Description

本発明は、例えば、平面の高周波アンテナ等を含む高周波基板を固定して特性を計測する際に使用される高周波基板固定治具および高周波基板の特性測定方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a high-frequency substrate fixing jig and a method for measuring characteristics of a high-frequency substrate that are used when, for example, a high-frequency substrate including a planar high-frequency antenna is fixed to measure characteristics.

近年、無線通信の高速化に伴い、無線通信を行う電子機器の高性能化が求められている。また、携帯のし易さから、電子機器の小型化が急速に進行している。さらに、通信による無線容量が急激に大容量化し、これに伴う伝送信号の周波数の広帯域化、高周波化が急速に進行している。そのため、電子機器の使用周波数帯域についても、従来のマイクロ波帯(0.3〜300GHz)だけでは対応できず、ミリ波(30〜300GHz)まで拡大されつつある。   In recent years, with the increase in speed of wireless communication, there has been a demand for higher performance of electronic devices that perform wireless communication. In addition, downsizing of electronic devices is progressing rapidly due to ease of carrying. Furthermore, the radio capacity due to communication is rapidly increasing, and the accompanying increase in the frequency and frequency of transmission signals is rapidly progressing. For this reason, the use frequency band of electronic devices cannot be handled only by the conventional microwave band (0.3 to 300 GHz), and is being expanded to millimeter waves (30 to 300 GHz).

そのような背景から、電子機器に搭載されるアンテナの高性能化、並びにアンテナ前段の回路素子、例えば増幅器、フィルタ、スイッチおよび電力分配器などの高特性化が強く求められている。とりわけ、無線通信に用いられるアンテナについては、周波数が高くなるにつれて、導体損や誘電体損が顕著に影響してくる。このため、アンテナ等の素子への低損失の要求も高まっている。   From such a background, there is a strong demand for higher performance of antennas mounted on electronic devices and higher characteristics of circuit elements, such as amplifiers, filters, switches, and power distributors, in front of the antennas. In particular, for antennas used for wireless communication, conductor loss and dielectric loss are significantly affected as the frequency increases. For this reason, the request | requirement of the low loss to elements, such as an antenna, is also increasing.

アンテナの低損失化を実現する方法の一つとして、アンテナを構成する材料に、液晶ポリマーや石英ガラス等の低損失なものを用いることが考えられる。とりわけ、基板材料としての石英は、誘電正接が0.00025と液晶ポリマーの0.003に比べて大幅に小さく、誘電損失を大幅に軽減することができる。   As one method for realizing a reduction in antenna loss, it is conceivable to use a low-loss material such as a liquid crystal polymer or quartz glass as a material constituting the antenna. In particular, quartz as a substrate material has a dielectric loss tangent of 0.00025, which is significantly smaller than 0.003 of a liquid crystal polymer, and can greatly reduce dielectric loss.

また、石英は光の透過性が高く、基板上にIC等をフリップチップ実装する場合など、通常、基板端子部を上面から確認できないような実装方法においても、基板端子部を確認しながら実装できるとうメリットを有する。そのため、石英基板は、ミリ波のような高周波帯域用の素子を構成する場合に非常に有効である。   Quartz is highly light transmissive and can be mounted while confirming the substrate terminal even in a mounting method in which the substrate terminal cannot normally be confirmed from the top surface, such as when flip-chip mounting an IC or the like on the substrate. It has a merit. Therefore, the quartz substrate is very effective when constituting an element for a high frequency band such as a millimeter wave.

ところで、例えば平面の高周波アンテナを含む高周波基板については、高周波基板を高周波基板固定治具の所定の測定位置に固定した状態にて特性の計測が行われる。一方、石英基板には、表面や内部に欠陥が存在しているため、応力分布が存在している。したがって、石英基板を含む高周波基板は、外部からの大きな応力が印加されると、応力分布が変化して破壊され易いという問題がある。   By the way, for example, for a high-frequency substrate including a planar high-frequency antenna, characteristics are measured in a state where the high-frequency substrate is fixed at a predetermined measurement position of a high-frequency substrate fixing jig. On the other hand, since the quartz substrate has defects on the surface and inside, there is a stress distribution. Therefore, the high-frequency substrate including the quartz substrate has a problem that when a large external stress is applied, the stress distribution changes and is easily broken.

そのため、石英基板を破壊せずに機械的に固定する方法が求められる。例えば、ねじにて石英基板を固定する場合、石英基板に形成するねじ穴には高い直線性が求められる。また、ねじがねじ穴に接触した場合、応力が形成され石英基板が破壊される恐れがある。そのため、石英基板にねじ穴を形成することなく、石英基板を機械的に固定する治具が求められる。   Therefore, a method for mechanically fixing the quartz substrate without breaking it is required. For example, when a quartz substrate is fixed with a screw, high linearity is required for a screw hole formed in the quartz substrate. Further, when the screw comes into contact with the screw hole, there is a risk that stress is formed and the quartz substrate is destroyed. Therefore, a jig for mechanically fixing the quartz substrate without forming a screw hole in the quartz substrate is required.

例えば、特許文献1には、高周波基板固定治具として、内部に測定用の基板を有する容器形状のケースと、ケースの上にねじによって固定される、アルミニウム等の金属製の蓋部とを有するデバイス測定用ソケットが開示されている。上記蓋部には、高周波デバイスをケース内に収納して蓋部を閉じた場合に、蓋部から高周波デバイスの上面を露出させる貫通穴が形成されている。   For example, Patent Document 1 includes a container-shaped case having a measurement substrate inside as a high-frequency substrate fixing jig, and a lid made of metal such as aluminum that is fixed on the case with a screw. A device measurement socket is disclosed. The lid portion is formed with a through hole that exposes the upper surface of the high-frequency device from the lid portion when the high-frequency device is housed in the case and the lid portion is closed.

このデバイス測定用ソケットを使用して高周波デバイスの特性を測定する場合には、ケース内の基板の上に高周波デバイスを配置し、高周波デバイスの上から蓋部をケースにねじ止めし、蓋部によって高周波デバイスを基板上に押圧するようになっている。これにより、高周波デバイスがケース内において固定される。   When measuring the characteristics of a high-frequency device using this device measurement socket, place the high-frequency device on the substrate in the case, screw the lid from the top of the high-frequency device to the case, and use the lid to The high frequency device is pressed onto the substrate. Thereby, the high frequency device is fixed in the case.

WO00/04394号公報(2000年1月27日公開)WO 00/04394 (released January 27, 2000)

しかしながら、特許文献1のように、高周波デバイスを蓋部により上から押圧して固定する構成では、高周波基板の上に蓋部が存在するため、蓋部が高周波基板の放射特性等に影響を及ぼすことになり、特性を正確に測定することができない。   However, as in Patent Document 1, in the configuration in which the high-frequency device is pressed and fixed from above by the lid portion, since the lid portion exists on the high-frequency substrate, the lid portion affects the radiation characteristics of the high-frequency substrate. As a result, the characteristics cannot be measured accurately.

また、高周波基板の特性の測定時に、基板にたわみが生じて高周波基板の特性が変化し、特性を正確に測定できない恐れがある。さらには、基板が石英基板である場合には割れを生じる可能性がある。   Further, when measuring the characteristics of the high frequency substrate, the substrate may bend and the characteristics of the high frequency substrate may change, and the characteristics may not be measured accurately. Furthermore, if the substrate is a quartz substrate, there is a possibility of cracking.

したがって、本発明は、高周波基板に変形や割れを与えることなく、かつ高周波特性への影響が低い状態にて高周波基板を固定することができる高周波基板固定治具および高周波基板の特性測定方法の提供を目的としている。   Therefore, the present invention provides a high-frequency substrate fixing jig and a method for measuring the characteristics of a high-frequency substrate that can fix the high-frequency substrate without causing deformation or cracking of the high-frequency substrate and having a low influence on the high-frequency characteristics. It is an object.

上記の課題を解決するために、本発明の高周波基板固定治具は、特性の測定対象の高周波基板を固定する高周波基板固定治具において、貫通孔である吸引孔を有し、前記吸引孔の上端が、上面の前記高周波基板の配置位置に開口され、下端が下面に開口されている治具基板と、前記治具基板の下面における前記吸引孔の下端の位置に設けられ、空気を吸引する吸引装置が接続される吸引パッドとを備えていることを特徴としている。   In order to solve the above-described problems, a high-frequency substrate fixing jig according to the present invention is a high-frequency substrate fixing jig for fixing a high-frequency substrate whose characteristics are to be measured. An upper end is provided at a position where the high-frequency substrate is disposed on the upper surface and a lower end is opened on the lower surface, and a lower end of the suction hole on the lower surface of the jig substrate is provided to suck air. And a suction pad to which a suction device is connected.

上記の構成によれば、特性の測定対象の高周波基板は、治具基板の上面の配置位置、例えば測定位置に配置される。配置位置には、貫通孔である吸引孔の上端が開口され、吸引孔の下端は治具基板の下面に開口されている。吸引パッドは、治具基板の下面における前記吸引孔の下端の位置に設けられ、吸引装置と吸引孔とを接続する。この状態において、吸引装置が動作すると、治具基板上の高周波基板は下面が吸引されて治具基板上の配置位置に固定される。   According to said structure, the high frequency board | substrate of the property measurement object is arrange | positioned in the arrangement position of the upper surface of a jig | tool board | substrate, for example, a measurement position. At the arrangement position, the upper end of the suction hole which is a through hole is opened, and the lower end of the suction hole is opened on the lower surface of the jig substrate. The suction pad is provided at the lower end of the suction hole on the lower surface of the jig substrate, and connects the suction device and the suction hole. In this state, when the suction device is operated, the lower surface of the high-frequency substrate on the jig substrate is sucked and fixed to the arrangement position on the jig substrate.

これにより、本高周波基板固定治具では、測定対象の高周波基板の上に、高周波基板の特性に影響を与える部材が存在しないので、本高周波基板固定治具を使用することにより、高周波基板の特性を正確に測定することができる。   As a result, in this high frequency substrate fixing jig, there is no member that affects the characteristics of the high frequency substrate on the high frequency substrate to be measured. Can be measured accurately.

また、吸引装置の吸引動作にて、高周波基板を治具基板上の配置位置に固定するようになっているので、高周波基板に与える負荷を、変形や割れを生じることなく高周波基板を治具基板上に固定できる適当な負荷に容易に調整することができる。   In addition, the suction operation of the suction device fixes the high-frequency substrate to the arrangement position on the jig substrate, so that the load applied to the high-frequency substrate is not deformed or cracked. It can be easily adjusted to a suitable load that can be fixed on top.

したがって、高周波基板に変形や割れを与えることなく、かつ高周波特性への影響が低い状態にて高周波基板を固定することができる。   Therefore, it is possible to fix the high frequency substrate in a state where the high frequency substrate is not deformed or cracked and the influence on the high frequency characteristics is low.

上記の高周波基板固定治具において、前記治具基板は、貫通孔である電磁波入力孔を有し、前記電磁波入力孔の上端が、前記高周波基板の配置位置における前記高周波基板の電磁波の入力部と対向する位置に開口され、下端が下面に開口され、前記治具基板の下面における前記電磁波入力孔の下端の位置に、前記高周波基板の測定装置が接続される導波管が設けられている構成としてもよい。   In the above high-frequency substrate fixing jig, the jig substrate has an electromagnetic wave input hole that is a through hole, and an upper end of the electromagnetic wave input hole is an electromagnetic wave input portion of the high-frequency substrate at a position where the high-frequency substrate is disposed. A configuration in which a waveguide that is opened at an opposing position, a lower end is opened at a lower surface, and a measurement device for the high-frequency substrate is connected to a lower end position of the electromagnetic wave input hole on the lower surface of the jig substrate It is good.

上記の構成によれば、測定装置から出力された高周波信号すなわち電磁波は、導波管および治具基板の電磁波入力孔を介して、治具基板の配置位置に配置された高周波基板の電磁波の入力部に入力される。   According to the above configuration, the high-frequency signal, that is, the electromagnetic wave output from the measuring apparatus is input to the electromagnetic wave of the high-frequency substrate disposed at the position of the jig substrate via the electromagnetic wave input hole of the waveguide and the jig substrate. Is input to the department.

これにより、高周波基板に入力される電磁波がミリ波等の高周波の場合であっても、同軸ケーブルを使用した場合に生じる半田付け等による伝送損失を抑制し、伝送損失を低くすることができる。   As a result, even when the electromagnetic wave input to the high frequency substrate is a high frequency wave such as a millimeter wave, transmission loss due to soldering or the like that occurs when a coaxial cable is used can be suppressed and the transmission loss can be reduced.

上記の高周波基板固定治具は、前記高周波基板における第1の辺、および前記第1の辺に隣り合う第2の辺が当接されることにより、前記高周波基板を位置決めするL字形の位置決め部材を備えている構成としてもよい。   The above high-frequency substrate fixing jig includes an L-shaped positioning member that positions the high-frequency substrate by contacting a first side of the high-frequency substrate and a second side adjacent to the first side. It is good also as a structure provided with.

上記の構成によれば、高周波基板の第1の辺、および第1の辺に隣り合う第2の辺を位置決め部材に当接させた状態として、高周波基板を所定の配置位置に容易に位置決めすることができる。   According to the above configuration, the high-frequency board is easily positioned at a predetermined arrangement position with the first side of the high-frequency board and the second side adjacent to the first side in contact with the positioning member. be able to.

本発明の高周波基板の特性測定方法は、特性の測定対象の高周波基板を治具基板上に固定して測定する高周波基板の特性測定方法において、前記治具基板は、貫通孔である吸引孔を有し、前記吸引孔の上端が、上面の前記高周波基板の配置位置に開口され、下端が下面に開口されており、前記治具基板の下面における前記吸引孔の下端から空気を吸引して、前記高周波基板を前記配置位置に固定して前記高周波基板の特性を測定することを特徴としている。   The method for measuring characteristics of a high-frequency substrate according to the present invention is a method for measuring characteristics of a high-frequency substrate in which a high-frequency substrate to be measured is fixed on a jig substrate, and the jig substrate has a suction hole which is a through hole. And the upper end of the suction hole is opened at the arrangement position of the high-frequency substrate on the upper surface, the lower end is opened on the lower surface, air is sucked from the lower end of the suction hole on the lower surface of the jig substrate, The high frequency substrate is fixed to the arrangement position, and the characteristics of the high frequency substrate are measured.

The vacuum pump 52 is connected to the suction pad 15 provided on the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 1 by an air pipe 55. The horn antenna 53 is disposed above the high-frequency substrate 2 disposed on the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 1. A waveguide 56 is connected to the horn antenna 53, and a coaxial / waveguide converter 57 is provided at the end of the waveguide 56.

(特性測定装置3の動作)
上記の構成において、特性測定装置3を使用した高周波基板2の特性の測定方法について説明する。
(Operation of the characteristic measuring device 3)
A method for measuring the characteristics of the high-frequency substrate 2 using the characteristic measuring apparatus 3 in the above configuration will be described.

アンテナパターン42を備える高周波基板2の特性を測定する場合には、図5に示した特性測定装置3において、高周波基板固定治具1の上に高周波基板2を配置する。この場合、高周波基板2は、アンテナパターン42が上になり、接続窓44側の短辺およびその短辺と連続する一方の長辺が位置決め部材12と当接するように配置する。これにより、高周波基板2は、治具基板11上の所定の測定位置(配置位置)に容易に位置決めされる。高周波基板2が高周波基板固定治具1の測定位置に位置決めされた状態では、高周波基板2の接続窓44の位置と高周波基板固定治具1の導波管13の端部の開口部の位置とが一致している。   When measuring the characteristics of the high-frequency substrate 2 including the antenna pattern 42, the high-frequency substrate 2 is disposed on the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 1 in the characteristic measuring apparatus 3 shown in FIG. 5. In this case, the high-frequency board 2 is arranged such that the antenna pattern 42 is on the upper side and the short side on the connection window 44 side and one long side continuous with the short side are in contact with the positioning member 12. As a result, the high frequency substrate 2 is easily positioned at a predetermined measurement position (arrangement position) on the jig substrate 11. In a state where the high-frequency substrate 2 is positioned at the measurement position of the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 1, the position of the connection window 44 of the high-frequency substrate 2 and the position of the opening at the end of the waveguide 13 of the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 1 Match.

次に、真空ポンプ52を動作させる。これにより、治具基板11の吸引孔24、吸着パッド15および空気管路55を介して、高周波基板2の背面が真空ポンプ52により吸引され、高周波基板2が上記測定位置に固定される。   Next, the vacuum pump 52 is operated. Thereby, the back surface of the high frequency substrate 2 is sucked by the vacuum pump 52 through the suction hole 24, the suction pad 15 and the air pipe 55 of the jig substrate 11, and the high frequency substrate 2 is fixed to the measurement position.

また、上記の状態において、ネットワークアナライザ51の出力端子51aから高周波信号が出力されると、この高周波信号は、同軸ケーブル54を介して同軸/導波管変換器14に入力され、電磁波に変換される。この電磁波は、導波管13および治具基板11の電磁波入力孔23を介して接続窓44から高周波基板2へ入力される。これにより、高周波基板2のアンテナパターン42から電磁波が放射される。   In the above state, when a high frequency signal is output from the output terminal 51a of the network analyzer 51, the high frequency signal is input to the coaxial / waveguide converter 14 via the coaxial cable 54 and converted into electromagnetic waves. The This electromagnetic wave is input from the connection window 44 to the high-frequency substrate 2 through the waveguide 13 and the electromagnetic wave input hole 23 of the jig substrate 11. Thereby, electromagnetic waves are radiated from the antenna pattern 42 of the high-frequency substrate 2.

高周波基板2から放射された電磁波は、ホーンアンテナ53にて受信され、導波管56を介して同軸/導波管変換器57へ入力され、高周波信号に変換される。この高周波信号は、同軸ケーブル58、特性測定装置3の入力端子51bを介してネットワークアナライザ51へ入力され、ネットワークアナライザ51にて高周波基板2の特性が計測される。   The electromagnetic wave radiated from the high-frequency substrate 2 is received by the horn antenna 53, is input to the coaxial / waveguide converter 57 via the waveguide 56, and is converted into a high-frequency signal. This high frequency signal is input to the network analyzer 51 via the coaxial cable 58 and the input terminal 51 b of the characteristic measuring device 3, and the characteristic of the high frequency substrate 2 is measured by the network analyzer 51.

(高周波基板固定治具1の利点)
上記のように、高周波基板2を真空ポンプ52の吸引により治具基板11上に固定する構成は、真空ポンプ52の吸引により高周波基板2に与える負荷を、高周波基板2の変形や、高周波基板2の石英基板41の割れを生じず、高周波基板2を治具基板11に固定できる適当な負荷に容易に調整することができる。
(Advantages of the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 1)
As described above, the configuration in which the high-frequency substrate 2 is fixed on the jig substrate 11 by the suction of the vacuum pump 52 is such that the load applied to the high-frequency substrate 2 by the suction of the vacuum pump 52 is deformed by the high-frequency substrate 2 or the high-frequency substrate 2. The quartz substrate 41 is not cracked and can be easily adjusted to an appropriate load capable of fixing the high-frequency substrate 2 to the jig substrate 11.

したがって、治具基板11上に高周波基板2をねじにて固定する構成や、高周波基板2を上から覆う部材によって上から押圧して固定する構成と比較して、高周波基板2に与える負荷を小さくして、高周波基板2を治具基板11上の測定位置に固定することができる。さらに、高周波基板2の変形が抑制されるので、高周波基板2の特性を正確に測定することができる。   Therefore, the load applied to the high-frequency substrate 2 is smaller than the configuration in which the high-frequency substrate 2 is fixed on the jig substrate 11 with screws or the configuration in which the high-frequency substrate 2 is pressed and fixed from above with a member that covers the high-frequency substrate 2 from above. Thus, the high-frequency substrate 2 can be fixed at the measurement position on the jig substrate 11. Furthermore, since the deformation of the high frequency substrate 2 is suppressed, the characteristics of the high frequency substrate 2 can be accurately measured.

さらに、高周波基板2の上に、高周波基板2の電磁波の放射に影響を与える部材が存在しないので、高周波基板2の特性を正確に測定することができる。   Furthermore, since there is no member that affects the radiation of electromagnetic waves of the high frequency substrate 2 on the high frequency substrate 2, the characteristics of the high frequency substrate 2 can be accurately measured.

なお、位置決め部材12はL字形であることから、異なるサイズの高周波基板2に対応可能である。   In addition, since the positioning member 12 is L-shaped, it can respond to the high-frequency board | substrate 2 of a different size.

(比較例)
図6は、高周波基板固定治具1に対する比較例に係る高周波基板固定治具61を示す斜視図である。図7は、図6におけるB−B線矢視断面図である。
(Comparative example)
FIG. 6 is a perspective view showing a high-frequency substrate fixing jig 61 according to a comparative example with respect to the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 1. 7 is a cross-sectional view taken along line BB in FIG.

高周波基板固定治具61が高周波基板固定治具1と相違する点は、高周波基板2の位置決め方法、および高周波基板2の固定方法である。   The high-frequency substrate fixing jig 61 is different from the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 1 in the positioning method of the high-frequency substrate 2 and the fixing method of the high-frequency substrate 2.

具体的には、図6および図7に示すように、高周波基板固定治具61は、高周波基板固定治具1の位置決め部材12および吸着パッド15に代えて、上カバー部材71を備えている。したがって、治具基板11には吸引孔24が形成されていない。他の構成は、高周波基板固定治具1と同様である。   Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 61 includes an upper cover member 71 instead of the positioning member 12 and the suction pad 15 of the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 1. Therefore, the suction hole 24 is not formed in the jig substrate 11. Other configurations are the same as those of the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 1.

上カバー部材71は、位置決め部材12と同様、ガラスエポキシ基板81の上に銅箔層82が形成され、中央部に露出窓83が形成された構成である。露出窓83は、高周波基板2のアンテナパターン42を露出させるものである。上カバー部材71は、ねじ16にて治具基板11に固定される。   Similar to the positioning member 12, the upper cover member 71 has a configuration in which a copper foil layer 82 is formed on a glass epoxy substrate 81 and an exposure window 83 is formed in the center. The exposure window 83 is for exposing the antenna pattern 42 of the high-frequency substrate 2. The upper cover member 71 is fixed to the jig substrate 11 with screws 16.

上カバー部材71は、治具基板11にねじ止めされた状態において、治具基板11上に配置された高周波基板2を位置決めし、かつ固定するものである。このために、上カバー部材71の露出窓83の部分は、高周波基板2の外形に対応した位置決め部83a、および位置決め部83aにて位置決めされる高周波基板2の上面の周囲を抑え込む押圧部83bを有する二段構造となっている。すなわち、上カバー部材71は、位置決め部83aにて高周波基板2を所定の測定位置に位置決めし、押圧部83bにて高周波基板2を治具基板11に押し付けて固定するようになっている。   The upper cover member 71 positions and fixes the high-frequency substrate 2 disposed on the jig substrate 11 in a state where the upper cover member 71 is screwed to the jig substrate 11. Therefore, the portion of the exposed window 83 of the upper cover member 71 includes a positioning portion 83a corresponding to the outer shape of the high-frequency substrate 2 and a pressing portion 83b that suppresses the periphery of the upper surface of the high-frequency substrate 2 positioned by the positioning portion 83a. It has a two-stage structure. That is, the upper cover member 71 positions the high frequency substrate 2 at a predetermined measurement position by the positioning portion 83a, and presses and fixes the high frequency substrate 2 to the jig substrate 11 by the pressing portion 83b.

上記の高周波基板固定治具61のように、上カバー部材71によって高周波基板2を押圧して測定位置に固定する構成では、高周波基板2に過度の負荷が加わり易く、高周波基板2の石英基板41に割れや変形が生じ易い。このため、高周波基板2が破壊される事態、あるいは高周波基板2が変形して高周波基板2の特性を正確に測定できない恐れがある。また、高周波基板2の周囲の上に上カバー部材71の一部すなわち押圧部83bが存在するので、高周波基板2の放射特性が変化し易くなっている。   In the configuration in which the high frequency substrate 2 is pressed by the upper cover member 71 and fixed at the measurement position like the high frequency substrate fixing jig 61 described above, an excessive load is easily applied to the high frequency substrate 2, and the quartz substrate 41 of the high frequency substrate 2. Are susceptible to cracking and deformation. For this reason, there exists a possibility that the high frequency board | substrate 2 may be destroyed, or the high frequency board | substrate 2 may deform | transform and the characteristic of the high frequency board | substrate 2 cannot be measured correctly. Further, since a part of the upper cover member 71, that is, the pressing portion 83b exists on the periphery of the high-frequency substrate 2, the radiation characteristic of the high-frequency substrate 2 is easily changed.

(比較結果)
本実施の形態の高周波基板固定治具1(図1参照)の有効性を確認するために、図5に示した特性測定装置3を使用して、高周波基板固定治具1と図6に示した高周波基板固定治具61とについて、アンテナ素子の高周波特性への影響について比較した。
(Comparison result)
In order to confirm the effectiveness of the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 1 of this embodiment (see FIG. 1), the characteristic measuring apparatus 3 shown in FIG. 5 is used to show the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 1 and FIG. The high frequency substrate fixing jig 61 was compared in terms of the influence on the high frequency characteristics of the antenna element.

測定対象のアンテナ素子は、図4に示した高周波基板2すなわちマイクロストリップアレーアンテナである。高周波基板2は、石英基板41の厚さが0.5mm、銅箔層43の厚さが35μmであり、60GHz帯で動作するように設計されている。   The antenna element to be measured is the high-frequency substrate 2 shown in FIG. 4, that is, the microstrip array antenna. The high-frequency substrate 2 has a quartz substrate 41 thickness of 0.5 mm and a copper foil layer 43 thickness of 35 μm, and is designed to operate in the 60 GHz band.

比較結果を図8および図9に示す。図8は、高周波基板固定治具1(実施例)を使用した場合および高周波基板固定治具61(比較例)を使用した場合の高周波基板2の反射特性を示すグラフである。図9は、高周波基板固定治具1(実施例)を使用した場合および高周波基板固定治具61(比較例)を使用した場合の高周波基板2の放射特性を示すグラフである。なお、図9において、S11は、反射係数の振幅を表し、アンテナへの電力供給割合の指標となるものである。   The comparison results are shown in FIGS. FIG. 8 is a graph showing the reflection characteristics of the high-frequency substrate 2 when the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 1 (Example) is used and when the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 61 (Comparative Example) is used. FIG. 9 is a graph showing the radiation characteristics of the high-frequency substrate 2 when the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 1 (Example) is used and when the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 61 (Comparative Example) is used. In FIG. 9, S11 represents the amplitude of the reflection coefficient and serves as an index of the power supply ratio to the antenna.

図8から分かるように、反射特性については、高周波基板固定治具1(実施例)と高周波基板固定治具61(比較例)とで、それほど大きな違いが表れていない。しかしながら、図9から分かるように、放射特性については、高周波基板固定治具61(比較例)を使用した場合の放射特性は、高周波基板固定治具1(実施例)を使用した場合の放射特性に対して、大幅に劣化している。したがって、この比較結果により、高周波基板2の上になんらかの部材(上カバー部材71)が設けられない高周波基板固定治具1は、高周波基板2の上になんらかの部材(上カバー部材71)が設けられる高周波基板固定治具61よりもアンテナ特性に与える影響が小さく、アンテナ特性を正確に測定できることが分かった。   As can be seen from FIG. 8, the reflection characteristics are not so different between the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 1 (example) and the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 61 (comparative example). However, as can be seen from FIG. 9, the radiation characteristics when the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 61 (comparative example) is used are the radiation characteristics when the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 1 (example) is used. On the other hand, it has deteriorated significantly. Therefore, according to this comparison result, in the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 1 in which no member (upper cover member 71) is provided on the high-frequency substrate 2, some member (upper cover member 71) is provided on the high-frequency substrate 2. It was found that the influence on the antenna characteristics was smaller than that of the high-frequency substrate fixing jig 61, and the antenna characteristics could be measured accurately.
