Abstract

The invention discloses a quadrifilar helix antenna based on a multiple loading structure, which comprises a laminated cavity 1, a parasitic ring 2, a 'hat-shaped' parasitic structure 3, a double-layer feed network 4, a reflection floor 5 and a helix antenna component 6. The quadrifilar helix antenna is mounted at the very center of the platform 7. The laminated cavity 1 is the outermost layer of the quadrifilar helical antenna, and the helical antenna component 6, the parasitic ring 2 and the hat-shaped parasitic structure 3 are sequentially arranged in the laminated cavity 1. Because the coupling current generated on the surfaces of the parasitic circular ring 2 and the hat-shaped metal structure 3 guides part of the radiation energy to the wide-angle direction, the low elevation gain near the horizontal plane of the antenna is increased. The laminated cavity 1 chokes the coupling current excited by the helical antenna assembly at the surface of the platform 7, thereby attenuating the influence of the platform 7 on the broad beam radiation pattern of the quadrifilar helical antenna. The antenna can be used as a ground terminal antenna in a satellite-ground communication system.

Description

Quadrifilar helix antenna based on multiple loading structure
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of antennas, and further relates to a quadrifilar helical antenna based on a multiple loading structure in a helical antenna. The invention can be used as a ground terminal antenna in a satellite-ground communication system.
Background
The antenna is an important component in the satellite-ground communication system, and directly influences the performance of the whole system. Therefore, the research on the antenna applied to the satellite-ground communication system is very important. A ground-side antenna for satellite-to-ground communication needs to implement communication with ground-side equipment and satellite-side equipment. When the ground-end antenna communicates with ground-end equipment, the ground-end antenna mainly depends on a low-elevation signal close to the ground in vertical linear polarization, and the zenith signal is easy to receive and transmit but has little effect on communication with the ground-end equipment in satellite-ground communication. To improve the reliability of communications with terrestrial devices, antennas used for satellite-to-ground communications have high low elevation gain. Therefore, how to improve the low elevation gain of the ground-end antenna in satellite-ground communication when communicating with the ground-end device is the first technical problem to be solved urgently at present.
Meanwhile, in order to improve the reliability of the ground-side antenna in communication with the satellite, the ground-side antenna for satellite-ground communication should also have good circular polarization performance. Because the working environment of most antennas is a depolarization environment, the polarization mode of the antenna can be changed, and the circularly polarized antenna has the characteristics of being capable of receiving randomly polarized electromagnetic waves and receiving circularly polarized waves radiated by the randomly polarized antenna, and can effectively inhibit multipath effects and Faraday rotation effects generated in an ionosphere. The ground-side antenna for satellite-ground communication implements circular polarization in the form of a quadrifilar helical antenna, which can form a "heart-shaped" circular polarization wide beam pattern, but if installed on a large installation platform, the circular polarization radiation pattern of the antenna is distorted, for example: narrowing the beam width results in reduced low elevation gain, a depression in the pattern top, etc. Therefore, how to reduce the influence of a large installation platform on the radiation pattern of the ground-end antenna is a second technical problem which needs to be solved urgently at present.
In summary, as a ground-side antenna applied to satellite-ground communication, it is necessary to have a high linear polarization low elevation gain for communication with ground equipment and a wide-beam circularly polarized radiation pattern capable of adapting to a large installation platform when communicating with satellite equipment.
The patent document "a satellite-borne miniaturized dual-band quadrifilar helix antenna" (patent application No. 201910883603.3, application publication No. CN 110611162A) applied by the seian matrix radio technology ltd discloses a satellite-borne miniaturized dual-band quadrifilar helix antenna. The antenna uses a one-to-four feed network to form circular polarization for four rectangular radiation feeds, and the circular polarization gain at an elevation angle of +/-30 degrees is larger than 0dBi and the linear polarization gain is larger than-3 dBi by adjusting parameters such as the thread pitch, the number of turns and the like of the rectangular radiation arms of the four-arm spiral antenna. The antenna has the defects that the antenna gain has physical limit due to the limitation of the section height and the transverse size of the antenna only by adjusting parameters such as the screw pitch, the number of turns and the like of the rectangular radiation arm of the quadrifilar helical antenna, so that the mode cannot meet the gain requirement of the ground-end antenna at a low elevation angle in satellite-ground communication. Therefore, the antenna has the problem that the gain requirement of the ground-end antenna at a low elevation angle in satellite-ground communication is not met.
A dual-frequency quadrifilar helix antenna having a wide beam characteristic is disclosed in "a dual-frequency quadrifilar helix antenna having a wide beam characteristic" patent document filed by university of maritime affairs (patent application No. 201910563961.6, application publication No. CN 110247169 a). The antenna uses a one-to-four feed network to feed four double-strip spiral arms to realize circular polarization and double-band characteristics, and the top of the antenna adopts a bent radiation arm structure to obtain half-power beam width larger than 115 degrees. The antenna has the disadvantages that when the antenna is installed on a large installation platform, the installation platform is made of metal materials and is too large in size, so that the antenna can generate strong coupling current on the surface of the installation platform, an original radiation field is influenced by the large installation platform, an original wide-beam circularly polarized radiation directional diagram can generate distortion, the problems that the beam width of the wide-beam circularly polarized radiation directional diagram is narrowed, and the top of the wide-beam circularly polarized radiation directional diagram is sunken exist, so that the wide-beam circularly polarized radiation directional diagram of the antenna is greatly influenced by the large installation platform. Therefore, the wide-beam circularly polarized radiation pattern of the antenna has the problem of being greatly influenced by a large installation platform.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a quadrifilar helix antenna based on a multiple loading structure aiming at the defects of the prior art, and solves the problems that when the prior quadrifilar helix antenna is used as a ground end antenna, the gain at a low elevation angle cannot meet the requirement of communication with ground equipment, and the wide-beam circularly polarized radiation pattern of the prior quadrifilar helix antenna is greatly influenced by a large installation platform.
To achieve the above object, the idea of the present invention is to improve the gain of the antenna at low elevation angles by loading a parasitic ring and a "hat-shaped" parasitic structure around the helical antenna component. The parasitic circular ring and the vertical part of the hat-shaped metal structure can be regarded as a radiation director, and coupling current generated on the surface of the radiation director leads partial radiation energy to the wide-angle direction, so that the radiation energy distribution of the original wide-angle direction of the antenna is enhanced, the low elevation gain near the horizontal plane is increased, and the problem that the gain at the low elevation cannot meet the communication requirement with ground equipment when the existing four-arm spiral antenna is used as a ground-end antenna is solved. According to the invention, the laminated cavity is loaded below the helical antenna assembly, so that the laminated cavity restrains the coupling current excited by the helical antenna assembly on the surface of the large mounting platform, the radiation energy of the surface of the large mounting platform is reduced, and the influence of the large mounting platform on the wide-beam circularly polarized radiation directional diagram of the four-arm helical antenna is weakened. Therefore, the invention solves the problem that the wide-beam circularly polarized radiation directional diagram of the existing four-arm helical antenna is greatly influenced by a large installation platform.
In order to achieve the purpose, the antenna comprises a double-layer feed network, a reflection floor, a spiral antenna component and a multi-loading structure consisting of a laminated cavity, a parasitic circular ring and a hat-shaped parasitic structure; the four-arm helical antenna is arranged in the right center of the platform; the laminated cavity is the outermost layer of the four-arm helical antenna, and the metal column and the three layers of nested cavities are welded at the bottom of the laminated cavity from bottom to top in sequence; the parasitic ring is arranged between the helical antenna component and the hat-shaped parasitic structure; the hat-shaped parasitic structure arranged at the right center of the antenna is composed of a vertical ring part and a horizontal ring part which are printed on a cylindrical dielectric substrate.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following advantages:
first, due to the parasitic ring and the hat-shaped parasitic structure loaded by the antenna of the present invention, coupling currents are generated on the parasitic ring and the hat-shaped parasitic structure, so that part of the radiation energy is directed to the wide-angle direction, the radiation energy distribution in the original wide-angle direction of the antenna is enhanced, and the low elevation gain near the antenna horizontal plane is increased, thereby making up the defect that the gain of the far-field pattern of the antenna in the prior art is low at a low elevation angle, and solving the problem that the gain at the low elevation angle cannot meet the requirement of communication with ground equipment when the existing quadrifilar helix antenna is used as a ground-end antenna, so that the low elevation gain of the antenna near the horizontal plane is increased, and the requirement of low elevation gain when the ground-end antenna is communicated with the ground equipment in satellite-ground communication can be met.
Secondly, due to the laminated cavity loaded by the antenna, the laminated cavity restrains the coupling current excited by the helical antenna assembly on the surface of the large installation platform, reduces the radiation energy on the surface of the large installation platform, weakens the influence of the large installation platform on the wide beam radiation pattern of the four-arm helical antenna, and solves the problem that the wide beam radiation pattern of the existing four-arm helical antenna is greatly influenced by the large installation platform, so that the antenna can be suitable for the large installation platform and can meet the requirement of a ground end antenna in a satellite-ground communication system on the wide beam radiation pattern when the ground end antenna is installed on the large platform.
