Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an antenna which is particularly adapted for radiating near or at the third resonance.
  • the antenna comprises a reflector means, e.g. a reflector plate.
  • Printed dipole antennas with reflector plates are e.g. described in the US-patent no. 3587110, which discloses the idea of printed antenna structures over a reflector plane.
  • the described dipoles radiate in first resonance.
  • Fig. 1 an example for a known dipole antenna comprising two antenna elements is shown on the left side of the figure whereas the real and the imaginary part of the impedance of this dipole antenna is shown on the right side of the figure.
  • the two dipole elements 1, 2 have an oblong shape and are arranged opposite to each other. In other words, the two antenna elements 1 and 2 are positioned on the same longitudinal axis in the same plane. The antenna elements 1 and 2 are fed at their respective ends, which are close to each other.
  • Dipole antennas printed on a dielectric substrate with a reflection plate being arranged at a certain distance to said dielectric substrate have a number of advantages over conventional microstrip patch antennas. The main advantages are the wider bandwidth, lower loss and less parasitic radiation of the feeding or transmission lines.
  • the distance between the reflection plate and the dielectric substrate is advantageously set to ⁇ /4, whereby ⁇ is the electric wave length of the central frequency within the material between the reflector plate and the dielectric substrate.
  • dipole antennas radiating at the first resonance with an impedance near 50 Ohms have been used, as well as dipole antennas radiating at the second resonance, the impedances of which are of a magnitude of several hundred Ohms for a parallel connection in antenna arrays.
  • the gain of dipole antennas radiating at the first resonance with a reflector plate arranged at a distance of ⁇ /4 is about 7.5 dB and the gain of dipole antennas radiating at the second resonance is about 8 dB.
  • dipole antennas radiating on the third resonance due to their comparatively high electrical wavelength, have a gain of around 10 dB.
  • VSWR high voltage standing wave ratio
  • the imaginary part Im[Z] of the impedance Z has a negative value, i.e. it has a capacitance character. It becomes clear from Fig. 1 that in this case the input impedance is not ideal.
  • WO 88/09065 discloses a device for receiving and/or transmitting electromagnetic signals in a broad frequency range from 33 MHz to 1042 MHz which is formed by a planar element having an array of constituent planar plates arranged in a configuration such that the planar element is symmetrical about at least one axis with each of the plate members being connected either indirectly or directly to, or continuous with, the other plate members.
  • One significant feature of the respective planar antenna element is an enlarged capture and transmission area for electromagnetic waves on the front and rear faces of the plates.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide an antenna radiating at the third resonance, the impedance of which can be matched easily to the impedance of the feeding system.
  • an antenna according to claim 1 with a first antenna element comprising a first and a second oblong portion arranged parallel and with a distance to each other, a transverse portion connecting said first and said second oblong portion at a distance from a feeding side end of said first and second oblong portion and a feeding portion extending parallel to and between said first and said second oblong portion for connecting said transverse portion with a transmission line, and a reflector means spaced to and parallel with a common plane of said first and said second oblong portion.
  • the antenna according to the present invention is adopted to radiate at the third resonance, which means a larger gain compared to conventional antennas radiating at at the first and the second resonance is provided. Simultaneously, the antenna according to the present invention has good matching capabilities. In other words, the antenna according to the present invention can easily be shaped to have an impedance close to the impedance of the feeding system, e. g. 50 Ohms. A further advantage of the antenna according to the present invention is the measured working band width of 10 % for a VSWR smaller than 2.
  • the antenna according to the present invention when used as a dipole antenna, can be readily adapted for being arranged in antenna arrays, when a band width of 40-50 degrees in the E-plane is needed as well as in phase scanned arrays and smart antennas.

  • said second antenna element is positioned on the same longitudinal axis and in the same plane as said first antenna element.
  • a transverse portion connects said first and second oblong portion at a distance from a feeding side end of said first and second oblong portion and a feeding portion extends parallel to and between said first and said second oblong portion for connecting said transverse portion with a transmission line.

  • the reflector means advantageously is a reflector plate consisting of a metal material.
