Agrupación de antenas microstrip para un receptor SAR biestático

El objetivo de este proyecto es el diseño de las antenas para el receptor de un radar de apertura sintética biestáticos (SAR). Estas antenas tendrán que maximizar la ganancia con la restricción de maximizar también el campo de visión del radar. Esto quiere decir, que la antena tendrá que tener un ancho de banda relativamente grande en uno de sus planos principales y relativamente estrecho en el otro plano. Con el propósito de diseñar una agrupación de antenas para un receptor SAR biestático, en este documento se analiza la tecnología microstrip orientada a las antenas y la teoría de las agrupaciones de antenas, se diseñan antenas de doble polarización, se estudian agrupaciones de antenas microstrip que cumplan con las especificaciones, se presentan redes de alimentaciones para dichas agrupaciones y se fabrica y mide una agrupación de antenas con doble polarización.

Resonant frequencies of circular-sided dual-port microstrip antenna

A dual-port microstrip antenna with a crescent shaped patch with excellent isolation betwecn the ports has been reportcd [I]. Since circular-sided geometries are inore compact than rectangular oncs, thcy find morc applications in microstrip arrays. The crcscent shaped antenna geometry [ I ] provides greater area rcductioii compared to other circular sided patches for broadband operation [2]. In this Lctter, formulac for calculating thc TM, I and TMZI mode resonant frequencies of this microstrip antenna, obtained by modifying the equations of a standard circular patch [3] are presentcd. Thcorctical results are compared with experimental observations aid the validity of the computation is established.

Resonance Frequencies of Compact Microstrip Antenna

The arrow shaped microstrip antenna, which produces dual frequency dual polarisation operation with considera-ble size reduction compared to conventional patches has been reported [I]. These antennas provide greater area reduction and improved gain compared to drum shaped patches [2]. Prediction of the resonance frequency of drum shaped patches [3] and circular patches for broadband operation [4] are available in the literature. In this Letter, we propose empirical formulas for calculating the resonance frequencies of the arrow shaped microstrip antenna. These antennas can be employed for obtaining dual frequency with the same polarisation, bandwidth enhancement, circular polarisation etc. by varying its different parameters or by introducing slots. The proposed design equations provide an easier and simple way of predicting the resonant frequencies of these patches.

Proceedings Of Eleventh National Symposium On Antennas And Propagation

In this paper we have investigated the effect of cavity diameter and wall height on resonance and radiation characteristics of a circular microstrip patch antenna. Experiments were conducted using a fabricated prototype placed inside a cylindrical cavity. The results were compared and verified with simulated data obtained using an electromagnetic simulator. About 9.6 to 10.5 dBi peak gain was obtained from measured and simulated data

The above excellent radiation characteristics are achieved along with an area reduction of - 75% compared to the standard rectangular patch
