Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of antenna design, and particularly relates to a broadband vertical polarization antenna with a half-space covering function.
Background
Communication between aircraft is an important requirement in the design of airborne antennas. The azimuth angle, the pitch angle and the roll angle between two airplanes are often changed greatly, and particularly for a fighter plane platform, when various tactical maneuvers are carried out, the relative position between the two airplanes is often changed greatly in a short time. In such situations, it is important to ensure proper communication between the aircraft, which can have serious consequences if there is a problem with the communication between the aircraft during this time. This places a high demand on the inter-aircraft communication antennas, i.e. the directional patterns of the antennas are required to have a large spatial coverage to ensure proper communication between the aircraft in the event of rapid changes in the relative positions of the two aircraft.
A common airborne communication antenna between airplanes adopts a monopole antenna form, the antenna is omni-directional covered on the azimuth plane of the airplane, and the polarization condition of the antenna is better, namely vertical polarization. But such antennas have poor coverage on the pitch plane of the aircraft, as a consequence of the characteristics of the antenna itself. Through preliminary simulation calculation, the gain of-3 dBi is taken as a standard, the monopole antenna can only cover about 60% of space angle above the airplane, and the gain of the antenna is extremely low right above the airplane, so that the requirement of normal communication between the airplanes can not be met completely.
However, it is not sufficient to just satisfy the half-space coverage of the antenna. Since the communication frequency between the airplanes is not fixed, the communication frequency needs to be changed frequently in order to prevent interception, and therefore, the communication antenna needs to be capable of performing half-space coverage in a broadband range. In addition, the polarization of the antenna is important, and vertical polarization is often used for communication antennas between aircraft.
Disclosure of Invention
Aiming at the defects of the prior art, the invention designs the broadband vertical polarization antenna with the half-space coverage function, and the gain of the antenna on the upper half plane can be all larger than-3.5 dBi by combining the disc conical metal body antenna and the spiral linear metal strip antenna, so that the half-space coverage of a directional diagram is realized. In addition, the antenna designed by the invention has the characteristics of small size and strong stability, and can meet the installation and use requirements on a fighter.
According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a broadband vertical polarization antenna having a half-space coverage function, including a metal chassis, a discoid tapered metal body erected above the metal chassis, and a spiral-shaped metal strip spirally wound around an outer periphery of the discoid tapered metal body.
The disc-cone-shaped metal body is an inverted truncated cone, the radius of a lower circle of the disc-cone-shaped metal body is smaller than that of an upper circle of the disc-cone-shaped metal body, a distance g is formed between the lower circle and the metal bottom plate,
the spiral metal band and the disc-shaped conical metal body have a gap s therebetween, one end of the spiral metal band contacts the metal bottom plate, and the other end of the spiral metal band extends upwards and spirally beyond the disc-shaped conical metal body, and the structure of the spiral metal band is expressed by the following parametric equation:
x＝(p+qt/(2π))*cos(t)
y＝(p+qt/(2π))*sin(t)
z＝ut/(2π)
wherein x, y and z are respectively position coordinates of each point on the spiral metal belt, and the unit is mm; p, q and u are respectively undetermined constants, p is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to 10, q is more than or equal to 10 and less than or equal to 40, and u is more than or equal to 15 and less than or equal to 50; t is a parameter of the parameter equation, and t is more than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 4 pi.
In some embodiments, the width w of the helical metal strip may be 1-3 mm.
In some embodiments, the distance g may be 1-10 mm.
In some embodiments, the gap s may be 1-10 mm. The specific value of the gap s can be determined by the parametric equation of the helical metal strip and the size of the discoid metal body.
In some embodiments, the metal base plate and the spiral metal strip may be made of a copper plate having a thickness of 0.2 to 2 mm.
In some embodiments, the metal base plate may be a square plate.
In some embodiments, the axis of the disc-tapered metal body is located at the very center of the metal baseplate.
In some embodiments, the wavelength of the broadband vertically polarized antenna may be 160mm to 230 mm.
The invention has the beneficial effects that:
1) the disc-cone-shaped metal body antenna and the spiral linear metal strip antenna are combined, so that the gain of the upper half plane of the antenna is all larger than-3.5 dBi, and the half-space coverage of a directional diagram is realized.
2) Because the two antennas of the disc-cone-shaped metal body antenna and the spiral linear metal strip antenna have vertical polarization characteristics, the antenna can be combined outside the range of the antenna with theta being equal to 0 degrees, and the vertical polarization gain of the upper half plane is all larger than-3.5 dBi (due to the limitation of physical factors, the antenna cannot realize vertical polarization in the range of the antenna with theta being equal to 0 degrees), namely, the half-space coverage of a vertical polarization directional diagram is realized.
3) Because the two antennas of the disc-cone-shaped metal body antenna and the spiral linear metal strip antenna have broadband characteristics, the gain directional diagram of the antenna can be enabled to change less in a very wide frequency band by combining the two antennas, and the directional diagram half-space coverage in a broadband range is realized.
4) The antenna has the advantages of simple structure, convenient realization and strong structural stability, and can be suitable for different application scenes.
5) The antenna of the invention is only composed of metal and does not comprise a dielectric plate, thus being suitable for high and low temperature environments encountered in airplane flight and ensuring the working performance of the antenna.
