Definitions
- the present invention constitutes an improvement in the planar antenna having been the main patent application object in France No. 86 08106 of 05/06/86, and the certificate of addition in France, No. 87 00181 of 09/01/87 attached to the previous main request.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a structure and an inexpensive manufacturing method for a flat microwave antenna of the type intended in particular for the direct terrestrial reception of television broadcasts by satellite.
- planar antennas of the type of array antennas capable of being used for this purpose are designed on criteria of maximum efficiency, using sophisticated embodiments which are hardly compatible with mass production at cost. reduced.
- the antenna of the French patent application No. 81 08780 of 4 May 1981 concerns an antenna type "stripline".
- This antenna has the drawback of involving the use of an expensive dielectric material, and its design practically prohibits the production of networks with large numbers of radiating elements.
- planar antenna with external waveguides described in the European patent application of 12/16/86, (RTC-COMPELEC) designating the FRG, France, and Great Britain, and published under the number ° Al-0228 742.
- the antenna described comprises flexible sheets forming supports for manufacturing screen-printed studs interposed between the supply circuit and the external waveguides.
- This embodiment is obviously still very expensive, because of the need to manufacture the waveguides, and to use separate support sheets, further undergoing a screen printing treatment for the formation of associated pads.
- the planar microwave antenna of the main patent and certificate of addition applications mentioned in the preamble advantageously resolves the above drawbacks, by providing for the use of self-supporting ground planes pierced with radiating slots, in which are repelled by stamping, positioning pads.
- the repositioned positioning pads are intended to come to rest on non-conductive portions of the suspended substrate.
- the drilling of the slots on the one hand, and the pushing back of the positioning pads on the other hand would imply the use of a more complex stamping tool, or even of two separate tools.
- Another object of the invention is more generally to produce a network antenna of simple construction, with low tolerance requirements, compatible with a mass production process, at low cost price.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a flat antenna with radiating slits, and not with waveguides, so as to overcome the problems of thickness of the machining plates and tolerance.
- An additional objective of the invention is to maintain the spacing between the circuit supply and ground planes, no longer by means of specific studs, but on the contrary, essentially, by the very structure of the radiating slots, which makes it possible to keep the conductor at the level of the excitation terminations, c that is to say at the most critical location of the radiating slot antenna. This also makes it possible to multiply the density of the holding points of the supply circuit.
- An additional objective of the invention is to conform the ground plans according to an economic shaping process.
- the shaping of the ground planes consists simply in carrying out a double operation, combined or not, of cutting / stamping of the slots.
- this shaping is perfectly identical for the upper and lower metal plates forming ground planes.
- An additional objective or advantage of the invention is to avoid inadvertent propagation, if necessary, of parasitic radiation modes between the antenna plates.
- an antenna element of the type comprising a central conductor and at least one ground plane, said central conductor cooperating with radiating slots provided in the ground plane and aligned in pairs, said central conductor being a microstrip conductor carried by a dielectric support sheet suspended on said ground plane,
- radiating slots are stud slots each having a substantially vertical wall on at least part of the periphery of the slot, said wall or wall portion acting as a stud positioning maintaining the spacing between said central conductor and said ground planes.
- the dielectric support sheet is suspended between two self-supporting thin metal plates forming upper and lower ground planes.
- Said substantially vertical walls of the thick slots are advantageously formed by pushing back the thin metal plates forming ground planes.
- a single stamping operation could carry out both the drilling of the slot, and the pushing back of the walls or spacing wall portions.
- the walls or wall portions of thick slots are added by gluing, welding, strength mounting or the like.
- each slot-stud can be produced according to several variants, as regards its shape (circular, rectangular, etc.), the arrangement of the walls or portions of walls (interrupted, symmetrical portions. ..), and the shape of the walls (rounded edges in contact with the dielectric support of the central conductor).
- each vertical wall must be interrupted at the level of the passage of the conductive termination of excitation of the radiating slot.
- variants are also possible with regard to the embodiment of the walls of the slot-studs (forming a body with the metal plates, or being attached thereto), and their distribution in the antenna (systematic training at each slot, or even some slots only). Additional studs can also, if necessary, be formed in other places of the self-supporting metal plates, by example in the form of pushbacks, or even non-radiating open slots made in the metal plates so as to rest on the substrate outside the central conductor.
- the slot-studs have walls allowing the passage of two excitation terminations, for operation in circular polarization (s), or even in linear polarizations.
- FIG. 1 represents an embodiment of the invention comprising a thin dielectric support sheet 12 carrying a microstrip conductor 22 and suspended between two thin self-supporting metal plates 11, 13, respectively forming upper and lower ground planes.
- the structure 11, 12, 13 thus formed has pairs of radiating slots 20a, 20b, superimposed at an excitation termination 30 of the conductor 22.
- Each pair of slots 20a, 20b and the associated termination 30 form a radiating element of the antenna.
- each of the slots 20a, 20b comprises a substantially vertical wall 31a, 31b.
- the vertical wall is integral with the metal plates 11, 13, and constitutes the folded edges of the slots 20a, 20b, shaped for example following a stamping operation.
- the total thickness of the slot-plot thus formed depends on the distance from the ground planes 11, 13, which is mainly defined by the characteristic impedance of the supply line.
- This impedance is mainly defined by the ratio w / b, w representing the width of the printed conductor, and b the distance between the ground planes 11, 13 (fig. 2).
- the ratio w / b is substantially equal to 1, for impedances of the supply line 11, 12, 13 of the order of 60 Ohm which interests us.
- w must be sufficiently small, preferably less than 2 mm in the case of a 12 GHz antenna, so that the supply lines 22 can pass between the slots without being too close to the slots, or one on the other, to avoid parasitic couplings, it can be seen that the total thickness of the stud slots 20a, 20b must be less than approximately 2 mm, that is to say less than 0.1 times the wavelength approximately ("Stripline circuit design" H.HOWE Jr, Artech House, 1974).
- the wall 31a of the upper slot 20a has a notch or interruption 32 freeing a passage for the excitation termination 30.
- the dimensions of the passage must be sufficient to neutralize any parasitic influence of the vertical wall 31a on the termination 30, as is the case. will see below.
- the vertical walls 31a, 31b of the radiating slots which ensure the relative positioning and spacing of the ground planes 11, 13 relative to the central dielectric 12, and therefore to the excitation conductor 22, 30.
- each of the metal plates 11, 13 essentially boils down, for example, to a stamping operation of the slots, followed or preceded by a cutting or other operation intended to flatten the contact edge of the walls. 31a, 31b, and to release the interruption 32 of passage of the excitation termination 30 of the driver. Due to the fact that the slotsplots thus produced maintain and space the ground planes, it is therefore not necessary in the general case to provide additional spacing pads. In addition, the fact that the spacing walls of the plates 11, 13 are located at the excitation terminations of the radiating slots guarantees the maintenance of nominal spacing at the most critical points.
- This embodiment also allows the use of self-supporting metal plates 11, 13 of very small thickness, because the rigidity of each metal plate 11, 13 is reinforced by the multiplicity of repelled walls 31a, 31b, and the multiplicity of support points along the contact edges of the walls 31a, 31b .
- the thin dielectric support can be from 25 to 75 microns, and the walls 31a, 31b pushed back into the metal plates 11, 13 must each provide a spacing approximately 0.8 mm between the ground planes and the central conductor 22.
- each radiating slot may have a diameter of approximately 15.5 mm.
- the recesses 20a, 20b of the same pair of slots have their centers aligned on a vertical axis, and may have an equal diameter. However, the diameters of the recesses of the same pair could be slightly different, for example to improve the bandwidth.
- the diameter of the recesses is of the order of 0.3 to 0.7 wavelength, preferably around 0.6 wavelength.
- pairs of radiating slots 20a, 20b has the effect of concentrating the radiant energy in an area smaller than that of the embodiments where each conductive termination is only coupled to cavities forming waveguides, in particular that the width of a waveguide is greater than the width D e of the corresponding radiating slots, for a given working frequency.
- the measurements carried out on prototype have shown that the slot operates from 10 GHz, with a T.O.S. less than 1.4. This is to be compared with the cut-off frequency of a circular guide of the same diameter (16.5 mm) is equal to 10.65 GHz. Such a guide would therefore only function correctly beyond 10.65 GHz, and therefore outside the working range of the radiating slot-studs of the present invention.
- slot-studs of the invention does not exclude that it is optionally possible to provide the radiating elements with open front cavities 27 and / or closed rear cavities 26, as shown in FIG. 2.
- the suspended lines of the invention make it possible to substantially reduce the losses likely to occur between the central conductor and the ground planes, due to the use of air as a dielectric, unlike the equivalent “stripline” or “microstrip” type antennas using a solid and expensive dielectric material.
- FIGS 2 and 3 relate to embodiments of the antenna according to the invention in the form of modules of several radiating elements.
- Each module thus advantageously comprises a network of radiating elements, regularly arranged in rows and columns.
- FIGS. 2 and 3 correspond to vertical sections of modules, along an axis of alignment of radiating elements, but one can imagine that the module comprises a plurality of alignments of identical elements in other planes parallel to the cutting plane.
- the spacing between two consecutive radiating elements on a row or a column can be equal to 0.7 to 0.9 wavelength.
- each self-supporting thin metal plate 11, 13 thus undergoes a cutting / stamping operation as defined above. simultaneously forming a plurality of slot-studs.
- the dielectric support 12 of the excitation conductive line 22 comprises a plurality of excitation terminations 30 arranged opposite the pairs of slot-studs corresponding to each radiating element. This design is particularly suitable for a mass production method of antennas.
- an antenna can be produced by combining several modules.
- this technique has the advantage of reducing the manufacturing cost, by reducing the size of the tools used.
- the savings made can be significant; moreover, the reduction in the size of the tools allows better control of the setting precision in the form of stamped plates.
- the advantage is even more decisive if each antenna is made by adding several identical modules.
- connection means between modules can be produced by input / output waveguides, or by connection of input / output terminations of adjacent modules (see fig. 12, 13, 14 of the Certificate of Addition in France No. 87 00181, corresponding to Figs. 19, 20, 21 of the corresponding European patent application 87-401252.9).
- the structure 11, 12, 13 is completed by a stamped bottom plate 14 forming closed cavities 26, and by a stamped upper crown 25 forming open cavities 27.
- the embodiment shown comprises a cavity per radiating element.
- cavities in particular closed rear cavities, common to several radiating elements, for example four adjacent radiating elements in "square".
- the antenna module with a simple flat bottom plate devoid of cavities.
- this embodiment of the antenna exclusively uses a metal sheet stamping technology for the manufacture of the four plates 11, 13, 14, 25.
- the stamping operation makes it possible on the one hand to form the slot-studs 20a, 31a; 20b, 31b, and on the other hand, to form the crown 25 with open cavities 27, and the stamped bottom plate 14 with closed cavities 26.
- the shaping of the upper crown 25 is very similar to the shaping of the slot-studs of the present invention, and that the shaping of the closed cavities 26 in the bottom plate 14 can be analogous to the conformation process bulges or abutments forming positioning pins in the embodiments of earlier patent applications in France No. 86 08106, 87 00181, and European Application No. 87 401252.9.
- Figure 2 does not in any way account for the proportion of spacings and thicknesses of the plates, which have been considerably deformed for reasons of clarity.
- the bottom reflecting plate 14 makes it possible to give direction to the radiated energy, and is located at a distance from the structure of the order of 1/4 of the wavelength in the rear cavity. This distance is a parameter for adjusting the operation of the antenna together with the dimensions of the feed line 22 and the dimensions of the slot-studs.
- the configuration of the bottom plate 14 to present closed rear cavities 26, and the possible addition of open front cavities 27, makes it possible to further optimize the recovery and the channeling in the direction of transmission / reception of the antenna. of most of the radiated energy.
- open front cavities 27 increases the gain of the antenna.
- the height of the cavities is preferably greater than 0.1 times the emission wavelength.
- a height of the open cavities 27 of 5 mm to 10 mm would give an increase in gain of the order of 2 dB, depending on the geometry, for an operating frequency of 12 GHz.
- the plates 14, 13, 12, 11 and 25 can be assembled by simple stacking, with fastening by bolting, or by insertion in a box B with cover C, as shown in FIG. 3.
- cavities 26, 27 can also be produced in the form of individual stamped cabochons, by metal rings, by sets of intersecting blades placed on the field, or even by metallic coating applied to a preformed non-metallic material, as described in the above-mentioned earlier patent applications.
- slot-studs 20a, 31a; 20b, 31b can also be carried out by attaching metal rings, or crisscross blades placed on the field, on the thin self-supporting metal plates 11, 13, as described below with reference to FIG. 9.
- the antenna module shown comprises alignments of 5 radiating elements.
- Figure 3 is a vertical sectional view along one of these alignments.
- the module shown has closed rear cavities 26, but does not have front crowns with open cavities.
- the module is provided with a polarizer P.
- the polarization (without polarizer) is linear with an electric field E parallel to the excitation lines.
- Circular polarization can be obtained by using a printed planar polarizer (for example a meandering line polarizer) placed above the radiating elements.
- a printed planar polarizer for example a meandering line polarizer
- Another method of obtaining a circular polarization consists in exciting two perpendicular linear polarizations, phase shifted by ⁇ 90 ° in each of the radiating elements, as represented in FIG. 10.
- This same embodiment of FIG. 10 also makes it possible to obtain a double linear polarization.
- Figures 4 and 5 are top views illustrating preferred embodiments of the conformation of the slot-studs according to the invention.
- the terminations 30 of the central conductor 22 penetrate opposite pairs of slots through interruptions 32 of the substantially vertical wall 31a of each slot 20a.
- the width 1 of the interrupt 32 must be greater than 4 to 5 mm, for a slit diameter approximately equal to 15.5 mm.
- the conductor 22 of the line has been placed in the conditions of the slot-stud antenna, that is to say between two upper horizontal walls 70 and lower 71 respectively, representing the ground planes, and between two vertical walls 72, 73 representing the substantially vertical walls of the slot-studs.
- the walls 70, 71, 72, 73 form the external conductor of this line of coaxial type.
- the variation of the impedance Z0 of the line thus defined has been calculated as a function of the vertical distance A of the side walls 72, 73 between which the conductor 22 is centered.
- the conductor 22 is mounted on a dielectric support 74.
- the walls 70, 71, 72, 73 are made of conductive material.
- the value of the impedance Z0 is a crucial parameter determining the performance of the antenna and the adaptation of each radiating element.
- the T.O.S. was less than about 1.4 between 10 and 11.5 GHz, or a bandwidth of 1.5 GHz, for a diameter of the slot-plot of 16.5 mm.
- the slot-studs consist of two portions of substantially vertical walls 51, 52; 61, 62. These wall portions are placed symmetrically with respect to the axis of penetration of the excitation terminations 30 between the pairs of slots.
- the substantially vertical walls of the slot-studs consist of a plurality of small portions distributed regularly or not over the periphery of the slots.
- the wall portion can be limited to a single element a few millimeters in width, for example, or even possibly to no element for some of the slots if the maintenance the spacing of the structure is sufficiently ensured at the level of adjacent slots.
- the slot-studs of the invention may, in certain variants, have the characteristics shown diagrammatically in FIGS. 8 and 9.
- the substantially vertical walls 31a, 31b have a rounded support edge 81a, 81b, to better support the dielectric 12.
- the diameters of the slot at the level of the dielectric 12, and at the level of the planes of mass 11, 13 are not equal, and must therefore be optimized for the operating frequency.
- each ring 90 or ring portions 91 determines, by its thickness, the spacing of the structure.
- rings or portions of rings 90, 91 can be added by gluing, welding, press fitting, or the like.
- the present invention also includes the case where only some of the radiating slots are slot-studs, and / or the case where additional studs spacers, formed by pushing back into the ground planes 11, 13, or else formed by metallic or non-metallic elements attached to the ground planes, are inserted into the structure. It is also possible to provide for filling the structure with a dielectric material, for example in the form of foam, to increase its rigidity.
- the antenna modules according to the invention can also be coated with an electromagnetically neutral material of the type of an expanded or molded plastic, for example expanded polyurethane.
- This coating has the particular advantage of protecting the module against bad weather when the antenna is to be used outside.
- the embodiment slotted-pads is also compatible with antennas on several levels of the kind presented in Figure 6 of the European application No. 87 401 252.9, or with the embodiments with additional coupling elements (Fig. 7 of the same European application).
- the various superimposed plates constituting the antenna according to the invention can be secured, for example by gluing, during a manufacturing process comprising a step of immersion of the bearing edges of the plates in a glue bath, before application of each plate on the previous plate.
- FIGS. 11 to 14 illustrate embodiments of the invention in which the antenna element comprises only a single ground metal plate, the upper plate 11 or the lower plate 13.
- the antenna element corresponds to that shown in Figure 2 without the upper plate 11 and without the upper ring 25.
- the printed conductors 30 have been shown on the upper part of the dielectric plate 12; we can also design an antenna element of the same type but in which these printed conductors 30 will be arranged on the underside of the plate 12.
- the printed circuit plate 12 can constitute a protective layer or radome; this layer can also be made of expanded foam since the thickness of the dielectric 12 is no longer involved in the calculations.
- Figure 12 shows an alternative embodiment of Figure 3 in which the upper metal plate has been removed.
- FIG. 13 corresponds to that of FIG. 2 in which the lower metal ground plate 13 has been removed.
- the printed conductors 30 must not touch the cavities, the minimum distance allowed being of the order of 0.5 mm for typical antenna dimensions operating at 12 Ghz.
- this plate may include positioning push-backs, with or without a vertical wall of radiating slots, to maintain the dielectric plate 12.
- FIG. 14 represents an embodiment which comprises only one upper metallic plate 11, the vertical walls being constituted by crowns or portions of crown formed by repellents 102 produced in a dielectric or a dielectric foam 101 on which the circuit rests thin print 12.
- this dielectric or dielectric foam 101 may include rear cavities.
- FIG. 15 represents an alternative embodiment comprising two independent printed circuit boards 12a and 12b which are intended to create two circular or linear polarizations independent. In this case, some slots have vertical walls directed upwards and others downwards.
- the calculation of the feed lines must be redone with regard to the impedance; it is especially the width of the printed conductors which must be recalculated.
