在图1所示的天线阵中,在底板101的垂直方向上排列了四个水平阵列元天线102,每个水平阵列元天线102包含四个单元天线103,即该天线阵为4x4。其中,水平阵列元天线102中的每个单元天线103在水平面上均覆盖一定的角度,从而实现4个单元天线103在水平360度的全部覆盖,进而实现水平圆极化天线。4个水平阵列元天线102在垂直方向上堆叠,实现了天线阵的高增益,其中,底板101为金属材料,一般使用铝合金材料,底板101上设置多个螺丝钉孔,便于多个水平阵列元天线的固定。
需要说明的是,天线阵中的水平阵列元天线的数量也可以为3个、4个、5个、6个等,其中每个水平阵列元天线中的单元天线的数量也可以为3个、4个、5个、6个等。相应地,天线阵可能以3x4、4x4、5x4、4x6等方式组合,也就是说,本申请中,天线阵中的水平阵列元天线的个数和单元天线个数根据天线实际使用需要设置。
本申请实施中,通过多个单元天线组成水平阵列元天线,实现水平方向上的信号全覆盖,进而实现了天线圆极化。其次,通过在底板垂直方向堆叠多个水平阵列元天线,故在实现水平圆极化天线情况下,实现天线阵的高增益。
可选的,天线阵还包括天线罩,天线罩为玻璃钢材料。
另外,天线罩的材质还可以为高硅氧玻璃纤维、种玻璃纤维、高硅氧、玻璃纤维以及芳纶纤维等。通过在天线阵的外部设置天线罩,提高了天线阵工作的可靠性,防止其他因素对天线阵工作造成影响,玻璃钢的高透波率减小了天线罩对天线阵接收和反射电磁波信号的影响。
参见图1,天线阵还包括固定在底板上的支撑架104,支撑架104的数量与一个水平阵列元天线102包含的单元天线103的数量对应,每个支撑架104用于支撑直方向上的多个单元天线103。
具体地,天线阵通过支撑架104对单元天线103进行支撑,保证一个方位上的多个单元天线103在垂直方向上的叠加,达到高增益天线阵的效果,其中,支撑架104为金属材料,一般使用铝合金材料。
举例来说,一个天线阵为4x4结构,即该天线阵中的水平阵列元天线为4个,其中,每个水平阵列元天线中的单元天线为4个,则该天线阵支撑架的数量也为4个,4个支撑架分别分布于该天线阵的前后左右四个方位,每个支撑架用于支撑位于相同方位的4个单元天线。
在一些实施例中,支撑架104可以为空心结构,这样节省了天线材料的成本,还可以减轻整个天线阵的重量,以实现天线阵的轻便性。

若该天线阵是为4x4结构,且单元天线的第一辐射单元201为L辐射单元,第二辐射单元202为S辐射单元,则天线阵有16个单元天线,16个单元天线上有16个L辐射单元,16个S辐射单元。
需要说明的是,第一辐射单元也可以为无线电波段为L波段、S波段、C波段、X波段、Ku波段、K波段、Ka波段、U波段、V波段、W波段任意一个波段的微带天线,第二辐射单元同上。另外,一个单元天线也可以包括两个以上的辐射单元,对此,本申请不做具体限定。
