现阶段的工程应用中,往往将天线与滤波器分开单独设计,再设计额外的外接匹配电路将二者连接调试,这种方法通常不仅不能得到最佳的匹配,且容易带来较大的插入损耗,有时还会增加设备的尺寸。
因此为降低损耗,且实现小型化,发明人考虑将滤波特性与天线结合起来,实现天线的滤波特性。通过滤波器与天线直接级联,进行一体化设计,以减少非必要的外接匹配电路,从而减少匹配损耗,但是滤波器的插入损耗依然存在。
为了进一步降低插入损耗,发明人考虑将滤波器天线融合设计,使天线既具有辐射功能,又具有滤波功能,同时不存在额外的插入损耗。
在滤波器天线融合设计中,天线作为滤波器的最后一阶谐振器谐振实现滤波功能,通过改变天线结构,如蚀刻缝隙、增加金属过孔、或增加超材料结构等方式改变天线的传输模式来产生传输零点,从而 实现滤波功能。

可选地,天线地14置于第三介质基片13远离第二介质基片12的一侧。
第一馈电结构21用于传输电磁波信号;第二馈电结构22用于向辐射结构耦合馈电;滤波结构23用于进行滤波。
可选地,第一馈电结构21由金属或其他导体材料构成,例如为金属过孔。第一馈电结构21可以与微带线连接,从而实现电磁波信号传输。
可选地,如图1所示,第二介质基片12靠近第一介质基片11的一侧或者第一介质基片11靠近第二介质基片12的一侧覆盖特定的金属图形,以形成第二馈电结构22。第二馈电结构22用于向辐射 结构耦合馈电。
可选地,如图1所示,在第三介质基片13靠近第二介质基片12的一侧或者第二介质基片12靠近第三介质基片13的一侧覆盖特定的金属图形,以形成滤波结构23。滤波结构23用于改变天线的传输模式来产生传输零点,从而进行滤波。
本申请实施例提供的天线单元结构简单,通过将天线与滤波器融合设计,可以在实现低通、带通、高通、带阻滤波特性的前提下,降低设备尺寸,具有低成本、高稳定性以及良好的滤波特性。
综上所述,本申请实施例提供的天线单元,包括:第一介质基片、第二介质基片、第三介质基片、辐射结构以及至少一组传输单元,传输单元包括第一馈电结构、第二馈电结构以及滤波结构;第二介质基片设置于第一介质基片和第三介质基片之间,辐射结构设置于第一介质基片远离第二介质基片的一侧,第二馈电结构开设于第二介质基片,滤波结构开设于第三介质基片,第一馈电结构穿设于第二介质基片和第三介质基片,第一馈电结构与第二馈电结构、滤波结构连接;第一馈电结构用于传输电磁波信号;第二馈电结构用于向辐射结构耦合馈电;滤波结构用于进行滤波。通过将天线与滤波器融合设计,降低设备尺寸,具有低成本、高稳定性以及良好的滤波特性。
相对于将天线单元与滤波器独立设计的方案中,实现良好滤波特性的天线需要多次压合、结构复杂,极大的增加天线的成本。本申请实施例中的天线单元中的各个部件均在介质基片上直接完成,因此结构简单、易于制造,便于PCB加工,仅需一次压合即可完成,在实现低成本的同时具有优良的滤波特性,对于实际工程应用具有较大的意义。
请参考图2,图2为本申请实施例提供的常规天线和滤波天线的滤波效果对比示意图。假设,滤波天线的工作频段为14GHz-14.5GHz,需要对10GHz-13GHz进行滤波,传输零点在12.5GHz左右,滤波天线的滤波特性如图2所示:滤波天线工作在 14GHz-14.55GHz,增益全频段大于5dB,在10GHz-13GHz,天线增益小于-15dB,全频段抑制大于20dB,在12.6GHz形成辐射零点,达到需要的滤波效果。而常规的非滤波天线在10GHz-13GHz,增益小于0dB,抑制仅有5dB,滤波效果远远低于本申请实施例提供的滤波天线。
请继续参考图1,关于如何保障天线单元的性能,本申请实施例还提供了一种可能的实现方式。第二馈电结构22与辐射结构31在第二介质基片12的投影至少部分重叠。
应理解,重叠面积的大小与预设的工作频率相关。
可选地,第二馈电结构22的一端与第一馈电结构21连接,第二馈电结构22的另一端指向辐射结构31在第二介质基片12上投影的几何中心。
请参考图3,图3为本申请实施例提供的天线单元的俯视图。如图3所示,在一种可能的实现方式中,滤波结构23包括第一滤波组件231和第二滤波组件232,第一馈电结构21与第一滤波组件231的一端连接,第一滤波组件231的另一端与第二滤波组件232连接。
第一滤波组件231和第二滤波组件232组成T形滤波结构。
在一种可能的实现方式中,第一滤波组件231远离第一馈电结构21的一端与第二滤波组件232中的长度L2方向相接触。
可选地,第一滤波组件231和第二滤波组件232为开设于在第三介质基片13靠近第二介质基片12的一侧或者第二介质基片12靠近第三介质基片13的一侧。
需要说明的是,第一滤波组件231和第二滤波组件232可以不限定为直线,也可以为有幅度的曲线。
在一种可能实现方式中,为了提升滤波效果,第一滤波组件231的另一端连接于第二滤波组件232的中点。
请继续参考图3,第一滤波组件的长度为第一长度L1,第一滤波组件的宽度为第一宽度W1,第二滤波组件的长度为第二长度L2, 第二滤波组件的宽度为第二宽度W2。
第一长度L1、第一宽度W1、第二长度L2以及第二宽度W2与天线单元的辐射零点匹配,辐射零点用于指示待滤波的频段。
例如图2所示,辐射零点在12.6GHz,可以对10GHz-13GHz的频段起到滤波效果。
需要说明的是,通过调节T型滤波结构中L1、L2、W1和W2的尺寸,可以改变天线的辐射零点位置,所以在天线设计过程中,需要保证第一长度L1、第一宽度W1、第二长度L2以及第二宽度W2与天线单元的辐射零点匹配。
请继续参考图3,在一种可能的实现方式中,第一滤波组件231与第二馈电结构22在第三介质基片13上的投影之间的夹角为目标旋转角度。
目标旋转角度与天线单元的辐射零点匹配,辐射零点用于指示待滤波的频段。
应理解,T型滤波结构围绕第一馈电结构21旋转,可以改变天线的辐射零点位置。所以在天线设计过程中,需要提前确定目标旋转角度。目标旋转角度与天线单元的辐射零点匹配。
在一种可能的实现方式中,当传输单元20的数量大于1时,传输单元20围绕辐射结构31的中心点均与分布。
例如,传输单元20的数量为2时,基于辐射结构31的中心点可以旋转90°、180°、270°。
当传输单元20的数量为3时,传输单元20围绕辐射结构31的中心点可以呈圆形分布,3个传输单元20围绕辐射结构31的中心点旋转120°。
当传输单元20的数量为3时,传输单元20围绕辐射结构31的中心点可以呈非均匀分布,假定其中一个传输单元20的角度是0°,其余个传输单元20围绕辐射结构31的中心点有3种旋转组合,第一种是90°、180°,第一种是90°、270°,第一种是180°、270°。
当传输单元20的数量为4时,传输单元20围绕辐射结构31的中心点可以呈均匀分布,4个传输单元20围绕辐射结构31的中心点旋转90°。
在一种可能的实现方式中,辐射结构31的几何形状为圆形、矩形或多边形。
可选地,第一馈电结构21、第二馈电结构22以及滤波结构23为金属结构。
需要说明的是,3层微波介质基片特性(包括相对介电常数、损耗角正切以及厚度)可以相同或者不同,在此不做限定。
可选地,微波介质基片特性会影响到辐射结构31和馈电结构的大小、形状、面积等等。例如,介电常数大,辐射结构面积小,第二馈电结构22与辐射结构31相交面积小;损耗角大,则降低天线的增益。
为了便于理解,本申请实施例还提供了一种天线单元的侧视图,具体如图4所示。
本申请实施例还提供了一种滤波天线,滤波天线包括上述的天线单元。本申请方案中,滤波天线中的天线单元的数量不做限制。
