Embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing the utility model is further specified.
Flat-plate lens antenna based on the magnetic resonance structure; Comprise the medium substrate 1 that a plurality of parallel equidistant are arranged, said medium substrate 1 can cover the actinal surface of traditional antenna to be measured, and the plane at medium substrate 1 place is vertical with the electromagnetic wave incident direction; Be provided with the approaching filler 2 of electromagnetic parameter and air between two adjacent media substrates; The one side of said medium substrate 1 is provided with along horizontal and vertical evenly distributed square structure unit 3, and each said construction unit 3 is provided with and covers the split ring resonator SRR structure that copper cash constitutes, and described split ring resonator SRR structure is a square; Open Side Down for split ring resonator, and the copper cash that covers of opening both sides extends upward to ring.The thickness of said medium substrate is sub_h; The length of side of said cellular construction is sub_a; The span of sub_a is λ/10-λ/6, and λ is the wavelength of corresponding frequency, and the spacing of two adjacent media substrates is 0.8 * (sub_a-sub_h) to 1.2 * (sub_a-sub_h).
In the utility model, the copper that covers of medium substrate one side etches away fully, and another side covers copper with part and etches away, and makes the remaining copper formation of covering cover copper cash; Constitute split ring resonator SRR structure, in each cellular construction, split ring resonator is as shown in Figure 2; Wherein: the length of side of cellular construction is sub_a, and the length of side of split ring resonator SRR is srr_a, and covering copper line width is w; The length of covering the copper cash extension is b, and the aperture pitch of split ring resonator is g, and the radius of 90 ° of circular arcs that split ring resonator is four jiaos is r.Suppose that direction of wave travel is the z direction, the magnetic resonance cellular construction is along x direction and (periodically) arrangement equably of y direction, and the unit number of x direction and y direction confirms that according to the bore of antenna to be measured medium substrate needs greater than antenna aperture, and covers whole actinal surface.Medium substrate is used FR4 (FR-4 epoxy glass cloth laminated board) or F4B (polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) high-frequency microwave circuit board material) usually, and the material with other also is fine certainly.The thickness of medium substrate has certain requirement to technology, but as long as confirm the material and the thickness of medium substrate, can meet the demands through the parameter of regulon structure basically.Each medium substrate is arranged along the z direction, and for fixed sample, the gap between layer and the layer need be filled with material like electromagnetic parameter and the proximal air.
The making of the utility model lens antenna and definite cellular construction are following with the concrete grammar that covers the copper cash dimensional parameters:
The first step, according to given frequency, the resonance that makes the magnetic resonance structure is around given frequency, and its S parameter of available business software CST simulated extraction is observed.In experimental verification, our setpoint frequency is 9.4GHz, must guarantee that electromagnetic wave passes the SRR structure, and the extended structure of electric field in the middle of need being parallel to, and to avoid magnetic resonance.In emulation, if being provided with of magnetic resonance Boundary Conditions in Structures is as shown in Figure 3, promptly magnetic direction is perpendicular to the structural plan of SRR, and direction of an electric field is parallel to middle extended structure, and what extracted this moment is the magnetic permeability of z direction and the dielectric constant of y direction.Through each parameter of adjustment structure, the resonance frequency of S parameter is transferred near the given frequency.
In second step, whether other components of observing dielectric constant and magnetic permeability approach 1.If the value of other components is too big or too little, all can cause the impedance between air layer and the lens not match, thereby make reflection excessive, influence lens efficiency.For transverse electric field mode (TE mould), mainly consider ε z, ε x, μ yThree components; For transverse magnetic pattern (TM mould), mainly consider μ z, μ x, ε yThree components.That our sample is realized is μ zBe zero, mainly act on the TM mould, so emphasis is considered μ z, μ x, ε yThree components and wave impedance.

In the 4th step, manufacture sample.Medium substrate shape and required unit number confirm that according to antenna aperture to be measured Fig. 1 is the partial schematic diagram in the monolithic dielectric-slab xy plane.The number of plies of the medium substrate that z direction equidistance is arranged is at least 2 layers, and the span of two adjacent media substrate spacings is 0.8 * (sub_a-sub_h) to 1.2 * (sub_a-sub_h), and we are taken as a-sub_h in the experiment.
The 5th step, experiment test.Here test with the standard horn of X-band, the utilization sample improves the directionality of its H face far-field pattern, and the E face is not had influence basically.Fig. 8 is the comparison diagram at bell-mouthed H face directional diagram.Wherein solid line is represented the test result figure of empty loudspeaker, and dotted line representes to add the later test result of lens.From figure, can see that added after the lens, the beamwidth of loudspeaker has reduced by 38%, has significantly improved its directionality.
