Definitions
- the invention relates to a broadband.
- Such a polarization switch is known from DE-OS 33 45 689.
- this known polarizing switch has a relatively large overall length and is also not structurally designed so that it can be used with less complex manufacturing methods, e.g. with simple numerically controlled milling machines.
- the object of the invention is to provide a very broadband polarizing switch of the type mentioned, but which is designed so that it can be produced inexpensively using simple methods and can be designed to be particularly small in terms of its transverse dimensions and overall length.
- this object is achieved in that in the second waveguide arm provided with a right-angled E-bend is anchored in its transition zone to the waveguide guiding the two orthogonal polarizations, a central plate extending over its entire broad side dimension, which is approximately half as wide as its narrow side dimension and thus divides it fork-like into two symmetrical arms in this transition zone, taking into account an exact constant maintenance of the wave resistances.
- the polarization switch according to the invention can be formed in two parts with the exception of the access to the second waveguide arm, which has a rectangular cross-section, the mirror image being the same, the plane of the game being formed by the cross-current-free central plane of the two partial arms of the waveguide fork of the first waveguide arm.
- These two parts can be made by milling control in a single plane.
- An essential commercial value for the polarizing filter according to the invention can thus be seen in the fact that it consists of only two main parts which are largely mirror-like and which can be produced very inexpensively using simple numerically controlled automatic milling machines.
- the in Figures 1 and 2 in top or Side view broadband polarization switch has a first waveguide arm 1 rectangular cross-section with the side lengths a and b1.
- the distance l K is selected so that the other rectangular waveguide arm 2 has space between the inner broad side walls of the waveguide fork formed by the two partial arms 20 and 21.
- the regions of the two partial arms 20 and 21 running parallel to one another are then angled mirror-symmetrically to the longitudinal axis of the polarization switch by a further E-bend 5 or 5 ⁇ .
- the penetration begins with the waveguide arm 2. From the access of the waveguide arm 1 to these cross sections 3, 3 ⁇ , the waveguide fork is exactly homogeneous in terms of the wave resistance.
- the partial arms 20 and 21 open into a coaxial waveguide 4 consisting of an inner conductor 10 with a circular cross section and an outer conductor 11 with a round cross section, the characteristic impedance of which is matched to the characteristic impedance of the two partial arms 20 and 21 connected in series.
- the inhomogeneous zone with respect to the wave resistance is thus reduced to a very short area between the cross sections 3, 3 ⁇ on the one hand and 6 on the other hand with this polarization switch, which considerably facilitates adaptation work.
- the second waveguide arm 2 of rectangular cross-section is angled in the longitudinal direction with a normal profile E-bend 12, the E-bend 12 being formed with a 90 ° corner projection 7 instead of with an inclined outside corner to facilitate production. Furthermore, the waveguide arm 2 with a central plate 8, the entire broad side dimension a is sufficient and which has a thickness dimension of approximately b 1/2, divided into two partial arms 14 and 15, the wave resistances being kept exactly constant.
- the adjustment of the lateral offset is carried out by optimizing the distance b ⁇ between the front end face 17 of the middle plate 8 and the level of a gradation 16.
- the reactance at the transition point 6 to the wave resistance adapted, from the inner conductor 10 and the outer conductor 11 existing coaxial waveguide 4 is smaller and therefore easier to compensate.
- the inner conductor 10 is fastened to the rear face 18 of the plate 8, which is firmly anchored in the narrow side walls of the waveguide arm 2 by means of two surfaces 9, 9 ⁇ . This type of attachment and mounting of an inner conductor can also be used to transfer many other known polarization switches.
- the polarization switch according to the invention is divided by the parting plane 13 into two mirror-symmetrical parts with the exception of the switch access on the waveguide arm 2, which parts can be produced by milling control in a single plane.
- the coaxial waveguide 4 with the inner conductor 10 and the outer conductor 11 according to the cross section 6 can be passed along in a longitudinally homogeneous manner to a subsequent consumer, for example a horn antenna. If, on the other hand, the inner conductor 10 is to disappear, this can be accomplished with a steady or stepped transition will.
- a two-stage, rotationally symmetrical quarter-wave transformer with a stepped inner layer 19 and an oppositely stepped outer conductor 25 (constant H11 cut-off frequency, frequency-independent wave resistance levels) is shown in dashed lines. It is also possible to push the transformer further into the bifurcation zone of the polarization switch - in Figures 1 and 2 - so that only the lowest transformer stage is designed as a coaxial waveguide.
- the inner conductor 10 By using the inner conductor 10, it is possible to reduce or completely eliminate the disturbing wave resistance jumps along the two passages of the polarization switch. While the line wave resistances of the rectangular polarizing waveguide arms 1 and 2 with their aspect ratios a ⁇ 2b1 are fixed, the line wave resistance of the round waveguide 11 is not fixed and therefore freely selectable. This opens up the possibility of lowering the line wave resistance of the round waveguide 11 and thus approximating the line wave resistance of the rectangular waveguide arms 1 and 2. Ideal adaptation conditions prevail when the line wave resistances of the round waveguide 11 are broadband matched to those of the rectangular waveguide arms 1 and 2.
- This adjustment of the wave resistances is achieved over very large bandwidths if the following two conditions are met, namely on the one hand the adjustment of the cross-sectional factors in the wave resistance equations of the waveguides to be matched to one another and on the other hand the adjustment of the cut-off frequencies of the wave types to be merged, with the remaining reactance jumps then can be adapted in the waveguides by means of transformation measures requiring only short overall lengths. Using this principle results in a significantly increased range of reflection poor.
- the inner conductor 10 in addition to the desired reduction in wave resistance, a substantial expansion of the uniqueness range of the coaxial waveguide 4 is also achieved.
- other cross-sectional shapes of the inner conductor 10 are possible, e.g. a cross-shaped or a square cross-section.
- the inner conductor 10 causes very little additional losses and brings a number of further advantages.
- the inner conductor 10, which is extended beyond the polarization switch, is suitable for improving the behavior of a consumer connected to the polarization switch, e.g. the bandwidth of the low reflection of a grooved horn and its cross-polarization properties compared to horn feeding.
- the inner conductor 10 can end in the horn neck, in the groove area or outside the horn aperture in a stepped, stepped or abrupt manner. Furthermore, space can be created in a hollow inner conductor 10 for waves of the same or different type with the same or different frequency as those waves already present outside the inner conductor 10.
- the interior of the inner conductor 10 can be provided in a suitable manner with conductive material or with dielectric. Coupling devices for waves can also be arranged in the interior of the inner conductor 10 and / or near its surface, which are coupled from the space outside the inner conductor 10 into its interior and vice versa.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einebreitbandige. Polarisationsweiche für Mikrowellen mit einem einen zwei orthogonal lineare Polarisationen führenden Wellenleiter, von dem an sich gegenüberleigenden Stellen unter einem spitzen Winkel zwei eine symmetrische Hohlleitergabel bildende Teilarme abgezweigt sind, die über jeweils einen ersten E-Knick, jeweils einen Bereich mit zueinander parallel verlaufender Führung, jeweils einen zweiten E-Knick und eine Serienverzweigung in einen ersten, hinsichtlich seiner Längsachse mit dem die beiden orthogonalen Polarisationen führenden Wellenleiter fluchtenden Hohleiterarm rechteckförmigen Querschnitts übergeführt sind, und von dem in Axialrichtung ein zweiter Hohlleiterarm ausgeht, der mit rechteckförmigem Querschnitt über einen E-Knick seitlich aus dem Raum zwischen den beiden Teilarmen herausgeführt ist.The invention relates to a broadband. Polarization switch for microwaves with a waveguide that carries two orthogonally linear polarizations, from which two arms that form a symmetrical waveguide fork are branched off at opposite points at an acute angle, each of which has a first E-bend, an area with a parallel guide, in each case a second E-bend and a series branching into a first, with respect to its longitudinal axis with the waveguide aligning the two orthogonal polarizations aligned waveguide arm rectangular cross-section are transferred, and from which a second waveguide arm extends in the axial direction, which has a rectangular cross-section over an E-bend is led out laterally from the space between the two arms.
Eine derartige Polarisationsweiche ist aus der DE-OS 33 45 689 bekannt. Diese bekannte Polarisationsweiche hat jedoch eine verhältnismäßig große Baulänge und ist auch konstruktiv nicht so ausgelegt, daß sie sich mit wenig aufwendigen Herstellungsmethoden, z.B. mit einfachen numerisch gesteuerten Fräsautomaten, produzieren läßt.Such a polarization switch is known from DE-OS 33 45 689. However, this known polarizing switch has a relatively large overall length and is also not structurally designed so that it can be used with less complex manufacturing methods, e.g. with simple numerically controlled milling machines.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine sehr breitbandig arbeitende Polarisationsweiche der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, die aber so gestaltet ist, daß sie mit einfachen Methoden kostengüngstig herstellen läßt und dabei hinsichtlich ihrer Querabmessungen und Baulänge besonders klein ausgelegt werden kann.The object of the invention is to provide a very broadband polarizing switch of the type mentioned, but which is designed so that it can be produced inexpensively using simple methods and can be designed to be particularly small in terms of its transverse dimensions and overall length.
Gemäß der Erfindung wird diese Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, daß in dem mit einem rechwinkligen E-Knick versehenen zweiten Hohlleiterarm in seiner Übergangzone zum die beiden orthogonalen Polarisationen führenden Wellenleiter eine über seine gesamte Breitseitenabmessung reichende Mittelplatte verankert ist, die etwa halb so breit wie seine Schmalseitenabmessung ist und ihn somit in dieser Übergangszone gabelartig in zwei symmetrische Teilarme unter Berücksichtigung einer genauen Konstanthaltung der Wellenwiderstände aufteilt.According to the invention, this object is achieved in that in the second waveguide arm provided with a right-angled E-bend is anchored in its transition zone to the waveguide guiding the two orthogonal polarizations, a central plate extending over its entire broad side dimension, which is approximately half as wide as its narrow side dimension and thus divides it fork-like into two symmetrical arms in this transition zone, taking into account an exact constant maintenance of the wave resistances.
Die Polarisationsweiche nach der Erfindung läßt sich in zwei mit Ausnahme des Zugangs des zweiten, einen Rechteckquerschnitt aufweisenden Hohlleiterarms spiegelbildlich gleichen Teilen ausbilden, wobei die Spielgelebene durch die querstromfreie Mittelbene der beiden Teilarme der Hohlleitergabel des ersten Hohlleiterarms gebildet wird. Diese beiden Teile können durch Fräsersteuerung in einer einzigen Ebene hergestellt werden. Für die Polarisationsweiche nach der Erfindung kann somit ein wesentlicher kommerzieller Wert darin gesehen werden, daß sie aus nur zwei, weitgehend spiegelgleichen Hauptteilen besteht, die mit einfachen numerisch gesteuerten Fräsautomaten sehr kostengünstig herzustellen sind.The polarization switch according to the invention can be formed in two parts with the exception of the access to the second waveguide arm, which has a rectangular cross-section, the mirror image being the same, the plane of the game being formed by the cross-current-free central plane of the two partial arms of the waveguide fork of the first waveguide arm. These two parts can be made by milling control in a single plane. An essential commercial value for the polarizing filter according to the invention can thus be seen in the fact that it consists of only two main parts which are largely mirror-like and which can be produced very inexpensively using simple numerically controlled automatic milling machines.
Vorteilhafte und zweckmäßige Weiterbildungen sowie Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen beschrieben.Advantageous and expedient developments and refinements of the invention are described in the subclaims.
Im folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand eines in zwei Figuren dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels erläutert. Es zeigen jeweils in einer Schnittdarstellung:
- FIG 1 eine Breitband-Polarisationsweiche nach der Erfindung in Draufsicht,
- FIG 2 die Breitband-Polarisationsweiche der FIG 1 in einer Seitenansicht.
- 1 shows a broadband polarization switch according to the invention in plan view,
- 2 shows the broadband polarization switch of FIG 1 in a side view.
Die in den Figuren 1 und 2 in Drauf-bzw. Seitenansicht gezeigte Breitband-Polarisationsweiche weist einen ersten Hohlleiterarm 1 rechteckigen Querschnitts mit den Seitenlängen a und b₁ auf. Dieser Hohlleiterarm 1 wird, wie in FIG 1 dargestellt ist, mit einer angepaßten Serienverzweigung 22, die aus zwei spiegelsymmetrisch aneinander gesetzten Schmalprofil E-Knicken besteht ,in zwei Teilarme 20, 21 mit halbierter Hohlleiterhöhe
Der zweite Hohlleiterarm 2 rechteckigen Querschnitts wird mit einem Normalprofil-E-Knick 12 in Längsrichtung abgewinkelt, wobei der E-Knick 12 statt mit einer schrägen Außenecke zur Fertigungserleichterung mit einem 90°-Eckvorsprung 7 ausgebildet ist. Weiterhin wird der Hohlleiterarm 2 mit einer Mittelplatte 8, die gesamte Breitseitenabmessung a reicht und die eine Dickenabmessung von etwa b₁/2 aufweist, in zwei Teilarme 14 und 15 geteilt, wobei die Wellenwiderstände genau konstant gehalten werden. Der Abgleich des Seitenversatzes erfolgt durch eine Optimierung des Abstandes bʹ zwischen der Vorderstirnfläche 17 der Mittelplatte 8 und der Ebene einer Abstufung 16. Durch die Teilung in zwei Teilarme 14 und 15 wird erreicht, daß die Reaktanz an der Übergangsstelle 6 zum wellenwiderstandsangepaßten, aus dem Innenleiter 10 und dem Außenleiter 11 bestehenden Koaxialwellenleiter 4 kleiner und daher besser kompensierbar wird. Außerdem wird an der Platte 8, die in den Schmalseitenwänden des Hohlleiterarms 2 mittels zweier Flächen 9, 9ʹ fest verankert ist, der Innenleiter 10 an deren hinteren Stirnfläche 18 befestigt. Diese Art der Anbringung und Halterung eines Innenleiters ist auch viele andere bekannte Polarisationsweichen nutzbringend zu übertragen.The
Nach FIG 2 ist die Polarisationsweiche nach der Erfindung durch die Teilungsebene 13 in zwei mit Ausnahme des Weichenzugangs am Hohlleiterarm 2 spiegelsymmetrische Teile geteilt, die durch Fräsersteuerung in einer einzigen Ebene hergestellt werden können.According to FIG. 2, the polarization switch according to the invention is divided by the
Wie in FIG 1 und 2 unten dargestellt ist, kann der Koaxialwellenleiter 4 mit dem Innenleiter 10 und dem Außenleiter 11 nach dem Querschnitt 6 längshomogen bis zu einem nachfolgenden Verbraucher, z.B. einem Hornstrahler, weitergeführt werden. Soll dagegen der Innenleiter 10 verschwinden¸ so kann dies mit einem stetigen oder gestuften Übergang bewerkstelligt werden. In den FIG 1 und 2 ist ein zweitstufiger, rotationssymmetrischer Viertelwellenlängen-Transformator mit einem gestuften Innenlieter 19 und einem gegenläufig gestuften Außenleiter 25 (konstante H₁₁-Grenzfrequenz, frequenzunabhängige Wellenwiderstandsstufen) gestrichelt eingezeichnet. Es ist auch möglich, den Transformator weiter in die Gabelungszone der Polarisationsweiche - in den Figuren 1 und 2 nach oben -zu schieben¸ so daß nur noch die unterste Transformatorstufe als Koaxialwellenleiter ausgebildet ist.As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 below, the coaxial waveguide 4 with the
Durch die Verwendung des Innenleiters 10, wird es ermöglicht, die störenden Wellenwiderstandssprünge entlang den beiden Druchgängen der Polarisationsweiche zu reduzieren oder ganz zu eliminieren. Während die Leitungswellenwiderstände der rechteckigen Polarisationsweichen-Hohlleiterarme 1 und 2 mit ihren Seitenverhältnissen a≈2b₁ fest vorgegeben sind, ist der Leitungswellenwiderstand der Rundhohlleiters 11 nicht festgelegt und daher frei wählbar. Dies eröffnet die Möglichkeit, den Leitungswellenwiderstand des Rundhohlleiters 11 abzusenken und damit an die Leitungswellenwiderstände der Rechteckhohlleiterarme 1 und 2 anzunähern. Ideale Anpassungsbedingungen herrschen, wenn die Leitungswellenwiderstände des Rundhohlleiters 11 an diejenigen der Rechteckhohlleiterarme 1 und 2 breitbandig angeglichen sind.By using the
Dies Angleichung der Wellenwiderstände wird über sehr große Bandbreiten erreicht, wenn folgende zwei Bedingungen erfüllt sind, nämlich zum einen die Angleichung der Querschnittsfaktoren in den Wellenwiderstandsgleichungen der aneinander anzupassenden Hohlleiter und zum anderen die Angleichung der Grenzfrequenzen der ineinander überzuführenden Wellentypen, wobei dann die noch verbleibenden Reaktanzsprünge in den Hohlleitern durch nur kurze Baulängen erfordernde Transformationsmaßnahmen angepaßt werden können. Es ergibt sich bei Verwendung dieses Prinzips eine wesentlich vergrößerte Bandbreite der Reflektionsarmut.This adjustment of the wave resistances is achieved over very large bandwidths if the following two conditions are met, namely on the one hand the adjustment of the cross-sectional factors in the wave resistance equations of the waveguides to be matched to one another and on the other hand the adjustment of the cut-off frequencies of the wave types to be merged, with the remaining reactance jumps then can be adapted in the waveguides by means of transformation measures requiring only short overall lengths. Using this principle results in a significantly increased range of reflection poor.
Durch die Verwendung des Innenleiters 10 wird neben der angestrebten Wellenwiderstandssenkung zusätzlich eine wesentliche Ausweitung des Eindeutigkeitsbereichs beim Koaxialwelllenleiter 4 erreicht. Für noch breiters Eindeutigkeitsbereiche sind andere Querschnittsformen des Innenleiters 10 möglich z.B. ein kreuzförmiger oder ein vierkantförmiger Querschnitt. Der Innenleiter 10 bewirkt sehr geringe Zusatzverluste und bringt eine Reihe von weiteren Vorteilen. Der über die Polarisationsweiche hinaus verlängerte Innenleiter 10 eignet sich dazu, das Verhalten eines an die Polarisationsweiche angeschlossenen Verbrauchers zu verbessern, so z.B. die Bandbreite der Reflektionsarmut eines Rillenhorns und seine Kreuzpolarisationseigenschaften gegenüber der Hornspeisung. Dabei kann der Innenleiter 10 im Hornhals, im Rillenbereich oder außerhalb der Hornapertur stetig, gestuft oder sprunghaft enden. Ferner kann in einem hohl gestalteten Innenleiter 10 Raum geschaffen werden für Wellen gleicher oder anderer Art mit gleicher oder anderer Frequenz wie diejenigen außerhalb des Innenleiters 10 bereits vorhandenen Wellen. Dazu kann der Innenraum des Innenleiters 10 in geeigneter Weise mit leitendem Material oder mit Dielektrikum versehen werden. Im Innenraum des Innenleiters 10 und/oder nahe seiner Oberfläche können ferner Koppeleinrichtungen für Wellen angeordnet werden, die aus dem Raum außerhalb des Innenleiters 10 in sein Inneres und umgekehrt gekoppelt werden.Through the use of the
