[0030] This specific embodiment is a full-wave radiation unit, and its structural schematic diagram is as follows: Figures 1-6 As shown, the full-wave radiation unit includes a PCB radiation board 1, which includes a PCB dielectric substrate 2, a folded oscillator 3 and a microstrip line 4 disposed on the PCB dielectric substrate 2. The PCB dielectric substrate 2 is a single-layer PCB and the folded oscillator 3 and the microstrip line 4 are located on the same plane. Adjacent microstrip lines 4 and adjacent folded oscillators 3 are cross-coupled.

[0031] The coupling feed plate 6 and the vibrator base 7, the PCB radiating board 1 and the vibrator base 7 are respectively installed at the upper and lower ends of the coupling feed plate 6;

[0032] Feed line 5 is set on coupling feed plate 6. PCB radiating board 1 and vibrator base 7 are connected to each other through feed line 5 to form a microstrip transmission line for feeding PCB radiating board 1.

[0033] By using FRA4 single-sided copper-clad board for the radiating surface of PCB radiating board 1 and the oscillator base 7, not only is the production cost lower, but the original double-sided copper-clad coupling point is changed to cross coupling, which can also effectively improve unit isolation and high gain, while ensuring PIM index requirements. It has advantages such as small horizontal beamwidth fluctuation and ultra-wide bandwidth characteristics, and improves self-isolation and system isolation between two columns. The isolation is increased from the original 26dB to 28dB, the debugging difficulty is significantly improved, and the gain is increased by 0.8-1d compared with the suppressed oscillator.

[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, the PCB substrate 2 is square with chamfered corners 201 at the four corners. There are four sets of folded oscillators 3. The four sets of folded oscillators 3 are fixed at the four corners of the PCB substrate 2 away from the coupling feed plate 6, forming a grid-shaped structure. The folded oscillators 3 are located inside the microstrip line 4. The folded oscillators 3 include two oscillator arms 301 and two oscillators 302. The parts of the two oscillator arms 301 near the middle of the PCB substrate 2 are connected to each other and form a fixing part 303. The parts of the two oscillator arms 301 away from the middle of the PCB substrate 2 are separated from each other and then approached and fixedly connected to the oscillator 302.

[0035] The PCB dielectric substrate 2 is equipped with circuits that participate in the radiation of electromagnetic waves. The PCB dielectric substrate 2 uses FRA4 single-sided copper-clad board to reduce costs. By adjusting the coupling degree and impedance matching between the microstrip line 4 and the folded oscillator 3, the standing wave and isolation performance of the radiation unit can be improved.

[0036] In this embodiment, the two oscillator arms 301 and the two oscillators 302 are symmetrically arranged along the diagonal of the PCB dielectric substrate 2, making the overall appearance more aesthetically pleasing.

[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, there are four groups of microstrip lines 4. The four groups of microstrip lines 4 are arranged around the center point of the PCB dielectric substrate 2 and are uniformly and symmetrically arranged on the four sides of the PCB dielectric substrate 2 along the horizontal and vertical directions. The microstrip line 4 includes a feed line 401 and a first coupling line 402 and a second coupling line 403 arranged at both ends of the feed line 401. The second coupling line 403 extends into the interior of the adjacent first coupling line 402 and forms an S-shaped gap 404. The S-shaped gap 404 is similar in shape to an S-shape, but is not limited in specific shape and can be any shape that increases the coupling effect.

[0038] This design allows the vibrator arm 301 and vibrator 302 to form a circuit for radiating electromagnetic waves through the first coupling line 402, the second coupling line 403 and the feed line 401, and to form a larger equivalent area for radiating electromagnetic waves through the coupling of the S-shaped gap 404, thereby improving the gain index of the antenna radiating element.

[0039] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the first coupling line 402 includes a first connecting portion 4022 and a first extension portion 4021 connected to one side of the vibrator 302. A groove 4023 is formed between the first extension portion 4021, the first connecting portion 4022, and the vibrator 302. The second coupling line 403 includes a second connecting portion 4032 and a second extension portion 4031 connected to the other side of the vibrator 302. The other end of the second extension portion 4031 is located inside the groove 4023.

[0040] Specifically, the feed line 401 is connected to the first coupling line 402 and the second coupling line 403 at both ends by an arc transition. The first connecting part 4022 and the second connecting part 4032 are both smaller than the width of the vibrator 302. The S-shaped gap 404 is formed by the first connecting part 4022, the first extension part 4021, the second connecting part 4032 and the second extension part 4031 surrounding it.

[0041] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, nylon rivet fixing holes 701 are provided at all four corners of the oscillator base 7, and the oscillator base 7 is made of FRA4 single-sided copper-clad board.

[0042] This reduces the cost of the oscillator base 7, and the oscillator base 7 is installed and fixed with nylon rivets, making installation simple and quick.

[0043] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the coupling feed piece 6 includes a first feed piece 601 and a second feed piece 602. The bottom ends of the first feed piece 601 and the second feed piece 602 are provided with feed points 603 on the feed line 5.

[0044] The first feed piece 601 and the second feed piece 602 are cross-connected together. The feed line 5 includes a positive polarization feed line and a negative polarization feed line, which are respectively set on the first feed piece 601 and the second feed piece 602.

[0045] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the top ends of the first feed plate 601 and the second feed plate 602 are both fixedly connected to the first fixing block 604, and the bottom ends of the first feed plate 601 and the second feed plate 602 are both fixedly connected to the second fixing block 605. A first through hole 202 is provided on the PCB dielectric substrate 2 and located at the fixing part 303. The first fixing block 604 is located in the first through hole 202 and fixedly connected to the PCB dielectric substrate 2. A second through hole 702 is provided on the vibrator base 7, and the second fixing block 605 is located in the second through hole 702 and fixedly connected to the vibrator base 7.

[0046] When the PCB radiating board 1 is connected to the coupling feed plate 6, the first fixing block 604 at the top of the first feed plate 601 and the second feed plate 602 is inserted into the first through hole 202, and the second fixing block 605 at the bottom of the first feed plate 601 and the second feed plate 602 is inserted into the second through hole 702, thereby making the assembly convenient, consistent and easy to produce.

[0047] The technical solution provided by this utility model uses FRA4 single-sided copper-clad board for the radiating surface of the PCB radiating board 1 and the vibrator base 7. This not only reduces production costs but also changes the original double-sided copper-clad coupling point to cross coupling, which can effectively improve unit isolation and high gain while ensuring PIM index requirements. It has advantages such as small horizontal beamwidth fluctuation and ultra-wide bandwidth characteristics, and improves self-isolation and system isolation between two columns. The isolation is increased from the original 26dB to 28dB, significantly improving debugging difficulty. The gain is increased by 0.8-1d compared to the suppressed vibrator. Thus, in the layout of ultra-wideband narrow-pitch multi-frequency antenna arrays, it can effectively reduce the coupling and mutual influence between each vibrator. At the same time, the newly designed 1727PCB full-wave vibrator unit has a small aperture size, high gain, convenient assembly, good consistency, and is easy to produce. In the ultra-wideband narrow-pitch array arrangement, the mutual influence between pairs of vibrators will not be caused by the large aperture.

[0048] All technical features in this embodiment can be freely combined according to actual needs.

[0049] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of this utility model. In addition, this utility model can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious substitutions without departing from the concept of this technical solution are within the protection scope of this utility model.
