Definitions

  • the present invention relates to passive components for the propagation of microwave waves. More particularly, it relates to a planar transition device between a microstrip conductor line and a component in rectangular waveguide technology.
  • Conductive micro-ribbon technology offers the possibility of integrating relatively easily microwave functions at frequencies of a few gigahertz, especially up to band C. This technology becomes more complex to use at higher frequencies, a few tens of gigahertz (Ku, K and Ka bands). Indeed, the radiating nature of a micro-ribbon line requires the confinement of the conductors in a conductive mechanical structure providing electrical shielding. The dimensions of this mechanical structure must be smaller as the frequency is high.
  • Air waveguides are in essence non-radiating structures, but do not lend themselves well to the integration of complex functions. Waveguides are therefore used for devices with low losses or for high microwave powers. By replacing the air with a relative permittivity dielectric greater than 1, the dimensions of the waveguide are sufficiently small to allow integration of a dielectric substrate waveguide ("Substrate Integrated Waveguide") to a micro-ribbon line.
  • a dielectric substrate waveguide (“Substrate Integrated Waveguide")
  • the article Integrated Microstrip and Rectangular Waveguide in Planar Form "by Dominic Deslanders and Ke Wu, IEEE MICROWAVE AND WIRELESS COMPONENTS LETTERS, Vol.11, No. 2, February 2001 , proposes a solution to the lossless transformation of the quasi-TEM propagation mode in the microstrip line to the transverse electric fundamental mode TE 10 of the waveguide.
  • the transition device according to this article comprises a single thin dielectric substrate in which are integrated a micro-ribbon line, a rectangular waveguide and a planar mode transformer between the line and the waveguide.
  • the mode transformer ensures, in addition to the transformation of the quasi-TEM mode into TE 10 mode, the electrical continuity between the line and the waveguide.
  • the mode transformer includes a conducting section in isosceles trapezium whose small base is merged with one end of the ribbon and the large base is merged with a central portion of the transverse song of a first large side of the guide. wave.
  • the other side of the dielectric substrate is entirely covered with a conductive layer serving as a ground plane at the line and a second long side at the waveguide.
  • the short longitudinal sides of the waveguide are made by two rows of metallized holes or by two metallized grooves formed in the dielectric substrate.
  • the structure of the transition device of the aforementioned article is used in the patent EP 1 376 746 B1 to integrate a rectangular waveguide microwave filter and a micro-ribbon line on the same thin dielectric substrate.
  • a transition between line and waveguide is known from the prior art WO210081060047 .
  • the objective of the invention is to associate, by means of a microwave transition device, a first technology of a micro-ribbon line with a second waveguide technology different from the first, while retaining the benefits of these two technologies.
  • a transition device comprising a mode transformer between a conductive ribbon line integrated in a printed circuit board, and a rectangular waveguide
  • the card comprises a housing containing the guide of a wave of which a large side is coplanar and coaxial with the ribbon of the line and the other large side is fixed on a metal layer of the card at the bottom of the housing, and the device has a gap spanned by a metal connecting element and located between the mode transformer and one of the elements including the line and the waveguide.
  • the mode transformer is integrated with the dielectric substrate of the card according to the first technology or the waveguide according to the second technology. If the mode transformer is integrated with the dielectric substrate of the board, the gap and the metal bonding element are located between the mode transformer and one end of the waveguide. If the mode transformer is integrated with the dielectric substrate of the waveguide, the gap and the metal connecting element are located between one end of the line to ribbon and fashion transformer. The gap results from a mechanical tolerance to introduce the structure of the waveguide in the housing of the card.
  • the metal bonding element which may comprise one or more foil tapes, or one or more metal wires, provides electrical continuity between the ribbon of the line and a long side of the waveguide via the mode transformer which adapts the impedances of the latter taking into account the mismatch created by the interstice spanned by the link element.
  • the impedances are adapted in the mode transformer by ribbon line sections whose ribbon widths and thicknesses, i.e. the distances between the micro-ribbon line and the ground plane, increase in steps. from the ribbon line to the waveguide and whose lengths are approximately equal to a quarter of a wavelength.
  • the technology of the micro-ribbon line like that of a multilayer printed circuit board, and waveguide manufacturing technology, such as SIW technology ("Substrate Integrated Waveguide "in English) on ceramic substrate, are preserved which gives more flexibility in the choice of characteristics of the line and the waveguide, such as in particular dielectric relative permittivities of the card and different waveguide .
  • the waveguide may be integrated in a microwave component having as substrate a ceramic; the short sides of the waveguide may each consist of staggered rows of metallized holes to reduce radiation losses.
  • the invention makes it possible to produce low-radiation, low-loss and low-mass microwave structures by eliminating a large part of the metal structure and is thus particularly attractive for airborne equipment. It allows the association of a micro-ribbon line to various rectangular waveguide structures, such as highly selective filters and high directivity couplers.
  • the invention is suitable for producing transmission or reception heads, or network or electronic scanning antennas, operating at high frequencies up to a few tens of gigahertz.
