A Half-mode Millimeter Wave Polarization Detection Radiometer

Abstract

A semi-module millimeter wave polarization detection radiometer at least comprises a four-layer structure sequentially including a covering layer, a first metal layer, a dielectric substrate and a second metal layer from top to bottom. The semi-module millimeter wave polarization detection radiometer is characterized in that upper first polarization radiation units and lower second polarization radiation units are arranged on the first metal layer periodically and regularly, the advantageous performances of linear polarization and circular polarization of a traditional radiometer in a radiation system are taken into account, circular polarization waves and linear polarization waves give play to optimum performances by reasonable design and are creatively arranged on a semi-module substrateintegrated waveguide, comparatively perfect sweeping survey working performances are formed within a millimeter wave band, complex components and structures needed by a traditional radiation array are omitted, the size of the radiometer is further reduced by the aid of a semi-module substrate integrated waveguide structure, the radiometer has a wider sweeping survey bandwidth, side lobes are effectively inhibited, and a good application prospect is acquired.

Problems solved by technology

[0004] Many millimeter-wave detection and identification radiometers proposed by scholars currently use complex slow-wave structures for repeated accumulation or large-scale stacked array settings, which can obtain better gain effects and higher scanning resolution, but are complex The structure of the radiometer is often difficult to integrate, and it is difficult to find after the problem occurs. The method of forced integration in time will compromise the scanning angle and gain stability of the radiometer, and the stable scanning function cannot be realized.

[0005] In addition, there are two polarization standards currently used in target identification signal transmission: linear polarization and circular polarization, using vertical polarization (v) and horizontal polarization (H), left-handed circular polarization (L) and right-handed polarization Circular polarization (R), the attenuation of circularly polarized waves in rain, snow, and the atmosphere is small, the ability to penetrate the ionosphere is strong, and it is not affected by the Faraday effect caused by the magnetic field at the two poles of the earth. It is easy to install and debug (no need to adjust the polarization); It is much easier to manufacture a linearly polarized tuner with better performance than circularly polarized, and its efficiency is higher. The Faraday effect of the linearly polarized frequency band above 10 GHz is very small, and it is widely used in mid-latitude regions. The disadvantage is that the polarization needs to be adjusted.

[0006] Therefore, when many current radiometers are used for polarized radiation, in order to take into account the obtained two types of radiation polarization effects, there are also quite a few multi-polarization radiometer structures, such as choosing to adjust the phase and amplitude of the incoming excitation signal of the incident electromagnetic wave, Realize linearly polarized or circularly polarized radiation, but work is limited to radiation of one polarized electromagnetic wave, and radiometers that list two or more polarizations at the same time have not yet appeared, which limits the identification of different polarized electromagnetic waves space of action
