Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of antenna technology, and in particular to a dual-circularly polarized 5G millimeter-wave radiating unit. Background Technology
[0002] The rapid development of 5G networks marks a new era in communication technology. In this transformation, millimeter wave technology, as one of the core components of 5G communication, plays a crucial role. Compared to traditional frequency bands (Sub-6GHz), millimeter waves offer higher frequencies and greater bandwidth, enabling 5G to provide ultra-high-speed data transmission rates to meet the ever-increasing data demands.
[0003] Despite the significant technological advantages of millimeter waves, their application faces numerous challenges, particularly in transmission performance, mainly due to unsatisfactory signal anti-interference capabilities and complex structures. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem solved by this utility model is to provide a simple dual-circularly polarized 5G millimeter-wave radiating unit that is suitable for the n258 frequency band.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a dual-circularly polarized 5G millimeter-wave radiating unit, including a dielectric substrate, on which a ground layer, a coupler, and a square radiating patch are arranged sequentially from bottom to top. The coupler includes a first branch, a second branch, and two symmetrically arranged third branches. The two ends of the first branch are respectively connected to the two third branches, and the two ends of the second branch are respectively connected to the two third branches. One end of the third branch is provided with an antenna feed point. The dielectric substrate is provided with a metallized hole that conducts the antenna feed point and the square radiating patch. The other end of one third branch is a left-hand circularly polarized feed point, and the other end of the other third branch is a right-hand circularly polarized feed point. When the dual-circularly polarized 5G millimeter-wave radiating unit is viewed from a top angle, the coupler is symmetrical about a diagonal of the square radiating patch.
[0006] In one embodiment, the third stub includes a first segment and a second segment that are vertically connected, the first stub and the second stub being respectively connected to the first segment, and the antenna feed point being located on the second segment and away from the first segment.
[0007] In one embodiment, the first branch and the second branch are parallel to the second segment, respectively.
[0008] In one embodiment, when viewed from above, the square radiating patch covers the entire area of the second segment.
[0009] In one embodiment, a chamfer is provided on the outer side of the connection between the first segment and the second segment.
[0010] In one embodiment, the outer edge of the first segment has an outwardly protruding section, the length of which is less than the length of the first segment.
[0011] In one embodiment, when viewed from above, the square radiating patch covers a portion of one end of the protruding segment.
[0012] In one embodiment, the distance between the first branch and the second segment is greater than the distance between the second branch and the second segment, so that when viewed from above, the square radiating patch covers the entire area of the second branch.
[0013] In one embodiment, when viewed from above, the square radiating patch covers a portion of the central area of the first branch.
[0014] In one embodiment, when viewing the dual-circularly polarized 5G millimeter-wave radiating unit from a top-down perspective, both the left-hand circularly polarized feed point and the left-hand circularly polarized feed point are located outside the coverage area of the square radiating patch.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This dual-circularly polarized 5G millimeter-wave radiating unit has a simple and novel structure, low processing difficulty, and can effectively cover the n258 frequency band; it adopts a structure of coupler combined with square radiating patch, and uses a four-port directional coupler to feed the patch antenna. The two output ports of the coupler (i.e., antenna feed points) are respectively connected to a set of adjacent positions of the adjacent sides of the square radiating patch. Circular polarization is achieved by utilizing the 90-degree phase difference of the coupler output ports. At the same time, the input port and isolation port of the coupler serve as left-hand circularly polarized feed points and right-hand circularly polarized feed points for signal feeding, respectively, realizing left-hand and right-hand circular polarization. The dual-circularly polarized radiating unit has good signal anti-interference capability, can reduce the influence of multipath effect and atmospheric refraction, and gives the radiating unit high performance.
