摘要： One embodiment relates to a coupler that can be used in a radar system. The coupler includes differential ports, an antenna port, a receiver port, a local port and a transmission path. The differential ports are configured to receive a differential signal. The antenna port is configured to output a transmitted signal and to input a received signal. The transmitted signal is derived from the differential signal. The receiver port is configured to output a portion or version of the received signal. The local port outputs a local signal, which is also derived from the differential signal. The transmission path is coupled to the differential ports, the antenna port, the receiver port and the local port. The transmission path typically has a length selected to derive or output the signals at the above ports.

摘要： An electrically steerable phased array antenna system includes an array of antenna elements and a corporate feed network having an inner region for input of two input signals A and B. The corporate feed network has two outer regions and generating vector combinations of respective input signals and other input signal fractions. Each outer region has a splitting and combining network providing the vector combinations as signals to antenna elements connected predominantly peripherally to itself. Each splitting and combining network has input signal connections from the inner region disposed peripherally of the corporate feed network. Each consists of splitters and adding/subtracting elements implemented as hybrid couplers some of which have re-entrant or meandered track sections. Hybrid meandered track sections have multiple widths for signal weighting. The corporate feed network is configured to avoid track cross-overs.

摘要： An antenna includes first, second and third waveguides in direct communication with a base waveguide at first, second and third positions, respectively, the base waveguide forming a continuous loop. The second position, at which the second waveguide is in direct communication with the base waveguide, is spaced apart from the first position by about one-sixth the circumference of the loop. The third position, at which the third waveguide is in direct communication with the base waveguide, is spaced apart from the first position by about one-sixth the circumference of the loop, and is uninterruptedly spaced apart from the second position, without extending through the first position, by about two-thirds the circumference of the loop. The first, second and third waveguides comprise closed-channel waveguides, and the second and third waveguides have an open end and are configured to radiate electromagnetic waves and/or focus radiating electromagnetic waves.

摘要： The invention relates to a helix antenna with integrated duplexing means comprising two decoupled coaxial helices, each formed by radiating strands (111 to 114) printed on a substrate, each of the helices being associated with an independent and miniaturized structure (12, 13, 14) for the wideband supply of the radiating strands, the supply structures being printed on the corresponding substrate and comprising at least one hybrid coupler (12, 13, 14) made out of semi-localized elements so as to reduce the dimensions thereof. Advantageously, the helices are wound in opposite directions of winding (17) and their points of excitation are offset with respect to each other, in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the helices. Corresponding methods of manufacture are used to form the helix antenna.
