Definitions
- the present invention relates to a planar microstrip array antenna, and more specifically, to a microstrip array antenna for household use, adapted to receive electromagnetic waves from a broadcast satellite.
- a parabolic antenna has been used to receive electromagnetic waves transmitted from a broadcast satellite. It is mounted on the roof or balcony of a building so as to be directed to the satellite.
- the parabolic antenna comprises a reflector, a radiating element, and a converter, the last two being disposed on the focal position of the reflector.
- an antenna of this type has a complicated construction, and is large and heavy. In strong winds, such as those of a typhoon, therefore, the parabolic antenna may quite possibly be broken. In snowy areas, moreover, snow may accumulate on the antenna, whereby the electromagnetic waves will be absorbed in it. The installation of the parabolic antenna, furthermore, spoils the external appearance of the building.
- a planar microstrip array antenna is adapted to receive electromagnetic waves in a frequency band available for broadcast satellites, e.g., a band of about 12 GHz. Since this planar antenna can be mounted along the wall, or the like, of a building, it is less influenced by strong winds, and is less likely to spoil the external appearance of the building.
- planar antenna 1 is inclined if it is directed towards broadcast satellite 3. Accordingly, antenna 1 becomes susceptible to strong winds, and snow may accumulate on it, resulting in attenuation of the electromagnetic waves from the broadcast satellite. If the planar antenna is mounted aslant in this manner, moreover, it spoils the external appearance of building 2.
- planar antenna is preferably given a beam tilt or a characteristic such that a beam radiated from the antenna is deviated from a direction perpendicular to the plane of the antenna.
- planar antenna 1 can be mounted substantially vertically along the wall of building 2, as shown in Fig. 2, by giving the antenna an upward beam tilt of 23°, for example.
- Figs. 3 and 4 show part of the prior art planar microstrip array antenna for circularly polarized waves, constructed as follows.
- Fig. 3 is a partial plan view of the antenna
- Fig. 4 is a sectional view taken along line 4-4 of Fig. 3.
- This antenna is formed by superposing first and second printed boards 7 and 8 on earth plate 5, with dielectric layers 6 between them. Feed line 9 with a predetermined pattern is formed on first printed board 7, while a conductor film is deposited on second printed board 8.
- the distance between each two adjacent radiating elements must be set to 80 to 90 % of wavelength ⁇ o of electromagnetic waves in a free space.
- substantial electromagnetic radiations or grating lobes are inevitably produced in undesired directions.
- distance d between the radiating elements in each pair to be given a phase difference must be set to, e.g., 0.64 ⁇ o or less.
- the array antenna is designed so as to be best suited for the 12-GHz band, the frequency band for broadcasting via satellite, for example, in consideration of these requirements, the outside diameter of radiating slot 10 of each radiating element is about 14 mm, and distance d is about 16 mm. Accordingly, the gap between the outer peripheral edges of the respective radiating slots of each pair of radiating elements to be given the phase difference is about 2 mm, which is not a very wide space. Since phase shift portions 12 are formed in the middle of the terminal portions of feed line 9, moreover, the configuration of the feed line is complicated. At such portions as those indicated by symbols A, B and C in Fig.
- the feed line is situated so close to the radiating elements that undesired electromagnetic coupling are caused between them, thus lowering the gain of the antenna. If the width of the feed line is reduced to enlarge the distance between the feed line and the radiating elements, in order to prevent these undesired electromagnetic coupling, a great loss is produced in the feed line, so that the antenna gain is lowered.
- the conventional planar array antenna with a beam tilt entails reduced gain. If the configuration of the feed line is thus complicated, moreover, the phase is asymmetrical at the diverging and bent portions. Accordingly, impedance matching is difficult, and again, the gain is lowered.
- the object of the present invention is to give a beam tilt to a planar microstrip array antenna, and to prevent lowering of the gain and characteristics of the antenna.
- each pair of radiating elements for circularly polarized waves are arranged at a predetermined rotational angle to each other within the plane of a planar antenna.
- Terminal feeding portions of a feed line which correspond individually to the radiating elements in pairs, are formed so that their electrical lengths, as measured from their diverging portions, are equal.
- phase shifts are produced between the paired radiating elements, thus permitting a desired beam tilt.
- phase shift portions need not be formed in the middle of the terminal feeding portions of the feed line which correspond to the radiating elements, so that the general configuration of the feed line is simple. Consequently, the gap between the feed line and the radiating elements can be made wide enough to prevent undesired electromagnetic coupling between the feeder line and the elements, thus ensuring improvement in the gain and characteristics of the antenna.
- each radiating element situated close to the feed line is partially modified so that the gap between the element and the line is widened.
- the characteristics of the radiating elements themselves are lowered, the undesired electromagnetic coupling between the elements and the feed line are reduced, so that the gain and characteristics of the antenna, as a whole, are improved.
- FIGs. 5 to 10 show a first embodiment of the present invention.
- Antenna 30 of this embodiment is a planar microstrip array antenna for circularly polarized waves.
- Fig. 5 shows an outline of antenna 30, and
- Fig. 6 is an exploded perspective view of the antenna.
- Antenna 30 comprises metallic body 31 in the form of a shallow tray, which doubles as an earth plate.
- First dielectric sheet 32, printed feeder board 33, second dielectric sheet 34, printed radiation board 35, protector plate 36, and cover 37 are successively superposed in layers on the front face of body 31.
- the respective edge portions of cover 37 and body 31 are coupled together by means of frame members 38, 39 and 40, whereby the aforesaid individual members are assembled together.
- First and second dielectric sheets 32 and 34 are formed of dielectric material, e.g., foaming polyethylene.
- Cover 37 is formed of synthetic resin or fiber-reinforced plastic material.
- the surface of cover 37 is coated with a film, such as fluorine-based resin or "TEDLER” film (trademark; produced by Du Pont de Nemours & Co., USA), which is highly weatherproof, sheds water, and cannot be easily soiled with snow, ice, or dirt.
- Protector plate 36 is formed relatively thick from highly adiabatic material, such as foaming polystyrene. Plate 35 serves to protect printed radiation board 35 and the like from a temperature rise caused by sunlight, and to prevent them from being mechanically damaged when some hard substance runs against cover 37.
- Converter 45 is attached to the rear face of body 31. It is coupled electromagnetically to printed feeder board 33 by means of feed waveguide 46. Waveguide 46 is bent at an angle of 90° so that converter 45 is disposed parallel to the rear face of body 31. With this arrangement, the depth of the whole antenna structure can be reduced.
- Figs. 7 and 8 show the arrangements of printed feeder board 33 and printed radiation board 35, respectively.
- feed line 51 composed of a conductor film having the pattern shown in Fig. 7, is formed on dielectric film substrate 50.
- a plurality of pairs of circularly polarized wave radiating elements 62a to 65a and 62b to 65b are arranged on radiation board 35.
- Each of these radiating elements is composed of annular radiating slot 66 and substantially circular feeding patch 67.
- Slot 66 is formed by annularly removing part of the conductor film on dielectric film 60 so that patch 67 of the conductor film is left in the center.
- a pair of notches 68 are formed on the peripheral edge portion of patch 67 so as to diametrically face each other. Further, a plurality of pairs of terminal feeding portions 52a to 55a and 52b to 55b are formed on feed line 51 of feeder board 33, corresponding individually to the radiating elements. As shown in Figs. 9 and 10, printed boards 33 and 35 are superposed with second dielectric sheet 34 between them. The feeding portions are coupled electromagnetically to their corresponding radiating elements so as to correspond to the lower portions of the respective feeding patches of the elements.
- first pairs 52 of terminal feeding portions 52a and 52b are coupled to first pairs 62 of radiating elements 62a and 62b, respectively; second pairs 53 of portions 53a and 53b to second pairs 63 of elements 63a and 63b, third pairs 54 of portions 54a and 54b to third pairs 64 of elements 64a and 64b, and fourth pairs 55 of portions 55a and 55b to fourth pairs 65 of elements 65a and 65b.
- Each pair of terminal feeding portions are connected by means of first diverging portion 56, and each two adjacent pairs are connected by means of their respective second diverging portions 57.
- First and second pairs 52 and 53 and third and fourth pairs 54 and 55 are connected by means of their corresponding diverging portions 58.
- Each pair of radiating elements are arranged at a rotational angle of 90° to each other within the plane of the antenna. More specifically, elements 62b, 63b, 64b and 65b of first, second, third, and fourth pairs 62, 63, 64 and 65 are oriented at an angle of 90° to elements 62a, 63a, 64a and 65a, respectively. Also, the terminal feeding portions are oriented corresponding to the arrangement of the radiating elements. More specifically, portions 52b, 53b, 54b and 55b of first, second, third, and fourth pairs 52, 53, 54 and 55 are oriented at an angle of 90° to portions 52a, 53a, 54a and 55a, respectively. Notches 68 of each radiating element are arranged at an angle of 45° to the extending direction of each terminal feeding portion. Electromagnetic-wave beams of right-handed circularly polarized waves are emitted from the radiating elements.
- a phase shift of 90° is made between each pair of radiating elements, that is, between elements 62a and 62b, between elements 63a and 63b, between elements 64a and 64b, and between elements 65a and 65b.
- the individual terminal feeding portions of the feed line have the same electrical length, and the electrical distance between first and second diverging portions 56 and 57 is uniform.
- Phase shift portions 59 formed individually between sound and third diverging portions 57 and 58 of each second pair 53 and between second and third diverging portions 57 and 58 of each fourth pair 55. Portions 59 produce a phase delay of 180° each.
- radiating elements 62b, 63a and 63b are subject to phase delays of 90°, 180°, and 270°, respectively, behind each corresponding radiating element 62a.
- elements 64b, 65a and 65b are subject to phase delays of 90°, 180°, and 270°, respectively, behind each corresponding element 64a.
- Elements 62a and 64a are in the same phase, that is, the former is subject to a phase delay of 360° behind the latter. Since element 63b is subject to a phase delay of 270° behind element 62a, a phase delay of 90° is produced between elements 63b and 64a. Thus, there is a phase delay of 90° between each two adjacent radiating elements.
- beam tilt angle ⁇ is about 23°.
- Figs. 7 and 8 only partially show printed feeder board 33 and printed radiation board 35.
- the feeder line and radiating elements are formed having the same pattern as aforesaid.
- the distance between each two adjacent radiating elements with a phase shift (e.g., between 62a and 62b or between 62b and 63a) is set at about 0.64 ⁇ o, and the distance between each two adjacent radiating elements in the same phase (e.g., between 62a and 62a or between 65b and 65b) is set at about 0.8 ⁇ o.
- the impedance of feed line 51 is set at 100 ohms. The width of line 51 varies from one point to another, whereby the impedance of each radiating element is matched to the line impedance.
- Fig. 12 comparatively shows characteristic curves of the antenna according to the aforementioned embodiment and the prior art antenna.
- curve P represents a characteristic of the 16-element planar microstrip array antenna for the 12-GHz band, having the conventional construction shown in Fig. 3.
- Curve E represents a characteristic of the 16-element microstrip array antenna according to the first embodiment of the present invention shown in Figs. 7 to 10.

- the antenna of the present invention enjoys higher efficiency than the conventional one.
- Fig. 11 shows a second embodiment of the present invention.
- An antenna of this second embodiment has substantially the same construction as the antenna of the first embodiment shown in Figs. 5 to 10.
- the second embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that the external configuration of radiating elements 72a, which, among other radiating elements 72, are situated close to feed line 71, is partially modified. More specifically, each element 72a has a straight edge 73 on one side 73 which is formed by cutting off that part of the outer peripheral edge portion of the element beside line 71. Edge 73 serves to maintain a wide gap between each element 72a and line 71.
- the distance between the respective edges of each two adjacent elements 72a is set to, e.g., 6 mm.
- Fig. 13 shows a characteristic curve indicative of the improvement of the efficiency of the antenna according to the second embodiment, compared to the first embodiment. As seen from Fig. 13, the gain is increased throughout the working frequency band for the antenna.
- Fig. 14 shows a third embodiment of the present invention.
- feed line 151 and circularly polarized wave radiating elements 163a and 163b are formed on one and the same printed board.
- Elements 163a and 163b are formed having a pair of notches 168 each.
- Terminal feeding portions 153a and 153b of line 151 are coupled directly to radiating elements 163a and 163b, respectively.
- Adjacent feeding portions 153a and 153b are arranged at an angle of 90° to each other.
- the second embodiment is constructed in the same manner as the first embodiment.
- a phase shift of 90° is given between each two adjacent circularly polarized wave radiating elements.
- the phase shift of this angle is best suited for antennas for the reception of broadcasting via satellite.
- the phase angles of four radiating elements included in each two adjacent pairs can be set individually to 0°, 90°, 180°, and 270° by forming the feed line so that a phase difference of 180° is given between the adjacent pairs.
- the feed line must only be designed so as to give a phase shift of 180° between each two adjacent pairs.
- the feed line is simplified in construction.
- the phase shift of 90° results in a beam tilt of about 23°.
- the installation angle of the antenna with respect to a vertical line can be made narrow enough for practical use by giving the planar antenna the beam tilt of 23°.
- the arrival angle (wave angle) of electromagnetic waves from a broadcast satellite in a geostationary orbit is 31.2°, so that the planar antenna can be installed at an angle of 8.2° to the vertical line.
- the arrival angle (wave angle) of electromagnetic waves from a broadcast satellite is 38.0°, so that the planar antenna can be installed at an angle of 15° to the vertical line.
- the planar antenna can be mounted close to and substantially along the wall of a building or the like.
- the possibility of the antenna being influenced by strong winds is small, snow or the like cannot accumulate on the antenna, and the installed antenna is less likely to spoil the external appearance of the building.
- the phase difference can be selected within a range of 30° to 150° to set the beam tilt angle at will.
