WAVE COUPLING ARRANGEMENT Stanley R. Fitzmorris, Baldwinsville, N.Y., assignor to General Electric Company, a corporation of New York This invention relates to wave coupling systems and particularly to arrangements for coupling waves between electrical circuits.
Often times the need arises for coupling electrical waves between two circuits for purposes of comparison, measurement, control, etc. For example, in certain applications it is sometimes desired to withdraw a small amount of radio frequency power from a Waveguide for measurement. Heretofore, the arrangements utilized for these purposes have been found to be relatively bulky and expensive, difficult to construct, or have exhibited certain operational limitations.
Accordingly, it is an object of this invention to provide a novel arrangement for coupling electro-magnetic waves between two circuits,
Another object of this invention is to provide an improved wave coupling arrangement.
Another object of this invention is to provide a novel directional coupler for use with electro-magnetic waves.
Another object of this invention is to provide an improved circuit arrangement adapted for measurement of wave characteristics.
Another object of this invention is toprovide an improved directional coupler for purposes of power measurement.
Another object of this invention is to provide a desired signal processing arrangement.
Still another object of this invention is to provide an improved arrangement for coupling waves between a wave guide and a strip transmission line.
The features of this invention which are believed to be novel are set forth with particularity in the appended claims. The invention and methods of operation, together with further objects and advantages thereof, may best be understood by reference to the following description when taken in connection with the accompanying drawing wherein:
Fig. 1 illustrates inschematic form an arrangement embodying the principles of the invention.
Figs. 2 and 3 illustrate in schematic form further modifications of the present invention.
Fig. 4 illustrates in schematic form a novel sandwich type construction embodying the principles of the invention, and
Fig. 5 illustrates schematically, the application of the invention to circular type wave guide transmission lines.
One application of my invention is with a wave coupler for sampling a desired portion of the energy being propagated in a main waveguide and coupling it by means of an auxiliary transmission line to an electrical circuit. The auxiliary transmission line employs strip construction and impedance matching elements in a form adapted to receive energy from a coupler circuit which comprises apertures or slots in a wall of the main waveguide.
Reference is now made to Fig. 1 showing the use of a strip transmission line with a rectangular Waveguide for coupling small amounts of energy between the rectanguates Patent lar waveguide and another circuit. For purposes of discussion, the rectangular, or main transmission wave guide 1 is employed to transmit or propagate radio frequency energy from a circuit 2, such as a wave source or transmitter, to a load circuit 3, such as an antenna. It is desired to extract a known amount of the power being propagated through waveguide 1 for application to another circuit 4, which might 'be used for frequency or power measurements, etc. To permit a desired portion of the radio frequency Waves traveling from circuit 2 to circuit 3 to be coupled to the circuit 4, while preventing undesired waves from reaching 4, such as those reflected from circuit 3 back into the main guide 1, wave coupling slots 5 are provided in the wide wall 6 of guide 1. The number, dimensioning and spacing of the slots are selected to insure the desired coupling and directivity. An auxiliary wave transmission line, employing strip construction, provides the necessary coupling to the circuit 4. This strip line 7 comprises a strip of electrically conductive material 8 which extends along a portion of the main guide 1, and is spaced from the major wall 6 thereof by dielectric material such as Teflon fibre glass laminate. To minimize undesirable radiation by the slots 5, the slots are selected to appear under the strip conductor 8 as shown. To minimize radiation from the strip transmission line to outer space, it is general practice to limit the Width of the strip conductor 8 to approximately one third of the width of the ground plane, that is, the wall 6 of the main waveguide 1.
In the particular embodiment of Fig. 1, the circuit 4 is coupled to the strip transmission line by a coaxial transmission line 9. To achieve the desired coupling and impedance match while providing a desired right angle coupling junction, the strip line 7 is provided with an extension 10 oriented at the desired angle with respect to the main guide alignment. The extension 10 comprises a ground plane in the form of an electrically conductive plate 11. Alternatively 11 may comprise an extension of the waveguide wall 6, a conductive metal plate welded to the guide 1 or a conductive coating applied to the lower portion of the dielectric material 12 contained in the extension 10. The strip conductor 8 is carried over into the extension with appropriate curvature to minimize any impedance mismatch. Coupling between extension 10 and line 9 is by means of a coaxial transition connection provided in the form of an opening contained in the conductive material portion 11 and the dielectric slab portion 12 as shown.
- It is well-known that radiating slots in the common wall joining two transmission lines operate to couple radio frequency energy between the two transmission lines and that by proper spacing, shaping and orientation of the slots the coupled radio frequency energy may be made to flow in a particular direction with respect to the original direction of energy flow. In the embodiment shown the slots are arranged to permit radio frequency energy received from circuit 2 to be coupled principally in one direction, along the strip line 7 to the circuit 4, and to couple energy received from the circuit 3 along the strip line 7 towards its end 13. When it is desired that energy from 3 be absorbed, an appropriate radio frequency power absorption circuit 14 may be provided at the end 13. In the particular embodiment shown, the absorption medium consisted of a layer or sheet of resistive material lying in sufiicient proximity to the end of strip conductor 8 to absorb the required amount of undesired power. The distance between slots in a configuration where the coupling is the same for each slot could thus be expressed by the formula where A is the strip line wave length, k is the waveguide wave length, and n is equal to the number of pairs of slots, a being the distance; between slots. It will be obvious that this formula .is only descriptive of one. possible embodiment and this invention should; not be considered as. being limited thereto.
If desired, the power absorption. arrangement 14 may be replaced with an extension similar told. and be coupled by an appropriate coupling section, such as the coaxial transmission line 9; to a control. circuit for processing the undesired waves, or the waves received from the circuit 3, in a manner similar to, that described with respect to elements 4 and 9: through 12; For example, in a possible radar application, the transmitted waves are. desired to be compared to the waves reflected internally Within the coupling system between the transmitter. and an antenna load'circuit to determine the standing Wave ratio of the particular wavecoupling arrangement and load-circuit. This latter scheme will readily accommodate this purpose.
Fig.- Zillustratesa further embodiment of the inventionwherein a rightangle coupling to the circuit 45is,
provided by gradually bending the extension 10; as shown, such as to permit: the desired coupling tothe coaxial line 9: The conductive ground plane 11 for the slab extension 10 may preferably comprise a'metallic conductive coating deposited thereon.
Referring to the further: embodiment of Fig. 3 a;
transition element forthe coaxial line 9is provided in the form-of a block of conductive material l-s containing a rightangle opening lfi through which the inner con ductor 1-7 of: line 9* is connected tothe conductor 8% Under certain conditions, it maybe desirable to extend or continuetheopening-lflin thedirectionlfi, a sufiicient length tominimize any undesirable reflections due toits angled bend; Undesirablemisrnatch' may then be conveniently corrected by appropriate short or opencircuit terminations. 7
Furthermore,- any mismatch-between the coaxial-trans missionline 9 and the strip line extension ltl may becornpensa-ted for by appropriately tapcringthe end portion 19401:: the strip line feeding thetransition element ltii Referringtc Fig. 4, a-further embodiment of applicants invention isdisclosed; wherein the strip conductor" 8 associated with: the main waveguide 11 isseparated from= the latter by a first dielectric layerib, and from a metallic provided in. the form of: an' electrically conductive;
member 21:130sitioned on thesurfaceof the dielectric slab 22 and adapted'to receive the bolts-23. The bolts when tightened by. thenuts-Zd; clamp the entire assembly of guide 1, and the strip, or sandwich line, comprising elements 6, 8, 2.0, 21; and 221- The-slot, or. slots-Spermit the. desiredcoupling of waves between the guide 1*- and the sandwichline.
Fig. 5 illustrates an application of" the invention-to circular waveguide use. guide 25'is shown with two sandwich line transmission sections26 and 27, similar tothose illustratedin-Fig. 4;. provided. at'spaced points-on 25; ln each case, .thexstrip conductor 8-.is separated fromthe wall of thecircular Waveguide by means of the dielectric material and from the electrically. conductive plate member 21 bymeansof dielectric: material 22. The; arrangement of Fig. 5 can easily. be. adapted" for. polarizationameasure ments. For example, if the-Efield within-: is-oriented as indicatedrby the..arrow,28,.the slot.29;w.ill couplethe; component of: the wave havingits E'field polarizedin the direction. 3.0'into the sandwich line. 26 whereas In Fig. 5, the circular wavesource to said first circuit, a wave transmissionlineycom- 4 V V the slot 31 will couple the component of the wave having its E' field polarized in the direction 32" into line 21 The signals coupled by the slots 2e and 31 into sandwich lines 26 and 27 may then be compared by means of conventional amplitude comparison circuits such as a power bridge measuring apparatus.
While the particular embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be obvious to those skilled inithe art/that changes-and? modifications may be made without departing from thisinventionim itsbroader aspectsand thereforetheaim of theappended claims is to cover all such changes and modifications as fall withinlthetrue spirit and scope of theinvention.
