阵列天线,尤其是小间距阵列天线,存在着互耦较强的问题。天线单元间的互耦在很大程度上影响天线单元及其阵列的匹配特性和空间辐射特性,具体表现为以下几点。Array antennas, especially small-pitch array antennas, have the problem of strong mutual coupling. The mutual coupling between the antenna elements affects the matching characteristics and spatial radiation characteristics of the antenna elements and their arrays to a large extent, and the specific manifestations are as follows.
(1)方向图:天线上的电流在互耦作用下其分布发生了改变,导致部分辐射能量进一步耦合到其他天线单元,其中一部分耦合能量被端接负载吸收而消耗,而另一部分能量又会再次辐射。所以,天线的方向图会发生畸变。此处所述的端接负载是天线馈源后端等效出来的一个参数;在画等效电路时,可将天线馈源的整个后端用一个电阻来代替,并可称为端接负载。(1) Pattern: The distribution of the current on the antenna changes under the action of mutual coupling, causing part of the radiated energy to be further coupled to other antenna elements, part of the coupling energy is absorbed by the terminal load and consumed, and the other part of the energy will be Radiate again. Therefore, the antenna pattern will be distorted. The termination load mentioned here is a parameter equivalent to the back end of the antenna feed; when drawing the equivalent circuit, the entire back end of the antenna feed can be replaced by a resistor, which can be called a termination load .
(2)输入阻抗:受到互耦影响,阵列中天线单元的输入阻抗会发生改变,并与孤立环境中天线单元的输入阻抗不同,因此各阵列中天线单元的匹配情况不同并且匹配特性会受到影响。(2) Input impedance: Affected by mutual coupling, the input impedance of the antenna unit in the array will change, and is different from the input impedance of the antenna unit in an isolated environment, so the matching situation of the antenna unit in each array is different and the matching characteristics will be affected .
(3)增益:在天线单元中存在热损耗以及阻抗不匹配引起的反射损耗等,从而使得天线的辐射功率比发射功率要小,反射系数在互耦的作用下会发生变化,故天线的增益受到影响。(3) Gain: There is heat loss and reflection loss caused by impedance mismatch in the antenna unit, so that the radiation power of the antenna is smaller than the transmission power, and the reflection coefficient will change under the action of mutual coupling, so the gain of the antenna affected.
在相关技术中,解决互耦效应对天线单元的方向图、输入阻抗、增益等特性的影响方面,通常采用以下五种方法:缺陷地结构(DGS-Defected Ground Structure)去耦法、中和线法(NLT-Neutralization Line Technique)去耦法、带阻滤波去耦法、电磁带隙结构(EBG,Electromagnetic Band Gap)去耦法、超材料去耦法(MDT,Metamaterial Decoupling Technique)。In related technologies, the following five methods are usually used to solve the influence of mutual coupling effects on the antenna unit's pattern, input impedance, gain and other characteristics: DGS-Defected Ground Structure (DGS-Defected Ground Structure) decoupling method, neutralization line Method (NLT-Neutralization Line Technique) decoupling method, band-stop filter decoupling method, electromagnetic band gap structure (EBG, Electromagnetic Band Gap) decoupling method, metamaterial decoupling method (MDT, Metamaterial Decoupling Technique).
然而,上述方法都是针对天线单元间耦合消除方法的研究,未能对天线间耦合效应进行精确定义与控制。However, the above methods are all researches on the method of eliminating coupling between antenna elements, and the coupling effect between antennas cannot be precisely defined and controlled.
本申请提供了一种电子设备,该电子设备的阵列天线可以对天线间的耦合效应进行自定义,并通过耦合效应的设计实现对天线单元的辐射方向图的控制,例如拓宽扫描角、提升扫描增益、消除扫描盲区等。This application provides an electronic device.

It can be seen that by designing the length d 5 of the decoupling transmission line 33 and the S parameter of the three-port network, the degree of coupling between the antennas can be accurately defined. That is, when the required degree of coupling is preset, the above formula can be expressed as:
因此,可以将去耦传输线33的长度d5和三端口网络的S参数配置为使天线单元10、20之间的耦合度 满足预设耦合度。Therefore, the length d5 of the decoupling transmission line 33 and the S parameter of the three-port network can be configured so that the coupling degree between the antenna units 10 and 20 meets the preset coupling degree.
在一些实施例中,第一去耦网络30与去耦传输线33可形成功分器。第二去耦网络30’与去耦传输线33也可形成功分器。在这种情况下,可以通过配置去耦传输线33的长度和功分器的功分比来使两个天线单元10、20之间的耦合度置零。In some embodiments, the first decoupling network 30 and the decoupling transmission line 33 can form a splitter. The second decoupling network 30' and the decoupling transmission line 33 can also form a splitter. In this case, the coupling degree between the two antenna units 10 and 20 can be set to zero by configuring the length of the decoupling transmission line 33 and the power division ratio of the power divider.
去耦传输线33的长度和功分器的功分比可以由两个天线单元10、20之间的初始隔离度来确定,其中,初始隔离度为两个天线单元之间未连接去耦网络时的隔离度。即,一些实施例中,两个天线单元10、20之间可以根据初始隔离度配置功分比和去耦传输线33的长度来为使两个天线单元10、20之间的耦合度置零。The length of the decoupling transmission line 33 and the power division ratio of the power divider can be determined by the initial isolation between the two antenna units 10 and 20, where the initial isolation is when the decoupling network is not connected between the two antenna units. The isolation. That is, in some embodiments, the power division ratio between the two antenna elements 10 and 20 may be configured according to the initial isolation degree and the length of the decoupling transmission line 33 to zero the coupling degree between the two antenna elements 10 and 20.
具体地,功分器的功分比的可以通过两个天线单元之间的初始隔离度的强度(即S’
12)来确定。去耦传输线33的长度则可以通过两个天线单元10、20之间的初始隔离度的相位(φ’
12)来确定。
Specifically, the power division ratio of the power divider can be determined by the strength of the initial isolation between the two antenna elements (ie, S′ 12 ). The length of the decoupling transmission line 33 can then be determined by the phase (φ′ 12 ) of the initial isolation between the two antenna elements 10 and 20.
举例而言,当需要去耦网络将两个天线单元10、20之间的互耦完全抵消时,令预设耦合度为0,则For example, when a decoupling network is required to completely cancel the mutual coupling between the two antenna units 10 and 20, the default coupling degree is set to 0, then
由式(18)可知:From equation (18), we can see:
其中,
为功分器的功分比,因此,去耦网络的S参数可以根据功分比确定。
in, It is the power division ratio of the power divider, therefore, the S parameter of the decoupling network can be determined according to the power division ratio.
由此可知,将功分器的功分比配置为与两个天线单元10、20的初始隔离度的强度之间满足式(21)的关系,并将去耦传输线33的长度配置为与两个天线单元10、20的初始隔离度的相位之间满足式(21)的关系,则可实现两个天线单元10、20之间的耦合度置零。It can be seen that the power division ratio of the power divider is configured to satisfy the relationship of formula (21) with the strength of the initial isolation of the two antenna units 10 and 20, and the length of the decoupling transmission line 33 is configured to be equal to two The phases of the initial isolation of the two antenna units 10 and 20 satisfy the relationship of formula (21), so that the coupling degree between the two antenna units 10 and 20 can be set to zero.
具体地,初始隔离度的强度S’
12和相位φ′
12是已知的,波数k与波长λ的关系是已知的,因此,用波长λ表示波数k,并代入式(21),可得出d
5的计算公式:
Specifically, the intensity of the initial isolation S '12 and the phase φ' 12 are known, the relationship between wave number k and the wavelength λ are known, and therefore, wavelength λ represents the wavenumber k, and substituting into equation (21), can be Get the calculation formula of d 5:
因此,计算出功分器的功分比以及去耦传输线33的长度d
5之后,可以设计出具有该功分比的功分器和具有该长度的去耦传输线33,以实现耦合度置零。
Therefore, after calculating the power division ratio of the power divider and the length d 5 of the decoupling transmission line 33, a power divider with this power division ratio and a decoupling transmission line 33 with this length can be designed to achieve zero coupling. .
在一些实施例中,功分器的功分比与第一传输线31、第一分支341和第二分支342的特性阻抗相关。由上述实施例可知,功分器的功分比可以根据初始隔离度的强度获知,因而,可以由此获知的功分比以及第一传输线31的特性阻抗来确定第一分支341和第二分支342的特性阻抗。因此,第一分支341和第二分支342的特性阻抗均可根据第一传输线31的特性阻抗和初始隔离度的强度来确定。In some embodiments, the power division ratio of the power divider is related to the characteristic impedance of the first transmission line 31, the first branch 341 and the second branch 342. It can be seen from the above embodiment that the power division ratio of the power divider can be obtained according to the strength of the initial isolation. Therefore, the obtained power division ratio and the characteristic impedance of the first transmission line 31 can be used to determine the first branch 341 and the second branch. 342 characteristic impedance. Therefore, the characteristic impedance of the first branch 341 and the second branch 342 can be determined according to the characteristic impedance of the first transmission line 31 and the strength of the initial isolation.

12)满足以下关系:
The second branch 342 of the characteristic impedance Z 3 and the first transmission line characteristic impedance Z 1 31 and power splitter ratio (i.e., the intensity of the initial isolation of S '12) satisfy the following relation:
因此,由上述可知,通过预设耦合度可以获知所要求的功分器的功分比,然后可以根据该功分比可以 获知所需要的第一分支341的特性阻抗Z
2和第二分支342的特性阻抗Z
3,从而配置去耦网络的第一分支341和第二分支342,使得第一分支341的特性阻抗满足所需要的特性阻抗Z
2,并使第二分支342的特性阻抗满足所需要的特性阻抗Z
3。
Therefore, it can be seen from the above that the required power divider ratio of the power divider can be obtained through the preset coupling degree, and then the required characteristic impedance Z 2 of the first branch 341 and the second branch 342 can be obtained according to the power ratio. the characteristic impedance Z 3, arranged so that the decoupling network first branch 341 and second branch 342, such that the characteristic impedance of the first branch 341 to meet the desired characteristic impedance Z 2, and a second branch satisfies the characteristic impedance of 342 The required characteristic impedance Z 3 .
一些实施例中,可以通过配置传输线的线宽来使传输线的特性阻抗满足要求,即,第一分支341的线宽根据第一分支341的特性阻抗来确定。第二分支342的线宽根据第二分支342的特性阻抗来确定。例如,按照上述关系式获得第一分支341的特性阻抗Z
2之后,可以将第一分支341的线宽配置为使其特性阻抗满足上述特性阻抗Z
2。举例而言,确定所需的第一分支341的厚度、PCB板材的相对介电常数以及介质层厚度等因素后,根据特性阻抗和线宽之间的关系以及所需的特性阻抗Z
2,即可计算出第一分支341的线宽。因此,根据该计算结果来配置第一分支341的线宽,从而获得具有上述特性阻抗Z
2的第一分支341。
In some embodiments, the line width of the transmission line can be configured to make the characteristic impedance of the transmission line meet the requirements, that is, the line width of the first branch 341 is determined according to the characteristic impedance of the first branch 341. The line width of the second branch 342 is determined according to the characteristic impedance of the second branch 342. For example, after the characteristic impedance Z 2 of the first branch 341 is obtained according to the above-mentioned relational expression, the line width of the first branch 341 can be configured such that its characteristic impedance satisfies the characteristic impedance Z 2 . For example, after determining the required thickness of the first branch 341, the relative dielectric constant of the PCB board, and the thickness of the dielectric layer, according to the relationship between the characteristic impedance and the line width and the required characteristic impedance Z 2 , that is The line width of the first branch 341 can be calculated. Therefore, the line width of the first branch 341 is configured according to the calculation result, thereby obtaining the first branch 341 having the above-mentioned characteristic impedance Z 2.
类似地,可以通过配置第二分支342的线宽来使第二分支342满足上述所需的特性阻抗Z
3。第二分支342的线宽则可以根据特性阻抗和线宽之间的关系以及所需的特性阻抗Z
3来计算。因此,根据该计算结果来配置第二分支342的线宽,从而获得具有上述特性阻抗Z
3的第二分支342。
Similarly, the line width of the second branch 342 can be configured to make the second branch 342 meet the above-mentioned required characteristic impedance Z 3 . The line width of the second branch 342 can be calculated according to the relationship between the characteristic impedance and the line width and the required characteristic impedance Z 3 . Therefore, the line width of the second branch 342 is configured according to the calculation result, thereby obtaining the second branch 342 having the above-mentioned characteristic impedance Z 3.
在一些实施例中,天线单元10、20的馈电端口的输入阻抗是50Ω匹配的,因此,将第二传输线32配置为3段1/4λ长度的传输线,即,将第二传输线32的长度配置为3/4λ,以使其阻抗匹配至50Ω。In some embodiments, the input impedances of the feed ports of the antenna units 10 and 20 are matched with 50Ω. Therefore, the second transmission line 32 is configured as three transmission lines with a length of 1/4λ, that is, the length of the second transmission line 32 is Configured to 3/4λ to match its impedance to 50Ω.

射频芯片64设置在第三基板63远离第一基板61的一侧,相当于前述实施例馈源,例如第一馈源40和第二馈源40’。当有多个馈源时,多个馈源可以相同或不同。The radio frequency chip 64 is disposed on the side of the third substrate 63 away from the first substrate 61, which is equivalent to the feed sources of the foregoing embodiment, such as the first feed source 40 and the second feed source 40'. When there are multiple feed sources, the multiple feed sources can be the same or different.
馈线包括第一馈线65和第二馈线67。去耦网络30、30’分别连接在对应的第一馈线65和第二馈线67之间。第一馈线65的一端设置在第三基板63远离第二基板62的一侧以连接射频芯片64,另一端延伸至第三基板63内,即,穿过第三基板63的馈线过孔634以连接至去耦网络30。第二馈线67的一部分设置在第三基板67内以连接去耦网络30,另一部分贯穿第二基板,即,穿过第二基板62的馈线过孔624以将连接对应的天线单元10a。因此,射频芯片64、第一馈线65、去耦网络30、第二馈线67和天线单元10依次连接,实现了天线单元10和射频芯片64之间的信号传输。馈线与各金属层,例如本实施例的金属层666、667、668以及接地层665相互绝缘。The feeder line includes a first feeder line 65 and a second feeder line 67.

Therefore, the radio frequency chip 64, the first feeder line 65, the decoupling network 30, the second feeder line 67, and the antenna unit 10 are connected in sequence to realize signal transmission between the antenna unit 10 and the radio frequency chip 64. The feeder is insulated from each metal layer, such as the metal layers 666, 667, 668 and the ground layer 665 in this embodiment.
此外,第三基板63上还设有其他信号传输线,例如控制线68和电源线69等。如图7所示,电源线69设置在第三基板63的第二外表面631上,并焊接在射频芯片64上。控制线68设置在第三基板63靠近射频芯片64的半固化片和与其相邻的半固化片之间,并穿过半固化片上的信号过孔635而与射频芯片64连接。In addition, other signal transmission lines are provided on the third substrate 63, such as a control line 68 and a power line 69. As shown in FIG. 7, the power cord 69 is disposed on the second outer surface 631 of the third substrate 63 and soldered on the radio frequency chip 64. The control line 68 is arranged between the prepreg of the third substrate 63 close to the radio frequency chip 64 and the adjacent prepreg, and passes through the signal via 635 on the prepreg to connect to the radio frequency chip 64.
此外,第三基板63还用于承载多个去耦网络和去耦传输线33a,去耦网络可以是前述任一实施例的去耦网络。第一去耦网络30连接在对应的第一天线单元10a与射频芯片64之间。第二去耦网络30’则连接在对应的第二天线单元20a与射频芯片64之间。去耦传输线33a的两端分别连接在第一去耦网络30a及第二去耦网络30a’的去耦合端口上。第一去耦网络30为三端口网络,包括闭环结构34、第一传输线31a和第二传输线32a,两个三端口网络之间连接去耦传输线33a之后能降低两个天线单元10a、20a之间的耦合。举例而言,从射频芯片64发出的信号经过第一馈线65输入第一传输线31a之后,一部分通过第一分支341进入第二传输线32a,再经第二馈线67传输至天线单元10a的内层辐射片12a,另一部分经第二分支342进入去耦传输线33a,进而传输至相邻的天线单元20a,从而抵消两个天线单元10a、20a之间的耦合。In addition, the third substrate 63 is also used to carry multiple decoupling networks and decoupling transmission lines 33a, and the decoupling network may be the decoupling network of any of the foregoing embodiments. The first decoupling network 30 is connected between the corresponding first antenna unit 10 a and the radio frequency chip 64. The second decoupling network 30' is connected between the corresponding second antenna unit 20a and the radio frequency chip 64. The two ends of the decoupling transmission line 33a are respectively connected to the decoupling ports of the first decoupling network 30a and the second decoupling network 30a'. The first decoupling network 30 is a three-port network, including a closed loop structure 34, a first transmission line 31a, and a second transmission line 32a. After the two three-port networks are connected to the decoupling transmission line 33a, the distance between the two antenna units 10a, 20a can be reduced Coupling. For example, after the signal from the radio frequency chip 64 is input to the first transmission line 31a through the first feeder 65, a part of it enters the second transmission line 32a through the first branch 341, and then is transmitted to the inner layer of the antenna unit 10a through the second feeder 67 for radiation. The other part of the sheet 12a enters the decoupling transmission line 33a through the second branch 342, and then is transmitted to the adjacent antenna unit 20a, thereby canceling the coupling between the two antenna units 10a, 20a.
一些实施例中,接地层665上开设的条形槽665c延伸至闭环结构34的第一输出端口和第二输出端口之间,并且,第一输出端口和第二输出端口相对于条形槽665c对称。此外,微带连接线343设置为圆弧形,且微带连接线343相对于条形槽665c对称。从而可以使得功分器主体34的第一输出端口和第二输出端口之间的干扰影响等幅反相、相互抵消,进而使得第一输出端口和第二输出端口之间将互相不再有影响,因此,可显著提升功分器主体的两个输出端口之间的隔离度。In some embodiments, the strip groove 665c opened on the ground layer 665 extends between the first output port and the second output port of the closed loop structure 34, and the first output port and the second output port are opposite to the strip groove 665c. symmetry. In addition, the microstrip connection line 343 is arranged in a circular arc shape, and the microstrip connection line 343 is symmetrical with respect to the strip groove 665c. Thereby, the interference effects between the first output port and the second output port of the power divider main body 34 can be inverted and cancel each other in equal amplitude, so that the first output port and the second output port will no longer affect each other. Therefore, the isolation between the two output ports of the main body of the power splitter can be significantly improved.
两个天线单元10a、20a之间的耦合度可以通过该去耦网络的散射参数和去耦传输线33a的长度来进行定义。具体地,如上述阵列天线的实施例,本实施例的天线装置60的去耦网络的去耦传输线33a的长度d5以及去耦网络的S参数以及预设耦合度满足以下关系:
The degree of coupling between the two antenna elements 10a, 20a can be defined by the scattering parameters of the decoupling network and the length of the decoupling transmission line 33a. Specifically, as in the foregoing embodiment of the array antenna, the length d5 of the decoupling transmission line 33a of the decoupling network of the antenna device 60 in this embodiment, the S parameter of the decoupling network and the preset coupling degree satisfy the following relationship:

一些实施例中,去耦传输线33a的长度和功分器的功分比根据两个天线单元10a、20a之间的初始隔离度来进行配置。具体地,功分器的功分比根据初始隔离度的强度来进行配置,去耦传输线33a的长度则根据初始隔离度的相位来进行配置。例如,功分器的功分比与初始隔离度的强度之间、以及去耦传输线33a的长度与初始隔离度的相位之间的关系满足前述关系式(21)和(22)。In some embodiments, the length of the decoupling transmission line 33a and the power division ratio of the power divider are configured according to the initial isolation between the two antenna units 10a, 20a. Specifically, the power division ratio of the power divider is configured according to the strength of the initial isolation, and the length of the decoupling transmission line 33a is configured according to the phase of the initial isolation. For example, the relationship between the power division ratio of the power divider and the strength of the initial isolation, and the relationship between the length of the decoupling transmission line 33a and the phase of the initial isolation satisfy the aforementioned relational expressions (21) and (22).
一些实施例中,功分器的功分比具体可以通过配置第一分支341和第二分支342的特性阻抗来实现。例如第一分支341的特性阻抗Z

12)满足上述关系式(24)。
In some embodiments, the power division ratio of the power divider can be specifically realized by configuring the characteristic impedance of the first branch 341 and the second branch 342.

5时,去耦传输线33a可以形成弯折的图案,以满足长度的要求(如图6所示)。在其他一些实施例中,去耦传输线33a也可以呈弯曲的图案。本申请的第一去耦网络30、第二去耦网络30’与表层辐射片11a、21a和内层辐射片12a、22a位于不同的层。如图7所示,去耦传输线33a设置在天线单元10a、20a的下方,例如第三基板63内。图7所示的第一去耦网络30和第二去耦网络30’以及连接在他们之间的去耦传输线33与金属层666位于同一层,即,设置在第三基板63的最靠近接地层665的半固化片及其相邻的半固化片之间。可以理解地,在其他一些实施例中,第一去耦网络30和第二去耦网络30’以及连接在他们之间的去耦传输线33也可以与金属层667或者668同层。
The first decoupling network 30 and the decoupling transmission line 33 may be arranged on a layer of the third substrate 63, for example, the third substrate 63 is on the prepreg near the radio frequency chip 64 or on the prepreg in the middle. The first decoupling network 30 and the decoupling transmission line 33 shown in FIG. 7 are arranged on the prepreg with the third substrate 63 in the middle, that is, the same layer as the metal layer 666. The first decoupling network 30 and the ground layer 665 are separated by a part of the third substrate 63 (ie, the prepreg close to the second substrate). The closed-loop structure 34 of the first decoupling network 30, the first transmission line 31a, the second transmission line 32a, and the decoupling transmission line 33 all extend on this layer and form a pattern. In some embodiments, the length may be formed on the layer where the metal layer 666 satisfies the desired decoupling length d of the transmission line 33a 5. When will be appreciated, the linear distance between adjacent antenna elements corresponding to the feeder is less than d 5, decoupling the transmission line pattern 33a may be formed bent to meet the desired length (Figure 6). In some other embodiments, the decoupling transmission line 33a may also be in a curved pattern. The first decoupling network 30 and the second decoupling network 30' of the present application are located on different layers from the surface radiating sheets 11a, 21a and the inner radiating sheets 12a, 22a. As shown in FIG. 7, the decoupling transmission line 33 a is disposed under the antenna units 10 a and 20 a, for example, in the third substrate 63. The first decoupling network 30 and the second decoupling network 30' shown in FIG. 7 and the decoupling transmission line 33 connected between them are located on the same layer as the metal layer 666, that is, they are arranged on the third substrate 63 closest to the ground. Between the prepreg of layer 665 and its adjacent prepreg. Understandably, in some other embodiments, the first decoupling network 30 and the second decoupling network 30' and the decoupling transmission line 33 connected between them may also be the same layer as the metal layer 667 or 668.
去耦传输线33a也可以分布在不同的层,例如,去耦传输线33a的一部分分布在金属层666所在层,另一部分通过过孔而分布在金属层667所在层;或者,去耦传输线33a的一部分分布在金属层666所在层,一部分通过过孔分布在金属层667所在层,另一部分穿过过孔而分布在金属层668所在层。The decoupling transmission line 33a can also be distributed in different layers, for example, a part of the decoupling transmission line 33a is distributed in the layer where the metal layer 666 is located, and the other part is distributed in the layer where the metal layer 667 is located through via holes; or, a part of the decoupling transmission line 33a It is distributed in the layer where the metal layer 666 is located, one part is distributed in the layer where the metal layer 667 is located through the via hole, and the other part is distributed in the layer where the metal layer 668 is located through the via hole.
在一些实施例中,沿第二分支342到去耦传输线33a的中间位置的方向,特性阻抗可以逐渐变化。传输线特性阻抗的变化可以通过传输线的线宽变化来实现。一些实施例中,从第二分支342到去耦传输线33a的中间位置,线宽逐渐变化。一些实施例中,从第二分支342到去耦传输线33a的中间位置,去耦传输线33a的线宽逐级变化。例如,图6所示的去耦传输线33a包括依次连接的第一段331a、第二段332a和第三段333a,其中,每一段自身的宽度可以是均匀的。第一段331a和第三段333a的宽度相同。第二分支342的宽度小于第一段331a的宽度。第一段331a的宽度小于第二段332a的宽度。相邻的去耦网络的第二分支342的宽度小于第三段333a的宽度。第三段333a的宽度小于第二段332a的宽度。因此,从第二分支342到第一段331a到第二段332a,以及从第二分支342到第三段333a到第二段332a,特性小阻抗逐级变化,直至到第二段332a的特性阻抗达到50Ω。通过多级阻抗变换,第二分支342和去耦传输线33a的合适的特性阻抗能够实现多个频率点上面的全匹配,增加匹配的节数使得出现匹配的频率点也跟着增多,带宽也随之变宽。其中,第二分支342的特性阻抗可以根据功分器的功分比计算,如上述关系式(24),其宽度可以由该特性阻抗计算得出;第二段332a的特性阻抗则为50Ω,其宽度也可以由该特性阻抗计算出;第一段331a和第三段333a的特性阻抗则可以等于第一分支342和第二段332a的特性阻抗的乘积的开方,其宽度可根据该计算出的特性阻抗进行计算。当然,在其它一些实施例中,去耦传输线33a的宽度也可以分3级、4级或更多级变化。可以理解地,去耦传输线33a的宽度可以呈连续变化。In some embodiments, the characteristic impedance may gradually change along the direction from the second branch 342 to the middle position of the decoupling transmission line 33a. The change of the characteristic impedance of the transmission line can be realized by the change of the line width of the transmission line. In some embodiments, the line width gradually changes from the second branch 342 to the middle position of the decoupling transmission line 33a. In some embodiments, the line width of the decoupling transmission line 33a changes step by step from the second branch 342 to the middle position of the decoupling transmission line 33a. For example, the decoupling transmission line 33a shown in FIG. 6 includes a first section 331a, a second section 332a, and a third section 333a that are sequentially connected, wherein the width of each section may be uniform. The width of the first section 331a and the third section 333a are the same. The width of the second branch 342 is smaller than the width of the first section 331a. The width of the first section 331a is smaller than the width of the second section 332a. The width of the second branch 342 of the adjacent decoupling network is smaller than the width of the third section 333a. The width of the third section 333a is smaller than the width of the second section 332a. Therefore, from the second branch 342 to the first section 331a to the second section 332a, and from the second branch 342 to the third section 333a to the second section 332a, the characteristic impedance changes step by step until the characteristic of the second section 332a The impedance reaches 50Ω. Through the multi-stage impedance transformation, the appropriate characteristic impedance of the second branch 342 and the decoupling transmission line 33a can achieve full matching at multiple frequency points. Increasing the number of matching nodes will increase the frequency points where matching occurs and the bandwidth. Widen. Among them, the characteristic impedance of the second branch 342 can be calculated according to the power division ratio of the power divider, as shown in the above relation (24), its width can be calculated from the characteristic impedance; the characteristic impedance of the second section 332a is 50Ω, Its width can also be calculated from the characteristic impedance; the characteristic impedance of the first segment 331a and the third segment 333a can be equal to the square root of the product of the characteristic impedance of the first branch 342 and the second segment 332a, and the width can be calculated according to this The characteristic impedance is calculated. Of course, in some other embodiments, the width of the decoupling transmission line 33a can also be changed in three, four or more levels. It is understandable that the width of the decoupling transmission line 33a can be continuously changed.
在一些实施例中,去耦传输线33a上还可以设置枝节334a和335a(如图6所示),枝节334a和335a设置在第三段333a,用以调整去耦网络的传输特性。In some embodiments, stubs 334a and 335a (as shown in FIG. 6) may be further provided on the decoupling transmission line 33a, and the stubs 334a and 335a are provided in the third section 333a to adjust the transmission characteristics of the decoupling network.
第二传输线32a的长度可以为3/4λ。如图6所示的实施例中,第二传输线32a在去耦传输线33所在层上形成朝远离去耦传输线33的方向弯折或弯曲的图案。The length of the second transmission line 32a may be 3/4λ. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, the second transmission line 32 a forms a pattern that is bent or bent in a direction away from the decoupling transmission line 33 on the layer where the decoupling transmission line 33 is located.
