Definitions
- the field of the invention is that of compact bipolarization power distributors.
- This type of distributor is used to supply a network of radiating elements from a source emitting in the radio frequency range. It can also operate as a receiver in the same frequency domain. In this case, the splitter combines several signals received by the network into a single signal.
- the main missions targeted are the active antennas in X-band, in Ku-band and in Ka-band for which the notions of size and surface efficiency are essential.
- the apertures of the radiating elements for these missions are of the order of 2.5 to 3.5 times the emission wavelength. It follows that the use of cones with high surface efficiency for these applications is to be avoided given their bulk at these radiating aperture sizes.
- PCB printed Circuit Board
- the distributor comprises four identical "twists" and two power distributors, each pair of junctions located in the same plane being connected by the base of said junctions by means of two twists to the two outputs of a power distributor comprising a single entry.
- the distributor comprises a coupler whose input is intended to be connected to the radiofrequency power supply source and the two outputs, perpendicular to each other, being connected to the inputs of the two power distributors, said distributor thus formed being able to generate circularly polarized signals.
- the coupler is a “top-wall” coupler or a Riblet coupler.
- each power distributor comprises an input angled at 180 degrees connected to two identical transverse branches, each branch being terminated by a bend at 90 degrees connected to an output, so that an input signal propagates in a given direction or separated into two identical output signals propagating in two directions parallel to each other and perpendicular to the given direction.
- the distributor comprises at least one rejector filter.
- each twist comprises an enclosure in the form of a flat quarter cylinder, an inlet angled at 90 degrees and an outlet angled at 90 degrees, the two elbows being arranged head-to-tail.
- the side of the square base of each orthomode transducer is approximately 0.75 times the operating wavelength and in that the height of each orthomode transducer is approximately 0.37 times the operating wavelength.
- the side of the square base of the distributor is equal to approximately 2.24 times the operating wavelength and in that the total height of the distributor is approximately 0.8 times the operating wavelength.
- the frequency associated with the wavelength of use is between 1 and 40 GHz. More precisely, the frequency associated with the wavelength of use is between 10.7 and 12.75 GHz or between 17.2 and 20.2 GHz.
- the transducer operates in transmission.
- the same transducer can operate in reception.
- the figure 1 shows a three-dimensional exploded view of a first configuration of the distributor according to the invention.
- This first configuration includes a “top-wall” type coupler. This view is oriented in a plane (x, y, z).
- This distributor has several superimposed stages.
- the top floor is the emission floor. It comprises four identical orthomode transducers 10 metallic and of substantially parallelepipedal shape with a square base, each transducer comprising a lower face 12 and an upper face 11 of emission and four lateral faces 13, the assembly defining a cavity.
- the side of the square base of each orthomode transducer is approximately 0.75 times the operating wavelength and the height of each orthomode transducer is approximately 0.37 times the operating wavelength.
- Each transducer may include a central adaptation element in the form of a cone or pyramid or in the form of cylinders of different diameters stacked or parallelepipeds with square bases of different surfaces stacked. The function of these elements is to improve the adaptation of the transducer over a determined operating frequency band and to improve the isolation between two polarizations.
- each transducer comprises on each of two adjacent lateral faces a metallic waveguide connected to the underside of the transducer, the output of said waveguide being made through the top of the transducer.
- Each waveguide therefore comprises two bends separated by a plane guide, a first 16 at 90 degree bend connected to the underside of the transducer, a second 17 at 90 degree bend located at the top of the transducer.
- the height of a waveguide is close to that of a transducer.
- the four transducers are arranged to form a square.
- Each transducer is connected to its two neighbors by two T-shaped junctions 20 perpendicular to each other, each junction being connected by the two branches of the T to the tops of two waveguides, the set of four junctions forming a Greek cross centered on the square of the transducers as seen on the figure 3 .
- Two junctions are arranged along the x axis and two junctions are arranged along the y axis in this figure. The junctions are called “plane E” junctions.
- the bases of the junctions are at the level of the bases of the orthomode transducers as seen on the figure 2 .
- the stage located under the upper stage of the distributor is shown in the sectional view of the figure 4 . Its function is to facilitate the injection of transmission signals into the four junctions. In fact, as arranged in a cross, it is not convenient to inject phase transmission signals inside the junctions.
- This stage comprises four identical twists 30, two power distributors 41 and 42 and the coupler 50. These different elements are represented by different hatching on the diagram. figure 4 .
- the figure 5 represents a three-dimensional view of a twist 30 according to the invention.
- Each twist 30 has an enclosure 31 in the form of a flat quarter cylinder, an inlet 32 angled at 90 degrees and an outlet 33 bent at 90 degrees, with both elbows placed head to tail.
- the four inputs of the emission signals at the input of the twists are arranged on the sides of the large square formed by the four orthomode transducers so as to form two pairs of two orthogonal inputs between them.
- Each power distributor has an inlet angled at 180 degrees connected to two identical transverse branches, each branch being terminated by a bend at 90 degrees connected to an outlet, so that an input signal propagating in a given direction is separated into two identical output signals propagating in two directions parallel to each other and perpendicular to the given direction.
- the paths followed by the emission signals are perfectly identical.
- the four orthomode transducers emit four signals in phase with the same polarization.
- the output signals have a linear polarization arranged at 90 degrees from the previous one. All of these signals are also in phase.
- the figure 6 shows a top view of the propagation of the linear polarization of the signals in the four transducers 10.
- the signals from the first distributor are represented by white arrows and the signals from the second distributor by black arrows.
- the distributor comprises a flat top-wall coupler 50, the input of which is connected to the radiofrequency power supply source and the two outputs perpendicular to each other connected to the inputs of the two power distributors, said distributor thus formed is suitable. generating circularly polarized signals.
- the figure 7 represents a partial exploded view of such a distributor in the coordinate system (x, y, z). In this view, the orthomode transducers are not shown.
- the propagation of the signal through the various components 20, 30, 41, 42 and 50 of the distributor is represented by gray chevrons.
- the figure 8 shows a second configuration of the distributor according to the invention.
- the top-wall coupler is replaced by a Riblet 51 coupler.
- this coupler has two inputs and two outputs. A signal injected into one of the two inputs is distributed over the two outputs into two components of the same level but out of phase by 90 °.
- the figure 9 shows a third configuration of the distributor according to the invention.
- the power distributor according to the invention includes rejection filters 53 so that the transmitted signal does not pollute the reception signal.
- These filters have the form of regularly spaced metal slots and arranged perpendicular to the propagation of the signal.
- the distributors according to the invention can operate in a frequency band of between 1 and 40 GHz, which corresponds to an operating wavelength of between 7.5 and 300 millimeters. More precisely, the frequency can belong to the so-called “Ku-Tx” or “Ka-Tx” transmission bands intended for satellite transmissions.
- the Ku-Tx band is between 10.7 and 12.75 GHz, which corresponds to an operating wavelength between 23 and 28 millimeters.
- the second Ka-Tx band is between 17.2 and 20.2 GHz, which corresponds to a wavelength of use between 15 and 17 millimeters.
- the power of the power source may be greater than 60 watts.
- the geometry of the splitter ensures very low returns to the emission source, generally less than -20 dB and very good insulation between the inputs of the “top-wall” coupler and the accesses to the orthomode transducers. These isolations are greater than 20 dB.
