Definitions

  • the subject of the present invention is a collinear antenna of the alternating coaxial type.
  • each dipole D1 is constituted by a tube element conductor 10 and the antenna further comprises two conductive elements parallel straight lines 12 and 14.
  • the conductive cylinders 10, 12, 14, etc., constituting the dipoles D1, D2, D3 are alternately welded on one of the conductors 12 and 14 and surround the other conductor.
  • the dipole D1 consists of the cylindrical element 10 coaxial with the element conductor 14 and soldered to the conductive element 12.
  • the elements DF phase shifters consist in the fact that the same conductive element 12, 14 goes from a position where it is soldered onto the conductive element cylindrical at a position in which it is arranged along the axis of the next cylindrical conductive element.
  • This change in layout roughly corresponds to a phase shift of ⁇ / 2. So we get overall an addition of the currents flowing in the portions of the conductors 12 and 14 corresponding to the different dipoles.
  • the alternate position of the conductive cylinders, in relation to the two straight conductive elements causes the radiation pattern of the entire antenna is not symmetrical, and the antenna is therefore not omnidirectional.
  • each dipole is consisting of the cylindrical conductor element and the linear conductor arranged along the axis of this cylinder. It follows from this configuration that the physical length of the cylindrical tube does not correspond to the length radiant of it. The antenna is therefore not suitably granted on the frequency of work thereof.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide an antenna collinear of the alternating coaxial type which makes it possible to obtain a distribution of current on the antenna such that the radiation pattern is actually omnidirectional.
  • the dipoles successive are constituted by radiating elements formed from a conductive cylindrical element and two cylindrical elements conductors and that, in addition, the antenna has three elements linear conductors, the antenna structure is symmetrical and the field radiated electric is therefore also radiated.
  • Each cylindrical element of length I internally comprises a disc made of a dielectric material of coefficient ⁇ , orthogonal to the wire element, the length I 1 of which in the direction of the wire element is such that:
  • 1 ⁇ / 2
  • FIG. 2 shows the entire antenna 20. Functionally, this consists of a radiating part 22, one end blocking 24 opposite the connection area of the antenna cable 26 and its end close to its connection to the cable, the antenna includes preferably two current traps referenced 28 and 30 respectively.
  • the radiating part 20 of the antenna consists of a succession of radiating or radiant zones formed by first radiating zones 32 1 , 32 2 , etc., and by second radiating zones 34 1 , 34 2 , etc., the second radiating zones being arranged alternately with the first radiating zones.
  • the radiating part 22 of the antenna is produced from three rectilinear conductors 36, 38 and 40 parallel to each other.
  • the conductor 38 will be called the central linear conductor and the other two conductors will be called the lateral linear conductors. The latter are equidistant from the central conductor 38.
  • the first radiating zones 32 1 , 32 2 , etc. are constituted by two cylindrical conducting surfaces respectively referenced 42 and 44.
  • the second radiating zones 34 1 , 34 2 , etc. are constituted by a single substantially cylindrical conductive surface 46.
  • the second radiating zone 34 i is, as already indicated, constituted by a conductive cylinder 36 whose diameter d is substantially equal to the distance which separates the lateral rectilinear conductors 36 and 40.
  • the cylinders 46, constituting the second zones radiating, have a length L.
  • the axis XX 'of the cylinder 46 is coincident with the central rectilinear conductor 38 while its external face 36a is welded to the lateral conductors 36 and 40. An electrical connection is thus established between the cylinders 46 constituting the second radiating zones 34 i and the lateral conductors 36 and 40.
  • the first radiating zones 32 i are, as already indicated, constituted by two conductive cylinders 42 and 44 both identical and preferably identical to the cylinder 46 constituting the second radiating zone 34 i .
  • the cylinders 42 and 44 therefore also have a diameter d and a length L.
  • Each cylinder 42, 44 has its axis YY 'and ZZ' respectively, coincident with the lateral rectilinear conductors 36 and 40 respectively.
  • the external face 44a and 42a of the cylinders respectively conductors 42 and 44 is soldered to the central conductor 38. An electrical connection is thus established between the pairs of cylinders 42 and 44 constituting the first radiating zones 32 i and the central conductor 38.
  • the length L of the cylinders 42, 44 and 46 corresponds at half wavelength ⁇ / 2.
  • this space has a length e.
  • the different rectilinear conductors 36, 38 and 40 pass from a position of coaxiality to a position of connection to the conductive cylinder, thus substantially a 180 ° phase shift between two successive radiating zones, which effectively makes it possible to obtain the sum of the currents flowing in each radiating zone in transmission or in reception.
  • the bandwidth of the antenna is improved if the diameter d of the conductive cylindrical surfaces 42, 44 and 46 is increased.
  • a suitable value of d is 0.08 ⁇ .
  • the phase shifts in the conductive cylindrical surfaces and in the rectilinear conductors 36, 38 and 40 are different for the same physical length of conductor.
  • a dielectric disc 50 is mounted inside the conductive cylinder 42, 44 or 46 which can, for example, be made of Teflon . The introduction of this disc 50 makes it possible to compensate for the electrical length in the conductive cylinder 42 and in the rectilinear conductor 40.
  • the antenna 20 also comprises, at its end 52 of connection to the antenna coaxial cable 26, two current traps 28 and 30.
  • Each current trap 28, 30 is constituted by a surface conductive cylindrical 54, 56 coaxial with cable 26 and whose length L ' corresponds to ⁇ / 4, ⁇ being the working wavelength of the antenna.
  • the lower end 54a, 56a of the cylinders 54 and 56 is connected to the external face 26a of the coaxial cable 26 by an annular portion 58 and 60 also conductive.
  • the radiating zones consist of one or two cylindrical conductive surfaces of ratio L / d, the ratio is around 5.
  • the antenna Due to the realization of the alternating radiating zones consisting of a conductive cylindrical surface and two surfaces conductive cylindrical, the antenna has overall symmetry geometric with respect to the central rectilinear conductor 38. We obtain thus a most omnidirectional azimuth radiation pattern possible.
  • the realization of the antenna is simple since it consists in the welding of the conductive cylindrical surfaces 42, 44 and 46 on the rectilinear electrical conductors 36, 38 and 40. It is necessary to add that, in the case where each conductive cylinder is equipped with a disc dielectric, this dielectric disc at the same time constitutes a spacer for mechanical support of the conductive cylindrical surface relative to the rectilinear electrical conductor and centering of cylindrical tube / rod assemblies.
