Definitions
- the invention relates to a dual-band antenna in microstrip technology, which should find particular use in satellite navigation.
- Satellite receivers for navigation systems generally have to receive radiation with frequencies in two frequency bands, the electromagnetic waves to be received being circularly polarized waves.
- the European satellite system GALILEO operates on two frequency bands, namely the E5a - E5b frequency band (1, 164 to 1,215 GHz) and the Ll frequency band (1,559 to 1,591 GHz), and requires high polarization purity. In this case, it is additionally required that the reception of waves which lie outside of these frequency bands is strongly suppressed.
- the signal received by the antenna element of the microstrip antenna is coupled to a conductor track through a recess in the mass layer. Since the antenna is to receive electromagnetic radiation in two frequency bands, the signals of the different frequency bands are then divided over electronic components such as so-called splitter. This extra hardware requires more space and adds weight, which is something both should avoid.
- the object of the invention is to provide a DuaS band antenna, in particular for satellite navigation applications, which delivers signals in the two frequency bands at separate outputs due to their design and in particular without additional electrical or electronic components.
- the invention proposes a dual-band antenna, in particular for satellite navigation applications, with a multi-layer structure which is provided with an upper first antenna element for receiving electromagnetic waves having a frequency in a first frequency band, one below the first Antenneneiements arranged lower second antenna element for receiving electromagnetic waves having a frequency in a second frequency band, two superimposed first and second electrically conductive ground layers, which in turn are arranged below the lower second antenna element, a conductor layer having at least one first conductor for the electromagnetic coupling with the first Antenneneiement and at least one second conductor for the electromagnetic coupling with the second antenna element, wherein the first ground layer facing the lower second antenna element has a recess below which the at least one second track runs, wherein the at least one first track is electrically insulated by means of an electrical conductor passing through the first ground layer and the lower second antenna element extends, is connected to the upper first antenna element, - a coupled to the at least one first conductor track first
- Line adaption element for suppressing the coupling of electromagnetic waves received via the lower second antenna element and coupled into the electrical conductor at a frequency in the second frequency band into the first conductor track
- a second line adaptation element coupled to the at least one second conductor track for suppressing the coupling in via the upper conductor first antenna element received electromagnetic waves in the first frequency band in the second conductor track and a plurality of dielectric layers, which are arranged between the superposed antenna elements, ground layers and conductor track layer.
- the dual-band antenna according to the invention is provided with two antenna elements (patch), which are designed to receive or transmit electromagnetic waves each having a frequency in one of two frequency bands. These two antenna elements are superposed and insulated from each other by one or more dielectric layers. Basically, the geometric shape of the two A ⁇ tennenimplantation any. Preferably, each antenna element has a substantially circular, substantially rectangular or substantially square geometric shape.
- the two antenna elements are expediently arranged one above the other in such a way that their geometrical centers of gravity on an axis which runs essentially at right angles to the antenna elements. It is also advantageous if the lower second antenna element projects beyond the peripheral edge of the upper first antenna element.
- first and second electrically conductive ground layers between which a conductor track layer is arranged, which in turn is electrically insulated from both ground layers by dielectric layers.
- the first upper ground layer which faces the lower second antenna element, is provided with at least one recess, below which a
- a physical electrical connection in the form of a conductor which extends in the direction of the succession of the layers of the multilayer structure through the latter between the conductor track layer and the first antenna element, serves to couple the upper first antenna element to a first conductor track of the conductor track layer.
- the lower second antenna element and the first ground layer facing it each have a recess, wherein an electrical conductor runs through the recesses while maintaining an all-round distance to the edges of these recesses, which connects the upper first antenna element to the first conductor layer , In this way, the signal received by the upper first antenna element can now be transmitted in a line-connected manner to the first printed conductor.
- a coupling of the second antenna element, through which the electrical conductor extends through the recess in the second antenna element, is achieved by means of corresponding line adjustment elements, which with the first interconnect are coupled, substantially suppressed.
- a line adaptation element is suitable for reflecting those electromagnetic waves having a frequency in the second frequency band, which are parasitically coupled in via the lower second antenna element,
- the coupling of the lower second antenna element with the second printed conductor takes place through the recess In the first ground layer and thus as in the conventional so-called Aperture-Coupied Microstrip antenna designs.
- a second line matching element is coupled to the second trace, which serves to match the impedance of the second trace to the lower second antenna element, thereby suppressing couplings in the second trace from the upper first antenna element.
- any type of line matching element can be coupled to the first and second tracks.
- the second line adaptation element which is to be present with the second interconnect, at which ideally only the signal with a frequency in the second frequency band, should suppress the coupling of electromagnetic waves received in the first frequency band into the second interconnect via the upper first antenna element.
- the dual-band antenna according to the invention can be used as a transmitting and / or as a receiving antenna for linearly or circularly polarized waves.
- the satellite system GALILEO operates with right-handed circularly polarized waves, the components for circularly polarized waves have two thingssanschSadore, which is why the inventive dual-band antenna for this fürsfali has two first tracks and two second tracks, as above for the first and described the second conductor, electrically connected directly to the two antenna elements or are coupled electromagnetically.

- FIG. 1 shows a first exemplary embodiment of a dual-band antenna 10 for circularly polarized electromagnetic waves, as can be found, for example, in the GALILEO satellite system.
- the dual band antenna 10 has a multilayer structure of electrically conductive layers and dielectric layers disposed therebetween, as shown in FIGS Sectional views of FIGS. 2 and 3 and in the exploded view according to FIG. 4 is shown in more detail.
- the duai-band antenna 10 has a first or upper antenna element 12, which in this exemplary embodiment is substantially square and receives electromagnetic waves in a first frequency band.

This results in an electromagnetic coupling between the lower antenna element 16 and the second interconnects 34 and 36 through the recesses 40 and 42,
- the upper antenna element 12 is now also electromagnetically coupled through the recesses 40 and 42 to the second interconnects 34 and 36.
- line adjustment elements 44,45 so-called impedance matching stubs
- the impedance of the second interconnects 34,36 is now adapted to the impedance of the lower antenna element 16 associated with these second interconnects, which ensures that substantially no signals received from the upper antenna element 12 in the second interconnects 34,36 are coupled.
- the electromagnetic coupling of the first interconnects 30, 32 with the upper antenna element 12 assigned to them takes place in accordance with the invention by means of two electrical conductors 46, 48 which extend in the direction of the succession of the various layers of the multilayer structure starting from the polyester layer 24 extend to the upper antenna element 12.
- the two conductors 46, 48 are electrically insulated from the upper ground layer 20 and the lower antenna element 16, which both pass through.
- the lower antenna element 16 is provided with two recesses 50, 52 and the upper mass layer 20 is likewise provided with two further recesses 54, 56. wherein the two recesses 50,54 associated with the letter 46 and the two recesses 52,56 associated with the conductor 48 are each aligned with one another.
- the signal received from the lower antenna element 16 is parasitically coupled and thus forwarded to the first interconnects 30 and 32.
