AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing patch antennas are difficult to achieve good dual-polarization performance over a wide frequency range in phased array radar systems, and they also suffer from strong coupling issues.

Method used

A differential feeding method is adopted. By symmetrically setting horizontal and vertical feeding components and combining horizontal and vertical power dividers, radio frequency signals with equal amplitude and opposite phase are provided to achieve horizontal and vertical polarization. Impedance matching is achieved by using the back cavity, sleeve gap and top patch.

🎯Benefits of technology

It achieves low cross-polarization, good radio frequency signal transmission performance, high symmetry and polarization consistency, and enhances the antenna's isolation and matching performance, making it suitable for phased array radar systems.
