技术领域Technical Field
本公开涉及天线领域,具体而言,涉及一种介质天线阵列及一体化制备方法。The present disclosure relates to the field of antennas, and in particular to a dielectric antenna array and an integrated manufacturing method thereof.
背景技术Background technique
随着无线通信系统的普及,移动设备的数量激增,现有的频谱资源逐渐短缺,人们逐渐将研究的目光转向了毫米波通信。毫米波通信能够提供更高的传输速率,更宽的带宽,更大的信道容量,但同时它也存在辐射效率低,能量损耗大,馈电网络设计困难,加工难度大等问题。为此,人们迫切需要新的技术和材料来解决这些问题。With the popularization of wireless communication systems, the number of mobile devices has increased dramatically, and the existing spectrum resources have gradually become scarce. People have gradually turned their attention to millimeter wave communication. Millimeter wave communication can provide higher transmission rates, wider bandwidths, and larger channel capacities, but it also has problems such as low radiation efficiency, large energy loss, difficult feed network design, and difficult processing. Therefore, people urgently need new technologies and materials to solve these problems.
介质谐振器天线(Dielectric Resonator Antenna,简称DRA)因没有金属导体和表面波损耗再加上自身损耗低,能够获得很高的辐射效率。并且DRA的基本形状和馈电方式多种多样,设计更加灵活,因此DRA受到了广泛地关注和研究。但是,在毫米波频段,介质天线的常规加工方式,例如高温烧结、3D打印等制备工艺的精度不够,且不利于一体化加工及装配。Dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) can achieve high radiation efficiency due to the lack of metal conductors and surface wave losses and low self-loss. In addition, DRA has a variety of basic shapes and feeding methods, and its design is more flexible, so DRA has received extensive attention and research. However, in the millimeter wave frequency band, the conventional processing methods of dielectric antennas, such as high-temperature sintering, 3D printing and other preparation processes, are not accurate enough and are not conducive to integrated processing and assembly.
另外,移动设备的数量激增也会为负载平台的承受能力带来巨大的负担,电磁干扰也随之增多,单个天线替代多个天线已经成为发展的必然趋势。在保证天线性能指标的前提下,使用单个天线代替多个天线,可以大大减轻负载平台的承载量,降低成本,减小电磁干扰。因此,波束扫描天线逐渐受到研究者的重视。波束扫描天线,就是在同一天线阵列中有多个波束指向,天线的口径效率被充分地利用。一般情况,波束扫描天线具有好几个很窄的波束,提高了探测精度和灵敏度,从而信噪比得到提升。因此,波束扫描天线具有重要的研究前景及价值。但是,实现波束扫描需要保证扫描时,主瓣的高增益及低旁瓣等要求,而根据天线阵列的理论,扫描角度越大,主瓣增益降低的越多,旁瓣也可能会越高。In addition, the surge in the number of mobile devices will also bring a huge burden to the load platform's bearing capacity, and electromagnetic interference will also increase. It has become an inevitable trend for a single antenna to replace multiple antennas. Under the premise of ensuring the antenna performance indicators, using a single antenna instead of multiple antennas can greatly reduce the load capacity of the load platform, reduce costs, and reduce electromagnetic interference. Therefore, beam scanning antennas have gradually attracted the attention of researchers. Beam scanning antennas have multiple beam pointing in the same antenna array, and the aperture efficiency of the antenna is fully utilized. Generally, beam scanning antennas have several very narrow beams, which improves the detection accuracy and sensitivity, thereby improving the signal-to-noise ratio. Therefore, beam scanning antennas have important research prospects and value. However, the realization of beam scanning requires ensuring the high gain of the main lobe and low side lobes during scanning. According to the theory of antenna arrays, the larger the scanning angle, the more the main lobe gain is reduced, and the higher the side lobes may be.
综上所述,现有技术存在的问题是:频谱资源越来越紧缺,需要设计工作在毫米波频段的天线,同时要保证天线的加工精度以及天线的宽带宽,高增益,低副瓣以及宽角波束扫描等良好性能,且需要实现更加简便的一体化天线阵列制备工艺,省去后期天线装配的工作。In summary, the problems existing in the prior art are: spectrum resources are becoming increasingly scarce, and it is necessary to design antennas that work in the millimeter wave frequency band, while ensuring the processing accuracy of the antenna and the antenna's good performance such as wide bandwidth, high gain, low side lobes, and wide-angle beam scanning. It is also necessary to implement a simpler integrated antenna array preparation process to eliminate the work of subsequent antenna assembly.
