Definitions

  • the present invention relates to microwave antennas of the slot waveguide type, that is to say the antennas made of a waveguide in the partition of which were made one or more radiating slots.
  • the invention relates more particularly to these antennas when they are mounted against a wall such as the wall of a building or a vehicle.
  • Known antennas of this type are made from a waveguide of rectangular or circular section and the slot or slots are generally obtained by milling.
  • the antenna thus produced is associated with a fixing device to hold it on the wall against which it is to be mounted, and, more often than not, a radome formed by a thin layer of dielectric which covers at least the slot or slots.
  • the object of the present invention is to simplify the production of these slot antennas. This is obtained by making a groove in the wall and by covering this groove with a conductive plate pierced with slots so that the assembly thus produced constitutes the desired slot wave guide.
  • an antenna mounted on a wall and constituted by a slotted waveguide, characterized in that it comprises a groove formed in the wall and a conductive plate in which the slits are made and in that that the plate covers the groove so as to delimit a space between the plate and the groove, this space between the plate and the groove constituting the interior space of the slotted waveguide.
  • FIG. 1 shows, seen in cross section, that is to say in a section plane perpendicular to the largest dimension of its waveguide, an antenna of the slotted waveguide type according to known art .
  • This antenna is mounted on a wall 1 specially designed to receive it; in the case of the example described, the wall is a part of the fuselage of an airplane.
  • This wall 1, which, without the antenna, would have been a curved wall without rapid variation in curvature, here has a planar surface in the middle of a curved surface and this planar surface is pierced with an oblong hole in which sinks partially a metal profile 7 which constitutes a rectangular waveguide provided with two kinds of wings, 7a, 7b, on its short sides.
  • the waveguide has its two long sides parallel to the planar surface of the wall 1 and situated on either side of this planar surface and that of the two long sides which is outside the fuselage is pierced with slots, 4.
  • a dielectric plate 6 is bonded, on the outside of the waveguide, to the long side pierced with slots, to act as a radome.
  • the wings 7a, 7b are pierced with holes through which pass screws, such as 8a and 8b, which secure the profile 7 by screwing into the wall 1 at the flat surface of this wall.
  • FIG. 2 represents, seen in cross section, that is to say in a section plane perpendicular to the largest dimension of its waveguide, an antenna of the slotted waveguide type according to the invention.
  • This antenna is mounted on the same type of aircraft and in the same place of the fuselage as the antenna according to FIG. 1; but here the wall at the level of the antenna is studied and designed in a different way.
  • the wall 1 no longer has an oblong hole but a longitudinal groove, 2, with vertical sides and flat bottom, the tops of the sides respectively have two edges 2a, 2b on which comes to take support a panel 3 consisting of a printed circuit; this printed circuit comprises a support made of dielectric material, 6, on which is deposited a conductive metallic layer, 5, except in certain places, in order to thus determine slots, 4, in the metallic layer.
  • the printed circuit 3 is bonded, using a conductive adhesive, to the flanges 2a, 2b, with its dielectric face facing outward from the groove 2 and therefore outward from the aircraft.
  • the antenna according to FIG. 2 is indeed, like the antenna according to FIG. 1, an antenna of the slot waveguide type, the interior space of the waveguide of which is delimited by the volume between groove and the panel 3 which covers the groove, that is to say the printed circuit.
  • the antenna is protected by a radome formed here by the support made of dielectric material, 6, of the printed circuit.
  • the panel 3 instead of being constituted by a printed circuit, can, for example, include a metallic plate, conductive, pierced with slots and another plate of dielectric material, these two plates being joined by gluing and having been studied to have sufficient rigidity. It is even possible, if a radome is not essential, not to close the groove only with a simple conductive metal plate provided with slots.
  • the waveguide is a rectangular guide, but the invention also applies to the production of antennas where the slotted waveguide would be of different section and in particular to section waveguides.
  • circular and guides whose section varies longitudinally.
  • antennas can be made with one or more slots.
