Description
[technical field]
The utility model relates to a kind of beam-forming network, in particular for the beam-forming network of a kind of continuously variable differential phase of cell mobile communication systems antenna for base station.
[technical background]
Antenna for base station is the critical component of digital cellular mobile communication systems.Antenna for base station carries out the wireless signal covering to the cellular cell (abbreviation service district) of present position; Simultaneously to other air interference (abbreviation co-channel interference) with sub-district (abbreviation co-frequency cell) of same operating frequency suppresses from a distant place.The method that realizes above-mentioned functions is reasonably to adjust the beam position of antenna for base station elevation radiation patytern, makes it point to the angle and does suitable inclination (also claiming downwards bevel beam) down in the horizontal line direction.Because in the practical application scene of many complexity, the scope that signal covers and the situation of co-channel interference are constantly changing, therefore the angle (also claiming beam scanning) of downwards bevel beam also needs in time frequent variation and the locational continuous variation at the angle, and this antenna is called continuously adjustable wave beam electrical down-tilting antenna for base station.
The realization principle of continuous adjustable wave beam electrical down-tilting antenna for base station is from well-known Phased Array Radar Antenna beam scanning principle.In the prior art, at United States Patent (USP) (US6,611,230) be described in detail this implementation procedure in " Phased arrayantenna having phase shifters with laterally spaced phase shift bodies ", seen also theory diagram shown in Figure 1.
In Fig. 1, Phased Array Radar Antenna 39 (or continuously adjustable wave beam electrical down-tilting antenna for base station) mainly is made up of antenna radiation unit array 31 and beam-forming network 37.Aerial array 31 by etc. physical separation n radiating element 32a, 32b, 32c ..., 32n forms; Beam-forming network 37 by phase shifter 34a, the 34b of a power splitter that is divided into n (abbreviation when being in emission state, full name are the synthetic and distribution network of power) and n variable phase, 34c ..., 34n forms.When n phase shifter 34a, 34b, 34c ..., 34n phase place output be Φ according to this
0, Φ
0+ Δ, Φ
0+ 2 Δs ..., Φ
0+ (n-1) during Δ (promptly satisfy differential phase relation), the beam position of directional diagram produces a physical angle skew (scan or have a down dip) amount θ, and its pass is: Δ=(2 π d/ λ) sin θ.Wherein d is that interval, the λ of adjacent radiation unit are operation wavelength, Φ
0Be the intrinsic initial phase of each element transmission channel, it can realize each element transmission channel Φ mutually by joining of transmission line (as cable)
0Unanimity.Obviously, angle of declination θ is only relevant with the differential phase Δ.Realize the continuous variable of equal difference branch phase delta (Δ can just can be born) and realization Δ, then angle of declination θ is adjustable continuously.The continuous variation of differential phase Δ is finished by beam-controller 38.
Therefore, beam-forming network 37 is keys that wave beam electrical down-tilting antenna for base station is realized.
Regrettably the phase shifter 34 that adopts in beam-forming network 37 of Phased Array Radar Antenna is digital phase shifters of quantification formula, and it involves great expense, and corresponding beam-controller 38 is also complicated and expensive; The digital phase shifter that quantizes formula simultaneously can bring the sensing deviation of downwards bevel beam angle and can not continuously change the angle that has a down dip, back one shortcoming is to remedy by the combination of thousands of phase shifters and antenna radiation unit and the correction of algorithm in phased array antenna, and for the antenna for base station that several radiating elements are only arranged, error in pointing is difficult to remedy.
For the beam-forming network 37 of realizing Fig. 1, but at first need a kind of cheapness and phase place continually varying phase shifter, in the prior art, United States Patent (USP) (US2 in nineteen fifty, 502,359) but in a kind of like this phase place continually varying phase shifter has been proposed, as shown in Figure 2.The section perspective view of looking along the 3-3 direction among Fig. 2 as shown in Figure 3.
Referring to Fig. 2 and Fig. 3: " U " type transmission line is formed by 11,12,13,14,15, wherein adopts 11,12 of hollow metal cylinder structure to be standing part, and the left end of the two links to each other with two coaxial line joints 24 on metallic cavity 19 sidewalls respectively; Adopt " U " molded lines 14,13,15 of metal solid cylinder structure to insert respectively in the 11 and 12 right-hand member hollow bodies.By a machine driving bar 21, interlock body 16 and 17 and 18, and then promote 14,13,15 side-to-side movements, wherein 17,18 is non-conductive insulating part.Because the continuous variation of the total length of 11,14,13,15,12 " U " type transmission lines of forming causes the phase place of transmission signals between two coaxial line joints 24 corresponding continuous the variation to occur, has promptly realized phase shift function.
One of shortcoming of above-mentioned phase shifter is: in use repeatedly, be difficult to guarantee the transmission line 11 fixed or 12 with removable transmission line 14,13,15 between good the contact, and this non-mode that is fastenedly connected between two metals spark phenomenon may occur under the high power situation, is difficult to simultaneously avoid because the passive intermodulation product that bad contact causes.
Two of the shortcoming of above-mentioned phase shifter is: columned transmission line 11,14,13,15,12 is in order to satisfy certain impedance operator, and the gauge H of corresponding cavity 19 is bigger.
Three of the shortcoming of above-mentioned phase shifter is: when phase shifter is applied to similar continuously adjustable wave beam electrical down-tilting antenna for base station, usually need adopt a plurality of phase shifters integrated simultaneously, so, because the relation of topology layout, columned transmission line 11 and 12 cavity ring are not easy to machining, adopt die production also to be not easy to releasing process.

Referring to Fig. 4, input signal is decomposed into 54b and 54c two tunnel from port 51 through the 54a arm of the power splitter 54 of one-to-two, more respectively through excessive " U " type phase shifter 55 and 56, is connected to two inputs 58 and 59 of 3dB branch line directional coupler 57., layout in opposite directions a pair of " U " type phase shifter 55 and 56 identical when structure links when mobile in the same direction, a phase shifter will produce positive differential phase, another phase shifter will produce negative differential phase, so, according to well-known microwave network principle, finally will realize the continuous variation of power-division ratios, and respective phase is exported and is kept invariable at two outputs 52 and 53 of branch line directional coupler 57.As can be seen, use 2 " U " type phase shifters in this example, correspondingly 54b and 54c or 58 and 59 need whole processing, and cavity ring cross section is wherein obviously made troubles to processing.
In addition, electrical down-tilting antenna for base station for n path radiation antenna element composition, the continuous adjustable needs of realization wave beam are n-1 the beam-forming network that element of phase shifter is formed at least, and produce a series of differential phase Δs, 2 Δs ..., (n-1) Δ, so, if if, all will limit its practical application owing to it is complicated and expensive because the range of phase shift difference a plurality of phase shifter dimensional structures occur or adopts a plurality of complicated mechanical transmission devices.

Consult Fig. 7, described 6 external-connected ports 60,61,62,63,64,65 all are arranged on the shell of metallic cavity 108, are respectively the synthetic end of power 60, first distribution end 61, second distribution end 62, the 3rd distribution end 63, the 4th distribution end 64 and the 5th distribution end 65.
The synthetic end strip line 221 of preposition power splitter 71 is electrically connected to the synthetic end of power 60, the first distribution end 61, second distribution end 62, the 3rd distribution end 63, the 4th distribution end 64 and the 5th distribution end 65 by the outer, coaxial line and is electrically connected by outer, coaxial line and strip line 251,242,222,246,252 respectively.
Described insulating part 111 structure that is rectangle also can be other geometry.The right and left design of insulating part 111 has a plurality of outstanding anchor clamps 112 with bayonet, and anchor clamps 112 block each phase shifter 81,82 respectively, the removable transmission line 412 of each of 83,84 (referring to Fig. 5).
Described dielectric rod 110 penetrates and is connected to insulating part 111 by default on metallic cavity 108 sides handle hole 109, and dielectric rod 110 is preferably integrated so that operate reliably with insulating part 111.As shown in Figure 7, when dielectric rod 110 move left and right, drive insulating part 111 and move, so just drive the same moved further of removable transmission line 412 (referring to Fig. 5, down together) of each phase shifter 81,82,83,84.Suppose that dielectric rod 110 moves from left to right, the removable transmission line 412 that drives phase shifter 81 increases a length, correspondingly can produce a differential phase-Δ.Similarly, the removable transmission line that also drives phase shifter 83 increases a same length, correspondingly also produces a same differential phase-Δ.Simultaneously, the removable transmission line that drives phase shifter 82 and 84 shortens a same length respectively, and correspondingly phase shifter 82 and 84 removable transmission line also produce an opposite differential phase+Δ respectively.
So the transmission signals of the synthetic end of power 60 to first distribution end 61 produces the differential phase of-2 Δs through phase shifter 81 and 83.
The transmission signals of the synthetic end of power 60 to second distribution end 62 is through phase shifter 81, the differential phase of generation-Δ.
The transmission signals of the synthetic end of power 60 to the 3rd distribution end 63 does not pass through phase shifter, and the differential phase of generation is 0.
The transmission signals of the synthetic end of power 60 to the 4th distribution end 64 is through phase shifter 82, the differential phase of generation+Δ.
The transmission signals of the synthetic end of power 60 to the 5th distribution end 65 produces the differential phase of+2 Δs through phase shifter 82 and 84.
So, the differential phase of 5 power division ends 61,62,63,64,65 be followed successively by-2 Δs ,-Δ, 0 ,+Δ ,+2 Δs, when 5 power division ends are connected to the antenna for base station of 5 or 10 (wherein every adjacent 2 unit insert as a submatrix is in parallel) antenna radiation units compositions respectively, move media bar 110, antenna pattern beam position promptly produce continuous sweep (or downwards bevel beam).
The power splitter group 71,72,73,74 of 4 simple power splitter compositions also can make to obtain the output signal that power levels are constant amplitude or non-constant amplitude in 5 distribution end 61,62,63,64,65 according to the concrete power-division ratios of Demand Design among Fig. 7.

See also Figure 10, the improvements of relative first embodiment of second embodiment are: the synthetic end strip line of main power splitter 72 221 directly is electrically connected by the coaxial cord realization with the synthetic end 601 of power, preposition power splitter is thrown aside, correspondingly, only surplus 4 of power division ports are respectively 61,62,64,65.So, description according to above-mentioned first embodiment, the differential phase that can obtain 601 to 4 power division ends 61,62,64,65 of the synthetic end of power similarly be followed successively by-2 Δs ,-Δ ,+Δ ,+2 Δs, the preposition power splitter of default another 71 is (not shown outside the bond cavity 108, can consult Fig. 7) the 0 differential phase output of power division end, can obtain equally 5 differential phases be followed successively by-2 Δs ,-Δ, 0 ,+Δ ,+the phase shift output of 2 Δs.So, the original preposition power splitter 71 (referring to Fig. 7) in metallic cavity 108 inside among first embodiment, owing to being asymmetric and not waiting the merit separation structure, it not only is subject to volume but also be subject to essential stripline design scheme, and original preposition power splitter 71 (referring to Fig. 7) can be shifted to after being preset in outside the metallic cavity 108 in a second embodiment, then can adopt unrestricted multiple scheme to give flexible design.
Originally execute example and can be applicable to the antenna for base station that 5 or 10 (wherein every adjacent 2 unit insert as a submatrix is in parallel) antenna radiation units are formed.
Please consult Figure 11 again, it is the 3rd embodiment of the present utility model, and present embodiment is the remodeling of second embodiment and first embodiment, and it produces 4 differential phase outputs.It is with the different of second embodiment: among the 3rd embodiment of Figure 11, phase shifter 82 is removed, and the strip line 225 synthetic end strip lines 244 direct and from power splitter 74 of the right side output of main power splitter 72 interconnect.So, because the effect of 3 phase shifters 81,83,84 among Figure 11, from the differential phase output of 60 to 4 power division ends 66,67,68,69 of the synthetic end of power will be followed successively by-2 Δs ,-Δ, 0 ,+Δ.Obviously, 4 tunnel phase places are exported the relation of difference such as still satisfying.
The beam-forming network of the described continuously variable differential phase of the 3rd embodiment can be applicable to the antenna for base station that 4 or 8 (wherein every adjacent 2 unit insert as a submatrix is in parallel) antenna radiation units are formed.
By that analogy, the utility model also can be expanded according to equal principle.
