In recent years, there has been much interest in end-fire antennas based on artificial surface plasmons.
However, the existing end-fire antenna based on artificial surface plasmons still has the following problems: 1) The end-fire realization mode still depends on resonant radiators such as dipole arrays and the like, which can cause the designed antenna to have larger transverse size and larger occupied space, so that the aperture efficiency of the antenna is lower; 2) There is a problem of narrow operating bandwidth due to the design using the resonant type radiator.
For example, chinese patent application CN202111621835.5 discloses a broadband high-gain planar endfire antenna based on artificial surface plasmons.

As shown in fig. 2, the artificial surface plasmon radiation stripes 16 symmetrically arranged up and down form a dipole array by the opposite current realized by the balun structure 13, thereby realizing the end-fire radiation of the antenna. Meanwhile, the artificial surface plasmon radiation strip 16 is used as a radiation source of the antenna, so that the overall size of the antenna is reduced, the occupied area of metal is reduced, the small caliber of the antenna is realized, and the high caliber efficiency is realized.

As shown in fig. 2 and 3, the second microstrip line 132 and the third microstrip line 133 are U-shaped microstrip lines with opposite bending directions, so that the coupling between the two microstrip lines caused by the bending in the same direction can be avoided. The first microstrip line 131 is preferably a 50ohm microstrip line.
As shown in fig. 1 and 7, the gradual change parallel double lines 14 and the transition parallel double lines 15 are arranged, so that the structure is simple, the electrical size is small, and the processing is easy. The dielectric substrate bottom layer 21 is provided with a ground metal layer 22 having a length corresponding to the balun structure 13.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the artificial surface plasmon radiation stripe 16 includes an artificial surface plasmon transition section 161, a periodic rectangular patch section 162, an artificial surface plasmon transition section 163 and a patch, one end of the periodic rectangular patch section 162 is connected to the gradient parallel double line 14 through the artificial surface plasmon transition section 161, the other end of the periodic rectangular patch section 162 is connected to the artificial surface plasmon transition section 163, and the patch is equidistantly disposed outside the artificial surface plasmon radiation stripe 16.
As shown in fig. 2, the artificial surface plasmon radiation stripes 16 are provided with gaps 17 on the inner sides thereof and arranged in parallel to each other. Through setting up two artifical surface plasmon radiation strips 16 that are parallel completely, and the clearance 17 between two artifical surface plasmon radiation strips 16 is an equal width clearance, can realize that antenna lateral dimension is little, high bore efficiency, avoids increasing the lateral dimension of antenna, reduces the problem that bore efficiency and processing are complicated.
As shown in fig. 2, 4, 5 and 6, the patches include a first periodic patch 164, a rectangular patch 165 and a second periodic patch 166, a first inclined plane 167 is disposed at a top end of the first periodic patch 164, a bottom end of the first periodic patch 164 is disposed at an outer side of the artificial surface plasmon transition section 161, the rectangular patch 165 is disposed at an outer side of the periodic rectangular patch section 162, heights of the rectangular patches 165 are the same, a second inclined plane 168 is disposed at a top end of the second periodic patch, and a bottom end of the second periodic patch 166 is disposed at an outer side of the artificial surface plasmon transition section 163. The first inclined plane 167 can better realize the transition from the parallel double lines 15 to the artificial surface plasmon radiation strips 16, and the second inclined plane 168 realizes the phase matching between the antenna and the free space through the artificial surface plasmons with gradually reduced height, so that the electromagnetic waves are better radiated into the free space.
As shown in fig. 2, 4 and 6, the height of the first periodic patch 164 gradually increases from the end of the distal periodic rectangular patch segment 162 to the end of the proximal periodic rectangular patch segment 162. The height of the second periodic patches 166 decreases from the distal periodic rectangular patch segment 162 end to the proximal periodic rectangular patch segment 162 end. The first periodic patch 164 can better realize the transition from the parallel double lines 15 to the artificial surface plasmon radiation strip 16 without additionally arranging an I-type resonator, and meanwhile, the adoption of a shorter length ratio can be realized, and the overall size of the antenna is reduced; the second periodic patch 166 achieves phase matching of the antenna with free space through artificial surface plasmons whose heights are gradually reduced, so that electromagnetic waves are better radiated into free space.
As in fig. 1 and 2, the artificial surface plasmon radiation strip 16 is used for radiation and a traveling wave mode is transmitted, which enables the antenna to have a wide operating bandwidth. The impedance matching of the antenna is realized through the transition of the current of the balun structure 13 through the gradient parallel double lines 14, the transition parallel double lines 15 and the artificial surface plasmon transition section 161, so that a wider bandwidth can be further realized; the matching of the electromagnetic wave is realized by the gradual change of the artificial surface plasmon transition section 163, so that the electromagnetic wave can be effectively radiated into a free space, and a higher gain is realized.
In the embodiment, the height of the rectangular patch 165 on the artificial surface plasmon radiation strip 16 is adjusted to regulate and control the dispersion curve of the artificial surface plasmon radiation strip 16, so that the working frequency and the bandwidth of the antenna are regulated: as the height of the rectangular patch 165 increases, the operating frequency of the antenna decreases and the operating bandwidth narrows; as the height of the rectangular patch 165 is lowered, the operating frequency of the antenna increases and the operating bandwidth widens.
In the embodiment, the length of the artificial surface plasmon radiation strip 16 is regulated and controlled by adjusting the number of rectangular patches 165 on the artificial surface plasmon radiation strip 16, so that the regulation and control of the antenna gain and the beam width are realized: when the number of the rectangular patches 165 is increased, the gain of the antenna is increased, and the beam width is narrowed; when the number of the rectangular patches 165 is reduced, the gain of the antenna is reduced and the beam width is widened.
The artificial surface plasmon high-aperture efficiency end-fire antenna realizes the regulation and control of the working frequency of the antenna by adjusting the lengths of the second microstrip line 132 and the third microstrip line 133 in the balun structure 13. When the total length difference between the second microstrip line 132 and the third microstrip line 133 in the balun structure 13 increases, the antenna operating frequency becomes smaller, and conversely, when the total length difference decreases, the antenna operating frequency becomes larger.
The artificial surface plasmon high-caliber efficiency end-fire antenna is obviously different from the conventional artificial surface plasmon end-fire antenna. Structurally: the existing artificial surface plasmon end-fire antenna generally adopts an asymmetric structure or uses a resonance type radiator, and the artificial surface plasmon end-fire antenna of the embodiment adopts a completely symmetric structure; in principle: the artificial surface plasmon cannot radiate energy efficiently to a free space because of its strong field binding property, and in order to realize radiation of the artificial surface plasmon to a free space, it is necessary to destroy the field distribution. The existing artificial surface plasmon end-fire antenna uses an artificial surface plasmon transmission line as the feed of the antenna, radiates by coupling the energy on the artificial surface plasmon transmission line to the radiator, or excites a differential electric field on the artificial surface plasmon radiation strip 16 by this artificial surface plasmon end-fire antenna adopting an asymmetric structure. According to the artificial surface plasmon endfire antenna, the balun structure 13 is adopted to feed dipole type artificial surface plasmons, and therefore effective energy radiation is achieved.
The artificial surface plasmon high-caliber efficiency end-fire antenna adopts the thin dielectric substrate with a single-layer metal structure to realize a low profile, and the adopted symmetrical structure ensures that end-fire beams formed by the antenna are not inclined. Finally, the antenna has the characteristics of low section, wide working bandwidth, high aperture efficiency, good end-fire directional directivity, small size and the like, and can be applied to the microwave field.
The simulation and actual measurement verification results of the embodiment are as follows:
FIG. 8 is a graph of S parameters of an artificial surface plasmon high aperture efficiency end-fire antenna of an embodiment, the antenna has an operating bandwidth of 9-11GHz, a relative bandwidth of 20% and a wider operating bandwidth.
Fig. 9, 10 and 11 are respectively the 9GHz, 10GHz and 11GHz directional patterns of the artificial surface plasmon high aperture efficiency endfire antenna of the embodiment, and it can be seen from the directional patterns that the beam is not inclined in the endfire direction and has excellent endfire performance.
Fig. 12 shows gains and radiation efficiencies obtained by taking points every 0.1GHz in the 9-11GHz band of the artificial surface plasmon high aperture efficiency endfire antenna of the embodiment, where the antenna has the highest gain of 13.3dBi, has an average radiation efficiency of 98%, and has high gains and high radiation efficiencies.
The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and all technical solutions that belong to the idea of the present invention belong to the scope of the present invention.
