Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following beneficial effects:
1) The invention puts the feed network component into each layer of conductor cavity, connects the feed network components in two adjacent layers of conductor cavities by using the transmission line to form a space three-dimensional feed network. When the space three-dimensional phase shifter is used for a base station antenna, because double space exists, cables in a space integrated feed network can be provided, and a strip line and the like are used for replacing the cables, a highly integrated beam forming network without the cables is designed, so that the antenna has minimum welding spots, namely, the production efficiency and consistency of the antenna are improved, the volume of the antenna is reduced by approximately 50 percent, materials are saved, the cost is reduced, and the space three-dimensional phase shifter is convenient to transport and flexible to use.
2) When the highly integrated metal strip line feed network manufactured as a whole is used in the design of the base station antenna, the oscillator and the phase shifter of the antenna are not connected by the cable, so the antenna designed by the highly integrated metal strip line (or the printed circuit board provided with the microstrip line) feed network has small insertion loss and higher gain than the antenna connected by the cable. This design allows us to develop the antenna with the best gain.
3) As a highly integrated metal strip line (or printed circuit board with microstrip line) feed network manufactured integrally, when applied to a base station antenna, only the main feed line and the input port and the connecting port of the vibrator and the feed network are needed to be welded, therefore, the number of welding spots of the antenna using the technology is far smaller than that of welding spots of a competitor antenna, the probability of intermodulation generation is reduced during production, the intermodulation rate during production of the antenna is improved, and the consistency of standing waves is also good.
4) When the space three-dimensional phase shifter is used for a base station antenna, the assembly of the antenna is very simple due to the fact that the components are modularized, fewer assembly workers are needed compared with the antenna in the prior art, cables are not needed compared with the prior art, cables with various different lengths do not need to be cut, the length of each cable is not needed to be ensured to be accurate, and supervision workers are not needed to weld the cables at the correct positions during production, so that the quality of welding inspection by QCs is reduced.
5) During mass production, the feed network can be manufactured through a metal stamping process, so that the production efficiency is improved, and the production cost is thoroughly reduced.
6) The traditional array antenna adjustable phase shifting device is characterized in that an independent conductor cavity is supported by a support column on the back surface of a reflecting plate, the phase shifting device is installed in the conductor cavity, and all elements of the traditional array antenna are connected by cables. The U-shaped reflecting plate and the phase shifter cavity are integrally formed, the reflecting plate (the surface of the conductor shell) and the phase shifter conductor cavity share one surface, the reflecting plate and the phase shifter are not mutually independent, in the existing design, the reflecting plate and the phase shifter are mutually independent components, the phase shifter is supported on the reflecting plate, and the transmission mechanism of the phase shifter is higher than the cavity of the phase shifter, so that the height of the antenna is increased. The phase shifting device and the strip line are directly arranged in the conductor cavity, the transmission mechanism is buried in the reflecting plate (the surface of the conductor shell) and the phase shifter cavity, so that the thickness of the whole antenna can be well reduced.
7) The new design enables us to design antennas with different vertical plane patterns according to the needs of customers, and only the structure of the metal conductor strip line needs to be changed. For example, the first layer of feed network provides the best gain and the second layer of feed network provides low sidelobe suppression and zero padding.
8) Because the feed network of the electrically tunable antenna is very complex, a large number of coaxial cables are used for antenna design of the base station antenna enterprise at present, so that the welding points of the antenna are too many, and wiring is very complex, therefore, a large number of workers are required in the production process of the base station antenna, and automation is very difficult to realize. Because the design has the characteristic of high integration, the product designed by the technology can completely realize automatic production in the production process, all welding and assembly are completely realized by robots, and as a result, the production efficiency of the antenna is 5-8 times that of a traditional antenna enterprise, and the consistency of the produced antenna is greatly improved and the reject ratio is reduced due to the characteristic of high integration.
9) The lower layer feed network comprises a first input port and six first output ports; the upper layer feed network comprises six five-port networks, each five-port network comprising four second output ports and one second input port connected with one first output port through a transmission line. The number of transmission lines connected with the upper and lower feed networks is six, and after the upper and lower feed networks are connected into a whole, the whole network forms a twenty-four-one network, namely an input port and twenty-four output ports. Since there are only 6 transmission lines, correspondingly, there are only 6 windows for accommodating the transmission lines processed on the cavity, thus reducing CNC processing amount and processing cost.
10 Because the top layer strip line adopts a one-to-four scheme (namely, a five-port network is divided into four second output ports and one second input port connected with one first output port through a transmission line), the number of parts is correspondingly reduced, and the length of the bottom layer strip line is correspondingly reduced. For example, a base station antenna designed based on a feed network with one input and twenty-four output ports has 24 radiators, and the top strip line only has 6 independent five-port networks and one lower feed network, so that the length of the bottom strip line is reduced, which is beneficial to reducing the processing difficulty and reducing the manufacturing cost of the strip line.
11 The one-minute scheme is beneficial to reducing the leakage of electromagnetic waves, reducing coupling, improving S parameters and improving performance due to the reduction of the number of transmission lines; the welding points are correspondingly reduced, and the unstable factors of welding are correspondingly reduced, so that the maintenance cost is reduced; the length of the antenna is 1.9 meters, and the highest gain reaches 23dBi.
