Description

Broadband miniaturized Fabry-Perot resonant cavity antenna
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of antennas, and further relates to a Fabry-Perot resonant cavity antenna which can be used for satellite communication and radar systems.
Background
With the rapid development of modern and next-generation communication, electronic countermeasure and other technologies, the role of the antenna becomes more and more important. In the fields of on-board antennas, remote transmission, base station antennas, and the like, people often need an antenna with a particularly strong ability to receive and transmit radio signals in a particular direction, and thus the demand for a high-gain directional antenna is increasing. Meanwhile, miniaturization and light weight are inevitable trends in modern technology development, and antennas are no exception. Although conventional high-gain antennas, such as microstrip array antennas, lens antennas, waveguide horn antennas, and reflective array antennas, can provide the desired high gain, their use is limited due to their large size, complex design and processing, and high manufacturing cost. The Fabry-Perot resonant cavity antenna is one of high-gain antennas, has obvious advantages in the aspects of miniaturization, high efficiency, assembly flexibility and the like, and is widely concerned in the field of domestic and foreign antennas. However, because the fabry-perot resonator antenna belongs to a cavity antenna, and the 3dB gain bandwidth of the fabry-perot resonator antenna is still very narrow, how to widen the 3dB gain bandwidth of the fabry-perot resonator antenna and make the antenna more miniaturized becomes a research direction in the field of the fabry-perot resonator antenna.
Normally, a fabry-perot resonator antenna is composed of a feed source, a metal floor and a partially reflecting surface. A resonant cavity is formed between the partial reflection surface and the metal floor, electromagnetic waves radiated from the feed source can be reflected in the resonant cavity, and the electromagnetic waves reflected for multiple times are superposed on the outer surface of the partial reflection surface in the same phase, so that the gain of the feed source antenna is improved. However, since the fabry-perot resonator antenna is one of cavity antennas, the 3dB gain bandwidth is small and the size is generally large, so that it is a challenge for designers to widen the gain bandwidth while miniaturizing the antenna.
In response to the above problems, researchers do not proposeFew solutions are available. For example, K.Konstantinis, A.P.Fereidis, and P.S.Hall, in IEEE transactions Propaga, vol.63, No.1, pp.423-427, Jan.2015 journal, a Broadband High-Gain Fabry-Perot resonator antenna operating in the 13-14.6GHz band is proposed. The feed source adopts a slot antenna, and the total number of partial reflecting surfaces is three. The two sides of the dielectric substrate with the partial reflecting surface are respectively printed with a square patch and an etched square ring so as to generate a phase gradient with a positive slope and improve the gain bandwidth of the antenna. However, the fabry-perot resonator antenna using the multi-layered partially reflective surface has a small bandwidth and a large size. Experiments show that only 14% of the antenna can reach 3dB gain bandwidth in the working frequency range, and the aperture surface of the antenna is as high as 16 lambda0 2. The gain bandwidth of the antenna is widened at the cost of increasing the caliber size of the antenna, so that the power loss of the antenna is increased, and the practicability of the antenna is reduced.

the support 12 adopts a nylon frame with a low dielectric constant to form a narrow air band gap between the first dielectric substrate 2 and the second dielectric substrate 5, a Fabry-Perot resonant cavity is formed between the lower reflecting surface 6 of the second dielectric substrate and the metal floor 9, and an air band gap is formed between the parasitic patch 8 and the metal floor 9 to inhibit the excitation of the antenna surface wave;
the metal floor 9 has two parallel rectangular slots 91 and 92 etched therein to widen the impedance bandwidth of the antenna.
Preferably, the regular hexagonal units of the upper reflecting surface 1 of the first layer of reflecting structure and the upper reflecting surface 4 of the second layer of reflecting structure are regular hexagonal patch structures;
preferably, the regular hexagonal units of the reflective surface 3 under the first layer of reflective structure are regular hexagonal ring structures;

Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following advantages:
firstly, in the same type of multilayer broadband Fabry-Perot resonant cavity antenna, the periodically arranged regular hexagon units are firstly adopted, the units are arranged along the perpendicular bisector direction of three adjacent sides of the regular hexagon, and compared with the traditional square units and circular units, the arrangement direction is increased, namely the arrangement among the units is more compact, the coupling is stronger, so that the antenna can be more miniaturized and obtain wider gain bandwidth;
secondly, the parasitic patch and the feeder line are prevented from contacting each other due to the adoption of a feeding mode of coupling the double patches by the double slits, and compared with the traditional slit feeding mode, the parasitic patch and the feeder line have the air band gap, so that surface wave excitation can be well inhibited, the impedance bandwidth of the antenna is favorably improved, and the radiation pattern of the antenna is improved;
thirdly, compared with the same type of multilayer broadband Fabry-Perot resonant cavity antenna, the multi-layer broadband Fabry-Perot resonant cavity antenna not only has wider gain bandwidth, but also has lower profile, so that the multi-layer broadband Fabry-Perot resonant cavity antenna can work in a lower frequency range and has better practicability;
