Description

Double-frequency circular polarization hexagonal horn antenna for improving aperture efficiency of array surface
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of microwave antennas, and particularly relates to a satellite-borne double-frequency circularly polarized horn antenna which is mainly applied to a Ku/Ka frequency band receiving and transmitting integrated double-frequency circularly polarized feed source in a satellite communication system.
Background
With the development of satellite communication technology, the application requirement of an antenna system to a Ku/Ka frequency band is higher and higher, and the transmission and reception work in different frequency bands in satellite communication requires dual-frequency work of an antenna. The antenna system capable of transmitting and receiving circularly polarized waves has unique advantages in various complex environments, circularly polarized waves have strong anti-interference capability, observation is carried out along the propagation direction, the electric field vector rotates clockwise, the circularly polarized waves are called right-handed circularly polarized waves, and the electric field vector rotates counterclockwise, the circularly polarized waves are called left-handed circularly polarized waves. After the right-hand circularly polarized wave emitted by the antenna meets an object, the left-hand circularly polarized wave is reflected, and the interference effect on the transmitting antenna does not exist. The circularly polarized wave antenna can also be used as a detection radar and an interference radar, can receive signals of any linearly polarized wave, and can be used as the detection radar in battlefields and complex environments. The circularly polarized wave antenna can generate interference effect on any linearly polarized wave and elliptically polarized wave, and therefore can be used as an interference radar. A common dual-frequency circularly polarized horn is a standard linear conical horn, the diameter of the horn is large, the height of the horn is high, and the gain cannot meet the requirement in some future communication occasions.
Because rectangular waveguides and polygonal waveguides are not suitable for transmitting circularly polarized waves, most of the existing circularly polarized horn antennas are circular structures, but gaps are left among all horns when the circular horn antennas form an array, so that the aperture efficiency of the array surface of the horn antenna is reduced. The hexagonal horn openings are regular hexagons, can be uniformly spread out on the plane, and no gap is left behind the hexagonal horn composition array surface, so that the hexagonal horn has higher caliber efficiency, but the hexagonal horn has higher general axial ratio and poorer circular polarization.
In summary, the prior art has the following disadvantages: (1) the common standard linear conical horn has larger volume and the gain is to be improved; (2) circular polarization can be well realized by the circular loudspeakers, but gaps exist among the loudspeakers when the array surfaces are formed, and the caliber efficiency is low; (3) when the array surface is formed by the hexagonal horns, no gap is left between the horns, the caliber efficiency is higher, but the circular polarization is poorer.
