Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of wall-pass antennas, and more particularly to wall-pass antennas whose radiating surface is flush with the outer surface of a wall of a portable, flying or land-based device.
  • the figure 1 illustrates a wall penetration antenna.
  • a radiating waveguide 2 passes through a wall 3, typically that of a flying machine, and is excited by means of an excitation box 1.
  • the box 1 of excitation is shaped to be arranged along the inner surface of the wall 3.
  • the excitation box 1 is coupled perpendicularly to the radiating waveguide 2 and comprises a coaxial plug 4 for feeding the antenna.
  • the radiating waveguide 2 is in the form of a rectangular waveguide.
  • a rectangular waveguide excites another rectangular waveguide which acts as a radiating element.
  • a known solution is to fill the inside of the excitation waveguide with a dielectric material which makes it possible to reduce the size of the excitation waveguide 1.
  • This solution is however not optimal because of the possible discontinuities of permittivity between the excitation guide and the radiating guide which can degrade the performance of the antenna.
  • a wall crossing antenna is known from US 2,756,419 .
  • the invention responds to this need by providing an antenna whose size is less than that of known solutions of the same type.
  • the invention also proposes a wall-pass antenna excitation system comprising a radiating waveguide (20) adapted to pass through a wall having an inner surface and an outer surface, an end of the waveguide radiating wave coming flush with the outer surface of the wall, the excitation system being shaped so as to be arranged along the inner surface of the wall, the system being characterized in that it accommodates a ridge waveguide (s).
  • the invention proposes according to a third aspect a portable device, flying or terrestrial comprising a wall traversed by an antenna according to the first aspect of the invention.
  • the size of the excitation waveguide is such that it is less bulky than a box used in the antennas of the same known type.
  • the mass of the antenna is therefore reduced which in the context of integration within a flying machine is advantageous or in the integration in a portable equipment. For example, for an antenna operating at 5 GHz the mass is reduced by a factor of 4 (125 g instead of 500 g).
  • the antenna has the advantage of being more discreet, the discontinuities in the structure of the flying machine having a smaller contour than when using a case of the prior art.
  • the wall-pass antenna comprises a radiating waveguide 20 adapted to pass through a wall 3 having an inner surface 31 and an outer surface 32.
  • An end 21 of the radiating waveguide 20 is flush with the outer surface 32 of the wall 3.
  • the wall-traversing antenna also comprises an excitation waveguide 10 coupled to the radiating waveguide 20 being arranged along the inner surface 31 of the wall 3.
  • the excitation waveguides 10 and radiation have a rectangular or circular external shape.
  • the excitation waveguide 10 is a waveguide (s) (in English, " waveguide ridge ").
  • the inner part of the excitation waveguide is therefore a recess having at least one edge.
  • the ridge waveguide (s) Compared to a waveguide with a rectangular recess, the ridge waveguide (s) has a lower thickness while maintaining equivalent radiation performance for the same working frequencies.
  • the thickness of the excitation waveguide is between 10 and 20 mm, preferably 16 mm.
  • FIGS. 3a and 3b respectively illustrate a front view of the recess of the single edge 40 and double edge excitation waveguide 41, 42.
  • the excitation waveguide 10 comprises a bend 101.
  • the excitation waveguide 10 comprises a first portion 100 which extends to a second portion 102 forming a bend 101.
  • the bend 101 forms an angle of 45 ° with a longitudinal axis of the first portion 101.
  • the coupling between the two guides is performed by means of screws (not shown).
  • the radiating waveguide 20 has an inner section which may be rectangular and having at least one edge (such as the excitation waveguide 10).
  • the radiating waveguide comprises a slot (which is identical to the inner section of the radiating guide).
  • the radiating waveguide 20 is configured to operate the antenna to have hemispherical radiation.
  • the inner sections of the excitation and radiating waveguides 20 are identical.
  • the radiation waveguide 20 is also at an edge (s).
  • the internal recess can be filled with a dielectric having a permittivity ⁇ typically between 1 and 6, typically equal to 3.
  • the radiating waveguide may also be filled with a dielectric material, preferably identical to that filling the guide. of excitation waves.
  • the radiating waveguide is identical to the excitation waveguide to improve the coupling of the two guides.
  • adjustment screws 50 may be provided on one edge of the excitation waveguide one behind the other in the longitudinal direction of the excitation guide. Such adjustment screws make it possible to introduce parasitic elements which make it possible to optimize the energy transfer in the frequency band of the antenna.
  • the antenna described above is adapted to be integrated in a portable device, flying or terrestrial comprising a wall which is traversed by the antenna.
  • the invention is not limited to an antenna as described above but also to an excitation system for a wall-passing antenna comprising a radiating waveguide 20 adapted to pass through a wall 3 having an internal surface and an outer surface, one end of the radiating waveguide flush with the outer surface of the wall, the excitation system being shaped to be arranged along the inner surface of the wall, the system accommodating a waveguide with ridge (s).
