Definitions

  • the invention relates to an antenna for receiving circularly in a direction of rotation of the polarization of radiated satellite radio signals
  • Satellite radio signals are transmitted due to polarization rotations in the transmission path usually with circularly polarized electromagnetic waves.
  • program contents are transmitted, for example, in frequency bands closely adjacent to each other separated frequency bands, as in FIG. 1 is shown. This is done in the example of SDARS satellite broadcasting at a frequency of about 2.33 GHz in two adjacent frequency bands each with a bandwidth of 4 MHz with a spacing of the center frequencies of 8 MHz.
  • the signals are emitted by different satellites with a circularly polarized in one direction electromagnetic wave.
  • circularly polarized antennas are used to receive in the corresponding direction of rotation.
  • Such antennas are for example off DE-A-4008505 and DE-A-10163793 known.
  • This satellite broadcasting system is additionally supported by the regional emission of terrestrial signals in another, arranged between the two satellite signals frequency band of the same bandwidth. Similar satellite broadcasting systems are currently being planned.
  • the from the DE-A-4008505 known antenna is constructed on a substantially horizontally oriented conductive base and consists of crossed horizontal dipoles with V-shaped downwardly inclined, consisting of linear ladder parts Dipolhhann which are mechanically fixed at an azimuthal angle of 90 degrees to each other and at the top of a on the conductive base surface mounted linear vertical conductor are mounted.
  • the from the DE-A-10163793 known antenna is also constructed on a generally horizontally oriented conductive base and consists of crossed azimuthally mounted at 90 ° to each other frame structures. In both antennas, the mutually spatially offset by 90 ° antenna parts in the electrical phase are interconnected shifted by 90 ° to each other to generate the circular polarization.
  • Both types of antennas are particularly suitable for the reception of satellite signals emitted by high-flying satellites - so-called HEOS.
  • the signals of geostationary satellites - known as GEOS - are incident at lower elevation angles in regions remote from the equatorial zones.
  • the reception of such signals is possible with the two antenna types mentioned only with comparatively small antenna gain and therefore problematic due to the - due to economic reasons - weak transmitter power of the satellites. Added to this is the difficulty of designing antennas with a smaller height, which is imperative especially for mobile applications.
  • As further antennas of this type are known in the prior art patch antennas, which are also less efficient in terms of the reception at a low elevation angle.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide an antenna with a low profile, which is particularly suitable for the powerful reception of incident at low elevation angles circularly polarized in one direction of rotation emitted satellite signals.
  • an antenna of this type is advantageously combined in a common space with antenna structures, which also receive a circularly polarized field and which together with these antenna structures in an antenna diversity system or a system for digital beam shaping Azimuthal beam swing can be used.
  • This combination is particularly interesting for receiving systems in which signals from GEO satellites and HEO satellites in closely adjacent frequency bands are to be received equally.
  • the antenna combination is characterized by a particularly low mutual coupling of the antennas with each other.
  • the antenna for receiving circularly polarized satellite radio signals comprises at least two emitters connected to an antenna connector 28, each linearly polarized in a spatial direction and connected via a matching and phase shifter network 25, 31, and is characterized in that one of the emitters is formed as a loop antenna 14 substantially arranged in a horizontal plane conductor loop and the loop antenna 14 for their electrically effective shortening at least one bridged by a capacitor 16 interruption 5, in particular a plurality of spaced apart, bridged by capacitances 16 interruptions. At least one interruption 5 of the conductor loop forms a loop antenna connection point 3 of the loop antenna 14.
  • At least one further radiator 7 is present, which has a linear polarization and with its radiator junction 2 and with the loop antenna connection point 3 via a matching and phase shifting network 25, 23 is connected, which is so formed that, in reciprocal operation of the antenna as transmitting antenna, the radiation fields of the loop antenna 14 and the at least one further radiator 7 are superimposed in the far field of the antenna with different phases.
  • This at least one of the further radiators 7 has a polarization oriented perpendicular to the polarization of the loop antenna 14. All radiators are essentially formed of slender wire-like conductors similar ladder structures.
  • antennas which from the DE-A-4008505 and the DE-A-10163793 Problems arise from the fact that the individual antenna parts are placed on crossed at a right angle planes and these levels in addition to the conductive ground plane stand vertically.
  • Such antennas can not be produced sufficiently economically, as desired, for example, for use in the automotive industry. This applies in particular to the frequencies of several gigahertz common in satellite antennas, for which a particularly high mechanical accuracy is necessary in the interest of polarization R unit, the impedance matching and the reproducibility of the directional diagram in the series production of the antennas.
  • the required in antennas according to the present invention manufacturing tolerances can be maintained in an advantageous manner much easier.
  • Another very important advantage of the present invention results from the property that in addition to the horizontally polarized loop antenna 14 at least one further radiator 7 is present, which has a polarization oriented perpendicular to the polarization of the loop antenna 14. In the presence of terrestrially vertically polarized signals, this emitter can advantageously also be used to receive these signals.
  • the distribution of the currents on an antenna in receive mode depends on the terminator at the antenna junction.
  • the distribution of the currents on the antenna conductors relative to the supply current at the antenna connection point is independent of the source resistance of the supplying signal source and is thus clearly linked to the directional diagram and the polarization of the antenna.
  • the object of the invention with respect to polarization and radiation patterns on the basis of the design of the antenna structure for generating corresponding currents in the transmission mode of Antenna solved.
  • the object of the invention for the receiving operation is solved. All considerations made below about currents on the antenna structure and their phases or their phase reference point thus refer to the reciprocal operation of the receiving antenna as a transmitting antenna, unless the receiving mode is specifically addressed.
  • the object of the invention is directed to a receiving antenna, the properties of the antenna are described below for better traceability for the reciprocal operation of the antenna as a transmitting antenna, the transmission case but also applies to the directional diagrams of the receiving case due to the naturally valid reciprocity relationship.

The antenna acts as a loop antenna with dimensions in the range of the wavelength, wherein nevertheless a homogeneous current distribution is achieved by dividing the structure and inserting capacitances 16 according to the invention. As a result, the length of the antenna is electrically shortened and creates a homogeneous, horizontally polarized electromagnetic field all around.
  • the loop antenna 14 is arranged at a constant height h above the conductive base 6. The main vertical beam direction can be adjusted by selecting the height h and the radius of the loop antenna 14. It can be achieved a zero point in the vertical direction and in the horizontal direction.
  • the conductor impedance of the circulating line over the conductive base 6 is Zw.
  • resonance can be set for the loop antenna 14, so that the antenna impedance occurring at the loop antenna connection point 3 can be made substantially real.
