Description

Translated fromFrench
DOMAINEFIELD

La présente invention se rapporte à une antenne de télécommunication à réflecteur concave ayant par exemple la forme d'au moins une portion de parabole,. Ces antennes, notamment de type micro-onde, sont utilisées habituellement dans les réseaux de communication mobile. Ces antennes fonctionnent indifféremment en mode transmetteur ou en mode récepteur, correspondant à deux sens opposés de propagation des ondes RF.The present invention relates to a telecommunication antenna with concave reflector having for example the shape of at least one parabola portion. These antennas, in particular of the microwave type, are usually used in mobile communication networks. These antennas operate indifferently in transmitter mode or in receiver mode, corresponding to two opposite directions of RF wave propagation.

ARRIERE PLANBACKGROUND

Dans les antennes à réflecteur parabolique, la valeur du diamètre du réflecteur est déterminée par la fréquence centrale de travail de l'antenne. Plus la fréquence de travail de l'antenne est basse, plus le diamètre du réflecteur est important à gain d'antenne équivalent. Pour les antennes à réflecteur profond (« deep dish » en anglais), le rapport F/D est inférieur ou égal à 0,25. Dans ce rapport, F est la distance focale du réflecteur (distance entre le sommet du réflecteur et son foyer) et D est le diamètre du réflecteur. Ces antennes présentent des pertes par débordement (« spillover » en anglais) qui sont élevées et diminuent le rapport avant/arrière (« front-to-back ratio » en anglais) de l'antenne. Les pertes par débordement conduisent à une pollution de l'environnement par les ondes RF et doivent être limitées à des niveaux définis par des normes.In parabolic reflector antennas, the value of the reflector diameter is determined by the central working frequency of the antenna. The lower the working frequency of the antenna, the greater the diameter of the reflector at equivalent antenna gain. For antennas deep reflector ("deep dish" in English), the F / D ratio is less than or equal to 0.25. In this report, F is the focal length of the reflector (distance between the top of the reflector and its focus) and D is the diameter of the reflector. These antennas have spillover losses which are high and reduce the front-to-back ratio of the antenna. Overflow losses lead to environmental pollution by RF waves and must be limited to levels defined by standards.

Une solution habituelle est d'attacher à la périphérie du réflecteur parabolique une paroi cylindrique, appelée aussi jupe (« shroud » en anglais), de diamètre voisin de celui du réflecteur et de hauteur convenable, le plus souvent revêtue d'un matériau absorbant le rayonnement RF. L'utilisation d'une jupe absorbante onéreuse est nécessaire pour limiter l'effet de débordement et améliorer es performances de l'antenne. Néanmoins, cette solution augmente le coût de l'antenne, ses dimensions et rend plus complexe l'emballage pour le transportA usual solution is to attach to the periphery of the parabolic reflector a cylindrical wall, also called skirt ("shroud" in English), of diameter close to that of the reflector and of suitable height, most often coated with a material absorbing the RF radiation. The use of an expensive absorbent skirt is necessary to limit the overflow effect and improve the performance of the antenna. Nevertheless, this solution increases the cost of the antenna, its dimensions and makes more complex the packaging for the transport

Cependant la présence de la jupe augmente la prise au vent de l'antenne et le risque d'accumulation d'éléments polluant. Aussi on associe à la jupe un radôme qui présente une surface protectrice imperméable cloisonnant l'espace défini par le réflecteur et la jupe vis-à-vis de l'extérieur. Ce radôme peut être souple ou rigide, plan ou non, et de forme quelconque. Un radôme rigide circulaire, le plus utilisé actuellement, présente l'avantage d'une bonne résistance vis-à-vis de l'environnement climatique extérieur tel que pluie, vent ou neige.However the presence of the skirt increases the wind gain of the antenna and the risk of accumulation of pollutants. Also associated with the skirt a radome which has an impervious protective surface partitioning the space defined by the reflector and the skirt vis-à-vis the outside. This radome can be flexible or rigid, plane or not, and of any shape. A rigid circular radome, the most used at present, has the advantage of good resistance to the external climatic environment such as rain, wind or snow.

RESUMEABSTRACT

Pour éliminer ces inconvénients, on propose de supprimer la jupe. Toutefois en l'absence de jupe le rayonnement latéral de l'antenne subsiste et peut provoquer un débordement. On cherche donc à limiter ce débordement, tout en conservant des performances de même niveau que les antennes micro-ondes connues ayant un réflecteur parabolique munie d'une jupe.To eliminate these disadvantages, it is proposed to remove the skirt. However, in the absence of skirt, the lateral radiation of the antenna remains and can cause an overflow. It is therefore sought to limit this overflow, while maintaining performance at the same level as known microwave antennas having a parabolic reflector provided with a skirt.

Le but est donc de proposer un radôme permettant d'obtenir un diagramme de radiation conduisant à des performances satisfaisantes, conformes aux normes existantes, avec un faible impact sur le gain de l'antenne.The goal is to propose a radome to obtain a radiation pattern leading to satisfactory performance, consistent with existing standards, with a small impact on the gain of the antenna.

L'objet de la présente invention est un radôme pour une antenne à réflecteur concave, fixé directement sur le bord du réflecteur, la surface intérieure du radôme comportant au moins une pièce absorbante couvrant partiellement sa surface et disposée le long de son bord périphérique.The object of the present invention is a radome for a concave reflector antenna, fixed directly to the edge of the reflector, the inner surface of the radome having at least one absorbent piece partially covering its surface and disposed along its peripheral edge.

Le radôme est « fixé directement sur le bord du réflecteur » car le réflecteur ne comporte pas de jupe de telle sorte que le radôme n'est pas attaché à une jupe, mais directement au réflecteur.The radome is "fixed directly to the reflector edge" because the reflector has no skirt so that the radome is not attached to a skirt, but directly to the reflector.

De préférence la surface du radôme couverte par la ou les pièce(s) absorbante(s) est inférieure à 15% de la surface totale.Preferably the surface of the radome covered by the absorbent part (s) is less than 15% of the total area.

Selon un premier aspect, la pièce absorbante a une forme annulaire.According to a first aspect, the absorbent piece has an annular shape.

Selon un deuxième aspect, la pièce absorbante a une forme sensiblement triangulaire, la base de la pièce absorbante étant arrondie suivant le bord du radôme.According to a second aspect, the absorbent part has a substantially triangular shape, the base of the absorbent part being rounded along the edge of the radome.

Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, la pièce absorbante a une forme sensiblement triangulaire, une partie de sa surface ayant été enlevée latéralement, la base de la pièce absorbante suivant le bord du radôme.According to a preferred embodiment, the absorbent piece has a substantially triangular shape, a part of its surface having been removed laterally, the base of the absorbent piece following the edge of the radome.

Selon une variante, la partie de surface enlevée est constituée par l'élimination de surfaces de chaque côté du triangle selon une découpe en arc de cercle.Alternatively, the removed surface portion is constituted by the removal of surfaces on each side of the triangle in an arcuate cut.

Selon une autre variante, la partie de surface enlevée est constituée par l'élimination de surfaces de chaque côté du triangle selon une découpe en forme de triangle isocèle.According to another variant, the removed surface portion consists of the elimination of surfaces on each side of the triangle in an isosceles triangle-shaped cutout.

De préférence, le radôme comporte deux pièces absorbantes en position diamétralement opposée.Preferably, the radome comprises two absorbent parts in diametrically opposite position.

Le radôme a été modifié par l'ajout de pièces constituées d'un matériau absorbant avec une forme particulièrement étudiée pour réduire le débordement et au moins conserver les performances du diagramme de rayonnement avec le plus faible impact sur le gain, sans qu'il soit nécessaire d'ajouter une jupe.The radome has been modified by the addition of absorbent material parts with a particularly studied shape to reduce the overflow and at least maintain the performance of the radiation pattern with the least impact on the gain, without it being necessary to add a skirt.

Selon une forme d'exécution, la longueur de la base de la pièce absorbante est comprise entre D/5 et 2D/5 où D est le diamètre du radôme.According to one embodiment, the length of the base of the absorbent part is between D / 5 and 2D / 5 where D is the diameter of the radome.

Selon une autre forme d'exécution, le rapport de la longueur de la base de la pièce absorbante à la hauteur de la pièce absorbante est compris entre 1 et 2.According to another embodiment, the ratio of the length of the base of the absorbent part to the height of the absorbent part is between 1 and 2.

L'invention a encore pour objet une antenne à réflecteur concave comportant un radôme fixé directement sur le bord du réflecteur, la surface intérieure du radôme comportant au moins une pièce absorbante couvrant partiellement sa surface et disposée le long de son bord périphérique.The invention further relates to a concave reflector antenna having a radome fixed directly on the edge of the reflector, the inner surface of the radome having at least one absorbent piece partially covering its surface and disposed along its peripheral edge.

Selon un mode particulier de réalisation, le radôme est circulaire, plan et rigide.According to a particular embodiment, the radome is circular, plane and rigid.

Une antenne micro-ondes à faible débordement est une garantie de qualité d'émission/réception car elle permet de réaliser la liaison radio avec de très faibles interférences entre les antennes voisines, en particulier dans une zone à forte densité d'antennes. En outre cette antenne est moins onéreuse, de taille réduite et d'un transport plus facile que les antennes de l'art antérieur.A microwave antenna with low overflow is a guarantee of transmission / reception quality because it makes it possible to achieve the radio link with very little interference between the neighboring antennas, in particular in a zone with a high density of antennas. In addition this antenna is less expensive, smaller in size and easier to transport than antennas of the prior art.

DESCRIPTION DETAILLEEDETAILED DESCRIPTION

Lafigure 1 illustre une antenne1 comprenant un réflecteur primaire2 concave et un réflecteur secondaire3. L'antenne1 est alimentée par un guide d'onde4 qui peut être un tube creux métallique, par exemple en aluminium. Les réflecteurs2, 3 sont protégés par un radôme5. Cette antenne1 ne comporte pas de jupe absorbante. Le guide d'onde4 émet un rayonnement incident en direction du réflecteur secondaire3 qui est réfléchi vers le réflecteur primaire2, formant le faisceau principal6 en direction d'un récepteur. Cependant une partie du rayonnement incident est renvoyé dans une direction divergente et provoque des pertes par débordement7. Une autre partie du rayonnement est réfléchi par le réflecteur primaire2, mais ce rayonnement réfléchi est masqué par le réflecteur secondaire3 qui le renvoie à nouveau vers le réflecteur primaire2. Il est alors réfléchi par le réflecteur primaire2 et renvoyé dans une direction divergente, provoquant des pertes par effet de masque8.The figure 1 illustrates an antenna1 comprising a concaveprimary reflector2 and a secondary reflector3. The antenna1 is fed by awaveguide4 which may be a metal hollow tube, for example aluminum. Thereflectors2, 3 are protected by aradome5. This antenna1 does not have an absorbent skirt. Thewaveguide4 emits incident radiation towards the secondary reflector3 which is reflected towards theprimary reflector2, forming the main beam6 towards a receiver. However, part of the incident radiation is returned in a divergent direction and causes losses byoverflow7. Another part of the radiation is reflected by theprimary reflector2, but this reflected radiation is masked by the secondary reflector3 which returns it again to theprimary reflector2. It is then reflected by theprimary reflector2 and returned in a divergent direction, causing loss by mask effect8.

Dans le mode de réalisation de l'invention illustré sur lafigure 2, une antenne10 comprend un réflecteur primaire11 concave et un réflecteur secondaire12. L'antenne10 est alimentée par un guide d'onde13. Les réflecteurs11, 12 sont protégés par un radôme14. Le guide d'onde13 émet un rayonnement incident en direction du réflecteur secondaire12 dont une partie15 est renvoyée dans une direction divergente. Des pièces absorbantes16 sont disposées sur la face interne du radôme14 le long du bord du réflecteur primaire11. Le rayonnement latéral divergent15 est absorbé par les pièces16 et le débordement est ainsi évité, sans compromettre les autres caractéristiques.In the embodiment of the invention illustrated on the figure 2 anantenna10 comprises a concaveprimary reflector11 and asecondary reflector12. Theantenna10 is powered by awaveguide13. Thereflectors11, 12 are protected by aradome14. Thewaveguide13 emits a incident radiation towards thesecondary reflector12 , aportion15 is returned in a divergent direction.Absorbent parts16 are disposed on the inner face of theradome14 along the edge of theprimary reflector11. The diverginglateral radiation15 is absorbed by theparts16 and the overflow is thus avoided, without compromising the other characteristics.

Lafigure 3 illustre un premier mode de réalisation d'une antenne30 micro-onde à réflecteur31 concave profond à ouverture circulaire, protégé par un radôme32 qui est ici un radôme plan rigide. Un anneau33 en matériau absorbant de largeurH0 est disposé sur la face interne34 du radôme32 le long du bord périphérique du réflecteur31. De la largeurH0 de l'anneau absorbant33 dépend la réduction du débordement. La présence de l'anneau absorbant33 permet de réduire significativement les pertes par débordement. Toutefois dans le cas présent, l'impact de l'anneau absorbant33 sur le gain de l'antenne30 sera relativement important à cause de la grande surface du radôme couverte par l'anneau qui ne devrait toutefois pas dépasser 25% de la surface totale, et de préférence ne pas dépasser 15%. En outre l'amélioration du diagramme de rayonnement de l'antenne30 dans le plan horizontal n'est pas privilégiée par ce mode de réalisation. On a décrit une pièce absorbante ayant la forme d'un anneau plein continu. Toutefois on pourra envisager par exemple un anneau formé d'une succession de triangle formant un bord interne denté.The figure 3 illustrates a first embodiment of amicrowave antenna30reflector31 deep concave circular opening, protected by aradome32 which is here a rigid radome plan. Aring33 of absorbent material of widthH0 is disposed on theinner face34 of theradome32 along the peripheral edge of thereflector31. The widthH0 of theabsorbent ring33 depends on the reduction of the overflow. The presence of theabsorbent ring33 makes it possible to significantly reduce the overflow losses. However, in the present case, the impact of theabsorbent ring33 on the gain of theantenna30 will be relatively high because of the large area of the radome covered by the ring, which should not, however, exceed 25% of the surface area. total, and preferably not to exceed 15%. In addition, the improvement of the radiation pattern of theantenna30 in the horizontal plane is not preferred by this embodiment. An absorbent member having the shape of a continuous solid ring has been described. However one can consider for example a ring formed of a succession of triangles forming a toothed inner edge.

On considérera maintenant lafigure 4 qui illustre un deuxième mode de réalisation d'une antenne40 micro-onde à réflecteur41 concave profond et à faible distance focale (F/D = 0,2) protégé par un radôme42 plan rigide de forme circulaire. Des pièces absorbantes43 sont placées de manière diamétralement opposée afin d'améliorer les performances dans le plan horizontal (plan de l'azimut) en agissant d'une manière analogue à une jupe. Les pièces absorbantes43 sont disposées sur la face interne44 du radôme41 le long de sa périphérie qui suit le bord du réflecteur41.We will now consider the figure 4 which illustrates a second embodiment of amicrowave antenna40 with a deepconcave reflector41 and low focal length (F / D = 0.2) protected by aradome42 rigid plane of circular shape.Absorbent pieces43 are placed diametrically opposite to improve performance in the horizontal plane (azimuth plane) by acting in a skirt-like manner. Theabsorbent pieces43 are disposed on theinner face44 of theradome41 along its periphery which follows the edge of thereflector41.

Les pièces absorbantes43 ont une forme particulière : ici sensiblement triangulaire, la base de la pièce absorbante suivant le bord du radôme qui est arrondi. De la hauteurH1 de la pièce absorbante dépend la réduction du débordement et la longueurB1 de la base de la pièce absorbante43 agit sur le rapport avant/arrière de l'antenne, c'est-à-dire le rapport entre l'intensité de rayonnement du lobe principal à l'avant de l'antenne et l'intensité du lobe arrière à 180°, ici dans le plan horizontal. Les pièces absorbantes43 couvrent au plus 15% de la surface intérieure du radôme42.Theabsorbent parts43 have a particular shape: here substantially triangular, the base of the absorbent part along the edge of the radome which is rounded. From the heightH1 of the absorbent part depends the reduction of the overflow and the lengthB1 of the base of theabsorbent part43 acts on the forward / backward ratio of the antenna, that is to say the ratio between the intensity of the main lobe radiation at the front of the antenna and the intensity of the back lobe at 180 °, here in the horizontal plane. Theabsorbent parts43 cover at most 15% of the interior surface of theradome42.

Lafigure 5 illustre un troisième mode de réalisation avantageux d'une antenne50 micro-onde fonctionnant dans un domaine de fréquence élevé (GHz), qui comporte un réflecteur51 concave profond et à faible distance focale (F/D = 0,2) protégé par un radôme52 plan rigide de forme circulaire. Des pièces absorbantes53 sont disposées sur la face interne54 du radôme52 le long du bord du réflecteur51. La pièce absorbante53 est réalisée dans un matériau absorbant tel que par exemple une mousse polyuréthanne imprégnée de carbone. Pour un fonctionnement satisfaisant de l'antenne50 dans une bande de fréquence de 6 GHz à 40 GHz, l'épaisseur d'une pièce absorbante53 est inférieure à 20 mm, et de préférence de l'ordre de 12 mm.The figure 5 illustrates a third advantageous embodiment of amicrowave antenna50 operating in a high frequency range (GHz), which comprises a deepconcave reflector51 and a short focal length (F / D = 0.2) protected by aradome52 rigid plane of circular shape.Absorbent parts53 are arranged on theinner face54 of theradome52 along the edge of thereflector51. Theabsorbent part53 is made of an absorbent material such as for example a carbon impregnated polyurethane foam. For satisfactory operation of theantenna50 in a frequency band from 6 GHz to 40 GHz, the thickness of anabsorbent part53 is less than 20 mm, and preferably of the order of 12 mm.

Les pièces absorbantes53 sont placées de manière diamétralement opposée pour améliorer les performances dans le plan horizontal. Les pièces absorbantes53 couvrent au plus 15% de la surface intérieure du radôme52. Au-delà de 15%, l'impact de la présence des pièces absorbantes53 sur le gain de l'antenne devient important et les lobes secondaires du diagramme de rayonnement augmentent. Dans le cas présent les pièces absorbantes53 couvrent environ 10% de la surface intérieure du radôme52. Le rapport avant/arrière du diagramme de rayonnement est alors significativement amélioré avec peu d'impact sur le gain (0,3 dB au maximum).Theabsorbent pieces53 are placed diametrically opposite to improve the performance in the horizontal plane. Theabsorbent parts53 cover at most 15% of the inner surface of theradome52. Above 15%, the impact of the presence of theabsorbent parts53 on the gain of the antenna becomes important and the secondary lobes of the radiation increase. In this case theabsorbent parts53 cover about 10% of the interior surface of theradome52. The forward / backward ratio of the radiation pattern is then significantly improved with little impact on the gain (0.3 dB maximum).

La longueurB2 de la base de la pièce absorbante53 triangulaire est suffisamment importante pour obtenir un rapport avant/arrière élevé. La forme de la base de la pièce absorbante53 est adaptée à celle du bord du réflecteur afin de réduire efficacement le débordement sans qu'il soit nécessaire d'augmenter la hauteurH2 de la pièce absorbante53. La hauteurH2 de la pièce absorbante53 a un impact direct sur le domaine d'angle autour de 60° du diagramme de rayonnement d'une antenne à réflecteur parabolique profond. Par exemple, dans le cas d'un réflecteur concave à ouverture circulaire de diamètre D, la longueur de la baseB2 est de préférence comprise entre D/5 et 2D/5. Le rapport B2/H2 entre la longueur de la baseB2 et la hauteurH2 de la pièce absorbante53 est de préférence compris entre 1 et 2 : 1 ≤ B2/H2 ≤ 2. Ces valeurs permettent d'atteindre un résultat en termes de réduction du débordement et de rapport avant/arrière qui est significatif et permet un fonctionnement pleinement satisfaisant d'une telle antenne.The lengthB2 of the base of the triangularabsorbent piece53 is large enough to obtain a high forward / back ratio. The shape of the base of theabsorbent part53 is adapted to that of the edge of the reflector to reduce effectively overflow without the need to increase the heightH2 of theabsorbent part53. The heightH2 of theabsorbent part53 has a direct impact on the angle range around 60 ° of the radiation pattern of a deep parabolic reflector antenna. For example, in the case of a circular opening concave reflector of diameter D, the length of the baseB2 is preferably between D / 5 and 2D / 5. The ratio B2 / H2 between the length of the baseB2 and the heightH2 of theabsorbent part53 is preferably between 1 and 2: 1 ≤ B2 / H2 ≤ 2. These values make it possible to achieve a result in terms of reduction. overflow and forward / backward ratio which is significant and allows a fully satisfactory operation of such an antenna.

Dans ce mode de réalisation la pièce absorbante a la forme d'un triangle dont une partie de la surface a été enlevée. La forme particulière de la pièce absorbante53 est obtenue de préférence en éliminant des surfaces60 arrondies de chaque côté du triangle selon une découpe qui peut prendre la forme d'un arc de cercle61, comme illustré sur lafigure 6 par exemple, sans modifier la hauteurH2 de la pièce absorbante53. La surface arrondie ou segment circulaire60 est une partie d'un disque62 définie comme un domaine séparé du reste du disque62 par une corde ou droite sécante63. Le segment circulaire60 est donc la partie du disque comprise entre la droite sécante63 et l'arc de cercle61. La forme de la pièce absorbante53 est calculée pour obtenir un compromis favorable entre la réduction du débordement, l'amélioration du rapport avant/arrière et l'impact sur le gain de l'antenne50. La valeur du champ électromagnétique de la majeure partie de la surface centrale du radôme52 décroît assez rapidement quand on se rapproche du bord périphérique du radôme52 circulaire. La forme particulière de la pièce absorbante53 placée à proximité du bord du radôme52 permet de créer une zone de transition progressive entre le bord et la surface centrale du radôme52.In this embodiment the absorbent piece has the shape of a triangle of which part of the surface has been removed. The particular shape of theabsorbent piece53 is preferably obtained by eliminatingrounded surfaces60 on each side of the triangle in a cutout which may take the form of acircular arc61, as shown in FIG. figure 6 for example, without modifying the heightH2 of theabsorbent part53. The rounded surface orcircular segment60 is a part of adisk62 defined as a domain separated from the remainder of thedisk62 by a secant cord orstraight line63. Thecircular segment60 is the portion of the disk between thesecant line63 and thearc61. The shape of theabsorbent part53 is calculated to obtain a favorable compromise between the reduction of the overflow, the improvement of the forward / backward ratio and the impact on the gain of theantenna50. The value of the electromagnetic field of the major part of the central surface of theradome52 decreases quite rapidly as one approaches the peripheral edge of thecircular radome52 . The particular shape of theabsorbent part53 placed near the edge of theradome52 makes it possible to create a progressive transition zone between the edge and the central surface of theradome52.

La forme particulière de la pièce absorbante est de préférence obtenue à partir d'une forme sensiblement triangulaire en éliminant des surfaces sur les côtés du triangle de manière à réduire la surface correspondant à la pointe du triangle tout en préservant le plus possible de surface à la base. Cette forme est obtenue par une découpe qui peut notamment prendre la forme d'un arc de cercle61 comme illustré sur lesfigures 5 et 6, ou d'une courbe de Gauss, ou bien encore de toute autre forme permettant d'atteindre le but recherché telle qu'un triangle comme sur lafigure 7 ou un rectangle comme sur lafigure 8 par exemple.The particular shape of the absorbent piece is preferably obtained from a substantially triangular shape by eliminating surfaces on the sides of the triangle so as to reduce the area corresponding to the tip of the triangle while preserving as much of the surface as possible. based. This shape is obtained by a cutout which may in particular take the form of anarc61 as illustrated on the Figures 5 and 6 , or a Gaussian curve, or else any other form to reach the purpose sought such as a triangle like on the figure 7 or a rectangle like on the figure 8 for example.
