研究目的
To develop a novel circular-polarization (CP) ultra-wideband dielectric rod antenna design for operating from X to Ka band.
研究成果
The resultant CP dielectric rod antenna exhibited good simulated antenna performance within 10 to 40 GHz with a fairly stable gain of greater than 8 dBic, less than ±3 mm longitudinal phase center variation, less than 3 dB axial ratio, and 70%~80% radiation efficiency.
研究不足
The design requires careful tradeoff especially when the length of rod is to be kept minimal. The rotational symmetry of the main beam deteriorates above 30 GHz.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The design was based on the previous dual linear-polarization 3-layer dielectric rod design. A novel CP wave-launcher composed of conical spiral arms was developed.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The dimensions are scaled down by a factor of
3:45 for X to Ka band operation. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
The design utilizes a novel CP wave-launcher and a novel quadrifilar conducting enclosure.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The design principles and final antenna performance were discussed and demonstrated via full-wave simulation results obtained using ANSYS HFSS software.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The simulated antenna performance exhibits an axial ratio (AR) of less than 3 dB, stable gain, stable beamwidth, and stable phase center from 10 to 40 GHz.
