The invention discloses an orthogonal directional coupler and a
microwave system based on a micro-coaxial technology, the orthogonal directional coupler comprises a
metal outer conductor, an upper inner conductor and a lower inner conductor, the upper inner conductor and the lower inner conductor are suspended in the
metal outer conductor through a periodic medium support loading structure; the upper inner conductor and the lower inner conductor serve as two identical micro coaxial
coupling lines to be cascaded, the micro coaxial
coupling lines are symmetrical multi-stage impedance stepped couplers, each micro coaxial
coupling line is provided with n coupling units, the coupler structure is symmetrical about the center coupling unit, the upper inner conductor and the lower inner conductor are overlapped in the axial direction at the center coupling unit, and the upper inner conductor and the lower inner conductor are overlapped in the axial direction at the center coupling unit. The upper inner conductor and the lower inner conductor extend from the center coupling unit to the two ends, the upper inner conductor and the lower inner conductor deviate from the center to the two sides, and the closer to the coupling units at the two ends, the larger the offset is; the ultra-
wideband orthogonal antenna can work in the frequency range of 5 GHz to 100 GHz, the
return loss is superior to 15 dB, the
phase change is smaller than 5.5 degrees, the
directivity is superior to 10 dB, and the ultra-
wideband orthogonal antenna can be used for generating ultra-
wideband orthogonal signals.
