Definitions
- the field of the invention is that of omnidirectional volume antennas such as biconical or discone antennas, to which the addition of elements in the formation zone of the radiation pattern allows a division of the azimuthal angular space.
- a biconical antenna is obtained by the superposition of two cones facing each other by their pointed end, the supply being effected by the center of the cones.
- the shape of the cones makes it possible to determine a zone of progressive flare where the wave propagates.
- This flaring zone may be of various shapes and may in particular provide an outline such as those used for "Vivaldi" type antennas with quasi-shear profiles; this outline can just as easily be reduced to a simple straight line.
- the discone antenna is made by means of a reflector plane on which a cone is arranged, this association has substantially the same characteristics as the bi-conical antenna in terms of performance.
- the omnidirectional antennas of the known art may have a good directivity in all directions in an azimuth plane but do not allow to benefit from latitude to preferentially influence the directivity in a subset of directions. The transition without contact then makes it easier to integrate the antenna.

- at least one of the conductive elements comprises radial insulating sectors supporting the modifying elements.
- At least one of the conductive elements comprising insulating sectors is made of plastic and comprises metallized parts.
- the modifying elements are fed by printed tracks directly on the plastic element comprising metallized parts.
- the antenna further comprises metal rods connecting the two conductive elements so as to ensure a continuity of mass.
- the antenna comprises at least one solid insulating part in which is formed a conductive element having a progressive flaring zone.

- FIGS. 9a and 9b illustrate a variant of the invention in which one of the conductive elements is plane
- FIG. 10 illustrates a variant of the invention in which the conductive elements are half-spheres.
- the antenna according to the invention comprises at least a first element of flared and conductive shape and a second element which is also conductive and which can also be of flared or planar shape.
- the assembly consisting of these two elements is coupled to a coaxial central excitation line.
- This exciting line comprises a metal central rod that provides the antenna power function by bringing a short circuit at the opening between the two conductive elements to allow coupling between the coaxial type of access and the together constituted by the two conductive elements.
- This short circuit is achieved by placing an "open circuit" at a distance of ⁇ / 4 at the end of the metal rod.
- the height above the end of this central rod is also a setting parameter of the adaptation of the antenna.
- FIG. 3 shows an example of an omnidirectional antenna structure, more precisely comprising a first conical element C c i, a second conical element C2 , a central coaxial excitation line L c .
- Each conductive element has a central opening O 1 , O 2 allowing the insertion of the exciter line within said elements and a symmetry of revolution about a central axis A 0 .

- the height of this main room in this example is
- the space between the two cones set at 4mm in this example is an important parameter of optimization, this opening plays a role in the antenna power system which is achieved by a coupling between the mode of the coaxial cable and the mode of the biconical antenna.
