[0050] Step 1: Given the antenna center frequency f, determine and optimize the structure of a single array element to generate circularly polarized waves, so that the axial ratio of the circularly polarized waves at the center frequency is less than 3dB;

[0051] The antenna center frequency f is 2GHz. After calculation and simulation software optimization, the length and width of the square radiation patch are both taken as 46.65mm. The feeding point of the two L-shaped probes is directly below the midpoint of the two collar edges of the patch.

Abstract

The invention discloses a circular antenna array design method for a rotation circular polarization array element to produce an OAM beam. The design method comprises the steps that 1 the antenna center frequency f is given, and the structure of a single array element is determined and optimized to generate circular polarization waves; 2 N array elements determined in the step 1 are equidistantly arranged along the circumference into an initial uniform circular array antenna; 3 feed excitation of the same phase is carried out on each array element in an initial circular array, and codirectionalrotation at a specific angle is carried out to acquire a rotated circular antenna array; and 4 the radius of the circumference of the rotated circular antenna array is adjusted, so that the field phase diagram of the rotated circular antenna array presents a spiral phase wavefront and the OAM beam is produced to acquire the final circular antenna array. According to the invention, multiple phaseshifters of different lengths are not needed; the design of a feeding network is simplified; and a phase error introduced by each phase shifter is avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of wireless communication, and in particular relates to a design method of a circular antenna array for generating OAM beams. Background technique [0002] OAM (Orbital Angular Momentum, orbital angular momentum) beam, also known as vortex electromagnetic wave, is a special electromagnetic wave that carries OAM and has a helical phase wavefront. As we all know, due to the increasing demand for various communications, spectrum resources are becoming more and more scarce. In order to improve the utilization of spectrum resources, various multiplexing technologies have been invented. The earth broadens the ability to transmit signals. Therefore, OAM beams have received more and more attention and research in the field of communication in recent years. [0003] OAM beam generation methods mainly include helical parabolic antennas and circular antenna arrays with phase control. Compared with the helical parabolic antenna...
