[0027] At present, the airborne Beidou antennas on the market that realize Beidou satellite navigation and short message communication functions are usually composed of two sets of antennas, that is, one set of antennas is used to realize Beidou satellite navigation, and the other set of antennas is used to realize short message communication. The two sets of antennas are used together to meet the Beidou satellite navigation and short message communication functions of the aircraft. However, the two sets of antennas are prone to mutual signal influence, resulting in weakened signal strength, and two sets of antennas mean that two carrying spaces are needed for antenna assembly, and two power supply systems and two communication systems are also required. If two sets of antennas are still used to realize Beidou satellite navigation and short message communication functions respectively, it is difficult to improve the utilization rate of the carrying space. Obviously, this does not meet the current trend of integration and integration required for electronic communication equipment.

[0042] The above-mentioned airborne Beidou antenna includes: a circuit board; a first antenna, including a first dielectric layer and a first radiating patch, the first dielectric layer is located on one side of the second antenna, the first radiating patch is located on the surface of the first dielectric layer away from the second antenna, and the first radiating patch is used to receive a first feed signal through a first antenna feed pin, so as to transmit a satellite positioning signal under the excitation of the first feed signal; the second antenna includes a second dielectric layer and a second radiating patch, the second dielectric layer is located on one side of the circuit board, the second radiating patch is located on the surface of the second dielectric layer away from the circuit board, and the second radiating patch is used to receive a second feed signal through a second antenna feed pin, so as to transmit a short message standard preset frequency signal under the excitation of the second feed signal; wherein the first antenna feed pin passes through the first dielectric layer and the second antenna and is welded on the circuit board, and the second antenna feed pin passes through the second dielectric layer and is welded on the circuit board. The airborne Beidou antenna provided in the embodiment of the present application realizes integration and high integration in structural design, and can simultaneously transmit satellite positioning signals and short message standard preset frequency signals in terms of function, which can greatly improve the utilization rate of the carrying space.
[0043] In an exemplary embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, there are multiple second antennas, and the multiple second antennas are stacked.
[0044] Among them, the preset frequency signal includes an S frequency signal and an L frequency signal; at least one second antenna 302 is used to receive the S frequency signal; at least another second antenna 304 is used to transmit the L frequency signal; the second dielectric layer 3022 of the second antenna 302 for receiving the S frequency signal is located on one side of the second radiation patch 3044 of the second antenna 304 for transmitting the L frequency signal.
[0045] S-frequency signal refers to a radio signal used for a specific purpose in the S-band. In the Beidou satellite navigation system, the S-frequency point usually refers to the frequency point used for short message communication services. This frequency point allows users to send and receive short message information via satellite. Specifically in the Beidou satellite navigation system, the frequency range of the S-frequency point is 2491.75MHz, and there is an adjustment range of ±8.16MHz to ensure the accurate transmission and reception of short message signals.
[0046] L-frequency signal refers to a radio signal used for a specific purpose in the L-band. In the Beidou satellite navigation system, the L-band includes multiple frequencies for different services, such as L1, L2, L5, etc. These frequencies are used to transmit navigation signals and provide positioning, navigation and time synchronization services. For example, the B1I frequency of the Beidou satellite navigation system is located in the L1 band, with a frequency of 1561.098MHz and a deviation of ±2.046MHz allowed; and the B1C frequency is also located in the L band, with a frequency of 1575.42MHz and a deviation of ±7.5MHz allowed.
[0047] Optionally, the number of the second antenna 30 may be two, and one second antenna (refer to Figure 2 302) is used to receive the S frequency signal, and the other second antenna (reference Figure 2 304) is used to transmit L frequency signal.
[0048] In this embodiment, among the plurality of second antennas arranged in a stacked manner, at least one second antenna is used to receive an S-frequency signal, and at least another second antenna is used to transmit an L-frequency signal, so as to achieve a high-precision short message communication function.
[0049] In an exemplary embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the above-mentioned first antenna feed needle 206 passes through multiple second antennas 30 and is soldered on the circuit board 10, the second antenna feed needle 3026 of the second antenna 302 for receiving S-frequency signals passes through the second antenna 304 for transmitting L-frequency signals and is soldered on the circuit board 10, and the second antenna feed needle 3046 of the second antenna 304 for transmitting L-frequency signals is soldered on the circuit board 10.
[0050] In this embodiment, the first antenna feed pin passes through multiple second antennas and is then welded on a circuit board. The second antenna feed pin of the second antenna for receiving the S-frequency signal passes through the second antenna for transmitting the L-frequency signal and is then welded on the circuit board. The second antenna feed pin of the second antenna for transmitting the L-frequency signal is welded on the circuit board. Thus, by physically separating the second antenna feed pin for receiving the S-frequency signal and the second antenna feed pin for transmitting the L-frequency signal, mutual interference between the S-frequency signal and the L-frequency signal can be reduced, thereby improving the signal processing quality and reliability of the airborne Beidou antenna. At the same time, the second antenna feed pin for transmitting the L-frequency signal is directly welded on the circuit board, providing the L-frequency signal with the shortest and most direct signal transmission path, thereby helping to reduce the attenuation and reflection of the L-frequency signal, thereby improving the transmission efficiency of the L-frequency signal.
[0051] In an exemplary embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the above-mentioned airborne Beidou antenna also includes:
[0052] The third antenna 40 includes a third dielectric layer 402 and a third radiation patch 404. The third dielectric layer 402 is located between the second antenna 30 and the circuit board 10. The third radiation patch 404 is located on a side surface of the third dielectric layer 402 away from the circuit board 10. The third radiation patch 404 is used to receive a third feed signal through a third antenna feed needle 406 to transmit a B2b frequency signal under the excitation of the third feed signal.
[0053] In another exemplary embodiment, when the airborne Beidou antenna also includes a third antenna feed pin 406, the above-mentioned first antenna feed pin 206 passes through multiple second antennas 30 and the third antenna 40 and is then welded to the circuit board 10, the second antenna feed pin 3026 of the second antenna 302 for receiving S-frequency signals passes through the second antenna 304 and the third antenna 40 for transmitting L-frequency signals and is then welded to the circuit board 10, the second antenna feed pin 3046 of the second antenna 304 for transmitting L-frequency signals passes through the third antenna 40 and is then welded to the circuit board 10, and the third antenna feed pin 406 is welded to the circuit board 10.
[0054] Optionally, the third radiation patch 404 is a metal layer on the surface of the third dielectric layer 402. Further optionally, when the third radiation patch 404 is a metal layer on the surface of the third dielectric layer 402, the third radiation patch 404 may be coated on the surface of the third dielectric layer 402, or the third radiation patch 404 may be aligned and nested on the surface of the third dielectric layer 402; similarly, when the third radiation patch 404 is a metal layer on the surface of the third dielectric layer 402, the third radiation patch 404 may be coated on the surface of the third dielectric layer 402, or the third radiation patch 404 may be aligned and nested on the surface of the third dielectric layer 402.
[0055] In an exemplary embodiment, the number of the first antenna feed needle 206 and the number of the second antenna feed needle are plural.
[0056] The phase difference between the phases of the first feed signals input to each first antenna feed pin 206 and the phase difference between the phases of the second feed signals of the second antenna feed pin 3026 of the second antenna 302 for receiving the S-frequency signal meet the first preset angle condition, so that the first antenna 20 and the second antenna 302 for receiving the S-frequency signal support right-hand circular polarization.
[0057] The phase difference between the second feed signals input to the second antenna feed pins 3046 of each second antenna 304 for transmitting the L-frequency signal satisfies the second preset angle condition, so that the second antenna 304 for transmitting the L-frequency signal supports left-hand circular polarization.
[0058] In another exemplary embodiment, when the above-mentioned airborne Beidou antenna also includes a third antenna 40 and the number of third antenna feed needles 406 is multiple, the phase difference between the phases of the third feed signals input to each third antenna feed needle 406 satisfies a second preset angle condition, so that the third antenna 40 supports right-hand circular polarization.
[0059] Among them, the first preset angle condition can be that the phase difference between the phase of the first feed signal input to each first antenna feed pin 206 and the phase difference between the phase of the second feed signal of the second antenna feed pin 3026 of the second antenna 302 for receiving the S frequency signal is a first preset angle, and the first preset angle can be 90°; the second preset angle condition can be that the phase difference between the phase of the second feed signal input to the second antenna feed pin 3046 of each second antenna 304 for transmitting the L frequency signal and the phase difference between the phase of the third feed signal input to each third antenna feed pin 406 is a second preset angle, and the second preset angle can be 90°.
[0060] Optionally, the phase angle of the first feed signal input to each first antenna feed pin 206 can be determined by the number of first antenna feed pins 206; similarly, the phase angle of the second feed signal input to the second antenna feed pin 3026 of the second antenna 302 for receiving the S-frequency signal can be determined by the number of second antenna feed pins 3026 of the second antenna 302 for receiving the S-frequency signal; the phase angle of the second feed signal input to the second antenna feed pin 3046 of the second antenna 304 for transmitting the L-frequency signal can be determined by the number of second antenna feed pins 3046 of the second antenna 304 for transmitting the L-frequency signal; the phase angle of the third feed signal input to the third antenna feed pin 406 can be determined by the number of third antenna feed pins 406.
[0061] Exemplarily, when the number of first antenna feed needles 206 is two and the first preset angle is 90°, the two first antenna feed needles 206 are respectively fed with phases of 0° and 90° to achieve right-hand circular polarization of the RNSS frequency through the phase shifting network on the circuit board 10; when the number of second antenna feed needles 3026 of the second antenna 302 for receiving S-frequency signals is two and the first preset angle is 90°, the two second antenna feed needles 3026 of the second antenna 302 for receiving S-frequency signals are respectively fed with phases of 0 degrees and 90 degrees to achieve right-hand circular polarization of the S-frequency through the phase shifting network on the circuit board 10.
[0062] Exemplarily, when the number of the second antenna feed needles 3046 of the second antenna 304 for transmitting the L-frequency signal is four and the second preset angle is 90°, the four second antenna feed needles 3046 of the second antenna 304 for transmitting the L-frequency signal are respectively fed with phases of 0°, 90°, 180° and 270° to achieve left-hand circular polarization of the L frequency through the phase shifting network on the circuit board 10; when the number of the third antenna feed needles 406 is four and the second preset angle is 90°, the four third antenna feed needles 406 are respectively fed with phases of 0°, 90°, 180° and 270° to achieve right-hand circular polarization of the B2b frequency through the phase shifting network on the circuit board 10.
[0063] In this embodiment, the airborne Beidou antenna realizes right-hand circular polarization at RNSS and S frequencies, and realizes left-hand circular polarization and right-hand circular polarization at L frequency and B2b frequency respectively by adopting a structure with different numbers of feed points on different antennas and combining the phase shift network on the PCB board. Specifically, the first antenna and the second antenna for receiving S frequency signals adopt a dual feed point structure, and the second antenna feed pin and the third antenna feed pin of the second antenna for transmitting L frequency signals adopt a four feed point structure, so that this specific design can improve the signal quality and communication reliability. At the same time, under the specific structure of multiple feed points, the airborne Beidou antenna has a wide coverage bandwidth and flexible frequency adaptability, and thus, the airborne Beidou antenna can also meet multiple communication standards in an integrated and highly integrated manner.
[0064] In an exemplary embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the first dielectric layer 202 is provided with a first central through hole 208 ; the diameter of the first central through hole 208 meets a first preset diameter condition to achieve impedance matching of the first antenna 20 .
[0065] The second dielectric layer is provided with a second central through hole.
[0066] Among them, Figure 4As shown, the diameter of the second central through hole 3028 on the second antenna 302 for receiving the S-frequency signal meets the second preset diameter condition, so that the impedance of the second antenna 302 for receiving the S-frequency signal is matched; Figure 5 As shown, a via-hole conductive structure 30410 is also provided on the second antenna 304 for transmitting the L-frequency signal. The diameter of the second center through hole 3048 on the second antenna 304 for transmitting the L-frequency signal meets the third preset diameter condition, and the diameter of the via-hole conductive structure 30410 meets the fourth preset diameter condition, so that the impedance of the second antenna 304 for transmitting the L-frequency signal is matched.
[0067] Optionally, the via conductive structure 30410 provided on the second antenna 304 for transmitting L-frequency signals may be a via metal body. Further, the via metal body may be 24 through hole rings, and the 24 through hole rings are evenly distributed with the second central through hole 3048 of the second antenna 304 for transmitting L-frequency signals as the center point.
[0068] In another exemplary embodiment, Figure 6 As shown, the third dielectric layer 402 is provided with a third central through hole 408 ; the diameter of the third central through hole 408 meets a third preset diameter condition, so that the impedance of the third antenna 40 is matched.
[0069] In this embodiment, the first antenna, the second antenna, and the third antenna are respectively matched with antenna impedance, which can improve the transmission efficiency and communication quality of the airborne Beidou antenna for signals, and enhance the radiation efficiency of the airborne Beidou antenna. At the same time, the antenna impedance matching can avoid the undesirable conditions such as equipment damage caused by impedance mismatch of the first antenna, the second antenna, and the third antenna, thereby improving the overall communication performance and adaptability of the airborne Beidou antenna to the communication environment.
[0070] In an exemplary embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, the second dielectric layer 3022 of the second antenna 302 for receiving the S-frequency signal is provided with a feed pin through hole for passing the first antenna feed pin 206 .
[0071] like Figure 5 As shown, the second dielectric layer 3042 of the second antenna 304 for transmitting L-frequency signals is provided with a feed pin through hole for passing the first antenna feed pin 206 and the second antenna feed pin 3026 of the second antenna 302 for receiving S-frequency signals.
[0072] In another exemplary embodiment, the third dielectric layer 402 of the third antenna 40 is provided with a feed pin through hole for the second antenna feed pin 3026 of the second antenna 302 for receiving the S-frequency signal through the first antenna feed pin 206 and the second antenna feed pin 3046 of the second antenna 304 for transmitting the L-frequency signal.
[0073] In an exemplary embodiment, when the number of the first antenna feed pins 206 is two, the number of the second antenna feed pins 3026 of the second antenna 302 for receiving the S-frequency signal is two, the number of the second antenna feed pins 3046 of the second antenna 304 for transmitting the L-frequency signal is four, and the number of the third antenna feed pins 406 is four, the second antenna 302 for receiving the S-frequency signal includes a second central through hole 3028 and two feed pin through holes for passing the two first antenna feed pins 206, that is, the second antenna 302 for receiving the S-frequency signal is provided with a total of three through holes; the second antenna 304 for transmitting the L-frequency signal includes a second central through hole 3048 and Two feed pin through holes for passing the two first antenna feed pins 206 and two feed pin through holes for passing the second antenna feed pins 3026 of the two second antennas 302 for receiving S-frequency signals, that is, the second antenna 304 for transmitting L-frequency signals is provided with a total of five through holes; the third antenna 40 includes a third central through hole 408 and two feed pin through holes for passing the two first antenna feed pins 206, two feed pin through holes for passing the second antenna feed pins 3026 of the two second antennas 302 for receiving S-frequency signals, and four feed pin through holes for passing the second antenna feed pins 3046 of the four second antennas 304 for transmitting L-frequency signals, that is, the third antenna 40 is provided with a total of nine through holes. It is easy to understand that since the two first antenna feed pins 206, the two second antenna feed pins 3026 of the second antennas 302 for receiving S-frequency signals, the four second antenna feed pins 3046 of the second antennas 304 for transmitting L-frequency signals, and the four third antenna feed pins 406 will eventually be connected to the circuit board 10, therefore, Figure 7 As shown, there are twelve through holes on the circuit board 10 for passing antenna feed pins.
[0074] In this embodiment, by setting specific feed pin through holes in different dielectric layers, different antenna feed pins can share or pass through the same dielectric layer, thereby achieving integration and high integration in structural design, which can greatly improve the utilization rate of the mounting space; at the same time, by setting specific feed pin through holes in different dielectric layers, different antenna feed pins are provided with the shortest and most direct signal transmission path, which helps to reduce the attenuation and reflection of signals of different frequencies, thereby improving the transmission efficiency of signals of different frequencies.
[0075] In an exemplary embodiment, the first dielectric layer 202 and the second dielectric layer are both made of high-frequency board materials, and the first radiation patch 204 and the second radiation patch are both made of metal materials.
[0076] In another exemplary embodiment, the third dielectric layer 402 is made of a high-frequency board material, and the third radiation patch 404 is made of a metal material.
[0077] Among them, the high-frequency board material will not cause significant signal attenuation or distortion when working at a higher frequency. The high-frequency board material is usually required to have a low dielectric constant, a low dielectric loss factor, good mechanical properties and stable thermal properties. Optionally, the high-frequency board material constituting the first dielectric layer 202, the second dielectric layer and the third dielectric layer 402 can be polytetrafluoroethylene, epoxy resin glass fiber reinforced material, polyimide or other board materials.
[0078] The metal material needs to have a high electrical conductivity to ensure that the satellite positioning signal and the short message standard preset frequency signal can be effectively transmitted. The metal material constituting the first radiation patch 204, the second radiation patch and the third radiation patch 404 can be a single metal such as aluminum, copper, silver, or a multi-layer metal layer composed of multiple metal single substances.
[0079] In this embodiment, the first dielectric layer, the second dielectric layer and the third dielectric layer are all composed of high-frequency board materials, and the first radiation patch, the second radiation patch and the third radiation patch are all composed of metal materials. Therefore, the signal fidelity of the airborne Beidou antenna is higher and the conductivity is higher. Furthermore, the airborne Beidou antenna can accurately transmit satellite positioning signals and short message format preset frequency signals.
[0080] In an exemplary embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the above-mentioned airborne Beidou antenna also includes:
[0081] At least one first tuning branch 210 is located in the first antenna 20 , connected to the first radiation patch 204 , and symmetrically arranged about the center point of the first antenna 20 ; the first tuning branch 210 is used to adjust the resonant frequency of the first radiation patch 204 .
[0082] At least one second tuning branch is located in the second antenna 30, connected to the second radiation patch, and symmetrically arranged about the center point of the second antenna 30; the second tuning branch is used to adjust the resonant frequency of the second radiation patch.
[0083] In another exemplary embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, in the case where the above-mentioned airborne Beidou antenna further includes a third antenna 40, the above-mentioned airborne Beidou antenna further includes:
[0084] At least one third tuning branch 410 is located in the third antenna 40 , connected to the third radiation patch 404 , and symmetrically arranged about the center point of the third antenna 40 ; the third tuning branch 410 is used to adjust the resonant frequency of the third radiation patch 404 .
[0085] Among them, Figure 5 As shown, in the case where the second antenna 30 includes a second antenna 302 for receiving S-frequency signals and a second antenna 304 for transmitting L-frequency signals, the second antenna 302 for receiving S-frequency signals includes at least one second tuning branch 30210 connected to its second radiation patch 3024 and the second antenna 304 for transmitting L-frequency signals each includes at least one second tuning branch 30412 connected to its second radiation patch 3044.
[0086] Optionally, when the first radiation patch 204, the second radiation patch and the third radiation patch 304 are circular, at least one first tuning branch 210, at least one second tuning branch and at least one third tuning branch 410 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the circular radiation patch.
[0087] Optionally, the number of the first tuning branch 210 , the second tuning branch and the third tuning branch 410 may be the same. For example, the number of the first tuning branch 210 , the second tuning branch and the third tuning branch 410 may all be four.
[0088] Specifically, the first tuning branch 210 is used to provide trimming space to adjust the resonant frequency of the first radiation patch 204. It can be understood that the first tuning branch is an additional radiation patch other than the first radiation patch 204 of the first antenna 20. Therefore, when the airborne Beidou antenna is put into actual use, the first tuning branch 210 can be trimmed to adjust the resonant frequency according to the actual resonant frequency of the airborne Beidou antenna; the second tuning branch and the third tuning branch 410 are similarly understood to be the second tuning branch being an additional radiation patch other than the second radiation patch of the second antenna 30, and the third tuning branch 410 being an additional radiation patch other than the third radiation patch 404 of the third antenna 40. Therefore, the second tuning branch is used to provide trimming space to adjust the resonant frequency of the second radiation patch, and the third tuning branch 410 is used to provide trimming space to adjust the resonant frequency of the third radiation patch 404.
[0089] In this embodiment, at least one first tuning branch, at least one second tuning branch and at least one third tuning branch are symmetrically arranged about the center point of the first antenna, the center point of the second antenna and the center point of the third antenna, respectively, thereby ensuring the symmetry of the overall structure of the airborne Beidou antenna to improve the phase center stability; at the same time, at least one first tuning branch, at least one second tuning branch and at least one third tuning branch also provide adjustment space for the resonant frequency adjustment of the airborne Beidou antenna, thereby improving the overall communication performance of the airborne Beidou antenna and its adaptability to the communication environment.
[0090] In an exemplary embodiment, a first feed source and a second feed source are provided on a side of the circuit board 10 away from the second antenna 30 , wherein the first feed source is used to provide a first feed signal to the first radiation patch 204 , and the second feed source is used to provide a second feed signal to the second radiation patch.
[0091] In another exemplary embodiment, when the airborne Beidou antenna also includes a third antenna 40, a first feed source, a second feed source and a third feed source are provided on the side of the circuit board 10 away from the third antenna 40, the first feed source is used to provide a first feed signal to the first radiation patch 204, the second feed source is used to provide a second feed signal to the second radiation patch, and the third feed source is used to provide a third feed signal to the third radiation patch 404.
[0092] Among them, the first feed source corresponds to the satellite positioning signal, the second feed source corresponds to the short message standard preset frequency signal, and the third feed source corresponds to the B2b frequency signal. The first feed source can be a transmitter of the satellite positioning signal, the second feed source can be a transceiver of the short message standard preset frequency signal, and the third feed source can be a receiver of the B2b frequency signal.
[0093] Specifically, after the first feed source provides the first feed signal to the first radiation patch 204, the first radiation patch 204 receives the first feed signal through the first antenna feed needle 206, so as to transmit the satellite positioning signal under the excitation of the first feed signal; similarly, after the second feed source provides the second feed signal to the second radiation patch, the second radiation patch receives the second feed signal through the second antenna feed needle, so as to transmit the preset frequency signal of the short message standard under the excitation of the second feed signal; after the third feed source provides the third feed signal to the third radiation patch 404, the third radiation patch 404 receives the third feed signal through the third antenna feed needle 406, so as to transmit the B2b frequency signal under the excitation of the third feed signal.
[0094] In this embodiment, a first feed and a second feed are provided on a side of the circuit board away from the second antenna, the first feed is used to provide a first feed signal to the first radiation patch, and the second feed is used to provide a second feed signal to the second radiation patch, so that the airborne Beidou antenna can realize the transmission of satellite positioning signals and the transmission of short message standard preset frequency signals based on the first radiation patch and the second radiation patch respectively; when the airborne Beidou antenna also includes a third antenna, a third feed is provided on a side of the circuit board away from the third antenna in addition to the first feed and the second feed, and the third feed is used to provide a third feed signal to the third radiation patch, so that the signal strength of the satellite positioning signal and the short message standard preset frequency signal of the airborne Beidou antenna can be improved. Furthermore, the integration and high integration of the airborne Beidou antenna are realized.
[0095] In an exemplary embodiment, the first antenna 20, the second antenna 302 for receiving S-frequency signals, the second antenna 304 for transmitting L-frequency signals, and the third antenna 40 are all circular microstrip antennas.
[0096] It can be understood that the above-mentioned airborne Beidou antenna can also adopt other forms, not limited to the forms mentioned in the above embodiments, as long as it can achieve the function of simultaneously transmitting satellite positioning signals and short message standard preset frequency signals.
[0097] The above-mentioned airborne Beidou antenna can be applied to devices such as drones, ships, vehicles, etc. that have the need to simultaneously transmit satellite positioning signals and short message format preset frequency signals.
