Specific implementation mode
In order to solve the leakage problem of existing rectangular waveguide H-T power divider networks structure feeding network, the utility model Thinking is to build feeding network using E-T power divider networks.The faces rectangular waveguide E T-type structure power splitter can be from broadside subdivision, very The good leakage problem for solving feeding network, but E-T structure power splitters are the two paths of signals that signal is divided into opposite in phase (two output port phases differ 180 degree), Fig. 1 show that the E-T power divider networks of four ports, Fig. 2 are the E-T work(point Four port phase distributed simulation figures of device network, phase differs 180 degree between output port as shown in Figure 2, cannot meet each The consistent requirement of port requirements phase.Therefore, E-T power divider networks, which are never fed in existing waveguide Slot-array antennas, is It is used in system.In order to build the feed network for waveguide of waveguide array antenna using E-T power divider networks, the utility model passes through 90 ° of polarizers of mirror symmetry setting are separately connected to two output ports of each E-T power splitters of afterbody, to solve The problem of phase equalization.
Specifically, the utility model feed network for waveguide includes being cascaded by the one group of faces rectangular waveguide E T-type power splitter E-T power divider networks, two of the faces each rectangular waveguide E T-type power splitter of E-T power divider networks afterbody outputs Port is separately connected there are one 90 ° of polarizers, and the structure of the two 90 ° of polarizers is arranged in mirror symmetry.
For the faces each rectangular waveguide E T-type power splitter of afterbody, two output port signal phase difference It 180 °, in order to enable its phase is consistent, needs into horizontal phasing control, the utility model is arranged using two mirror symmetries 90 ° of polarizers come respectively that the output signal to two ports is into horizontal phasing control, since two 90 ° of polarizer structures are in mirror image pair Claim setting, it is+90 ° of polarizers to be equivalent to one, the other is -90 ° of polarizers, either E-T power splitters phase in advance with+ The port of 90 ° of polarizer connections or delayed phase is connect with+90 ° of polarizers, and final result is all two port output letters Number phase is consistent.Due to be in E-T power splitter process from the faces broadside E subdivision, by the characteristic of rectangular waveguide it is found that It, can be with effective solution transmission network there is no leaking along the gap of broadside center line subdivision due to not cutting off electric current The leakage problem of network.The especially high-frequency band as similar E-band, can effectively inhibit the leakage problem of feeding network, drop The Insertion Loss of low entire feeding network, while the requirement of feeding network processing flatness can be effectively reduced, reduce difficulty of processing.
For the ease of public understanding, with two specific embodiments and carry out the technical side to the utility model in conjunction with attached drawing below Case is described in detail:
Embodiment one,
In actual use, the port number of feeding network generally all follows 2n, therefore actual feeding network all may be used To illustrate that therefore, the present embodiment is illustrated by taking the simplest four ports feeding network of Ku wave bands as an example by four port networks.
Fig. 3 shows the basic structure of the four ports feeding network, as shown in the figure comprising the E-T work(of four ports Four polarizers for dividing device network and being connected to four ports.In figure, 1 is public port, and 2,3,4,5 be feeding network respectively Four output ports, output port 2,5 corresponds to two output ports of the same afterbody E-T power splitters respectively, exports Port 3,4 corresponds to two output ports with another afterbody E-T power splitters respectively.As shown in figure 3, output port 4,5 It is connect respectively there are one 90 ° of polarizers 7, output port 2,3 connects that there are one 90 ° of polarizers, 7,90 ° of polarizers 6 and 90 ° of polarization respectively Device 7 is the polarizer structure of complete mirror image, therefore size is completely the same.The structure of 90 ° of polarizers is as shown in figure 4, due to it For the prior art, therefore content no longer is explained in detail to it and is described further.Each port phase of the four ports feeding network responds As shown in figure 5, can be seen that according to Fig. 5, the phase of each port output signal is consistent.Due to wherein using E-T power splitters Network along the broadside subdivision of waveguide is then two parts are composed (preferably along the faces E center line subdivision) in actual processing, because The section gap in this most region can effectively avoid the generation of leakage all in the faces E.
Embodiment two,
The present embodiment illustrates still by taking four port feeding networks as an example.Fig. 6 shows the four ports feeding network Basic structure comprising the E-T power divider networks of four ports and four polarizers for being connected to four ports.In figure, 1 is public port, and 2,3,4,5 be four output ports of feeding network respectively, and output port 2,3 corresponds to same last respectively Two output ports of level-one E-T power splitters, output port 4,5 are corresponded to the two of another afterbody E-T power splitters respectively A output port.As shown in fig. 6, output port 3,5 is connect respectively there are one 90 ° of polarizers 7, output port 2,4 is connected to one respectively 7,90 ° of polarizers 6 of a 90 ° of polarizers and 90 ° of polarizers 7 are the polarizer structures of complete mirror image, therefore size is completely the same.
As shown in fig. 7~fig. 9, polarizer and waveguide turning structure are integrated for the structure of 90 ° of polarizers in the present embodiment For an entirety.As shown in fig. 7~fig. 9, which includes input rectangular waveguide 8, exports rectangular waveguide 9, respectively as The input port and output port of 90 ° of polarizers, input rectangular waveguide 8 are connected with the output port of E-T power splitters;Output Rectangular waveguide 9 is connected with the radiating element of antenna, on feed to the radiating element of antenna.Input hanging down for the faces E of rectangular waveguide 8 The facets such as straight and the perpendicular bisected face in the faces H of output rectangular waveguide 9 are coplanar;Input rectangular waveguide 8 passes sequentially through a Step-edge Junction Structure 10 and a butterfly structure 11 are connect with output rectangular waveguide 9;The step structure 10 is for matching echo;The butterfly knot Structure 11 is for reversing electromagnetic waveguide polarization direction, and the cuboid waveguide for being mutually perpendicular to and being partially overlapped by two forms, the butterfly The 1/4 of wavelength corresponding to the height of shape structure 11 substantially working frequency, the E of butterfly structure bottom surface 12 and input rectangular waveguide 8 The perpendicular bisected face in face overlaps, and when making processes along the faces E center line subdivision, then does not cut off waveguide surface electric current, polarizer is not present Leakage.
Each port phase response of the four ports feeding network is as shown in Figure 10, can be seen that according to Figure 10, each port output The phase of signal is consistent.Due to wherein using E-T power divider networks, it is along the broadside subdivision of waveguide in actual processing Then two parts are composed, therefore the section gap in most region is all in the faces E, thus can effectively avoid the production of leakage It is raw.
It these are only two specific embodiments, it is actually various existing or have 90 ° of polarizers are used equally for this practicality New technique scheme, to realize above-mentioned technique effect.
Since the utility model feed network for waveguide effectively inhibits leakage problem, inserting for entire feeding network is reduced Damage, and the processing difficulty of feeding network is reduced, waveguide array antenna is used it for, antenna on the one hand can be effectively improved On the other hand performance can reduce the cost of implementation of entire antenna system.
