Embodiment
The utility model is described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
As shown in Figure 1, 2, a kind of repeated strain sensor based on microstrip antenna, including conductor patch are present embodiments provided Piece 1, dielectric substrate 2, conductor patch 1 pass through burn into photoetching, seccotine using relatively good materials of electric conductivity such as copper, silver, gold The mode that water is pasted is covered in a surface of dielectric substrate 2.Described dielectric substrate 2 uses the insulation material of known dielectric constant Material (its thickness will be much smaller than the operation wavelength of sensor), including:Polyimides, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), epoxy resin etc..It is described to lead Showing consideration for piece 1 includes web 5 and is installed in the wing plate 4 of web both sides, and the width of the wing plate 4 is more than the width of web 5, the wing Plate 4 is symmetricly set on the both sides of web.
When measurand is metal, repeated strain sensor of the present utility model can be not provided with metal ground plate Layer, when measurand is nonmetallic, repeated strain sensor of the present utility model also includes metal ground plate 3, the metal Earth plate 3 is one kind in aluminium sheet, steel plate, copper coin.
In the present embodiment, the curved smoothly transitted is symmetrical arranged into close to the bottom of web in two outsides of wing plate 4 6, the radiation field between paster edge and earth plate had both been added, also ensure that patch edges had more preferable sticking effect.Wherein, It is preferred that, the length of the wing plate is:5-20mm, width is 8-12mm.
The reference center frequency of the sensor is with the relation of sensor relevant parameter as shown in following equation:
In formula, fresRepresent resonant frequency (f01And f10TM is represented respectively01And TM10Resonant frequency under mode of operation, its In, TM01 and TM10 represent working sensor in (0,1) mould and (1,0) mould respectively;(0,1) mould and (1,0) mould represent sensing Two kinds of blocks of device);εreFor effective dielectric constant;C is the light velocity;LeAnd weRespectively current length and electric current width is (in ideal Geometrical length, width in the case of free from flaw respectively with paster is identical, when taking L and W respectively, corresponding to f01And f10);ΔLOC For line development length;L and W are respectively the geometrical length and geometric widths of conductor patch;εrFor the dielectric constant of dielectric substrate;h For the thickness of dielectric substrate.ΔwocFor line extension width.
Described computing formula is the special formula that rectangular conductor patch resonant frequency is calculated, can only for conductor patch 1 Certain reference role is played, the approximate range for determining working sensor frequency.Its principle is:When conductor patch is rectangle When, the current length L on its surfaceeEqual to the geometrical length L of paster, when conductor patch is improved into paster 1, electric current can be along patch The surface of piece 1 is flowed, and the electric current of patch edges can be flowed along paster profile (contour edge of wing plate and web), Cause the current length L of length directioneL is will be greater than, according to sensor resonant frequency computing formula, LeIncrease, fresIt can reduce.
The utility model changes the shape of conductor patch, with reference to the design concept of above-mentioned fatigue testing specimen, can be to structure The strain output valve amplification of generation, and may be mounted at its peripheral region during inconvenient install sensor at structural stress concentration Domain, can equally reach strain monitoring effect.In current microstrip antenna strain transducer, when patch size design it is smaller When, the resonant frequency of sensor can add instrument than larger, swept frequency range and performance requirement increase to vector network analyzer The use cost of device.The design is improved also in relation with the Miniaturization Design and meander technology of antenna to antenna patch simultaneously, Make it compared with overall dimension identical rectangular patch, with smaller resonant frequency, so as to reduce the requirement to measuring instrument. This sensor has the advantages that passive, wireless, simple in construction, small volume, thin profile, can form conformal with body structure surface, also The a wide range of monitoring to structural strain can be realized by the array arrangement of sensor.
