APPARATUS FOR THE RADIATION OB RECEPTION 0F ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVES 'Filed May 19. 1944 Patented Jan. 18, 1949 APPARATUS FOR THE RADIATION R RE- CEPTION OF ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVES Edward Cecil Cork and Michael Bowman-Manifold, Ealing, London, England, assignors to Electric & Musical Industries Limited, Hayes, England, a company of Great Britain Application May 19, 1944; Serial No. 536,324 In Great Britain May 21, 1943 6 Claims.
1 This inventionrelates to apparatus for the radiation or reception of electromagnetic waves. It is sometimes a requirement to provide a radiating or receiving element of electromagnetic waves which possesses at least in one plane a directivity pattern like that of a dipole element but not at the same time possessing the marked frequency selectivity of such an element. A
simple way of obtaining a radiating or receiving element that is markedly unselective is to employ for the purpose a portion of electromagnetic guide open at one end, at which end electromagnetic waves may be radiated or received. Such devices are known commonly as electromagnetic horns or wave-guide aerials. However, as commonly employed, radiating or receiving elements of this kind are bulky as compared with a dipole element and have directivity patterns sharper than that of a dipole. It is an object of the present invention to provide a radiating or receiving element of electromagnetic guide character in which these difiiculties are overcome.
Thus, according to a feature of the invention, there is provided transmitting or receiving apparatus for the radiation or reception of electromagnetic waves or" a given wavelength comprising a radiating or receiving element in the form of a tubular conductor having dimensions in a plane lying transversely of said conductor which in one direction are small compared with those in a direction perpendicular thereto, the ratio ofsaid dimensions being at least twelve to one with the smaller dimensions no larger than one-sixth of the wavelength of the transmitted or received I waves. The apparatus operates to radiate or receive electromagnetic waves polarised so that the electric component of force lies in the direction of said small dimensions. Waves of the H10 mode are. then set up in the space enclosed by said tubular conductor. The directivity pattern of the apparatus in a plane parallel with the electric component force is a single lobe substantially as is obtained with a dipole, but is more concentrated in a plane normal to the electric component of force depending upon the magnitude of the larger dimensions of cross-section of said tubular conductor. By choosing these dimensions sufliciently large a very high degree of directivity may be obtained in the latter plane. On the other hand, if said dimensions are chosen to be substantially one-half wavelength at the operating frequency then the directivity in said latter plane is not appreciably different from the broad lobe of a dipole. As will be explained more fully later it is possible to provide an aerial according to the invention pact character. 7 Radiating elements as just described are suitable when arranged in an array for providing-a directivity pattern in a given plane which is substantially uniform in all directions. I I
Thus, according to another feature of the invention there is provided apparatus for the radiation of electromagnetic waves comprising a plurality of radiating elements each in the form of a tubular conductor having dimensions in a plane lying transversely of said conductor which in one direction are small compared with those in a direction perpendicular thereto, said radiating elements being radially arranged so that said waves Will be radiated by said apparatus substantially uniformly inall directions in a plane. Such apparatus may be arranged to radiate waves having the electric component of force lying parallel to said plane or, normal thereto. Since wave-guide radiators are highly unselective such apparatus is particularly suitable for radiating Waves of a wide range of frequencies as in television transmission. s
In the use of electromagnetic horns or waveguide aerials it is found that. the directivity diof highly comagrams may be distorted or may tend to be un- V stable. For example, in apparatus where a single hollow conducting element is employed there may occur in the directivity diagram beside the single forwardly-directed lobe other lobes which are directed backwardly. Such other lobes may be undesirable. These difficulties arise by reason of the setting up of currents of operating frequency on the rim or exterior surface of the hollow conducting element. It is a further object of the invention to overcome orreduce this difiicul'ty.
According therefore to a further feature of the invention there is provided a wave-guide trans: mitting or receiving aerial comprising a tubular conductonwherein in order to attenuate currents of a certain frequency at the rim of said con ductor a further conductor is provided electrical,-
ly connected to said tubular conductor and sub stantially surrounding the latter in such a man.- ner as to present a high impedance tov said cur.- rents at said rim.
In order that the invention may be clearly understood and readily carried into effect, embodiments of the invention will now be described by, way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which Eli-sure l shows. the invention in. simpleform.
with the radiating or receiving element in association with a coaxial line feeder, and
Figures 2 and 3 illustrate forms consisting of four elements and suitable for giving a circular diagram such as is required in broadcasting.
Referring to Figure l, the radiating or receiving element is indicated by the reference numeral l and consists essentially of a tubular conductor of rectangular cross-section free to radiate or receive electromagnetic waves at its open end II, but electrically short-circuited at its other end l2. It will be seen from the figure that the element [0 has dimensions in cross-section with which in one direction are small compared with those in a direction perpendicular thereto. The greater of the two dimensions of cross-section is shown vertically in Figure 1 and the ratio of the larger to the smaller dimension of said crosssection is twelve to one or greater. The greater dimension is a half wavelength or more at the operating frequency, whilst the smaller dimension is shown horizontally and is not greater than one-sixth of a wavelength and is preferably of the order of an eighth of a wavelength or less. Energy is fed to or removed from the element ID by means of the coaxial feeder line I 3 which enters at one of the larger sides of the element ID at the point l4, and the inner conductor I 5 is continued into the space within the element in, as shown at l6, so as to be capable of exciting waves of the H mode in the space. Preferably, the exposed continuation I6 is tuned to resonance at the operating frequency by means of a short length of coaxial line in a manner that will be explained more fully with reference to Figure 2. Since the radiation resistance of the continuation l6 depends not only upon the dimensions of crosssection of the element 1 0, but also on the distance of the element 16 from the reflecting end surface at the closed end i2 of the element [0 and from the sides of lesser dimensions, proper matching of the feeder l3 to the element I0 may be achieved by suitable location of the point of entry of the feeder into the side of the element I I). Said point of entry may be located at a distance of approximately one-quarter of a guide wavelength from the reflecting end of the element ID to provide suitable matching of said feeder to said element. The portion of the tubular conductor [0 lying in front of the feeder may be of any length or may be omitted. For the purpose of reducing the physical dimensions of the arrangement or for preventing the entry of moisture of other deleterious matter into the aerial, the space within the element I 0 may be filled With a dielectric material such as the material known by the registered trade-mark Polythene. The arrangement may thereby be rendered highly compact.
In order to reduce the tendency for the aerial toset up currents at the operating frequency on the rim or exterior surface of the conductor 10, a further conductor" is provided surrounding the conductor l0 and electrically connected thereto. The effective length of said conductor II, he, its length from the open end of the conductor l0 towards its rear is a quarter of a wavelength at the operating frequency so asto present a high impedance to currents at the operating frequency.
The directional diagram of the aerial is a single lobe pointing in the direction of the open end II of the element [0. In the plane of the electric vector, which is the plane of the lesser dimension of cross-section of the element 10 the lobe is broad and gradually reduces to a minimum in the direction of the closed end of the element. In the plane of the magnetic vector which is vertical with the particular disposition of the figure there is a much greater directivity which depends on the greater dimension of cross-section of the element ID. The nature of this directivity is indicated by the following table in which values of the greater dimension are given in the left-hand column and in the right-hand column the corresponding values of gain as compared with a dipole:
/2 \1.1 A3.0 fil\4.4-. 276.8
These values can be obtained with the smaller dimension of cross-section equal to an eighth of a wavelength and when rim currents at the open end of the element I0 are attenuated by the conductor II.
In Figure 2 there is shown a radially-disposed arrangement of elements 20 similar to the element l0 described with reference to Figure l and joined to form a cruciform structure. The elements 20 have their greater dimension of cross-section lying in the plane of the cruciform. This dimension is of the order of the operating wavelength so as to give directive diagrams to the individual elements 20 that add up to provide a substantially uniform diagram in said plane. Arranged so that the cruciform lies horizontally, as shown in the figure, the aerial is thus suitable for broadcast transmission with a vertical polarisation. Rim currents at the open ends of the elements 20 may be attenuated by quarter wavelength conductors (not shown but similar to that indicated in Figure 1 by the reference numeral I 1). Waves of H10 mode are excited in the elements 20 by means of an energising element 22 similar to that designated at I6 in Figure 1 and arranged normal to the plane of the cruciform at the centre thereof. The element 22 is a continuation of the coaxial feeding line 2|. In order to tune the energising element 22 to resonance at the operating frequency as is desirable, there is provided a further portion 23 of coaxial line the outer conductor of which is connected to the contacting surface of the cruciform and the inner conductor of which is an extension of the energising element 22.
In order to provide a radiator of horizontal polarisation suitable for broadcast transmission, a cruciform structure may be formed of four radially-arranged radiating elements 24 having their greater dimension of cross-section lying vertically instead of horizontally, as in Figure 2. Such an arrangement is illustrated in Figure 3. Each radiating element is provided with an energising element 25 and these elements consist of the bent end portions of a feeding structure comprising four radial arms connected to the inner conductor of the coaxial line 21. The feeding structure is arranged to lie in the mid-plane of the cruciform. The feeding structure is tuned to resonance at the operating frequency by the provision of the further portion of coaxial line 23 after the manner of the like arrangement of Figure 2. As with the arrangement of Figure 2, quarter-Wave conductors I! may be provided at the open ends of the radiating elements (these not however being shown in the figure) In any of the above arrangements the radiating elements may be flared out towards their openings and they may also be fed by guide type feeders instead of coaxial lines as described.
