Harvey, Boston, Mass., and Louise Buchwalter, Winnetka, Ill., assiguors, by mesne assignments, to the United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy Application January 5, 1946, Serial N 0. 639,279
7 Claims. (Cl. 343-770) This invention relates in general to antennas and particularly to an antenna for radiating circularly polarized energy in a pancake beam pattern.
In the radio beacon art circular polarization is desirable in order to facilitate the reception of transmitted energy by an antenna having any polarization. Also, energy polarized in one plane only may be absorbed by obstructions in the air or on the surface of the earth and thereby produce blind spots in the region about the antenna. Circularly polarized energy will be less apt to have such blind spots. Further, circularly polarized energy may be received by a polarized antenna regardless of its orientation. It is further desired that the radiation pattern of beacon antennas have non-directional characteristics in a horizontal plane and relatively narrow angle characteristics in a vertical plane; this pattern is hereinafter referred to as a pancake beam pattern.
An object of this invention is to provide an antenna that will radiate circularly polarized electromagnetic energy.
Another object of this invention is to provide an antenna that will collect electromagnetic energy radiated from an antenna of any polarization.
A further object of this invention is to provide an antenna that will produce a pancake beam pattern.
A still further object of this invention is to provide an antenna that will be simple and inexpensive to construct, light in weight and small in size, and easy to install, adjust and maintain.
Other and further objects will become apparent upon a careful consideration of the following specification when taken in consideration with the accompanying drawing, the sole figure of which shows a portion of an antenna constructed in accordance with this invention.
Referring more specifically to the drawing, a portion of a coaxial line 10 adapted to conduct a longitudinally traveling wave of electromagnetic energy in a direction 20 is shown having an inner conductor 11 and an outer conductor 12, said conductors being separated by polystyrene or other suitable dielectric 15. Elongated slots of similar length, enlarged at the ends for ease of manufacture and to increase their electrical length, are cut in the outer conductor 12. Certain ones of said aforementioned slots are arranged in a first group of first and second adjacent rows of slots 13 and 14, each row consisting of, for example, seven slots substantially evenly and circumferentially spaced about the outer conductor 12 in respective planes transverse to the direction of the longitudinally traveling wave. The first row of slots 13 is longitudinally spaced from the second row of slots 14 by a distance between slot centers substantially equal to one-quarter of the wavelength first row and the slots 14 of said second row are disposed substantially at an angle of 45 and 135 respectively 2,756,421 Patented July 24, 1956 ice to the direction 20 of the longitudinally traveling wave of the coaxial line 10, thus the slots 13 of said first row are substantially mutually perpendicular to the slots 14 of said second row. Additional similar groups of two adjacent rows of slots, such as 16, 17, and 18, 19, may be arranged longitudinally along the outer conductor 12 at a distance between corresponding elements of said groups substantially equal to one Wavelength, Ag, of energy in the coaxial line 10, to form an antenna in accordance with the invention. For example, an antenna having twelve such groups in which each row has seven slots has been found to provide a satisfactory pancake beam pattern for beacon use.
In operation the coaxial line 10 is usually vertically' mounted and fed with a longitudinally traveling wave of electromagnetic energy by conventional means. The rows of slots 13 and 14 are mutually perpendicular and, as they are spaced longitudinally along the outer conductor 12 a distance between slot centers equal to onequarter wavelength,
are excited out of phase an electrical by energy in the coaxial line 10. As is well known in the art, when two radiating elements are physically disposed at an angle of 90 and electromagnetically energized out of phase an electrical 90, circularly polarized radiation is obtained.
Additional groups of two adjacent rows of slots, such as 16, 17 and 18, 19, being spaced one wavelength apart longitudinally along the line 10, will all radiate circularly polarized energy in phase with one another. As the length of the wave in the line 10 is approximately equal to or slightly less than the length of the wave in free space, radiation from the vertically disposed groups will combine to provide a very narrow radiation pattern in the vertical plane, while the pattern in a horizontal plane is essentially non-directional. this is a pancake beam pattern.
Although this invention has been shown and described in a specific antenna using a dielectric filled coaxial line producing a pancake pattern beam of circularly polarized energy, it is obvious that this invention may be modified in many Ways, for example, by the use of hollow wave guide. It may be further modified to produce other radiation array patterns. Therefore, it is understood that this invention is not to be limited except as required by the prior art and the spirit of the appended claims.
