Description

Light cable membrane microstrip phased array antenna structure
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of aerospace microstrip phased array antennas, and relates to a light cable membrane microstrip phased array antenna structure.
Background
The space solar power station consists of a satellite, a huge solar cell array, an ultra-large space microwave transmitting antenna and a ground huge microwave receiving antenna. The electric energy collected by the solar cell array is transmitted to the ground in the form of microwaves by the space microwave antenna, is received by the ground giant microwave antenna, and is transmitted into a ground power grid for use. The space solar power station is hopeful to solve the environmental pollution problem caused by energy crisis and thermal power generation, so the space solar power station becomes a hot spot for research in various countries. However, most researches are in a research stage and do not enter an engineering stage due to the limitations of the current state of the art, the cost sources and the like. The space microwave transmitting antenna is a key component with great technical difficulty in development.
According to the current research, if a transmitting antenna on a satellite adopts a 5.8 GHz-10 GHz frequency band microstrip phased array antenna, the diameter of the antenna needs 200 meters, and the size of the antenna is increased by more than ten times than that of the existing satellite antenna. The ultra-large antenna also solves the problems of profile errors caused by thermal deformation and excessive weight of the antenna.
Phased array antennas are a common antenna form for Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellites, and currently transmitted phased array antennas have the defects of high weight, high manufacturing cost and low storage efficiency. SAR satellites transmitted by 2000 abroad comprise SeaSAT, ERS-1/2, JERS-1 and RADASAT-1, the antenna structure forms are folding unfolding phased array antennas, and the weight of the antennas is large. The model transmitted after 2000 includes: SAR Lupe, COSMO-SkyMed, terraSAR-X, tanDEM-X, TECSAR and the like, and the phased array antenna is adopted by the rest antenna structures except the SAR Lupe which is a solid surface parabolic antenna, but the size and the weight of the antenna are reduced, and the antenna surface density is about 10kg/m < 2 >. The size of the microstrip phased array antenna of the first SAR satellite which is transmitted in China is only 10m multiplied by 3.4m, but the surface density of the microstrip phased array antenna exceeds 14kg/m2. Therefore, the weight of the conventional phased array antenna is still too heavy to meet the requirement of the microwave transmitting antenna of the solar power station with ultra-large scale space, and the lightweight design is needed.
The traditional microstrip phased array antenna generally comprises a planar array composed of a plurality of subarrays, and each antenna subarray is composed of an electric board and a structural board. The electric board consists of two layers of Kevlar/Nomex honeycomb boards, two layers of discontinuous copper foil radio frequency radiation units are arranged on the surface and in the middle of the electric board, a continuous copper foil grounding layer is arranged below the electric board, and the structural board is a carbon fiber aluminum honeycomb sandwich board. In order to reduce thermal deformation, a thermal release design is adopted between the electric board and the structural board, and the thermal release design comprises a small number of rigid connecting pieces, a large number of flexible connecting pieces and a large number of metal embedded parts, so that the weight of the antenna subarray board is large. Therefore, a light cable membrane microstrip phased array antenna structure is provided.
