Abstract
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Hohlleiter mit Primärstrahler gemäss dem Oberbegriff des unabhängigen Patentanspruchs 1.The present invention relates to a waveguide with a primary radiator according to the preamble of
Bei Satelliten-Fernsehen werden von den Satelliten aus zirkular polarisierte Wellen abgestrahlt. Je nach Staat oder Sendeunternehmen sind diese Wellen rechts- oder linksdrehend. Empfangsseitig muss somit die Möglichkeit geschaffen werden, beide Arten mit derselben Antenne empfangen zu können. Weil schliesslich auch die Möglichkeit geschaffen werden muss, dass jedermann direkt empfangen kann, ohne auf ein Kabelnetz angewiesen zu sein, müssen solche Antennen auch seriell bei geringen Kosten herstellbar sein.In satellite television, circularly polarized waves are emitted from the satellites. Depending on the state or broadcasting company, these waves are clockwise or counterclockwise. On the reception side, it must therefore be possible to receive both types with the same antenna. Finally, because the possibility must also be created that everyone can receive directly without having to rely on a cable network, such antennas must also be able to be produced serially at low costs.
Es ist deshalb eine Aufgabe der Erfindung, einen solchen Primärleiter zu schaffen, mit dem zirkular polarisierte Wellen bei Satelliten-Funk direkt empfangen werden können.It is therefore an object of the invention to provide such a primary conductor with which circularly polarized waves can be received directly in satellite radio.
Erfindungsgemäss wird dies mit einem Hohlleiter mit den Merkmalen im kennzeichnenden Teil des unabhängigen Patentanspruchs erreicht. In den abhängigen Patentansprüchen sind besonders vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen gekennzeichnet.According to the invention, this is achieved with a waveguide with the features in the characterizing part of the independent claim. Particularly advantageous embodiments are characterized in the dependent claims.
Nachfolgend werden Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung anhand der Zeichnung beschrieben. Es zeigen:
- Fig. 1 einen Primärleiter in Schnittansicht nach der Schnittlinie I-I in Fig. 2,
- Fig. 2 den Primärleiter gemäss Fig. 1 in Schnittansicht nach der Schnittlinie II-II in Fig. 1,
- Fig. 3A und 3B je eine Schnittansicht des Primärleiters von der Schnittstelle der Schnittlinie III-III in Fig. 1 aus betrachtet zur Darstellung von zwei Filtertypen,
- Fig. 4A und 4B je eine Schnittansicht des Primärleiters von der Schnittstelle der Schnittlinie IV-IV in Fig. 1 aus betrachtet, zur Darstellung von zwei Auskopplungsarten, und
- Fig. 5 einen Ausschnitt des Primärleiters nach Fig. 1 mit einer zweiten Ausführungsform des Strahlers.
- 1 shows a primary conductor in a sectional view along the section line II in FIG. 2,
- 2 shows the primary conductor according to FIG. 1 in a sectional view along the section line II-II in FIG. 1,
- 3A and 3B are each a sectional view of the primary conductor viewed from the interface of section line III-III in FIG. 1 to show two filter types,
- 4A and 4B each a sectional view of the primary conductor from the interface of the section line IV-IV in Fig. 1st viewed from, to represent two decoupling types, and
- 5 shows a detail of the primary conductor according to FIG. 1 with a second embodiment of the radiator.
Der Primärleiter (aus dem englischen Sprachgebrauch hergeleitet auch Primärfeed genannt) gemäss Fig. 1 und 2 umfasst einen Auskopplungsteil A, einen Filterteil F, einen Polarisatorteil P, einen Phasenkorrekturteil K und einen Strahlerteil S. Alle diese Teile sind in einem geraden quadratischen Hohlleiter 10 angeordnet. Dieser Hohlleiter 10 ist durch ein Septum 11 aus einem Träger mit metallischer Oberfläche oder einem Metallblech gebildet und teilt den quadratischen Hohlleiter 16 in zwei identische rechteckige Hohlleiter 21, 22. Das Septum 11 ist an seinem gegen den Strahler 12 gerichteten Ende 13 abgestuft ausgebildet, wie Fig. 2 deutlich zeigt.1 and 2 comprises a decoupling part A, a filter part F, a polarizer part P, a phase correction part K and a radiator part S. All these parts are arranged in a straight
Der Auskopplungsteil A ist gemäss Fig. 1 und 4A als Hohlleiter-Auskopplung ausgebildet, und weist für jeden der beiden rechteckigen Hohlleiter 21, 22 je einen Krümmer 23, 24 für die E-Winkel der Hohlleiter 21, 22 auf.1 and 4A is designed as a waveguide outcoupling, and has a
Der Filterteil F kann entweder mit kapazitiven Koppelelementen gemäss Fig. 1 und 3A oder mit induktiven Koppelelementen gemäss Fig. 3B versehen sein. In diesem Ausführungsbeispiel sind vier Filterstufen vorgesehen, die je durch Koppelelemente voneinander getrennt sind. Die induktiven Koppelelemente nach Fig. 3 sind bekanntlich metallische Trennwände 25, 26, deren Stirnkanten 27, 28 einen Abstand zu der durch das Septum 11.gebildeten Wand aufweisen. Die kapazitiven Koppelelemente gemäss Fig. 3B sind ebenfalls metallische Trennwände 29, 30 bzw. 29', 30', deren Stirnkanten 31, 32, 31', 32' jeweils am Septum 11 anliegen, aber die mittig in den beiden Hohlleitern 21, 22 eine Spaltöffnung 33, 33' bestimmen.The filter part F can either use
Als Auskopplungen im Auskopplungsteil A können Hohlleiterauskopplungen gemäss Fig. 1 und 4A verwendet sein oder.es können Koaxialanschlussstecker 40, 41 gemäss Fig. 4B anstelle der Schlitzöffnungen 42, 43 in die geschlossenen Wände der Hohlleiter 21, 22 eingesetzt werden.1 and 4A can be used as outcouplings in the outcoupling part A or
Während in Fig. 1 und 2 ein Strahler 12 mit beidseits kegelförmiger Ausbildung vorgesehen ist, könnte auch gemäss Fig. 5 nur aussenseitig eine kegelförmige Spitze und innenseitig eine stufig ausgebildete Auskopplung vorgesehen sein.While in FIGS. 1 and 2 a
Das Septum 11 ist zwischen den Hohlleiterwänden des quadratischen Hohlleiters 10 in bekannter Weise stufig ausgebildet. Zur Kompensation der Phasenlage der beiden polarisierten Wellen ist ein Kompensator K vorgesehen.The
Ein solcher Kompensator kann gemäss Fig. 2 eine einfache Verengung im Hohlleiter in den senkrecht zur Ebene des Septums angeordneten Wänden sein. In einer zweiten möglichen Ausbildungsform könnten beidseits je ein plattenförmiges Element aus einem dielektrischen Material eingesetzt sein. Ein solches Element hat beispielsweise Abmessungen von 14 x 16 mm und die senkrecht zum Septum verlaufende mittelsenkrechte Ebene dieser Elemente sollte dann einen Abstand von etwa 15 mm von der Vorderkante der vordersten Stufe des Septums 11 haben. Mit einem dielektrischen Material, das eine Dielektrizitätskonstante Er= 2,2 hat, kann eine Phasenkorrektur von etwa 8° erreicht werden, um damit die Phasenwinkel der TE10 Mode Welle und der TE01 Mode Welle auf 90° einzustellen.According to FIG. 2, such a compensator can be a simple constriction in the waveguide in the walls arranged perpendicular to the plane of the septum. In a second possible embodiment, a plate-shaped element made of a dielectric material could be used on both sides. Such an element has dimensions of 14 x 16 mm, for example, and the perpendicular perpendicular plane of these elements, which is perpendicular to the septum, should then be at a distance of approximately 15 mm from the front edge of the foremost step of the
Ein solcher Primärfeed lässt sich sehr kostengünstig in Spritzgusstechnik herstellen. Die beiden identischen Schalen müssen nach dem Einsetzen des Septums miteinander verbunden werden, beispielsweise durch Hartlöten.Such a primary feed can be produced very inexpensively using injection molding technology. The two identical shells must be connected to each other after the septum has been inserted, for example by brazing.
Anstelle der rein kapazitiven oder induktiven Koppelelemente können auch gemischte kapazitive oder induktive Koppelelemente vorgesehen sein.Instead of the purely capacitive or inductive coupling elements, mixed capacitive or inductive coupling elements can also be provided.
