Definitions

  • the invention relates to a waveguide radiator with a slotted waveguide with a plurality of slots mounted in the waveguide.
  • the invention further relates to a group antenna radiator and a synthetic aperture radar system.
  • Waveguide radiators or array antenna radiators are used, for example, in phased array antennas of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems with single and dual polarization. So far, so-called microstrip patch antennas or slotted waveguide antennas are used as emitters.
  • SAR synthetic aperture radar
  • Microstrip patch antennas have high electrical losses and their electrical feed network is not efficient in longer radiator lengths than about seven wavelengths feasible (in the X-band about 20 cm).
  • T / R modules transmitting / receiving modules
  • the problem arises of dissipating the heat of the active modules, which are mounted on the back of the radiators, to the front.
  • the slotted waveguide antennas are limited by their electrically resonant behavior in the achievable relative bandwidth ( ⁇ 5%). In addition, they require a high manufacturing accuracy and are very expensive to produce as dual polarized group radiators.
  • Concepts used in the prior art include waveguides with inner lands and longitudinal slots for vertical polarization, and rectangular waveguides with skewed wires and transverse slots for horizontal polarization. Here are Also, the necessary transitions of the connected coaxial cable in the waveguide problematic.
  • a waveguide radiator which comprises a slotted waveguide in which an additional inner conductor, a so-called barline, is mounted.
  • This inner conductor is polarization-dependent specially shaped to excite all slots of the waveguide in phase.
  • the propagation modes are no longer dispersive but correspond to those in coaxial lines, ie TEM modes. This can increase the bandwidth.
  • the cross-sections of the waveguide can be significantly reduced in size, since there is no lower limit frequency (so-called cutoff) in TEM modes.
  • the coupling can be done by a direct coaxial transition, which is mechanically very easy to implement, for example, by commercially available SMA chassis sockets.
  • the waveguide radiator should be broadband, efficient and inexpensive to produce, so that from this a planar array antenna can be built, the u.a. can be used in space or airborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems.
  • SAR synthetic aperture radar
  • a waveguide radiator comprising a slotted waveguide having a plurality of transverse or longitudinal slots mounted in the waveguide. If the waveguide has transverse slots, the direction of the emitted polarization of the waveguide corresponds to the longitudinal direction of the waveguide. If the slotted waveguide has longitudinal slots, the direction of the emitted polarization of the waveguide corresponds to the transverse direction of the waveguide. Depending on the orientation of the slots, thus either horizontally or vertically polarized waves can be radiated.
  • the additional inner conductor mounted in the waveguide is such that the distance between adjacent slots along the waveguide corresponds to exactly one wavelength of a traveling wave to provide in-phase excitation, thereby providing a traveling wave principle and all slots of the waveguide can be excited in phase.

  • the height or thickness of the dielectric layer is not uniform along the waveguide, but has an individually shaped height profile. Due to the height profile and the shape of the inner conductor, the amplitude and phase of the electric field strength in the slots along the waveguide can be selectively influenced, so that any aperture can be realized, for example, to suppress secondary maxima in the antenna pattern below a predetermined value. In the same way, it is also possible to achieve a homogeneous amplitude and phase coverage along the waveguide, for example in order to maximize the antenna gain and to minimize the half-width.
  • Each slot of the waveguide radiator can have individual geometric dimensions. It is understood, however, that the waveguide radiator has either only longitudinal or transverse slots.

  • One feature of the standing wave resonant feed is an additional quarter wave transformer located in each of the repeating sections.
  • This quarter-wave transformer is realized by a taper of the inner conductor, i. a reduction of the conductor width.
  • the length of this taper or conductor width reduction is preferably chosen so that it corresponds to an electrical path length of exactly one quarter of a line wavelength.
  • the reduction of the conductor width causes an increase of the characteristic impedance along the tapered portion.
