Definitions
- the present invention relates to a primary source to at least two-way, so-called monopulse, compact for an optical antenna focusing, for example Cassegrain type or lens, connected to a circuit microwave transmission and reception made for example in microstrip technology. It applies in particular to radars millimeters equipping motor vehicles. More generally, she applies to millimeter radars requiring a high level integration and a low cost of implementation.
- a so-called monopulse source has for example two paths and simultaneously generates two radiation patterns, a diagram sum and a difference diagram.
- This source must present compatible radio characteristics of adaptation performance and radiation of a complete focusing antenna. These features particularly the adaptation frequency band, the formation of the diagram of the difference path in the plane of the electric field E and the openings and the relative level of channel radiation patterns sum and difference.
- a solution for realizing a primary source satisfying some previous criteria is to use an excited pyramidal horn by a magic tee folded in the plane of the electric field E. Next access used, this magic tee allows to generate in the cornet the transverse mode electric TE01, even mode, or TM11 magnetic transverse mode, mode odd, respectively forming the sum and difference diagrams.
- this solution has a deep space requirement important and requires, for its realization, the manufacture and assembly of several pieces of high precision leading to the use of methods expensive machining processes such as wire electro-erosion or electroforming.
- Another solution is to make a printed source on the same substrate as the microwave transmission circuit.
- this source must consist of a network of radiating elements of "Patch” fed for example by a hybrid ring.
- This solution has the advantage of not requiring any mechanical parts and have a minimum footprint in depth but does not meet the requirements of requirements for electromagnetic shielding and protection against environmental constraints for the components of the transmission and microwave reception.
- the radiating elements of "Patch” have a frequency selective operation and are therefore very sensitive to the characteristics of the substrate such as in particular its dielectric constant or its thickness, as well as etching tolerances.
- the object of the invention is to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks and allow in particular to achieve a source meeting the criteria outlined previously.
- the subject of the invention is a monopulse source antenna for focusing optics, as defined by claim 1.
- the main advantages of the invention are that it also applies well to an antenna with folded optics that a direct optics antenna, that it allows an access of the source by a microstrip line, that it allows to modify the directivity of the radiation patterns in the plane magnetic H and in the electrical plane E, it allows low leakage radio, that it allows to dispose the active components of the circuit transmission and reception near the source, that it is simple to implement and is economical.
- FIG. 1a shows an example of an antenna with folded optics powered by a primary source 1 called monopulse, that is to say a source two-way, a sum channel ⁇ and a difference channel ⁇ .
- the antenna comprises in particular a main reflector 2, for example of the type parabolic, and a subreflector 3.
- the primary source 1 is arranged behind the main reflector 2 and radiates through a hole 4 made in this last.
- the subreflector 3 is arranged opposite the source primary 1.
- the rays 5 emitted from the primary source 1 are reflected on the subreflector 3 and then on the main reflector 2. After reflection on the latter, the radii 5 'are emitted in parallel at the antenna output.
- the invention applies for a folded optical antenna, but it can also be applied for example for a direct optical antenna as shown in Figure 1b.
- the latter includes dielectric lens 11 which focuses to infinity the rays 5 emitted by the source 4.
- FIG. 2 shows an exemplary embodiment according to the art prior.
- Primary source 1 uses a rectangular waveguide 26 prolonged by a pyramidal cone 27.
- the sum and difference paths of a tee magic 28 are fed through guide-microstrip transitions 21, 22.
- Transmitting and receiving circuits 23, in technology microstrip, are in turn implanted on a dielectric substrate 24, itself for example disposed on a metal sole 25.
- the waveguide is excited by the magic tee 28 folded in the plane of the electric field E.
- this magic tee can generate in the cornet the TE10 transverse electric mode, even mode, or transverse mode Magnetic TM11, odd mode, respectively forming the diagrams of radiation sum and difference.
- the access of the way difference of the tee magic can be obtained, via an elbow made in the plane of the field electric E, in the same plane as the access of the way sum.
- This source can then be connected to the transmission and reception circuit 23 by via two microstrip-guide transitions 21, 22.
- This solution unfortunately has a large footprint in depth, the order for example of 35 mm in millimetric band, and requires, as previously mentioned, the manufacture and assembly of several pieces of high precision, such as for example a magic tee 28 and transitions microstrip-guide 21, 22, which leads to the use of machining methods expensive. These methods are, for example, wire EDM or electro-forming.
- FIG. 3 shows another known example of embodiment.
- the source is printed on the same substrate as the transmission and reception. It comprises in particular a hybrid ring 31 balanced type 4 ⁇ / 4 and a network of two pairs of elements or "patches" 32, 33.
- the ring 31 feeds the radiating elements by two outputs 34, 35 one of which is elongated by a quarter wavelength ⁇ / 4 relative to each other so as to feed in phase or opposition of phase the two pairs of radiating elements 32, 33 according to the input 36, 37 of the ring that is excited.
- the radiation pattern of the sum track is thus formed when the two pairs are excited in phase and the radiation pattern of the difference way is thus formed when the two pairs are excited in phase opposition.
- this embodiment has the advantage of not require no mechanical parts and present a clutter minimal in depth but it does not meet the shielding requirements electromagnetic and protective vis-à-vis the environmental constraints for the components of the microwave transmission and reception circuit.
- the radiating "patches" 32, 33 exhibit an operation selective in frequency and are therefore very sensitive to the characteristics of the substrate such as in particular its dielectric constant or its thickness as well as engraving tolerances.
- FIGS. 4, 5 and 6 show an exemplary embodiment possible of a primary source according to the invention.
- This source has two radiating waveguides 41, 42 machined in the metal sole 25 supporting the microwave transmission and reception circuit of the antenna, this circuit being for example in microstrip technology and / or MMIC according to the Anglo-Saxon expression "Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit".
- the transmission and reception circuit is for example arranged on a substrate dielectric 24, itself mounted on the metal soleplate 25.

- the long side of the waveguides 41, 42 is for example sized for allow the propagation of the transverse electric mode TE01 and to obtain in the magnetic plane H, the desired directivity of the radiated diagram in sum way.
- the distance between the two waveguides 41, 42 is example determined to obtain in the plane of the electric field E, the desired directivity of the diagram radiated in sum channel.
- the ground plane metal of the microstrip circuit is removed at right of the two waveguides 41, 42 so as to let the radiation. Etching 60, 61 of the ground plane on the substrate dielectric then bypasses the end of the guides.
- Each waveguide is for example excited by a transition 44, 45 with the transmission circuit and reception, for example in microstrip technology, the transition being constituted for example by an engraved pattern 44, 45 on the same substrate as the one supporting the microstrip circuit, and by a short circuit microwave 43 closing the waveguide.
- the significant mismatch of the radiating mouth 46 of each guide 41, 42 is compensated by a section change placed at a given distance from this mouthpiece, each waveguide extending into a waveguide reduced 47, 48 from this section change.
- Section reduction is for example performed on the long side of the guide, in a factor of two for example.
- Each transition 44, 45 with the microstrip circuit is positioned in the section change plan.
- a transition 44, 45 is adapted by the microwave short-circuit 43 closing the waveguide reduced 47, 48 and placed at a distance substantially equal to a quarter of the wavelength ⁇ / 4 of the signal transmitted by the microstrip circuit.
- Each transition 44, 45 is for example powered by a microstrip line 49, 50 passing under a tunnel 51, 52 made in the wall of the reduced waveguide.
- Each transition 44, 45 is then for example connected to a hybrid ring 53 of the type 4 ⁇ / 4 of which one of the outputs 55 is extended by a quarter of wavelength ⁇ / 4 with respect to the other 54.
- These links 49, 54, 50, 55 allow to feed in phase or in phase opposition the two radiating elements according to the inlet 56, 57 of the ring 53 which is excited and thus make it possible to form the diagrams of the sum and difference channels, the difference diagram being for example obtained in the plane of the field E.
- the two inputs 56, 57 of the hybrid ring are connected to the remainder of the transmission and reception circuit 23.
- Each radiating element aforementioned is in fact constituted by a mouth 46 of waveguide and a transition 44, 45 with the microstrip circuit. Active components of the circuit transmission and reception may be placed near the source, this which allows in particular to limit the microwave losses.
- the protection of the transmission and reception circuit microwave against parasitic electromagnetic radiation outside the operating band of the radar is ensured by the presence of waveguides that act as a high-pass filter.
- the section of the waveguides 41, 42, 47, 48 is for example oblong instead of being rectangular, this notably avoids the use of expensive machining methods such as wire electro-erosion.
- the oblong sections can, they simply be realized by a means economical machining such as milling.
- the architecture of a source according to the invention allows it to present a wide band passing through, in particular through the use of a non-excitation element selective, making the manufacturing tolerances of the parts less sensitive mechanical and microstrip circuits, and thus further contributes to reducing manufacturing costs.

- metallized holes can be made in the dielectric substrate giving for example on the periphery of the guides 41, 42 machined in the metal sole 25.
- the metal soleplate 25 in which the radiating guides 41, 42 are made may for example be an integral part of the housing containing the transmit and receive circuit, which makes the realization even more compact and also reduces the number of workpieces.
- Figures 7a and 7b show a possible embodiment of a primary source according to the invention for obtaining a diagram of particular radiation of the sum and / or the difference of the source, for example to get a better adaptation to the characteristics of focusing optics.
- false slots 71, 72 are added to the vicinity of the waveguides 41, 42 machined in the metal soleplate 25. These false slots 71, 72 are holes that do not completely cross the sole 25. These false slots, which have for example the same section transversal waveguides, are actually traps that are excited by coupling thanks to the proximity of the waveguides. The energy captured by coupling with these waveguides 41, 42 is radiated.
- This surface 73, as well as the false slots 71, 72 are for example obtained during of the same machining operation as the waveguides 41, 42 of the soleplate 25.

- This source is then by example obtained by combining four radiating elements powered by four hybrid rings, each radiating element being for example consisting of a waveguide mouth 46 and a transition with the microstrip circuit as previously described.
- the invention can also be applied for the realization a primary source illuminating a multi-beam antenna.
- This source is for example formed by several radiating elements, such as those mentioned above, placed in the focal plane of a type reflector system Cassegrain or in the focal plane of a dielectric lens, each element beam generating a beam whose inclination depends on the position of the elementary source with respect to the focus.
- the invention allows a very good protection circuits against environmental constraints, such as for example moisture or corrosion, partially or completely filling guides radiating by a dielectric material.
- environmental constraints such as for example moisture or corrosion
- Such protection is particularly advantageous for radars equipping automobiles and which are likely to suffer the aforementioned constraints.
