Description
A microstrip sector antenna of polarization
parallel in relation to the longitudinal axis thereof
The invention relates to a microstrip sector antenna of polarization substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis thereof having a housing in which a metal shielding layer is disposed, wherein above said shielding layer at least one dielectric plate is disposed over which a microstrip structure is disposed, said microstrip structure having at least two radiating elements arranged substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the antenna.
In certain applications, such as for example wireless internet transmission, it is desirable for microstrip sector antennas to feature high broadband operational characteristics, high polarization purity and considerably limited level of grating lobes of antenna radiation characteristics. For this purpose many constructions of microstrip antennas of diverse parameters have been proposed.
Design of an appropriate structure of radiating elements allowing for constructing a microstrip sector antenna having excellent working parameters requires both a high amount of creative effort as well as thorough technical knowledge. Relatively the simplest microstrip sector antenna of polarization substantially parallel in relation to the longitudinal axis thereof has a construction in a form of a row of generally identical radiating elements, typically polygonal, and most commonly rectangles or discs connected with each other by means of feed paths and serially fed.
Distances between particular radiating elements should be shorter than the antenna wavelength. When they get close to the antenna wavelength (λ0) in the air, determined by the greatest designed frequency of antenna operation, grating lobes of antenna characteristics increase and at certain point take the level of the main lobe. In an extreme case it is then no longer possible to determine which lobe of the radiation characteristics is a grating lobe and which one is the main lobe. For
example for an antenna having a bandwidth of 5.5 GHz, distance between individual radiating elements should not be shorter than 54.5 mm.
Obviously these distances may also not be too short since, despite the fact that the grating lobes decrease an antenna gain decreases as well. In order to enable substantially unrestricted defining distribution of microstrip structure feed it is necessary to employ additional matching elements (tuning elements, impedance transformers, etc.) appropriately arranged on feed paths between radiating paths. Longer feed paths increase the possibilities of arrangements of the matching elements. Unfortunately the construction of the microstrip sector antenna described at the preamble does not enable for this due to relatively small distances of conductive paths between individual radiating elements.
Microstrip sector antennas of polarization substantially parallel in relation to the longitudinal axis in which a row of radiating elements is disposed in certain distance from a main feed path, wherein particular radiating elements are connected by means of additional feed paths perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the antenna are known from the state of art. Although available distances of the conductive paths between radiating elements are therefore considerably greater, additional feed paths perpendicular to the main feed path are also radiating and since polarization thereof is different than the polarization of the main microstrip arrangement, a resultant general polarization purity of the antenna is deteriorated.
The object of the present invention was to provide a microstrip sector antenna of polarization substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis thereof that overcomes the above discussed drawbacks and which would feature high broadband working characteristics, high polarization purity and which would be of an economic and simple construction concerning large-scale production with no need of using specific types of laminate materials or dedicated production technologies.
According to the present invention there is provided a microstrip sector antenna of the kind mentioned at the outset, wherein each of said radiating elements has at least two substantially longitudinal radiating patches having longitudinal axes inclined substantially at the same and acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the
antenna, wherein said patches are electromagnetically coupled by their end portions with the main feed path of the antenna by means of additional feed paths.
By separating each radiating element into two longitudinal radiating patches, distances between the feed points of particular elements are greater and thus the available length of the feed path on which additional matching elements may be installed is greater as well. Moreover such a U-shaped outline of the radiating elements enables for precise defining the feed point of each radiating element. It also enables for disposing a feed path on the layer other than a layer of radiating elements. A term "longitudinal" as used in this specification should be understood as a direction in which one dimension of a radiating patch (length) is significantly greater than the other dimension (width).
In a preferred embodiment of an antenna according to the present invention an electromagnetic coupling gap is formed between the additional feed path and the main feed path. Alternatively or additionally an electromagnetic coupling gap is formed between said radiating patches of the radiating element and the additional feed paths.
The gaps may be disposed on a common plane of radiating patches and additional feed paths or alternatively radiating elements and additional feed paths may be disposed on different layers. The parameters of the gaps regulate impedances of particular radiating patches and may be additionally employed for differentiating or distributing of the power supplied from the feed path to particular patches (or conversely in case of a receiving antenna) in result of which a grating lobes levels may be regulated and/or antenna characteristics may be defined as desired.
It is also advantageous if the distances along the axes perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the antenna between the inner edges and/or the outer edges of said radiating patches of the radiating element are differentiated. It increases possibilities of defining a distribution of feed into particular patches and in some way reduces crosstalks between the main feed path and radiating patches.
The invention is illustrated below with reference to the preferred exemplary embodiments thereof and with reference to the attached drawings on which:
Fig. 1 shows a microstrip sector antenna according to the present invention in a schematic perspective view,
Fig. 2 shows a preferred embodiment of a microstrip structure of an antenna according to the present invention,
Fig. 3 shows an embodiment of a radiating element of a microstrip structure of an antenna according to the present invention,
Fig. 4 shows further embodiment of a radiating element in a top view (Fig. 4a) and in a side view along with dielectric plates (Fig. 4b), and
Fig. 5 shows yet another embodiment of a radiating element along with a dielectric plate in a top view (fig. 5a) and in a side view (Fig. 5b) respectively.
A microstrip sector antenna 1 shown on Fig. 1 is disposed in the housing 2 made out of plastic material and depicted by dashed line.
The main radiating arrangement (transmitting or receiving) of the antenna 1 is in this embodiment composed of a microstrip structure 3 printed on or etched in a rectangular dielectric plate 4.
The dielectric plate 4 may be an epoxy-glass laminate such as for example laminate FR4 featuring dielectric loss angle δ of 0.02 and dielectric constant εΓ of 4.3 provided by Isola GmbH, teflon-ceramic laminate such as produced by Rogers Corporation, or any other material having properties suitable for a given operational range of an antenna. The dielectric plate 4 on which the microstrip structure 3 is etched is obviously only the support element for the structure 3. The microstrip structure 3 may also be created by cutting it out from a cooper-metal sheet and may constitute a self- supporting element.
Underneath the dielectric plate 4 a metal shielding plate 5 is placed parallel relative to the microstrip structure 3 and separated from the microstrip structure 3 by dielectric layer consisting of an air layer and a dielectric plate layer 4. Above the microstrip structure 3 a dielectric layer consisting of an air layer and a housing layer 2 is disposed.
To the shielding plate 5 a socket 6 is fastened having a body electrically connected with the shielding plate 5 and an isolated metal pin 7 electrically connected to a conductive feed path 32 of the microstrip structure 3. A feed cable (not shown) for
connecting the antenna with sending/receiving devices may be connected to the socket 6.
In the illustrated embodiment the microstrip structure is formed by the feed path 32 and ten collinear radiating elements 31a. The shape of the path 32 and the shapes, dimensions and relative spatial separation of radiating elements 31a are adjusted to obtain required operational parameters of the antenna and shall be discussed with reference to Figs. 2-5.
If it is not indicated otherwise, numerical references of elements performing the same functions remain the same as in Fig. 1 , wherein where appropriate suffixes (a- d) were added to distinct elements of the same functionality but different construction.
In Fig. 2 an exemplary microstrip antenna is presented having eight radiating elements 31a. The centre of the structure (the point of connection of the transmitting or receiving cable) is indicated by an arrow. Radiating elements 31a are arranged equidistantly from each other and in parallel relative to the longitudinal axis of the structure and substantially symmetrically relative to the centre thereof. The feed path 32 is additionally provided with eight pairs of impedance tuning elements 323.
Each radiating element 31a has two radiating patches 311a having a shape of a rectangle which one side in an end portion is trigonally half-opened transforming into a feed point connecting each patch 311a with an additional feed path 322a coupled perpendicularly to the main feed path 32. In the presented embodiment the longitudinal axes of the radiating patches 311a are parallel relative to the longitudinal axis of the antenna (the acute angle between the longitudinal axis of radiating element and the longitudinal axis of the antenna is zero). In an alternative embodiment depicted in Fig. 3, the radiating patches 311b of the radiating element 31 b and the additional feed paths 322b are not connected to each other but electromagnetically coupled with each other by means of the gaps "D".
In a further embodiment presented in Fig. 4, the radiating patches 311c of the radiating element 31c are approximately drop-shaped for reducing crosstalks between the main feed path 32 and the patches 311c. As shown in Fig. 4b, the
radiating patches together with the additional feed path 322c are etched on the top surface of the dielectric plate 4 having thickness of 0.8 mm, below which an air layer of 1 mm thickness and second dielectric plate 8 of 0.8 mm thickness are disposed, wherein on the bottom surface of the plate 8 the main feed path 32 is etched. The electromagnetic coupling gap "D" is in this embodiment formed between the point in the centre of the additional feed path 322c and the main feed path 32 situated below.
In an embodiment illustrated in Fig. 5 radiating elements 31 d are disposed on the top surface of the dielectric plate 4 and the additional feed paths 322d are etched in the bottom surface of the dielectric plate 4. The electromagnetic coupling gap "D" exists in a plane perpendicular to the dielectric plate what results in a decrease of adverse impact of the additional feed paths on the radiation characteristics of the antenna. Additionally the longitudinal axes of the radiating patches 311d are inclined at an acute angle relatively to the feed path 32.
Although the drawings do not present some constructional details of an antenna according to the present invention, such as for example constructional details of fastening a dielectric layer, it shall be obvious for a skilled technician that any appropriate construction may be employed that does not affect antenna electromagnetic characteristics. A dielectric layer may for example be glued to a shielding plate, or suck by means of suitable two-sided adhesive tape or the layer may be fixed to antenna housing, providing a desired distance between a microstrip structure and a shielding plate. Moreover an antenna microstrip structure according to the present invention may obviously be asymmetric.
Therefore the embodiments above should not be, by any means, considered as exhaustive and/or limiting the invention, the essence of which is characterised in the appended claims.
