Abstract

This paper proposes an ultra-wideband (UWB) polarization reconfigurable array antenna (PRAA) which realizes linear polarization (LP), right-hand circular polarization (RHCP) and left-hand circular polarization (LHCP). The proposed UWB PRAA comprises a cross-orthogonal Vivaldi array antenna and a reconfigurable feeding network which is constructed by UWB phase shifters and power dividers. Polarized reconfiguration of the PRAA is achieved by controlling the on–off state of the PIN diodes on the reconfigurable feeding network. The proposed UWB PRAA has an LP operating bandwidth of 1.95–12.55 GHz with a maximum gain of 17 dBi, and the operating bandwidth of both LHCP and RHCP is 2.8–12.6 GHz with a maximum gain of 17.5 dBi. The relative bandwidth of the triple-polarized reconfiguration array antenna is 127 %. The measurement results show good agreement with simulation, which indicates the proposed antenna is a good candidate for advanced UWB and multi-polarization requirement systems.

超宽带三极化可重构维瓦尔第阵列天线

本文提出了一种可实现线性极化（LP）、右旋圆极化（RHCP）和左旋圆极化（LHCP）的超宽带（UWB）极化可重构阵列天线（PRAA）。拟议的 UWB PRAA 由一个交叉正交维瓦尔第阵列天线和一个可重构馈电网络组成，后者由 UWB 移相器和功率分配器构成。通过控制可重构馈电网络上 PIN 二极管的通断状态，可实现 PRAA 的极化重配置。拟议的 UWB PRAA 的 LP 工作带宽为 1.95-12.55 GHz，最大增益为 17 dBi，LHCP 和 RHCP 的工作带宽为 2.8-12.6 GHz，最大增益为 17.5 dBi。三极化重配置阵列天线的相对带宽为 127%。测量结果与仿真结果显示出良好的一致性，这表明所提出的天线是先进的 UWB 和多极化要求系统的理想候选天线。
