Embodiment Construction

[0021] The specific implementation manners of the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0022] refer to figure 1 , the present invention provides an air-controlled deformation antenna based on liquid metal, including a flexible flow channel 1, a liquid metal 2, an air bag and an air pump 5, the liquid metal 2 and the air bag are both arranged inside the flexible flow channel 1, The air pump 5 is arranged outside the flexible channel 1 for inflating or inhaling the airbag. The air pump 5 is used to inflate the air bag to expand its volume, or the air bag is inhaled to shrink its volume, so that the liquid metal 2 in the flexible flow channel 1 can be controlled to move in the inner flow channel.

[0023] The bottom of the flexible flow channel 1 is provided ...

Abstract

The invention provides a liquid metal-based air-control deformable antenna. The liquid metal-based air-control deformable antenna comprises a flexible runner, liquid metal, an airbag and an air pump, wherein the liquid metal and the airbag are both arranged in the flexible runner; and the air pump is arranged on the exterior of the flexible runner and used for air inflation or air suction for the airbag. By inflating the airbag to expand the airbag, movement of the liquid metal in the flexible runner is pushed to form a specific shape; by inflating different airbags, volumes and shapes are changed, so that changes of the liquid metal antenna position, changes of the antenna diameter, changes of the antenna lengths, and changes of antenna tilted angle can be realized; the diameter and length of the air-control are relatively large in a changeable range, so that a relatively wide frequency band can be provided; and in addition, liquid metal material has mobility, so that cracking of the antenna can be prevented, and self recovery capability is achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of wireless communication, and more particularly, relates to an air-controlled deformable antenna based on liquid metal. Background technique [0002] An antenna is a device used in radio equipment to transmit or receive electromagnetic waves. Engineering systems such as radio communication, broadcasting, television, radar, navigation, remote sensing, and radio astronomy, which use electromagnetic waves to transmit information, rely on antennas to work. In recent years, with the rapid development of radar and communication systems, antennas of various sizes and shapes are required for automobiles, aircraft, ships and various civilian electronic equipment. The traditional solid metal antenna only has a specific shape, and in order to meet the requirements of different radio signal transmission and reception, it can only be solved by carrying multiple antennas, which undoubtedly increases the producti...
