Abstract

A ultrawideband, high isolation dual-polarized endfire antenna is presented in this article. Based on the high isolation of the substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) and stripline, we innovatively developed an SIW-fed magnetoelectric (ME) dipole as the vertically polarized (VP) endfire antenna and a stripline-fed tapered slot antenna (TSA) as horizontally polarized (HP) endfire antenna. These two antennas realize ultrawide bandwidth and can share a radiation aperture. Meanwhile, the ME dipole acts as a parasitic structure, which greatly improves the impedance matching of the TSA in the working band. Due to this innovative design, the proposed dual-polarized endfire antenna realizes an operating bandwidth of 60% and a port isolation level exceeding 35 dB. To satisfy the requirements of 5G communication systems, we designed a multibeam antenna system composed of seven dual-polarized endfire antennas and a 3-D-printed Luneburg lens. The measured results indicate that the multibeam antenna achieves an overlapped bandwidth of 58% and a maximum gain of about 20.5 dBi. The gain variation within the scanning range of ±66° was less than 1 dB. With the merits of low cross-polarization, wideband, and high isolation, the presented dual-polarized antenna is an ideal candidate for 5G millimeter-wave (mmWave) systems.

用于 5G 多波束系统的超宽带和高隔离度毫米波双极化端射天线

本文介绍了一种超宽带、高隔离度双极化末端发射天线。基于基片集成波导（SIW）和带状线的高隔离度，我们创新性地开发了一种由 SIW 供电的磁电偶极子作为垂直极化（VP）端射天线，以及一种由带状线供电的锥形槽天线作为水平极化（HP）端射天线。这两种天线可实现超宽带宽，并可共享一个辐射孔径。同时，ME 偶极子作为一种寄生结构，大大改善了 TSA 在工作频段的阻抗匹配。基于这种创新设计，所提出的双极化端射天线实现了 60% 的工作带宽和超过 35 dB 的端口隔离度。为了满足 5G 通信系统的要求，我们设计了一个由七个双极化端射天线和一个 3-D 打印的 Luneburg 透镜组成的多波束天线系统。测量结果表明，多波束天线的重叠带宽达到 58%，最大增益约为 20.5 dBi。在 ±66° 的扫描范围内，增益变化小于 1 dB。该双极化天线具有低交叉极化、宽带和高隔离度等优点，是 5G 毫米波（mmWave）系统的理想候选天线。
