A first sheet-like conductor (10) of a communication sheet (100) has a plurality of openings defined by a plurality of intersecting linear conductors (11). A second sheet-like conductor is a flat plate facing the first sheet-like conductor (10) with a gap therebetween. A wireless board (20) has a linear antenna that extends parallel to one linear conductor (11a) among the plurality of intersecting linear conductors (11).

A multi-beam former comprises: two stages connected together and intended to synthesize beams focused along two directions in space; each stage comprises at least two multi-layer plane structures, superposed one above the other; each multi-layer structure comprises an internal reflector, at least two first internal sources disposed in front of the internal reflector and linked to two input/output ports aligned along an axis, at least two second internal sources disposed in a focal plane of the internal reflector and linked to two second input/output ports aligned along an axis perpendicular to the axis; the two second internal sources of the same multi-layer structure of the first stage are respectively linked to two first internal sources of two different multi-layer structures of the second stage.
摘要:
In order to compensate for the displacement of a coherent pulse airborne radar, the latter is provided with means for alternately linearly moving forward and backward the phase centre of its antenna system, at the reception, from one cycle radar to the next.The displacement of the phase centre is carried out by introducing a controllable dissymmetry in the illumination of the linear radiating aperture of the antenna system.

A multilayer antenna is provided, which includes a power supply portion generating a wave, a radiating portion, and a guide portion that makes it possible to guide the wave from the power supply portion to the radiating portion. The guide portion includes: at least two stacked guide layers having parallel planes and, for each pair of adjacent layers, a transition between the adjacent layers, including a reflector engaging with a slot-coupling. For at least one pair of adjacent layers, for which the guide portion includes a non-planar reflector, the slot-coupling includes a plurality of slots. Each slot includes a main body that is elongate along at least one axis. The slots are placed on at least one row and together form a pattern that extends along the reflector and has a shape that is dependent on the shape of the reflector.
摘要:
A rotatable reflector antenna system that supports on-the-move communications to and from a mobile land, airborne, or maritime vehicle with a remote communication device, such as a geostationary satellite. The antenna system can include a pillbox antenna, a line feed antenna, or an array of horn antennas that convey electromagnetic waves between a transceiver (transmitter and/or receiver) and a reflector. The reflector may be embodied as a singly curved, parabolic cylinder reflector coupled to support members in a manner that enables the reflector to rotate with respect to the antenna. The reflector can rotate in a first direction, such as an elevation rotation, and the entire antenna system including the reflector can be mounted to a turntable or other rotatable platform that rotates in a second direction, such as an azimuth rotation.

A displaced feed antenna, operating at UHF, microwave, millimetre wave and tetrahertz frequencies, of mostly spaced conducting plate construction that incorporates electronically selectable feed points with associated antenna beam positions, which displaced feed antenna comprises: (i) a set of one or more beamforming configurations means (6) composed of layered, interlinking spaced conducting plates (1) and conducting boundaries that are separated by cavities containing dielectric material or free space; (ii) a set of one or more internal focusing means for each beamforming configuration to route radio frequency energy to or from the displaced feed points on receive and transmit respectively; (iii) a linear or curved array of displaced feed means for each beamforming configuration for coupling radio frequency energy into, or from, the cavity between the plates (2); (iv) a selection means (4) to allow definable overlapping regions of the focussing means to be illuminated for each beamforming configuration, by routing radio frequency energy via either selectively reflective elements or adjacent elements, or combinations of both, to create a displaced feed, controllable in extent and position, within the array of displayed feeds; and (v) a radio frequency transition means (3, 5) for each beamforming configuration between spaced conducting plates to free space, allowing either single polarisations or dual polarisation operation.
