Description
本发明涉及移动通信技术领域,具体而言,本发明涉及一种耦合结构及应用该耦合结构的谐振结构、辐射单元、低频天线和电磁边界。
随着移动通信系统的发展,基站天线和滤波器、合路器、双工器等用于通信系统的产品和部件也得到了快速的发展,耦合结构常被用于天线辐射单元的馈电结构、辐射臂、电磁边界和具有滤波特性的传输线路当中。
众所周知地,耦合结构的耦合量(在容性耦合结构中一般指电容)与电荷量成正比,也关联于具有电势差的极板的重叠面积。请参考图1,图1为常规耦合结构的原理图,从图上可以看出,耦合结构中电场方向由高电势(带正电荷)的导体指向低电势(带负电荷)的导体,电荷主要集中于上层导体的下表面和下层导体的上表面。因而,为了实现大的耦合量,尽可能采用较宽的微带线或金属层来构成耦合结构,或者采用多层金属间耦合来实现所需耦合量。
然而,在耦合结构应用于天线中,例如应用于辐射单元作为辐射臂使用时,由宽微带线(或金属层)形成的耦合结构面积较大,在提供足够耦合量的同时,当邻居放置的其他辐射单元处于工作状态时,容易产生较强的感应电流,进而影响邻居放置的其他辐射单元的性能指标。
而采用多层PCB制作耦合器件以实现所需大耦合量,工艺较为复杂,成本较高。
发明内容
本发明的首要目的旨在提供一种结构简单并可有利于在提供所需耦合量基础上缩小尺寸的耦合结构。
本发明的另一目的旨在提供一种采用上述耦合结构的谐振结构。
本发明的另一目的旨在提供一种采用上述谐振结构的低频辐射单元。
本发明的另一目的旨在提供一种采用上述辐射单元的天线。
本发明的另一目的旨在提供一种采用上述谐振结构的电磁边界。
为实现以上目的,本发明提供以下技术方案:
第一方面,提供了一种耦合结构,包括至少两层具有容性耦合关系的导体,每层导体均包括多个并排且具有间隙的导体带,相同一层的多个导体带中,至少一个导体带在工作时与相邻导体带存在电势差,相异两层的导体带之间,其中一层的至少一个导体带与另一层的至少一个导体带存在电势差,且在彼此相互投影方向上至少部分重叠。

可选地,两个所述导体段分设于导体带的两端。
可选地,相同一层的多个导体带中,相邻的每两个导体带之间因分别工作于两种不同电势而存在电势差。
可选地,相同一层的导体带中,至少两个工作于一种电势的导体带之间设置有两个工作于另一电势的导体带。
可选地,工作于高电势的导体带的数量与工作于低电势的导体带的数量相同或不同。
可选地,沿各层导体带层叠的方向上,导体带的投影面积之和大于导体带之间的间隙的投影面积之和。
可选地,在相同一层导体上,导体带的宽度之和大于导体带之间的间 隙的宽度之和。
作为第二方面,本发明涉及一种谐振结构,包括电容和电感,所述电容与电感串联或并联,其中,所述电容由上述耦合结构构成。
可选地,所述电感包括设于介质基板上的折线型导体或环绕型导体。
作为第三方面,本发明涉及一种低频辐射单元,包括辐射臂,所述辐射臂包括上述的谐振结构。
可选地,所述辐射臂为多个所述谐振结构连接形成的环形辐射臂。
作为第四方面,本发明涉及一种天线,包括低频辐射单元,所述低频辐射单元为上述的低频辐射单元。
进一步地,所述天线还包括高频辐射单元,所述高频辐射单元设于相邻两个所述低频辐射单元之间,和/或,高频辐射单元设于所述低频辐射单元相邻两个辐射臂之间。
进一步地,所述天线还包括电磁边界,所述电磁边界围设于低频辐射单元的四周。
可选地,所述电磁边界由多个所述谐振结构连接构成。
作为第四方面,本发明涉及一种电磁边界,用于设置在辐射单元之间用以避免辐射单元之间的干扰,所述电磁边界包括所述的谐振结构。

2.本发明的耦合结构中,工作于同一电势的导体带与一导体段连接,工作于另一电势的导体带连接于另一导体段,并且具体表现为,与导体段位于相同一层的导体带与导体段一体成型,与导体段位于相异两层的导体带通过金属化过孔与导体段连接,只需通过两个导体段来对所有导体带施加电压,使之形成耦合关系,结构较为简单。

应当理解,本发明的方法实施方式中记载的各个步骤可以按照不同的顺序执行,和/或并行执行。此外,方法实施方式可以包括附加的步骤和/或省略执行示出的步骤。本发明的范围在此方面不受限制。
本文使用的术语“包括”及其变形是开放性包括,即“包括但不限于”。术语“连接”可以是直接相接,也可是通过中间部件(元件)间接连接。术语“一个实施例”表示“至少一个实施例”;术语“另一实施例”表示“至少一个另外的实施例”;术语“一些实施例”表示“至少一些实施例”。其他术语的相关定义将在下文描述中给出。
需要注意,本发明中提及的“第一”、“第二”等概念仅用于对装置、模块或单元进行区分,并非用于限定这些装置、模块或单元一定为不同的装置、模块或单元,也并非用于限定这些装置、模块或单元所执行的功能 的顺序或者相互依存关系。
参见图2至图8,作为第一方面,本发明涉及一种耦合结构10,主要表现为容性耦合特性,可作为一种电容单独使用,也可与电感元件连接构成LC谐振结构,适用于基站天线的馈电结构、辐射单元的辐射臂及电磁边界中,用于在提供所需耦合量的前提下缩小耦合结构的尺寸,进而有利于天线的小型化设计,另外,该耦合结构用在LC谐振结构时主要体现电容特性,使得谐振结构具有较低的谐振频率,具有低频带通,高频带阻的特性,可增强多频天线的辐射性能。
所述耦合结构10包括至少两层导体,相邻两层导体之间层叠设置,以在相邻两层导体上施加电压时,两层导体之间具有电势差而形成电容,即具有容性耦合关系。
所述至少两层导体可以通过介质板3支撑,当导体设有两层时,两层导体分设于介质板的正反两面;当导体设有三层或以上层数时,介质板为多层介质板,多层导体沿介质板厚度方向分层设置,并且其中两层导体分设在介质板最外面的两个表面。
所述导体也可通过介质支撑件与导体点接触的方式来支撑,位于上层的导体相对下层导体悬空设置。
由此,将导体分层层叠设置,使得相异两层导体之间形成耦合间隙,在施加电压后,相异两层导体之间可形成耦合关系。
以下以耦合结构10具有两层导体1、2为例说明本发明的耦合结构的具体结构及工作原理。
所述耦合结构包括两层导体1、2及介质板3,两层所述导体1、2分设于介质板3的正面与反面。每层导体包括多个导体带,所述多个导体带之间并排且具有间隙设置;相邻两层导体的导体带之间,上层导体带与下层导体带的相互投影至少部分重叠。
在一种具体实施方式中,每层导体的多个导体带工作于高电势与低电势两种具有电势差的电势,在导体带上施加电压,即导体带工作时,其中部分导体带呈高电势,另一部分导体带呈低电势,从而可形成由高电势指向低电势的电场,即在相同一层的导体带之间形成耦合关系。
在相邻两层的导体带之间,位于上层的多个导体带与位于下层的多个导体带一一对应正对并且投影相互重合设置,并且上层导体带与下层对应的一个导体带之间电势相反,从而在相异两层的每两个对应导体带之间形成由高电势指向低电势的电场。
请结合图3,在图3中,用+号表示高电势,用-表示低电势。在本实施例中,耦合结构具有四个导体带,每层具有两个导体带。导体带11和导体带12位于介质板3的正面,导体带21和导体带22位于介质板3的反面,并且同一面的两个导体带之间以间隙分隔开。
在相同一层的两个导体带中,对于介质板3正面的导体带11和导体带12,导体带11带正电荷而呈高电势,导体带12带负电荷而呈低电势;对于介质板反面的导体带21和导体带22,导体带21带正电荷而呈高电势,导体带22带负电荷而呈低电势,以使得相同一层的两个导体带由于携带不同电荷而导致电势相反,具有电势差,可形成由高电势导体带指向低电势导体带的电场。
而在相异两层的导体带之间,导体带11和导体带22正对且电势相反,导体带12和导体带21正对且电势相反,因而可在相异两层导体带之间形成由高电势导体带指向低电势导体带的电场。
从图中可以看出,以上示例的耦合结构中,电场由高电势的导体带指向低电势的导体带的路径包括位于介质板内部的路径和位于介质板表面的路径,使得导体带的正面和反面都可以携带电荷,相对于常规耦合结构可携带更多电荷,从而具有更大的耦合电容。
图4为本发明提供的耦合结构的等效电路图,示出了上述耦合结构的耦合量既有电容C1,又有C2,相对于常规耦合结构,增加C2这一耦合量。为了对比本发明耦合结构与常规耦合结构的耦合量大小,采用投影尺寸相同(同为20平方厘米)的上述耦合结构和常规耦合结构,并对其进行双端口S
21参数和单端口S
11参数仿真,形成图5和图6所示的耦合结构双端口S
21参数和单端口S
11参数的仿真图,另外,;根据相应等效电路,可计算出表1所示的参数值。
表1等效电路的参数值
从等效电路的参数值可以看出,在投影尺寸相同的情况下,常规面耦合结构的耦合量只具有电容C1,而本发明耦合结构的耦合量具有电容C1和电容C2,本发明的耦合结构的电容量高于常规耦合结构,具有更好的耦合效果,这一特性有助于改善耦合结构在高频应用时的导通特性。这一特性也可等价描述为:假如设计所需的电容值相同,新型耦合结构可以具有更小的尺寸,这一特性有利于实现器件的小型化。
当需要更大的耦合量时,可在每层上设置更多的导体带来实现。请结合图7,该实施例为上述实施例的延伸,每层导体具有四个导体带,以一层导体的四个导体带为例,其中两个导体带11、13工作于高电势,另外两个导体带12、14工作于低电势,并且四个导体带以具有电势差的方式交替排布,从而在相同一层的每两个相邻导体带之间形成耦合关系,可以实现更大的耦合量。
另外,工作于两种电势的导体带的数量可以相等也可不等,在一种实施方式中,工作于一种电势的导体带的数量多于工作于另一电势的导体带,以实现特定的耦合量。
请结合图8,图中阴影所示的导体带12、14、16、18工作于一种电势,空白的导体带11、13、15、17工作于另一电势。由图可以看出,两个相邻且工作于同一电势的导体带15、17之间可设置有两个工作于另一电势的导体带16、18,工作于一电势的导体带与相邻且电势相反(即存在电势差)的导体带之间形成指向电场,具有耦合关系。
另外,相同一层中的多个导体带可施加多个电压,使多个导体带之间的电势沿一个方向递增,形成渐变的电场,从而可在相邻两个导体带之间形成耦合关系,提高耦合量。
此外,上下两层的对应导体带的相互投影可不完全重合,具有电势差的导体带之间的投影至少部分重叠,也可实现耦合功能。
总而言之,所述耦合结构中,至少一个导体带在施加电压工作时与相 邻的导体带之间存在电势差,从而产生由电势高的导体带指向电势低的导体带的电场,形成容性耦合关系。相异两层的导体带之间,其中一层的至少一个导体带在工作时与位于另一层的至少一个导体带存在电势差,且在彼此的投影上存在重叠区域,也可形成由电势高的导体带到电势低的导体带的电场,形成容性耦合关系。
由此,本发明的所述耦合结构中,既在相异两层的导体带之间形成高电势到低电势的电场,也在相同一层的相邻导体带之间形成高电势到低电势的电场,相对于常规面耦合的结构而言,本发明的耦合结构为带耦合,具有更多的耦合路径,实现更大的耦合量,换言之,当实现相同耦合量时,本发明的耦合结构的尺寸更小。
请结合图2a、图2b和图7,可选地,所述耦合结构还包括两个导体段4,用于与外部传输线连接为耦合结构接入电压,所述导体段4具体包括第一导体段41和第二导体段42,所述第一导体段41和第二导体段42设于介质板3的其中一个表面并与所述导体带连接。
在图2a中,工作于高电势的导体带11、21连接于第二导体段42,工作于低电势的导体带12、22连接于第一导体段41。在图7中,工作于高电势的导体带11、13连接于第二导体段42,工作于低电势的导体带12、14连接于第一导体段41,导体带之间以具有电势差的方式交替设置。由此,在两个导体段上施加电压时,与第二导体段42连接的导体带均带正电荷,与第一导体段41连接的导体带均带负电荷,带有不同电荷的导体带之间具有电势差,形成耦合关系。
由上可知,导体带在介质板上分层设置,并且设有至少两层,而导体段设在介质板的表面(也即介质板表面的一层),为了实现导体段对导体带的供能(即导体段向导体带提供所需电荷),其中,与导体段位于相同一层的导体带与该导体段一体成型,而与该导体段不在相同一层的导体带则通过金属化过孔与导体段连接,由此,可通过两个导体段来对导体带进行供能,并使每层导体都具有工作于高电势和低电势两种不同工作电势的导体带,使耦合结构的电路布局更为简洁。
较佳地,所述第一导体段与第二导体段分设于导体带的两端,以在其 应用于电路时将电路的输入和输出设在导体带的两端,方便线路设计。
以上示例的耦合结构中,容性耦合关系在两层导体之间形成,通过增加电场的指向路径,提高了耦合量,在实现相同耦合量时,相对于宽微带线的耦合结构,缩小了尺寸;相对于多层PCB的耦合结构,仅使用单层电路板即可达到耦合量目标,降低成本。
作为延伸地,所述耦合结构具有多层导体,多层导体沿介质板厚度方向层叠设置。每层导体的设置及相异两层导体的关系与上述实施方式相同,在此不作赘述。由此,可在相邻的每两层导体的导体带之间形成耦合关系,从而可以实现更大的耦合量。
每层导体的所述多个导体带可由平面导体切割而成,其中相邻导体之间具有间隙,并且沿导体层叠的方向上,导体带的投影面积之和大于导体带之间的间隙的投影面积之和。可选地,在相同一层导体上,导体带的宽度之和大于导体带之间的间隙的宽度之和,使得去除的导体的面积小于新增的可携带电荷的面积,从而相对常规耦合结构可实现更大的耦合量。
请结合图9至图12,作为第二方面,本发明涉及一种谐振结构,为上述耦合结构的一种实际应用,其可应用于天线振子用以辐射信号。所述谐振结构具体表现为上述耦合结构10与电感20串联(或并联),形成LC串联谐振结构(或LC并联谐振结构),具有在谐振频率导通、在偏离谐振频率呈现高阻抗的特性,在其用于辐射臂后将使辐射臂具有带通型的滤波特性,同时还将使辐射臂的尺寸得到进一步减小。
参见图9,在一种实施方式中,所述电感为折线型电感,具体为设置在介质板上且具有电感特性的折线型导体,其与所述耦合结构中的一个导体段连接,实现折线型电感与耦合结构的串联。
参见图10,在另一种实施方式中,所述电感为环绕型电感,具体为设置在介质板上且具有电感特性的环绕型导体,其与所述耦合结构中的一个导体段连接,实现环绕型电感与耦合结构的串联。
为说明本发明的耦合结构可使辐射臂尺寸减小的特性,以下对三种直线型对称振子进行对比,如图11所示,设置三个计算模型diople_1、dipole_2和dipole_3的长度相同,其中,diople_1为常规的对称振子、 dipole_2为加载了环绕型电感的对称振子、dipole_3为加载了由本发明的耦合结构和环绕型电感组成的LC串联谐振电路的对称振子,并限定三种振子所使用的介质板3的参数相同,用仿真软件计算得到的回波损耗如图12所示。从图12可以看出,使用了由本发明的耦合结构加环绕型电感的对称振子的谐振频率最低,这也意味着假如设计谐振频率相同的对称振子,dipole_3的结构可以具有最小的尺寸。
请结合图13至图15,作为第三方面,本发明涉及一种低频辐射单元,包括辐射面及用于支撑辐射面并为之馈电的馈电巴伦5,其中,辐射面包括呈十字排布的四个辐射臂,所述辐射臂优选为环形辐射臂,其由上述谐振结构连接形成。
其中,图13所示的低频辐射单元中,单个耦合结构具有四个导体带;图15所示的低频辐射单元中,单个耦合结构具有八个导体带,相对于四个导体带的耦合结构,可实现更大的耦合量。
通过采用上述谐振结构作为低频辐射单元辐射臂的构成元素,相对于采用常规谐振结构的辐射臂,谐振频率更低,因而可以缩小辐射臂的尺寸,有利于天线的小型化。
请结合图20,作为第四方面,本发明还涉及一种天线1000,其包括上述低频辐射单元100、高频辐射单元200和电磁边界300,其中,高频辐射单元设于相邻两个低频辐射单元之间,和/或,高频辐射单元设于低频辐射单元的相邻两个辐射臂之间,电磁边界300围设于低频辐射单元100四周并用于减小辐射单元之间的干扰,增强天线的辐射性能。
通过采用上述谐振结构作为低频辐射单元辐射臂的构成元素,相对于采用常规谐振结构的辐射臂,谐振频率更低,因而可以缩小辐射臂的尺寸,有利于天线的小型化。
另外,当电磁边界的带通特性被配置为与低频辐射单元100相同,在高频辐射单元的频段呈现高阻特性时,可改善低频辐射单元的性能,同时减弱对高频辐射单元的影响。
另外,本发明的耦合结构也可应用于电磁边界中,因此,请结合图16至图19,作为第五方面,本发明还提供应用上述谐振结构的电磁边界, 其由多个上述谐振结构连接而成,用于设置在辐射单元之间以减小辐射单元之间的干扰,增强天线的辐射性能。
图16示出的电磁边界中,所述耦合结构具有介质板,其中导体带的长度方向平行于介质板的长度方向;图17示出的电磁边界中,所述耦合结构具有介质板,其中导体带的长度方向垂直于介质板的长度方向。换言之,本发明的电磁边界,可由技术人员根据实际需要来设置导体带的延伸方向,以合理利用介质板的空间和方便线路设计。
由于本发明的耦合结构的等效电路中的电感量较小(远小于折线型电感的电感值),实际应用时主要呈现电容特性,和折线型电感连接后的等效电路如图18所示,本发明的电磁边界可视为由多个谐振结构级联而成。该电路的频率响应特性如图19所示,该电磁边界呈现出的带通特性使得新型的电磁边界可用于多频天线中改善特定频段的辐射单元指标。
以上描述仅为本发明的较佳实施例以及对所运用技术原理的说明。本领域技术人员应当理解,本发明中所涉及的发明范围,并不限于上述技术特征的特定组合而成的技术方案,同时也应涵盖在不脱离上述发明构思的情况下,由上述技术特征或其等同特征进行任意组合而形成的其它技术方案。例如上述特征与本发明中发明的(但不限于)具有类似功能的技术特征进行互相替换而形成的技术方案。
