Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to an antenna array, in particular to a broadband dual-polarization baffle antenna array. Background Art
[0002] Ku-band satellite communications enable high-throughput data transmission. In Ku-band satellite communication systems, independent orthogonal linear polarizations are typically used to establish stable uplinks and downlinks. However, long-distance applications require high-gain, high-efficiency antenna characteristics. Therefore, wideband, high-gain, and high-efficiency antenna arrays that can cover the entire Ku-band satellite communication spectrum have attracted widespread attention. All-metal antenna arrays using a waveguide model are an effective way to achieve high-gain, high-efficiency dual-polarization. However, most reported all-metal dual-polarization antenna arrays are unable to meet the bandwidth requirements for full Ku-band satellite communication coverage due to factors such as back cavities. For example, the paper (S. -G. Zhou, G. -L. Huang, T. -H. Chio, J. -J. Yang and G. Wei, "Design of a Wideband Dual-Polarization Full-Corporate Waveguide Feed Antenna Array," in IEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation, vol. 63, no. 11, pp. 4775-4782, Nov. 2015, doi: 10.1109 / TAP.2015.2479639.) discloses a dual-polarization antenna array.
