4 can support first-wire balun 2, second-wire balun 3, and radiation module 1, and first feed terminal 43 and second feed terminal 44 are disposed on substrate 4, facilitating access to feed cables.

[0084] In the above embodiment, the reference ground connection terminal of the first wire balun 2 and the reference ground connection terminal of the second wire balun 3 and the reference ground 42, the signal input terminal of the first wire balun 2 and the first feeding terminal 43, and the signal input terminal of the second wire balun 3 and the second feeding terminal 44 can be electrically connected by wire connection, flexible circuit board connection, welding, etc., which are not specifically limited here. In some embodiments, such as Figure 7 As shown, the reference ground connection end of the first wire balun 2 is provided with a ninth pad 22b, the reference ground connection end of the second wire balun 3 is provided with a tenth pad 32b, the signal input end of the first wire balun 2 is provided with an eleventh pad 21a, and the signal input end of the second wire balun 3 is provided with a twelfth pad 31a. Figure 11 As shown, a thirteenth pad 46c, a fourteenth pad 46d, a fifteenth pad 46a and a sixteenth pad 46b are provided on the substrate 4. The thirteenth pad 46c and the fourteenth pad 46d are both electrically connected to the reference ground, the fifteenth pad 46a is electrically connected to the first feeding terminal 43 through a metallized via, the sixteenth pad 46b is electrically connected to the second feeding terminal 44 through a metallized via, the ninth pad 22b is welded to the thirteenth pad 46c, the tenth pad 32b is welded to the fourteenth pad 46d, the eleventh pad 21a is welded to the fifteenth pad 46a, and the twelfth pad 31a is welded to the sixteenth pad 46b.

[0085] To facilitate welding operations, the thirteenth welding pad 46c, the fourteenth welding pad 46d, the fifteenth welding pad 46a and the sixteenth welding pad 46b are arranged on the same surface of the substrate 4. In this way, during welding, welding operations on the four welding pads can be performed without turning over the substrate 4.

[0086] The first wire balun 2 and the substrate 4, as well as the second wire balun 3 and the substrate 4, can be mechanically connected by plugging, threading or welding, which is not specifically limited here. Figure 10 As shown, the base 4 is provided with a second plug hole 45, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, the lower ends of the first wire balun 2 and the second wire balun 3 are provided with a second plug-in protrusion 6, and the second plug-in protrusion 6 is plugged into the second plug-in hole 45, thereby realizing the mechanical connection between the first wire balun 2 and the substrate 4, and between the second wire balun 3 and the substrate 4. In terms of plug-in operation, the installation efficiency is relatively high.

[0087] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 、 Figure 10 and Figure 11As shown, the base 4 further includes a horizontally disposed second insulating substrate 41, the reference ground 42 is a metal layer disposed on one of the upper and lower surfaces of the second insulating substrate 41, and the first feed terminal 43 and the second feed terminal 44 are metal layers disposed on the other of the upper and lower surfaces of the second insulating substrate 41. Thus, the first feed terminal 43, the second feed terminal 44, and the reference ground 42 are isolated by the second insulating substrate 41, and the reference ground 42, the first feed terminal 43, and the second feed terminal 44 can be formed on the second insulating substrate 41 using a mature printing process, making it easy to manufacture.

[0088] In other embodiments, Figure 13 、 Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, substrate 4 includes a first coaxial feed line 4a and a second coaxial feed line 4b. First coaxial feed line 4a is located below first conductor balun 2, and second coaxial feed line 4b is located below second conductor balun 3. The reference ground is the outer conductor of first coaxial feed line 4a and the outer conductor of second coaxial feed line 4b. The first feed terminal is the inner conductor of first coaxial feed line 4a, and the second feed terminal is the inner conductor of second coaxial feed line 4b. This structure is simple and easy to implement.

[0089] In some embodiments, as Figure 4 As shown, the radiation module 1 further includes a horizontally disposed third insulating substrate 11, and the first radiation element 12a, the second radiation element 12b, the third radiation element 12c, and the fourth radiation element 12d are formed as a metal layer disposed on the upper surface of the third insulating substrate 11. This structure of the radiation module 1 is compact, and the first radiation element 12a, the second radiation element 12b, the third radiation element 12c, and the fourth radiation element 12d can be formed on the third insulating substrate 11 using a mature printing process, making it easy to manufacture.

[0090] Second, as Figure 20 and Figure 21 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a multi-band array antenna, including a reflector 100 and a radiation device array arranged on the reflector 100, the radiation device array including a first radiation device 200 and a second radiation device 300 arranged adjacent to each other, the operating frequency band of the first radiation device 200 is higher than the operating frequency band of the second radiation device 300, and the second radiation device 300 is a radiation device as described in any of the above technical solutions.

[0091] The multi-band array antenna provided in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: Figure 20 and Figure 21As shown, since the multi-band array antenna includes a reflector 100 and a radiation device array arranged on the reflector 100, the radiation device array includes a first radiation device 200 and a second radiation device 300 arranged adjacent to each other, the operating frequency band of the first radiation device 200 is higher than the operating frequency band of the second radiation device 300, so the volume of the first radiation device 200 is smaller than the volume of the second radiation device 300, and the baluns of the first radiation device 200 and the second radiation device 300 are flush. Since the second radiation device 300 is a radiation device as described in any of the above technical solutions, the first wire balun and the second wire balun of the second radiation device 300 are coplanarly arranged, and the balun structure composed of the first wire balun and the second wire balun occupies a smaller space, which is conducive to reducing the distance between the first radiation device 200 and the second radiation device 300. Therefore, more radiation devices can be integrated without increasing or increasing the size of the multi-band array antenna.

[0092] In the description of this specification, specific features, structures, materials or characteristics may be combined in an appropriate manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.

[0093] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than to limit them. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
