Abstract

La présente invention concerne un déphaseur intégré à une alimentation et une antenne utilisant celui-ci. Le déphaseur comprend une cavité, un réseau de déphasage, un canal radiofréquence et un canal à courant continu. Un port d'entrée de signal est disposé au niveau de la cavité. Le canal radiofréquence et le réseau de déphasage sont disposés dans la cavité. Une extrémité du canal radiofréquence est connectée au port d'entrée de signal, et son autre extrémité est connectée au réseau de déphasage. Le canal à courant continu est connecté électriquement à l'extrémité du canal radiofréquence qui est connectée au port d'entrée de signal. Étant donné que le canal à courant continu est spatialement séparé du canal radiofréquence et du réseau de déphasage, et que le canal radiofréquence et le réseau de déphasage sont conçus pour partager la cavité, la taille du déphaseur peut être considérablement réduite, et une antenne utilisant le déphaseur présente d'excellentes caractéristiques d'adaptation et une largeur de bande plus large.
