Definitions
- Phase shifter capable of continuous phase variation
- the present invention relates to the variable phase shifters of antenna networks usable in particular in the base stations of cellular radiocommunication networks of the GSM or UMTS type for example.
- the antenna networks equipping the stations basic must be able to radiate directional beams orientable in elevation, typically from 0 ° to -10 ° relative to the horizon line.
- the antenna networks are located at the top of pylons or buildings, a reduction in the deflection angle between 0 ° and -10 ° makes it possible to reduce the range on the ground of radiated radio waves.
- These antenna arrays are generally formed by a vertical alignment of elementary sources spaced apart by a distance (p) forming the pitch of the array which is a multiple, generally less than 1, of the wavelength of the median frequency of the frequency band to be covered.
- the elementary sources are supplied according to a linear phase distribution law, two adjacent sources being phase-shifted by:
- ⁇ o is the angle of depointing of the beam compared to the horizon.
- the variation of ⁇ by an adjustable phase shift means induces a beam deflection of an angle ⁇ o.
- ⁇ o 0.9 ⁇
- ⁇ o -10 °
- the phase shift ⁇ is worth approximately 56.3 °.
- the amplitude of the phase shift ⁇ is typically 60 ° but, if necessary, it can reach 90 ° approximately.
- Beam defocusing can be done manually by tilting the antenna or automatically from a ground remote control. These adjustment modes depend to a large extent on the technology implemented in the production of the phase shifters. It is known to orient the beam of the electromagnetic wave radiated by an array of antennas to use phase-shifting devices with ferrite or else phase-shifting devices with PIN diodes. For the realization of antenna arrays, these devices have the particularity that they allow a remote adjustment of the beam depointing angle by applying an appropriate bias current on the ferrites or PIN diodes, but they do have the disadvantages of having non-linearities and of being a generator of intermodulation noise in multi-carrier transmission.
- phase shifters with metal-on-metal friction or alternatively phase shifters comprising a triplate structure comprising an electrically conductive track composed of several non-aligned segments, the segments being covered in whole or in part by at least one blade in dielectric material moving between two conductive planes along the electrical track.
- telescopic coaxial phase shifters with metal-on-metal friction have the drawback of being sensitive to corrosion and of exhibiting micro non-linearities at high powers which are essentially due to contact resistances.
- phase shifters with a triple plate structure
- the variable overlap of the conductive track by the dielectric plates modifies the electrical length of the conductive track, which produces a mismatch thereof and generally makes this type of phase shifter unsuitable for supplying antenna arrays. with high phase shift.
- the phase excursion can however be improved by adding, for example to the ends of the conductive track, segments of determined length which cancel out the mismatches produced by the dielectric coatings.
- this type of embodiment greatly increases the size of the phase shifters and makes them difficult to use in antenna networks of the GSM or UMTS type.
- this embodiment requires the installation, at the level of each phase shifter of the network, of devices for controlling the movement of the dielectric plates, which further increases their bulk, and limits their use to networks comprising only '' a reduced number of antennas.
- the object of the invention is to provide a phase shifting device capable of continuous variation by single mechanical control having a low insertion loss and operating in a wide frequency band with a view to being integrated for example into a network of radiating elements. aligned to form a directional beam antenna.
- the invention proposes, for this purpose, a phase shifter, comprising two plates of dielectric material, mounted to slide in a chosen direction inside a metal case, and sandwiching a main metal segment, to form a phase shift cell whose terminals are at the ends of the main segment.
- the main segment comprises two conductive sections, substantially parallel, spaced from each other both transversely and longitudinally relative to the chosen direction, with a conductive connection between them, while the plates dielectric have openings, defining movable windows, variably uncovering the sections, depending on the sliding of the dielectric plates in the housing, which at the same time modifies the phase shift between the terminals of the cell.
- each of the windows may be equal to the length of a section increased by a length slightly greater than the half-length of the conductive link in projection on the chosen direction. This characteristic makes it possible to maintain invariable the electrical length and the impedance of the conductive link whatever the position of the dielectric plates and the phase characteristics depend only on the covering of the first and second sections by the windows.
- phase shift cell can be obtained for lengths of the sections less than 0.12 times the working wavelength of the cell and for a length of the conductive link less than 0.25 times the length d working cell wave.
- the phase shifter may comprise, between the dielectric plates and the housing, an arrangement with slits and guide rod, suitable for jointly delimiting the excursion of the two sliding plates.
- the phase shifter comprises a group of at least two main segments, substantially parallel to the chosen direction and connected in series to form a multiple phase shift cell whose terminals are at the free ends of the main segments, while the plates dielectrics have openings, defining movable windows, for each section of each main segment.
- This arrangement of the invention makes it possible to directly control the orientation of the wave beam emitted by the antenna array by performing a single movement of the dielectric plates.
- This movement can be carried out by means of a single electric motor of the "Step by Step" type, for example remotely controlled, which facilitates focusing.
- the phase shifter may further comprise at least two groups of main segments connected in series, mounted symmetrically with respect to a plane perpendicular to the chosen direction, to form two phase shift cells having a common terminal and two opposite terminals located at the ends of the groups.
- the phase shifter may include an assembly defined by at least two groups of main segments connected in series and placed side by side to form two phase shift cells having a common terminal and two extreme terminals located at the ends of these groups.
- the invention allows the production of antenna networks with a phase shifting block distributor, the distributor block being composed of two sets of main segments connected in series, mounted symmetrically with respect to a plane perpendicular to said chosen direction.
- the proposed phase shifter device makes it possible to produce relatively large phase shifts in a small footprint while having a low insertion loss and good impedance matching in a wide frequency band. Another advantage is that it has very good linearity in phase adjustment.
- the impedance matching is better than 1.3 of ROS in each of the frequency bands and for any position of the phase shifter.
- the linearity of the phase shifts measured as a function of displacement of the plates and the frequency is excellent, the non-linearity is better than +/- 5 ° in the frequency band.
- the insertion losses are extremely low of the order of 0.13 dB for a double cell generating a phase shift of 60 ° in the frequency band of 2 GHz.

- the conductive housing 4 is formed by a U-shaped base 5 which serves as a guide for the dielectric plates 2 and 3 and by a conductive closure plate 6 in the form of a cover.
- the large dimension of the base 5 defines the direction of movement of the plates.
- To allow the displacement of the dielectric plates 2 and 3 in the housing these are crossed by a rod 7 guided by two longitudinal slots gl and g2 facing each other in the base 5 and the cover 6.
- the length of the slots gl and g2 limits the amplitude of movement of the plates 2 and 3.
- the simultaneous driving of the dielectric plates 2 and 3 can be carried out by means of one or more rods not shown, integral with the rod 7 and actuated either manually or with the aid of an electric motor.
- the central line is composed, as shown more particularly in FIG. 2, of several sections SI, Tl, T2, T3, S2.
- the sections SI and S2 constitute the entry and exit lines of the phase shift cell.
- the inputs and outputs can be reversed in a reciprocal phase shifter, consequently, an input or an output can be considered indifferently as a terminal of the phase shifter.
- the sections Tl and T2 intermediate between the sections SI and S2 are in extension in two parallel directions xx 'and yy'. They are offset relative to each other, and interconnected by a conductive link in the shape of a 90 ° elbow forming the section T3. It is mainly on the sections T1, T2 and T3 that the phase shift cell is formed.
- the dielectric plates 2 and 3 have openings defining movable windows f 1, f2 and f '1 of generally substantially rectangular shape.
- Each window fl, f2 and fl has an opening in one plate, and, substantially opposite, an opening in the other plate (as a variant, a window could be defined by an opening in only one of the two plates) .
- the windows fl, f2 are aligned respectively with the active sections T1 and T2 and are dimensioned so as to cover them partially or entirely depending on the position of the dielectric plates 2 and 3 in the housing 4.
- the Tl and T2 sections also have a substantially rectangular general shape.
- the window f 1 is aligned with a part of the output section S2 of the central line 1. It should be noted that the window f 1 is used only for cascading the cell with another cell as will appear in the following of the description, it is therefore not necessary for embodiments requiring only a phase shift cell.
- the respective width of the windows and their respective length are at least equal to those of the corresponding sections.
- the rectangular shape of the windows substantially matches that of the corresponding sections.
- the outgoing signal at (S) is out of phase (delayed) with respect to the incoming signal at (E).

- the minimum position of the phase shifter corresponds to d ⁇ O
- "1" being the predefined common length of the sections Tl and T2 so that the maximum travel of the phase shifter is equal to the common length "1" of said sections.
- the maximum achievable phase shift is substantially proportional to "1".
- the role of the windows f 1 and f2 practiced in the dielectric plates is to cover over a distance a part of the sections Tl and T2 by discovering F other part of these same sections over a distance d-1.
- the covered part of the sections Tlet T2 is surrounded by the dielectric medium of dielectric constant ⁇ r greater than 1 and the uncovered part bathes in F air of dielectric constant equal to 1 in the manner of a suspended line.
- the length of the window f2 is such that the section T2 can be completely ventilated in the minimum position of the phase-shifting module which is obtained for d ⁇ O and that the bent part of the section T3 at the end of the section T2 is also ventilated in this position.
- the length of the window f2 is at least equal to a length f as indicated in FIG. 2 comprising the length 1 of the section T2 increased by a length corresponding to the part of the section T3 falling at the end from the window.
- This part has a length slightly greater than the half length of the conductive link (T3) in projection on the direction of movement of the plates and includes a certain longitudinal length, a bend and finally a certain transverse length. It is the same for the window fl with respect to the sections Tl and SI.
- the electrical length and the impedance of the section T3 connecting the sections Tl and T2, one part of which is in the air and the other part is embedded in the dielectric are kept invariable regardless of the position of the plates dielectric 2 and 3.
- only the electrical properties of the active sections Tl and T2 are variable depending on the position of the dielectric plates 2 and 3 and all the other sections or connecting sections such as T3, SI and S2 retain their initial properties when adjusting the cell phase.
- the dielectric plates 2 and 3 are guided in the slide formed in the base 4 in cooperation with the slots gl and g2 and the drive rod 7.
- the width of a window is substantially equal to the width of a corresponding section of line. However, it may be slightly higher or lower without this having any consequence on the proper functioning of the phase shift cell.

- the active sections are not aligned on the same axis.
- the axis offset is greater than the width of the windows so that the adjacent windows do not overlap.
- the length 1 of the active sections T1 and T2 is short compared to the working wavelength, for example equal to one tenth of the wavelength, and the respective widths W1, W2 are preferably substantially equal. However for impedance adaptation needs the widths W1 and W2 may differ slightly.
- the widths and lengths of the active sections determine the maximum phase shift achievable by the phase shift cell.
- the section T3 connects the two sections Tl and T2 together and has at least two elbows, these elbows not necessarily being straight.
- the characteristic impedance Zc of the section T3 and its equivalent electrical length ⁇ substantially determine the state of adaptation of impedance with respect to the impedances Zo of the input and output lines of the phase shifter, these generally being 50 Ohms .
- the impedance Zc determines the width of the section. Approximately these quantities are determined by the following relationships:
- phase shifter has a relative passband close to 25%, ie a frequency band between 1700MHz and 2200MHz for a standing wave ratio (ROS) of less than 1.2.
- ROS standing wave ratio
- the sections T1 and T2 In a triplate of 4.6mm thickness for example with a track of 0.2mm thickness, the sections T1 and T2 would have a width of 3.9 mm and the section T3 a width of 3.2 mm in the constant dielectric 2.3 or 6mm in the air.

- the relation (4) also shows that the phase shift is proportional to the frequency.
- the relation (4) also makes it possible to estimate the phase shift achievable with an elementary cell comprising three sections T1, T2 and T3 of the type described above.
