Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of radio frequency antenna technology and relates to the field of multi-beam antenna technology, and specifically relates to a dual-polarization 1-bit antenna and a digital bit array based on electromagnetic metamaterials. Background Art

[0002] The new generation of wireless communication systems represented by 5G wireless communication and smart Internet of Things technology are profoundly changing people's daily lives and various production activities. Compared with the traditional 2G / 3G / 4G wireless communication system, the 5G communication system adopts a new high frequency band, large-scale MIMO architecture and multi-beam scanning technology, so the 5G communication system achieves high transmission rate, low latency and highly stable communication link. However, the traditional 2G / 3G / 4G communication system generally uses omnidirectional antennas or dual-polarized antennas with fixed beams, so it is difficult to meet the performance requirements of the 5G system for multi-beam radiation and dynamic scanning beam alignment. Since the multi-beam antenna has multiple switchable radiation beams or modes, it can selectively align different transmission or incoming wave directions, and can also perform spatial scanning coverage, which can enhance the channel's anti-interference ability and effectively improve the multipath effect. Therefore, multi-beam antenna technology is introduced into 5G base station applications. Digital bit arrays, as a new type of multi-beam antenna, not only have multiple different radiation beams, but also have low-cost characteristics. Compared with traditional phased arrays, digital bit arrays do not require expensive T / R components, so they have significant low-cost characteristics. At the same time, unlike the multi-beam continuous scanning of traditional phased arrays, digital bit arrays can not only achieve the switching of multiple complementary directional patterns, that is, spatial blind coverage, but also perform certain spatial multi-beam scanning.

[0003] At present, according to existing literature, digital bit arrays can be roughly divided into three categories: linear polarization digital 1-bit array, planar two-dimensional digital bit array, circular polarization reconfigurable digital 2-bit array, and leaky wave digital bit array. The linear polarization 1-bit array uses an electrically adjustable 1-bit antenna unit to achieve the switching of multiple complementary beams. It has a single polarization mode and is prone to polarization mismatch in complex electromagnetic channel environments. The planar two-dimensional digital bit array uses a reconfigurable 1-bit patch antenna as an array element for two-dimensional array. In order to achieve beam changes in the two-dimensional plane, a large number of switch bias circuits need to be arranged, so there is a problem of complex structure. At the same time, since the array element is still a linear polarization 1-bit patch antenna, it also has the disadvantage of a single polarization mode. The circularly polarized reconfigurable digital 2-bit array uses a 2-bit (phase switching step is 90°) reconfigurable patch antenna, which can be reconfigured into dual circular polarization (left-hand circular polarization and right-hand circular polarization) while achieving multi-beam switching. In order to achieve multi-beam switching and circular polarization reconfiguration, it is necessary to build a 2-bit phase switcher and a 90° phase shifter, which not only requires a large number of RF switches, but also requires multi-channel voltage control, resulting in high cost and complex structure. The leaky wave digital bit array uses a 2-bit phase shifter to scan the beam at a fixed frequency, but the leaky wave antenna usually has the disadvantages of weak beam control capability and large overall array size.

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0052] See also Figure 1-8 As shown, the specific embodiments provided by the present invention are as follows:

[0053] Embodiment 1:

[0054] A dual-polarization 1-bit antenna based on electromagnetic metamaterial, characterized by comprising:

[0066] Wherein, the metal floor is a double-sided copper-clad dielectric substrate structure.

[0067] At present, digital bit arrays can be roughly divided into three categories according to existing literature: linearly polarized digital 1-bit array, planar two-dimensional digital bit array, circularly polarized reconfigurable digital 2-bit array, and leaky wave digital bit array. The linearly polarized 1-bit array uses an electrically adjustable 1-bit antenna unit to achieve the switching of multiple complementary beams. It has a single polarization mode and is prone to polarization mismatch in complex electromagnetic channel environments. The planar two-dimensional digital bit array uses a reconfigurable 1-bit patch antenna as an array element for two-dimensional array arrangement. In order to achieve beam changes in a two-dimensional plane, a large number of switch bias circuits need to be arranged, so there is a problem of complex structure. At the same time, since the array element is still a linearly polarized 1-bit patch antenna, it also has the disadvantage of a single polarization mode. The circularly polarized reconfigurable digital 2-bit array uses a 2-bit (phase switching step is 90°) reconfigurable patch antenna, which can be reconfigured into dual circular polarization (left-hand circular polarization and right-hand circular polarization) while achieving multi-beam switching. In order to achieve multi-beam switching and circular polarization reconfiguration, it is necessary to build a 2-bit phase switcher and a 90° phase shifter. Therefore, not only a large number of RF switches are required, but also multi-channel voltage control, which leads to high cost and complex structure. The leaky wave digital bit array uses a 2-bit phase shifter to scan the beam at a fixed frequency, but the leaky wave antenna usually has the disadvantages of weak beam control capability and large overall array size. At present, other forms of digital bit arrays are difficult to achieve miniaturization, low cost and dual-polarization multi-beam switching capabilities, so the existing digital bit arrays are difficult to meet the communication needs of 5G base stations.

[0068] In this embodiment, if Figure 1-4 As shown, it is one of the preferred solutions of the present invention, which proposes a new type of high-isolation dual-polarization 1-bit radiation structure based on electromagnetic metamaterials. The cross-shaped ring metal structure 1 on the antenna is composed of two electromagnetic super-resonators 2 placed perpendicular to each other, which is the radiator of the antenna, thereby realizing the radiation or reception of electromagnetic signals. The cross-shaped dielectric substrate 10 realizes the physical support of the antenna and the electromagnetic super-resonator; the metal floor 11, which is composed of a dielectric substrate covered with copper on both sides, is used as the reference floor of the antenna, and also serves as a circulating current component of the electromagnetic super-resonator to realize the directional radiation of the antenna. It provides two polarization orthogonal radiation modes, which can effectively improve the anti-interference ability, etc.

[0069] The annular electromagnetic super-resonator structure and the cross-shaped electromagnetic metamaterial radiation structure proposed in the present invention have the characteristics of miniaturization, low loss and multi-polarization radiation, based on which linear polarization, dual polarization, circular polarization and tri-polarization radiators can be designed. The antenna of the present invention realizes a miniaturized, high-performance, high-isolation 1-bit dual-polarization antenna design without using an additional phase shifter, and can be applied to different digital bit array applications, such as linear array, planar array and circular array.

[0091] Each group of coupling slots is composed of two oppositely arranged coupling feeding structures on the left and right, which are used for 1-bit switching of the radiation wave phase.

[0092] In this embodiment, the coupling slot 6 is used to couple out the electric field component parallel to the polarization of the electromagnetic super-resonator to realize the excitation of the electromagnetic super-resonator; the U-shaped coupling feeding microstrip line 7 transmits the RF feeding signal to excite the electric field component above the coupling slot, and at the same time, two relatively placed U-shaped coupling feeding microstrip lines excite a pair of electric field components with opposite phases (i.e., 1-bit phase). When one of the U-shaped coupling feeding microstrip lines is excited, the selection of two phases of 0° or 180° can be realized. To simplify the control, the 0° phase is set to the "0" state and the 180° phase is set to the "1" state, i.e., 1-bit switching of the phase (0 / 1).
