In general, a short backfire antenna has a primary radiator, a small reflector, and a large reflector that is about 2 wavelengths in length and width and has a side plate on the outer periphery. For convenience of explanation, we will use the beam width narrower than 1.
The waveguide opening, which is the secondary radiator, is a rectangular waveguide opening and is excited in the fundamental mode. Further, the shapes of the small reflector and the large reflector will be explained as circular flat plates.

In this antenna, radio waves radiated into space from the waveguide opening 4 are reflected and scattered backward by the small reflecting plate 6. The reflected and scattered radio waves are reflected again in front of the antenna by the large reflector 1 and the side plates 2. At this time, the diameter of the large reflecting plate 1 is selected to be approximately 2 wavelengths, the height of the rectangular waveguide opening 4 from the large reflecting plate is selected to be approximately 1/4 wavelength, and the height of the side plate 2 is set to hs.
By adjusting the diameter DR and height hR of the small reflector 5 and setting them to appropriate dimensions, the beam width is narrower than when using a single waveguide aperture, and the side lobe level is low, making it easy to achieve high gain. An antenna having a structure is obtained. In short backfire antennas, h R is usually less than 0.7 wavelength.

The small reflector 6 needs to be fixed above the waveguide opening 4, and a simple method is to use a small reflector 6 made of a material with a low dielectric constant and low loss so as not to disturb the radiation characteristics of the antenna. A method of fixing it on a support base as shown in is used.

Since this small reflection plate is placed just in front of the waveguide opening, the reflected wave incident on the feeding waveguide becomes large, causing an impedance mismatch. Therefore, impedance matching is achieved by attaching irises 5a and 5b near the waveguide opening.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the configuration of a short backfire antenna according to the present invention, in which 1 is a large reflector, 2
is a side plate, 3 is a rectangular waveguide for power feeding, 6 is a small reflection plate,
7 is a dielectric truncated cone which is a small reflective plate supporting dielectric; 8
9 is a circular plane portion, and 9 is a dielectric screw. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the structure of the dielectric truncated cone 7 shown in FIG. 2, and the iris 10 5a and 5b is a rectangular parallelepiped. The dielectric truncated cone 7 is made of a dielectric material with a low dielectric constant and low loss, and a small reflective plate 6 and irises 5a, 5b are deposited on the circular plane part 8 and the rectangular parallelepiped part, respectively. Since there is a dielectric material in front of the waveguide opening, the dimensions of the iris are determined by taking into account its influence on impedance. Impedance matching is achieved by inserting the dielectric truncated cone 7, in which the small reflector 6, the support stand, and the irises 5a and 5b are integrated, into the waveguide opening 4 and fixing it with dielectric screws 9. , a short backfire antenna with a simple structure is obtained.

According to this method, there is no need to go through the two-step process of supporting the small reflector and setting the iris.
Another advantage is that the short backfire antenna can be assembled in a short time. Furthermore, since the waveguide opening is covered with a dielectric truncated cone, it is possible to prevent water droplets from entering the waveguide.

In addition, although the case where the dielectric truncated cone on which the small reflector and iris are vapor-deposited is inserted into the waveguide opening and fixed with dielectric screws has been described above, the present invention is not limited to this, and it is possible to insert only the small reflector. In the case where a vapor-deposited dielectric truncated cone is inserted into the waveguide opening and fixed with metal screws, it can be carried out in exactly the same manner. In this case, the metal screw protruding into the waveguide opening acts as a susceptance element like the iris, so this can be matched by adjusting the length of the part of the metal screw protruding into the waveguide opening. Can be used as an element. In addition, although we have explained the case where the dielectric used for the dielectric truncated cone has a low dielectric constant, we have also explained the case in which the dielectric truncated cone is constructed using a dielectric with a relatively high permittivity and a small reflector is deposited, and the waveguide opening is It can be carried out in exactly the same way when using a dielectric horn type primary radiator inserted into the radiator. Furthermore, when the small reflector and large reflector are made into arbitrary shapes such as rectangles or ellipses, when a circular waveguide is used as the feeding waveguide, or when rectangular feeding waveguides are crossed and the opening is It can be carried out in exactly the same way even when the antenna is made into a cross and a short backfire antenna is used to radiate circularly polarized waves.

As explained above, according to the present invention, the structure is simple and easy to manufacture, and a large number of short backfire antennas with the same characteristics can be manufactured in a few steps.
Furthermore, since the dielectric body provided with the small reflector is fixed with metal screws that protrude into the aperture waveguide, there is a great effect in that the impedance can be easily adjusted.
