Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a circularly polarized electromagnetic wave radiator. It preferably operates in the microwave domain and can be used as a primary source illuminating a focusing optical system or as a radiating element of an array antenna.
  • such a wave radiator is constituted by two complementary sources nested one inside the other.
  • the two sources are a dipole 1 photogaved on a dielectric plate 2 placed in the median longitudinal plane * T ' of a waveguide 3 (with rectangular carrying section) and two waveguides 4 and 5, produced from the waveguide 3 divided into two guides of reduced height, by the plate 2.
  • These two guides 4 and 5 are excited by plungers 6, connected to a supply line 7 while the dipole 1 is connected to its supply line 8 by a balun 9.
  • the circularly polarized electromagnetic wave radiator consists of by a wave radiator.
  • circularly polarized electromagnetic consisting of a waveguide 8 and a dipole 9, characterized in that the dipole is excited directly by the waveguide and is such that the two supply lines 11 of its strands 13 are arranged in the extension of the two larger dimensions of the guide 8 and are constituted by metal tongues symmetrical with respect to the longitudinal axis of symmetry ( ⁇ ) of the guide and that its two strands 13 are themselves formed by tongues metal symmetrical with respect to the axis ( ⁇ ), placed perpendicular to the supply lines 11 and in contact with them, a reflective element 14 placed on the periphery of the radiating opening 10 of the guide 8 being associated with them.
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 represent two nonlimiting examples of a circularly polarized wave radiator.
  • This phase quadrature is performed when the two phase centers of the two complementary antennas are combined.
  • FIG. 2 represents an exemplary embodiment of a circular polarized wave radiator made up of two complementary sources, a waveguide 8 and a dipole 9, each emitting a wave with rectilinear polarization.
  • the supply lines 11 of the strands of the dipole 9, each consisting of a metal tab, are located in the extension of the two long sides 12 of the guide, symmetrically with respect to to the longitudinal axis ( ⁇ of symmetry of the guide.
  • the strands 13 of the dipole consist of metal strips perpendicular to the supply lines 11 in contact with them, located in the plane of the long sides of the waveguide.
  • the dimensions lines 11 help the impedance matching between the dipole and the waveguide.
  • the dipole 9 is excited directly by the waveguide 8 and the coincidence of the two phase centers of these sources is made possible by the presence of a metal edge 14, placed around the periphery of the radiating opening 10 of the guide and perpendicular to the four sides of this guide.
  • a metal edge 14 placed around the periphery of the radiating opening 10 of the guide and perpendicular to the four sides of this guide.
  • the phase center of the waveguide 8 is in the plane of its radiating opening 10 and the phase center of the dipole 9 provided with the reflective element constituted by the metal edge. 14 is in the plane thereof, so indeed in the plane of the opening of the guide.
  • the waveguide 15 is constituted by a parallelepipedal block 16 of dielectric material, metallized on its four faces parallel to the longitudinal axis of symmetry ⁇ , over a length The inferior to the length L of the dielectric block itself.
  • the supply lines 17 of the strands 18 of the dipole 19 are metal tabs, deposited by photogavure on the dielectric block 16, in the extension of the two larger faces of the waveguide.
  • the strands 18 of the dipole they are formed by the extension of the tongues constituting the lines, but arranged perpendicular to them.
  • the dimensions of the waveguide 15 are such that the level of the polarization of the wave emitted by the latter is equal to that of the polarization of the wave emitted by the dipole 19. Unlike FIG. 2, where the transition between the supply lines and the strands of the dipole is brutal, in Figure 3 the transition takes place very gradually.
  • the reflective element 20, associated with the dipole is constituted by a metallic periphery, placed at 90 ° to the sides of the waveguide and bonded to the metallization of the latter.
  • the strands of the dipole may have a length equal to a quarter or a half or to the wavelength at the central frequency of the operating band of this dipole.
  • the rectangular section waveguide has the internal dimensions. 72.13mm x 28.4mm; the radiating element is constituted by metal edges 22mm wide placed perpendicular to the two larger faces of the guide and 10mm wide for those placed perpendicular to the other two faces.
  • the supply lines and the strands of the dipole are made of brass, 2 mm thick, their respective lengths being close to a quarter and a half wavelength at the central frequency of the operating band of the dipole.
  • the cross section of the waveguide constituting the wave radiator may be as rectangular as square or circular, provided that the mode of propagation in the guide is the fundamental mode.
