Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of mobile communication technology base station array antennas, and in particular to a multi-band common-aperture base station antenna. Background Art

[0002] At present, mobile communication technology is booming. The commercialization of the fifth generation mobile communication technology (5G) and the planning of the future 6G technology can allow people to experience the convenience brought by high-speed Internet applications anytime and anywhere, and realize the interconnection of all things. However, this does not mean that traditional 3G and 4G communications will no longer be carried out. On the contrary, the traditional standard system and the communication system with high-speed transmission function can be used in combination with each other. In the future, mobile communications will face the coexistence of 3G, 4G, 5G and even 6G for a long time. This means that the mobile communication network will face multi-band communication operations and the density of base stations will continue to increase, resulting in tight site space. At the same time, the operation and maintenance of base stations will be overwhelmed. Integrating antennas of multiple frequency bands into one, using an array to achieve multi-network coverage, and the antennas of each frequency band can work relatively independently, is a more ideal solution to alleviate the shortage of antenna resources, improve resource utilization and reduce costs. The development and application of dual-band or even multi-band base station arrays has become an inevitable trend of communication systems, and common-aperture antenna technology has emerged.

[0003] Taking the design of dual-band co-aperture antennas as an example, for dipole antennas, the antenna size and profile height are positively correlated with the working wavelength, which means that antennas working at low frequencies often have larger apertures and higher profiles. Placing low-frequency antennas between high-frequency antenna units can achieve the coexistence of antennas in multiple frequency bands without increasing the aperture size and profile height. However, the larger low-frequency antenna will inevitably block the high-frequency antenna in space, affecting the normal radiation of electromagnetic waves from the high-frequency antenna, causing distortion of the high-frequency antenna's radiation pattern, and affecting antenna performance. How to overcome the distortion of the antenna pattern caused by spatial occlusion is a hot issue that needs to be solved in the field of co-aperture antennas.

[0004] To solve this problem, the low-frequency antenna needs to be designed to be electromagnetically transparent to the high-frequency antenna, which can be achieved by introducing a frequency selective surface into the original low-frequency antenna radiation structure. In addition, the development of dual-frequency co-aperture antennas is no longer sufficient to meet the needs of multi-band communications, so there is an urgent need to develop and research multi-band co-aperture antenna arrays. Expanding to multi-frequency arrays requires low-frequency antennas to be electromagnetically transparent in multiple frequency bands, which places higher demands on the design of frequency selective surfaces. Therefore, it is necessary to design a low-frequency antenna with multi-band electromagnetic transparency and develop a multi-band co-aperture antenna array to support the coexistence of multi-band communications.

[0005] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the above background technology section is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of the present invention, and therefore may include information that does not constitute the prior art known to ordinary technicians in the field.

[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a multi-band co-aperture base station antenna, specifically a four-band dual-polarization co-aperture base station antenna, including a low-frequency antenna 1, an intermediate-frequency antenna 5, and a high dual-frequency antenna 9 coaxially placed on the upper surface of a metal floor 10. The low-frequency antenna 1 is a composite wave-transmitting structure composed of three layers of electromagnetic surfaces, including a low-frequency first electromagnetic surface 2, a low-frequency second electromagnetic surface 3, and a low-frequency third electromagnetic surface 4, wherein the low-frequency second electromagnetic surface 3 acts as a radiation structure of the antenna, and is connected to a feeding structure for feeding; the intermediate-frequency antenna 5 is a composite wave-transmitting structure composed of three layers of electromagnetic surfaces, including an intermediate-frequency first electromagnetic surface 6, an intermediate-frequency second electromagnetic surface 7, and an intermediate-frequency third electromagnetic surface 8, wherein the intermediate-frequency second electromagnetic surface 7 acts as a radiation structure of the antenna, and is connected to a feeding structure for feeding. The low-frequency antenna 1 is located at the top of the array; the intermediate-frequency antenna 5 is located below the low-frequency antenna 1; and the high dual-frequency antenna 9 is located below the intermediate-frequency antenna 5, that is, at the bottom of the entire array.

[0048] like Figure 3 As shown, the low-frequency antenna 1 is located at the top of the array, and includes a low-frequency first electromagnetic surface 2, a low-frequency second electromagnetic surface 3 and a low-frequency third electromagnetic surface 4, wherein the low-frequency first electromagnetic surface 2 includes a low-frequency first folded square ring metal structure 22 printed on the lower surface of a low-frequency first dielectric substrate 21; the low-frequency antenna second electromagnetic surface 3 includes a low-frequency second dielectric substrate 31 and a low-frequency first square ring metal structure 32 printed on the lower surface; the low-frequency third electromagnetic surface 4 includes a low-frequency third dielectric substrate 41 and a low-frequency second folded square ring metal structure 42 printed on the lower surface thereof. The low-frequency third electromagnetic surface 4 is exactly the same as the low-frequency first electromagnetic surface 2. The first dielectric substrate 21, the second dielectric substrate 31 and the third dielectric substrate 41 are separated by air layers with the same spacing.

[0049] like Figure 4 As shown, the metal pattern printed on the lower surface of the first dielectric substrate 21 of the low-frequency antenna is a low-frequency first folded square ring metal structure 22. The low-frequency first folded square ring metal structure 22 includes a coaxially nested low-frequency outer square ring strip 24, a low-frequency middle square ring strip 25 and a low-frequency inner square ring strip 26. The low-frequency first folded square ring metal structure 22 is arranged in a 3×3 manner to form a low-frequency first square ring array 23. Further, the low-frequency first square ring array 23 is arranged in a 2×2 manner to form a metal structure on the lower surface of the first dielectric substrate 21.

[0050] Furthermore, the first square ring array 23 is divided into a low-frequency first radiation square ring group 27 and a low-frequency second radiation square ring group 28 which are placed diagonally opposite to each other to achieve the radiation function of ±45° polarization.

[0051] like Figure 4 As shown, the metal pattern printed on the lower surface of the low-frequency second dielectric substrate 31 is a low-frequency first square ring metal structure 32, and the low-frequency first square ring metal structure 32 is arranged in a 3×3 manner to form a second square ring array 33; further, the second square ring array 33 is arranged in a 2×2 manner to form a metal structure on the lower surface of the low-frequency second dielectric substrate 31.

[0052] A low-frequency first Y-type feeder 11 and a low-frequency second Y-type feeder 12 are printed in the middle of the upper surface of the low-frequency second dielectric substrate 31.

When the composite wave-transmitting structure of the low-frequency antenna resonates, three wave-transmitting frequency bands covering the working frequency bands of the medium-frequency antenna and the high dual-frequency antenna are generated, and a second-order broadband resonance is formed, which expands the wave-transmitting bandwidth.

[0055] like Figure 5As shown, the intermediate frequency antenna 5 is located below the low frequency antenna 1, and includes the intermediate frequency antenna first electromagnetic surface 6, the intermediate frequency antenna second electromagnetic surface 7 and the intermediate frequency third electromagnetic surface 8; wherein the intermediate frequency antenna first electromagnetic surface 6 includes the intermediate frequency first dielectric substrate 61 and the intermediate frequency first folded square ring metal structure 62 printed on its lower surface; the intermediate frequency antenna second electromagnetic surface 7 includes the intermediate frequency second dielectric substrate 71 and the intermediate frequency first square ring metal structure 72 printed on its lower surface; the intermediate frequency third electromagnetic surface 8 includes the intermediate frequency third dielectric substrate 81 and the intermediate frequency second folded square ring metal structure 82 printed on its lower surface. The intermediate frequency third electromagnetic surface 8 is exactly the same as the intermediate frequency first electromagnetic surface 6.

The intermediate frequency first folded square ring metal structure 62 includes a coaxially nested intermediate frequency outer square ring strip 64 and an intermediate frequency inner square ring strip 65. The intermediate frequency first folded square ring metal structure 62 is arranged in a 2×2 manner to form an intermediate frequency first square ring array 63. Further, the intermediate frequency first square ring array 63 is arranged in a 2×2 manner to form a metal structure on the lower surface of the intermediate frequency first dielectric substrate 61.

[0057] Furthermore, the intermediate frequency first square ring array 63 is divided into an intermediate frequency first radiation square ring group 66 and an intermediate frequency second radiation square ring group 67 which are diagonally opposite to each other to achieve the radiation function of ±45° polarization.

[0058] like Figure 6 As shown, the metal pattern printed on the lower surface of the intermediate frequency second dielectric substrate 71 is the intermediate frequency first square ring metal structure 72. The intermediate frequency first square ring metal structure 72 is arranged in a 2×2 manner to form an intermediate frequency second square ring array 73. Further, the intermediate frequency second square ring array 73 is arranged in a 2×2 manner to form a metal structure on the lower surface of the intermediate frequency second dielectric substrate 71.

[0059] A first intermediate frequency Y-type feeder 15 and a second intermediate frequency Y-type feeder 16 that cross each other are printed in the middle position on the upper surface of the second intermediate frequency dielectric substrate 71. The first intermediate frequency Y-type feeder 15 transfers the energy input by the first intermediate frequency coaxial line 17 to the first intermediate frequency radiation square ring group 66 by coupling; the second intermediate frequency Y-type feeder 16 transfers the energy input by the second intermediate frequency coaxial line 18 to the second low frequency radiation square ring group 67 by coupling; one end of the first intermediate frequency coaxial line 17 passes through the second intermediate frequency dielectric substrate 61 to be connected to the first intermediate frequency Y-type feeder 15, and the other end passes through the third intermediate frequency dielectric substrate 81, the first high dual-frequency dielectric substrate 91, and the second high dual-frequency dielectric substrate 93 to be connected to the bottom of the metal floor 10; one end of the second intermediate frequency coaxial line 18 passes through the second intermediate frequency dielectric substrate 71 to be connected to the second intermediate frequency Y-type feeder 16, and the other end passes through the third intermediate frequency dielectric substrate 81, the first high dual-frequency dielectric substrate 91, and the second high dual-frequency dielectric substrate 93 to be connected to the bottom of the metal floor 10. The metal structures printed on the lower surfaces of the first dielectric substrate 61 and the third dielectric substrate 81 have almost no effect on radiation.

[0060] like Figure 6 As shown, the intermediate frequency third dielectric substrate 81 and the intermediate frequency second folded square ring metal structure 82 on its lower surface are completely identical to the intermediate frequency first dielectric substrate 61 and the intermediate frequency first folded square ring metal structure 62 on its lower surface.

[0061] Specifically, the first intermediate frequency dielectric substrate 61, the second intermediate frequency dielectric substrate 71 and the third intermediate frequency dielectric substrate 81 are all 0.5 mm thick F4BM220 plates, with a dielectric constant of 2.2 and a loss tangent of 0.001. The two adjacent layers of dielectric substrates are separated by an air layer with a spacing of 2.9 mm. When the composite wave-transmitting structure of the intermediate frequency antenna resonates, two wave-transmitting frequency bands covering the working frequency band of the high dual-frequency antenna are generated, and a second-order broadband resonance is formed at the same time, which expands the wave-transmitting bandwidth. The metal structure printed on the lower surface of the first intermediate frequency dielectric substrate 61 and the third intermediate frequency dielectric substrate 81 has almost no effect on the antenna radiation.

[0062] like Figure 7 As shown, the high dual-frequency antenna 9 is located below the intermediate frequency antenna 5, and includes a high dual-frequency first dielectric substrate 91 and a parasitic patch 921 printed on its upper surface, a high dual-frequency second dielectric substrate 93 and a radiation patch 941 printed on its lower surface; the high dual-frequency first dielectric substrate 91 is located above the high dual-frequency second dielectric substrate 93.

[0063] Specifically, the two dielectric substrates of the high-frequency antenna 9 are both 0.8 mm thick FR4 plates, with a dielectric constant of 4.4 and a loss tangent of 0.02. The two dielectric substrates are separated by an air layer with a spacing of 6.7 mm.

[0064] The upper surface of the high dual-frequency second dielectric substrate 93 is printed with a first L-shaped feed line group 95 and a second L-shaped feed line group 96 placed orthogonally. The two groups of feed lines excite the high dual-frequency antenna through differential feeding to achieve dual-polarization radiation; the first L-shaped feed line group 95 includes two high dual-frequency first L-shaped bent feeding structures 951 and a high dual-frequency second L-shaped bent feed line 952 of the same structure; the high dual-frequency first L-shaped bent feed line 951 and the high dual-frequency second L-shaped bent feed line 952 transfer the energy in the high dual-frequency first coaxial line 971 and the high dual-frequency second coaxial line 972 to the radiation patch 94 through coupling, wherein the input signals in the high dual-frequency first coaxial line 971 and the high dual-frequency second coaxial line 972 have the same amplitude and opposite phase. The structure of the high dual-frequency second L-shaped feed line group 96 is exactly the same as that of the high dual-frequency first L-shaped feed line group 95, including a high dual-frequency third L-shaped bent feed line 961 and a high dual-frequency fourth L-shaped bent feed line 962. The high dual-frequency third L-shaped bent feed line 961 and the high dual-frequency fourth L-shaped bent feed line 962 transfer the energy in the high dual-frequency third coaxial line 981 and the high dual-frequency fourth coaxial line 982 to the radiation patch 94 through coupling, wherein the amplitude of the input signal in the high dual-frequency third coaxial line 981 and the high dual-frequency fourth coaxial line 982 is the same, and the phase is opposite.

[0065] The four-band common-aperture base station antenna array proposed by the present invention does not carry any additional circuit elements. All electromagnetic structures are composed only of a dielectric substrate and metal etched on its surface. It has a simple structure and wide design freedom. The introduction of additional electromagnetic structures does not affect the original radiation performance and matching performance of the antenna on the basis of achieving directional pattern conformity. Finally, the array achieves stable radiation and matching in the four working frequency bands.

[0066] Fig. 9 (a) is a schematic diagram of electromagnetic wave radiation of a traditional common-aperture base station array antenna. The antennas of each frequency band are placed on a common reflective floor. The low-frequency antenna with a higher profile is located at the top of the array, followed by the medium-frequency antenna, and the high dual-frequency antenna is located at the bottom of the array. Due to spatial obstruction, the low-frequency antenna and the medium-frequency antenna will generate secondary radiation under the excitation of the high dual-frequency antenna, affecting the normal radiation of the high dual-frequency antenna and causing directional pattern distortion. Similarly, the low-frequency antenna will also generate secondary radiation under the excitation of the medium-frequency antenna, affecting the radiation performance of the medium-frequency antenna. The different antennas in the array affect each other and are difficult to operate in coordination.

[0067] Fig. 9(b) is a schematic diagram of electromagnetic wave radiation of the multi-band common aperture base station antenna array of the present invention, in which a multi-layer composite electromagnetic transparent structure is introduced into the low-frequency antenna and the medium-frequency antenna to realize a multi-band electromagnetic transparent design. Among them, the composite wave-transparent structure formed by the medium-frequency antenna has a wave-transparent window in two high-frequency bands, which suppresses the shielding of the high dual-frequency antenna and realizes the directional pattern preservation of the high dual-frequency antenna. The composite wave-transparent structure formed by the low-frequency antenna not only has a wave-transparent window in two high-frequency bands, but also realizes wave-transparent performance in the medium-frequency band, and at the same time realizes the directional pattern preservation of the high dual-frequency antenna and the medium-frequency antenna.
