Description
Technical Field

Background
In a broadband antenna having a plurality of array elements, coupling between the array elements is generally regarded as a main factor for deteriorating the performance of the antenna array, and particularly when the spacing between the array elements is small, the coupling between the array elements affects impedance matching, radiation patterns, side lobe levels, scanning characteristics, and the like of the antenna. Therefore, decoupling structures are usually loaded between the array elements to weaken the influence of coupling on the antenna performance, and thus coupling suppression is realized. The single negative characteristic of the super-structure surface is an effective means for coupling suppression, but most of the super-structure surfaces for coupling suppression are placed above the antenna array at present, which increases the profile height of the antenna, and the super-structure surface is rarely applied to the coupling suppression of the broadband antenna.

Taking the dimensions of the respective parts of the split ring resonator shown in fig. 4 as an example, the dimensions of the split ring pairs in the first split ring array (fourth split ring array) of the present embodiment are respectively: a is 2mm, b is 0.1mm, c is 1.8mm, g is 0.4mm, and w is 0.2 mm; the sizes of the open-ended resonant ring pairs in the second and third open-ended resonant ring arrays (fifth and sixth open-ended resonant ring arrays) are respectively as follows: a is 2.5mm, b is 0.15mm, c is 0.4mm, g is 0.8mm, and w is 0.2 mm. The first split resonant ring array a1 has 11 × 3 split resonant ring pairs, and the second split resonant ring array a2 and the third split resonant ring array A3 each have 5 × 2 split resonant ring pairs.
As shown in fig. 5, the feed antenna array on the lower dielectric plate 2 includes 4 feed patch elements with the same size: the first feed patch unit 4-1, the second feed patch unit 4-2, the third feed patch unit 4-3 and the fourth feed patch unit 4-4, the first feed patch unit 4-1, the second feed patch unit 4-2, the third feed patch unit 4-3 and the fourth feed patch unit 4-4 correspond to the first coupling patch unit 3-1, the second coupling patch unit 3-2, the third coupling patch unit 3-3 and the fourth coupling patch unit 3-4 in position respectively, and are sequentially arranged on the lower dielectric plate 2 in a2 x 2 axisymmetric array form in the clockwise direction. The size and shape of the feed patch unit are the same as those of the coupling patch unit. The feeding patch units are fed by coaxial probes, a feeding point a is positioned on a central line of each feeding patch unit in the length direction and positioned at the lower part of each feeding patch unit, and the distance between the feeding point a and the bottom edge of each feeding patch unit is 2.2 mm. The seventh open resonator loop array B1 is disposed along the center line L2 in the width direction of the lower dielectric plate 2 and located between the adjacent feed patch elements in the y-axis direction, that is, the first feed patch element 4-1 and the second feed patch element 4-2 are located on the same side of the seventh open resonator loop array B1, and the third feed patch element 4-3 and the fourth feed patch element 4-4 are located on the other side of the seventh open resonator loop array B1.

The array of open-ended resonant rings on the upper and lower dielectric slabs forms a super-structured surface of the wideband antenna, and on the super-structured surface, two open-ended resonant ring pairs corresponding to the surfaces on both sides of the upper dielectric slab 1 and a corresponding open-ended resonant ring pair on the lower dielectric slab 2 form a super-structured surface unit (see fig. 3). The opening direction of the pair of open-ended resonance rings in the array of open-ended resonance rings on the lower dielectric plate 2 is the same as the opening direction of the pair of open-ended resonance rings in the array of open-ended resonance rings on the upper dielectric plate 1. The seventh split resonant ring array B1 has 11 × 3 split resonant ring pairs, and the eighth split resonant ring array B2 and the ninth split resonant ring array B3 each have 5 × 2 split resonant ring pairs.
For a binary array arranged along the y-axis, when one of the array elements is excited and the other array element is connected to a 50 Ω matched load, for the non-excited array element, the coupling mainly originates from the y-component of the electric field along the y-axisTo reduce coupling between the elements, the electromagnetic wave propagating along the y-axis should be evanescent. Thus, the relative permittivity and permeability should be one negative and the other positive, i.e.. epsilon.r<0,μr>0 or epsilonr>0,μr<0. Therefore, it is desirable to design a metamaterial surface with a single negative characteristic.
In this embodiment, the size of the open-ended resonant ring in the open-ended resonant ring array on the lower dielectric plate 2 is set to be larger than the size of the open-ended resonant ring in the open-ended resonant ring array on the upper dielectric plate 1, so that the open-ended resonant ring arrays on the upper and lower dielectric plates form a super-structured surface with a single negative characteristic. The sizes of the open resonant rings in the seventh open resonant ring array of this embodiment are respectively: a is 4.5mm, b is 0.1mm, c is 1.8mm, g is 0mm, and w is 0.2 mm; the sizes of the eighth and ninth open-ended resonant rings are respectively: a is 4.5mm, b is 0.1mm, c is 0.8mm, g is 0.2mm, and w is 0.2 mm.
In order to verify the effect of the antenna of the present inventionThe electromagnetic simulation software HFSS is used to simulate the super-structure surface unit of the broadband antenna in this embodiment, and the simulation parameters are as follows: the simulation was performed by using a waveguide transmission method, in which ideal electric walls (PEC) were disposed along the left and right sides of the x-axis, ideal magnetic walls (PMC) were disposed along the upper and lower sides of the z-axis, and waveguide ports were disposed along the two ends of the y-axis for excitation, and S-parameters obtained by simulating the periodic structure were shown in FIG. 6a as relative dielectric constant (. epsilon.) (S-parameter)r) And magnetic permeability (mu)r) As shown in FIG. 6b, the S parameter is a scattering parameter, including the reflection coefficient S11And a transmission coefficient S12Re (. epsilon.) in FIG. 6br) And Im (. epsilon.)r) Respectively representing the real and imaginary parts of the relative dielectric constant, Re (. mu.)r) And Im (μ)r) Respectively representing the real part and the imaginary part of the magnetic permeability, and determining the single negative characteristic of the unit by judging the positive and negative of the real parts of the magnetic permeability and the imaginary part of the magnetic permeability. As can be seen from FIGS. 6a and 6b, the metamaterial surface unit of the present embodiment excites a dual-frequency response, and the relative permittivity is positive and the permeability is negative in the frequency bands of 4.64 to 4.76GHz and 5.16 to 5.76GHz, indicating that the metamaterial surface unit is single negative. Meanwhile, the two frequency bands are close to each other, so that the broadband antenna array can be decoupled.
Coupling suppression can be realized by loading the open resonant ring array (the super-structure surface) between the radiation patch unit and the feed patch unit, and the size of the open resonant ring pair is adjusted to obtain the optimal decoupling effect. The super-structure surface formed by the open resonant ring array is coplanar with the radiation patch unit and the feed patch unit, so that the section height of the antenna is not increased, and compared with the situation that the section is increased by arranging most of the super-structure surface for coupling suppression above the antenna array, the broadband antenna has the characteristic of low section and the height of only 0.13 lambda0。
In order to verify the decoupling capacity of the metamaterial surface, a pair of proportional broadband antennas are arranged for comparison, and the broadband antennas of the comparative examples are identical to the broadband antennas of the embodiment except that the metamaterial surface consisting of the array of the split resonant rings is not arranged. Since the array of coupling patches is an axisymmetric structure, the first coupling patch unit is used for analysis. FIGS. 7a, 7b, 7c and 7d show the antenna of the present embodiment, respectivelyAnd S of the comparative example antenna11、S21、S31And S41Curve w.o. of the comparative example antenna, curve w.of the example antenna, S11Is the reflection coefficient, S21、S31、S41Is the transmission coefficient (also referred to as the coupling coefficient). As can be seen from FIG. 7a, the working bandwidth of the antenna of the embodiment is expanded from 22.0% (4.46-5.56 GHz) to 24.5% (4.36-5.58 GHz) by loading the metamaterial surface. And as can be seen from the coupling coefficients associated with the first coupled patch element (fig. 7b, 7c and 7d), the coupling coefficients (S) between adjacent array elements in the coupled patch array are within the operating frequency band21And S41) Coupling coefficient (S) between non-adjacent array elements31) All the antenna elements are reduced to be below-20 dB, and compared with the comparative antenna, the isolation is greatly improved, and the antenna is more obvious at low frequency.
Fig. 8 is a graph showing a gain comparison between the first coupled patch element and the coupled antenna array of the example antenna and the comparative example antenna (curve w.o. in the figure is a curve of the comparative example antenna, and curve w. is a curve of the example antenna). As can be seen from fig. 8, by loading the metamaterial surface, whether the gain of the coupled patch element or the gain of the coupled antenna array, the example antenna is increased relative to the comparative example antenna.
Fig. 9a and 9b are comparison diagrams of normalized radiation patterns of the first coupling patch element of the present embodiment and the reference antenna array at 4.6GHz and 5.4GHz, respectively, and it can be seen from fig. 9a and 9b that before decoupling, both patterns of the first coupling patch element of the comparison example deviate from the main radiation direction, but by decoupling, the pattern of the first coupling patch element of the embodiment is corrected to the main radiation direction. Fig. 9c and 9d are comparative plots of normalized radiation patterns at 4.6GHz and 5.4GHz for full feed of the example and comparative antennas, respectively, with the patterns of the example antenna maintaining a better shape.
From the simulation results, the invention has the advantages that the bandwidth of the antenna array is improved, the coupling is inhibited, the gain is improved, the directional diagram is corrected, the antenna has the characteristics of broadband, low coupling and low section, and the super-structure surface formed by the open resonant ring array can be effectively decoupled for the two-dimensional antenna array.
Although the present invention has been described with reference to a preferred embodiment, it should be understood that various changes, substitutions and alterations can be made herein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
