Therefore, conventionally, resins such as polytetrafluoroethylene, polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyisobutylene, and polymethylpentene-1, which have a relatively small ε1, have been used as dielectric materials, or they have been given thermal and mechanical reinforcement effects. To achieve this, glass fibers may be embedded and crosslinked (for example, JP-A-60-253528), quartz glass fibers may be used as glass fibers (JP-A-59-10'9347), epoxy resins, etc. A method of mixing glass bubbles (microscopic hollow spheres) into a dielectric layer has been proposed (Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 167394/1983). Generally, glass fiber is composited with polyethylene or polytetrafluoroethylene, and copper is coated on both sides. A substrate made of laminated foil is commonly used as a high frequency substrate. However, these conventional devices have a problem in that transmission loss is large.

Also Nikkei Electronics No. 0.347 145-1
As introduced on page 60 (1984, Nikkei McGraw-Hill Publishing), a flat antenna for receiving microwaves such as satellite broadcasting has a large number of resonators placed on a conductor on one side of a dielectric material to receive radio wave power. However, a method is known in which these signals are aligned using a microstrip line, collected at one or several locations, and guided to a converter, tuner, etc. using a coaxial cable or the like. However, with this method, when high-frequency power flows through the conductor of the dielectric substrate, there is large attenuation due to skin resistance, etc., and the loss (
There is a problem in that the transmission loss (transmission loss) becomes large. As a means to solve this problem, for example, the length of the stripline is shortened by dividing the aperture of the planar antenna into several sections, and the radio wave power from the resonator is concentrated in the center of these sections, thereby creating a conductor with low transmission loss. One possible method is to connect these sections using wave tubes or coaxial cables, but this method has the disadvantage that the connection between the strip line and the waveguide or coaxial cable becomes complicated and requires a large number of steps. As another method, it is considered desirable to arrange a large number of resonators on a board, connect them with a microstrip knob line, concentrate them in one place, and connect them to a coaxial cable, but in this case, the microstrip line The board must have low transmission loss.

In other words, since satellite broadcasting radio waves cannot be made to have as much power as terrestrial broadcasting radio waves in the VHF and UHF bands, and are weak, a board with significantly lower transmission loss is required to increase antenna gain. is the current situation.

Therefore, in order to prevent this warping and ensure parallelism of the board surface, conventionally, a conductor, dielectric, and ground conductor are laminated, and after the board is fabricated, a reinforcing plate is laminated from the ground conductor side, and the case is screwed. Alternatively, a method of fixing by fitting is adopted.

As this reinforcing plate, there is a method of using a general-purpose metal plate such as iron, silicon steel, aluminum, or stainless steel, or using a metal plate as a grounding conductor to give the grounding conductor the effect of a reinforcing plate. There are problems in that transmission loss increases due to the electrical resistance of the metal, the planar antenna becomes heavy, and the case and mounting jig must be made stronger. Another method is to use an insulator such as plastic as a reinforcing plate, but in this case, the shield conductor and ground conductor of the waveguide or coaxial cable used for the principle of the antenna and for fixing the mode to be used. There is a problem in that it is difficult to connect to the Furthermore, as a reinforcing material for this planar antenna, Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 59-61203 and Japanese Utility Model Application No. 59-76118 disclose a reinforced plastic plate made of a honeycomb sandwich structure made by impregnating carbon fiber into resin and hardening it. indicated for use. However, these use expensive carbon fiber,
Since it requires many manufacturing processes and is expensive, it is useful as a special antenna such as a large antenna for satellite broadcasting itself and relay, but it is used for consumer and home reception to receive radio waves from satellite broadcasting. There were problems such as being too expensive and unsuitable as an antenna.

is connected to the ground conductor on the outer surface of the other board through the ground conductor formed on the surface of the through hole 5, so if the coaxial cable or waveguide is connected to an appropriate part of the ground conductor 6 on the outer surface.

The metal plates used in the present invention include carbon mesh, cast iron, cast steel, stainless steel, copper, copper alloys (brass, phosphor bronze, nickel silver, aluminum bronze), zinc alloys, silicon steel, aluminum, aluminum alloy plates, etc. can be mentioned. Among these, forming a ground conductor on a copper plate is usually not necessary, but in the case of a copper plate or phosphor-deoxidized copper, it is effective to form a ground conductor with silver.

The reason why a through hole with a diameter of 3 fins or less is provided in a metal plate is to prevent the part corresponding to the through hole part of the board, which is formed by laminating and integrally forming a dielectric and a conductor, from being dented. If it is too large, it will cause a dent in the board. The through holes can be made by drilling, punching, etc., and the number of through holes is preferably two or more from the viewpoint of reliability. The metal plate may be drawn using a press or the like to form ribs or the like to form a reinforcing structure. By doing so, the thickness of the metal plate can be reduced and the weight can be reduced. Additionally, holes and screws may be processed to facilitate attachment to the housing. Furthermore, by forming the product three-dimensionally, it becomes easy to store and attach related parts such as a converter, and it can be used as part of a housing.

A ground conductor made of copper or silver may be formed on a metal plate by a commonly used method, such as electroless plating, electroplating, sputtering, electron beam evaporation, resistance heating evaporation, etc. can be mentioned. Since the high frequency current flows through the surface layer of the conductor, the thickness of the ground conductor to be formed only needs to be several μm, and it is desirable that the metal plate and the ground conductor to be formed are smooth.

The conductors (1, 2) are preferably conductors with low electrical resistance, such as gold, silver, copper, aluminum, nickel, etc.
Silver and copper, which have lower electrical resistance, are preferred from the viewpoint of reducing transmission loss, and copper is particularly preferred from the viewpoint of cost.

The conductor is preferably a metal foil with smooth surfaces on both sides, particularly a copper foil with smooth surfaces on both sides, and among them, for example, rolled copper foil or oxygen-free copper foil is preferable.

Furthermore, since high-frequency current flows through the surface layer of the conductor, it is sufficient that the ground conductor has a thickness of several micrometers; if it is too thick, it will easily warp, so it is desirable to adjust the thickness to an appropriate value.

The dielectric 4 may be polytetrafluoroethylene, which is often used in high-frequency substrates, or polyethylene in which glass fibers are embedded, and other resins such as polyolefin and polystyrene can also be suitably used. Among these, in order to reduce transmission loss, it is desirable to use a resin with as small values of ε1 and tan δ as possible. Particularly preferable examples include sintering of foamed polyolefin foam or polyolefin powder containing gases with small ε and tan δ. Examples include the body. By adopting such a configuration, not only the values of ε and tan δ become smaller, thereby reducing the transmission loss, but also the elastic modulus of the dielectric material becomes lower, which significantly improves the warping prevention effect. Since the wall thickness of the plastic molded product can be reduced, the weight can be reduced, and it is also advantageous in terms of cost.

This is because it is effective in preventing the etching solution from seeping into the dielectric material when etching the conductor. If the adhesive layer contains a large number of polar groups in its structure, ε and tan δ may become high. In such cases, it is desirable to minimize the thickness of the adhesive layer.・

The high frequency antenna board of the present invention uses a metal plate provided with a through hole, and a metal plate with a ground conductor having a specific structure in which a copper or silver ground conductor is formed on the surface of the metal plate including the through hole, Since the dielectric material and the conductor are integrated into a laminated structure, it is possible to prevent the board from warping after forming the circuit pattern on the conductor by reinforcing the metal plate. In this connection, the ground conductor adjacent to the dielectric is connected to the other ground conductor through the ground conductor formed on the through hole in the plastic molded product, so it is difficult to connect the shield conductor of the coaxial cable or the waveguide. The conductive part of the casing and the ground conductor can be easily connected.
Work efficiency is significantly improved. Furthermore, since a conductor with low electrical resistance is used for the grounding conductor, transmission loss is reduced, and if foamed polyolefin foam or sintered polyolefin powder with small ε1 and tanδ is used as the dielectric, it is even more effective. Transmission loss can be significantly reduced.

As shown in Table 1 below, in Example 1, a through hole was provided in a metal plate, a ground conductor was formed on the surface of the metal plate, and a dielectric and a conductor were laminated and integrally molded. By using a metal plate, warping after etching can be prevented. In Comparative Examples 3 and 4, the amount of warpage was zero before etching, but one copper foil of the double-sided copper-clad laminate was used as a ground conductor, a masking film was attached to this, and the other conductor was When the entire surface was etched away with the assumption that a circuit pattern would be formed on it, the amount of warpage in Comparative Example 4 was as large as 8fi, even though 10% glass fiber was mixed in and reinforced. In Comparative Example 3, the board curled into a scroll shape and the amount of warpage could not be measured.O Transmission loss, which is an important characteristic of antenna boards, is caused by the conductor (copper foil).
Even though they are the same, they are affected by the ground conductor,
The transmission loss was extremely low when using the ground conductor obtained by forming copper on the metal plate of the present invention, and when only the metal plates of Comparative Examples 1 and 2 were used, the transmission loss was high. In addition, transmission loss can be reduced by using a form with low ε1.
It has decreased significantly. In addition, the influence of the dent in the substrate due to the through hole is that when the diameter of the through hole is 3 m or less (Example 1 and Comparative Example 2), there is no dent and there is no effect, but when the diameter of the through hole is 5 m (
Comparative Example 1) caused dents.
