摘要:
An antenna system includes a reflector and a primary and a subsidiary array antenna which are disposed in front of an aperture of the reflector so as to be positioned back-to-back with each other. An electric power which is supplied to the primary array antenna is also partly supplied to the subsidiary array antenna after it has been controlled in both phase and amplitude in order that a radiant beam from the subsidiary array antenna compensates for that portion of a secondary radiant beam from the reflector which is blocked by the primary array antenna. For example, a transmission source is connected to the primary array antenna through a coupler and a distributor while the coupler is connected to the subsidiary array antenna through a phase and an amplitude regulator and a distributor. The source may also be connected via the distributor to the primary array antenna formed of a plurality of radiating elements which are respectively connected to corresponding radiating elements of the subsidiary array antenna through couplers and delay lines or feeder lines.

Disclosed is an antenna system having a first antenna directed to receive a desired signal wave and a second antenna directed to receive only an interference signal wave superposed on the desired signal wave. Both signals received by the first and second antennas are combined and the amplitude and phase shift necessary for the second antenna signal to cancel the interference signal component existing in the first antenna signal is calculated from the combined signal. By combining the controlled second antenna signal with the first antenna signal, the desired reception signal having an improved S/N ratio can be obtained.

There is provided a small-sized and simplified horizontally polarized antenna apparatus which forms an omnidirectional pattern in the horizontal plane. The radiation field in the horizontal plane becomes continuous and a horizontally polarized omnidirectional radiation pattern can be obtained in the horizontal plane by forming radiation slots at opposing positions on a grounded hollow body and exciting the slots out of phase.

A positioner supports an antenna at an optional rotating angle and the mirror surface of the antenna at different rotating angles is measured. A computer expands the measured value into series using polar coordinates system associated with the measuring system, whereby the intrinsic deformation of the mirror surface under the zero-gravity condition and the deformation due to gravity are separately measured.

A method of and an apparatus for measuring the null angle in the difference vs. sum pattern and in the difference pattern of a monopulse antenna. The null angle of the monopulse antenna in the radiation pattern is acquired by transmitting an RF signal from a plurality of antenna elements to the monopulse antenna, acquiring the sum signal and difference signals in the directions of the respective antenna elements and acquiring the null angle in accordance with the sum and difference signals. The apparatus comprises a rotator for changing the direction of the monopulse antenna and a transmitting antenna facing the monopulse antenna for transmitting a test signal to the monopulse antenna.

Herein is revealed a helical antenna apparatus wherein the direction of beam radiation hardly changes even if the frequency in use changes. Two helical antennas which are wound with two conductive wires spirally, respectively, at equal intervals with a specified pitch .alpha. in the form of a cylinder are disposed along the length of the helical antennas so that the axes thereof substantially coincide with each other. By determining the lengths of the feeders of the respective helical antennas appropriately in order to set the phase of supplied power, it is possible to form the beam of signals radiated into space in the shape of conical beam having a directivity oriented obliquely upward. Additionally, it is possible to obtain the conical beam in which the direction of beam radiation does not change even if the frequency in use is changed.

An array antenna mounted on a spacecraft in its stowed state. After the spacecraft is launched in a predetermined position or on a predetermined orbit, the array antenna is extended to a flat plate form or a curved surface form. The array antenna has a structure that a plurality of subarrays are connected by plate springs or the like. The array antenna is extended in a kite form by using cables for connecting a spacecraft body and the subarrays or is extended by using an extension pole mounted on the spacecraft body. Each subarray includes a variable phase shifter to switch a shape and a direction of a directivity beam. A feeder line, a power supply line, a control signal line and the like connect the spacecraft body and each subarray.
摘要:
An antenna system for transmitting radio waves in the same direction as the direction of arrival of incoming radio waves. The arrival direction is detected by a fast Fourier transform processor. The transmitting direction is adjusted by phase-shifting radio waves from a feeder on the basis of the detected arrival direction. Further, signals in the system are transmitted through optical fibers in order to decrease the processing time.
