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 photo-etched on a dielectric plate 2 placed in the median longitudinal plane ⁇ of a waveguide 3 (with rectangular carrying section) and two waveguides 4 and 5, produced at starting 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 object of the present invention is to produce a circularly polarized electromagnetic wave radiator, avoiding the cited drawbacks of the prior art.
- Document FR-A-2 452 804 also describes a radiating dipole excited by an extra-flat waveguide, having the advantage of a very small footprint, appreciable in particular in the production of an antenna with electronic scanning.
- the aim of this document is not to produce a source radiating a circular wave from two sources each radiating a rectilinear wave but to produce a radiating dipole alone.
- the shape of the radiation diagram, in the E plane, of this radiating element is in particular close to that given by a conventional dipole of the half-wave type supplied by a two-wire line.
- the waveguide is extra-flat to considerably reduce the size of the module thus formed but must not radiate a wave by itself.
- the present invention relates to a circularly polarized electromagnetic wave radiator, as defined in the claims.
- 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 shows an 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 constituted by a metal tab, are located in the extension of the two long sides of the guide, symmetrically with respect to the longitudinal axis A of symmetry of the guide.
- the strands 13 of the dipole are constituted by 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 of the 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 of the latter. Ci, so well in the plane of the opening of the guide.
- the waveguide 15 is constituted by a parallelepipedic block 16 of dielectric material, metallized on its four faces parallel to the longitudinal axis of symmetry A ′, over a length L ′ less than the length L of the dielectric block itself even.
- the supply lines 17 of the strands 18 of the dipole 19 are metal tabs, deposited by photoengraving on the dielectric block 16, in the extension of the two larger faces of the waveguide.
- the strands 18 of the dipole they are constituted by the extension of the tongues constituting the supply lines, but arranged perpendicularly to these.
- 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 in FIG. 2, where the transition between the supply lines and the strands of the dipole is abrupt, in FIG. 3 the transition is very gradual.
- 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, 15 mm x 28.4 mm; the radiating element is constituted by metal edges 22 mm wide placed perpendicular to the two largest faces of the guide and 10 mm 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 can be both rectangular and square, provided that the propagation mode in the guide is the fundamental mode.
