Description
29−25logθdBi(θ:離角〔度〕)
アンテナのサイドローブレベルを下げる方法は、これまでも多く報告されているが、一般的にアンテナの開口分布(主に振幅分布)にテーパをつける方法で実現できることが知られている。
・導波管の先端から突出させてその突出部を先細テーパ形状にしたもの。
・誘電体の先端中心を導波管の軸心の延長上から外れた位置に配置して誘電体の先端側を非回転対称形状にしたもの。
・誘電体の導波管前方への突出部の外周の一部を導波管の断面(軸直角断面)に交差する方向の面に沿って除去したもの。
・誘電体の導波管前方への突出部のアンテナ素子配列方向寸法をその突出部の断面を含む平面内においてアンテナ素子配列方向と直角方向の寸法よりも小さくしたもの。
・誘電体の導波管からの突出部の先端をカットして誘電体の先端を平面又はR面にしたもの。
誘電体6の突出部を錐状にしたときの頂点は、図10(d)に示すように錐の底面の中心軸上から外れた位置に配置されていてもよい。このように、誘電体6の突出部を非回転対称形状したアンテナ素子3は、2個のアンテナ素子を近接して配置するアンテナ装置に有効に使用できる。即ち、2個のアンテナ素子を近接して配置するとカップリング現象が起こって各アンテナ素子で捕捉した電波が歪む。その歪を誘電体6の突出部先端を図11に示すように互いに離反する方法に偏在させることによって小さくすることができる。
1)0.8λ(λ:波長、例えば、周波数12.5GHzの場合、約25mm)以下のサ イズである。
2)半値幅について例えば50度程度が実現できる。
3)垂直V、水平Hの両直線偏波共用のため直線偏波アンテナである(この条件を満足す れば円偏波アンテナにも適用可能)。
4)E面、H面(図3(b)参照)の指向性パターンを極力同じにできる。
