Wherein like elements in different embodiments are numbered with like associated elements. In the following description, numerous details are set forth in order to provide a better understanding of the present application. However, those skilled in the art will readily recognize that some of the features may be omitted or replaced with other elements, materials, methods in different instances. In some instances, certain operations related to the present application have not been shown or described in detail in order to avoid obscuring the core of the present application from excessive description, and it is not necessary for those skilled in the art to describe these operations in detail, so that they may be fully understood from the description in the specification and the general knowledge in the art.
Furthermore, the features, operations, or characteristics described in the specification may be combined in any suitable manner to form various embodiments. Also, the various steps or actions in the method descriptions may be transposed or transposed in order, as will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art. Thus, the various sequences in the specification and drawings are for the purpose of describing certain embodiments only and are not intended to imply a required sequence unless otherwise indicated where such sequence must be followed.
The numbering of the components as such, e.g., "first", "second", etc., is used herein only to distinguish the objects as described, and does not have any sequential or technical meaning. The term "connected" and "coupled" when used in this application, unless otherwise indicated, includes both direct and indirect connections (couplings).
In order to facilitate the understanding of the technical solutions of the present application, some technical data will be described herein.
The Axial Ratio of the antenna is defined as the Ratio of the major axis 2A to the minor axis 2B of an ellipse, which is the locus of the end point of the instantaneous electric field vector of an arbitrary polarized wave. The axial ratio is an important performance index of the circularly polarized antenna, the gain difference of the complete machine to signals in different directions can be measured, the gain difference represents the purity of circular polarization, and the bandwidth with the axial ratio not greater than 3dB is defined as the circularly polarized bandwidth of the antenna.
The standing wave ratio of an antenna, which is used to indicate whether the antenna and the radio wave transmitting station are matched, is usually a coefficient without a unit. If the value of the Standing Wave Ratio (SWR) is equal to 1, the electric wave transmitted to the antenna is transmitted completely without any reflection, which is the most ideal case; if the SWR value is larger than 1, it means that a part of the electric wave is reflected back and finally becomes heat, so that the temperature of the feeder line rises, and the reflected electric wave can generate quite high voltage at the output port of the transmitting station, possibly damaging the transmitting station.
Radio frequency lines, separable elements typically attached to cables or equipment for electrical connection of transmission line systems, and in particular, "transmission line systems" may refer to microwave transmission systems.
The radiator refers to a radiation device capable of emitting radiation with a required band width and a certain radiation power.
A polarizer, which is a device for controlling the polarization direction of an antenna feed system (in the case of an antenna radiating electromagnetic waves to the surrounding space), is a signal receiver, and is used to select a specific type of polarization pattern and suppress other types of polarization waves, so as to achieve polarization matching and optimal reception.
The upper and lower terms refer to the orientation terms of the drawings of the present application, such as upper surface, lower surface, upper cover, lower cover, upper and lower, etc., it should be understood by those skilled in the art that the references to "upper" and "lower" are used only for distinguishing the described objects, and do not have the orientation meaning of real space.
