Problems solved by technology

[0005] To sum up, the existing research has achieved the design of surface wave antennas in specific scenarios, but only for a single plane or curved surface conformal structure. Due to their respective limitations, they cannot solve the problem of electromagnetic waves propagating on a plane. Diffraction propagation after the curved surface protrudes and produces directional radiation in the end-fire direction

Abstract

The invention provides a conformal surface wave antenna based on a holographic metasurface. The conformal surface wave antenna comprises a monopole feed source and a holographic impedance surface, theholographic impedance surface comprises m*n periodically arranged impedance surface units, each impedance surface unit comprises a dielectric plate, a square metal patch printed at the center position of the upper surface of the dielectric plate and a metal floor arranged at the lower surface of the dielectric plate, the surface impedance of each impedance surface unit is distributed based on theinterference pattern of a holographic principle, the reference waves corresponding to the distribution of the interference patterns are cylindrical surface waves generated by the monopole feed source, and a target wave is a radiation plane wave in the endfire direction of the holographic impedance surface. Directed radiation is achieved in the endfire direction of the conformal surface wave antenna prior to generation of the cylindrical surface waves, which are subjected to impedance modulation of the holographic impedance surface, by employing the monopole feed source to form a flat plane wave, and when a conformal surface wave antenna meets a curved surface bulge, diffraction propagation of the surface wave can be achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of antennas, and relates to a conformal surface wave antenna, in particular to a conformal surface wave antenna based on a holographic principle and an artificial impedance surface, which can be used in aircraft systems and communication systems. [0002] technical background [0003] Surface wave antennas based on artificial electromagnetic structures are easy to install on various surfaces because of their low profile, small volume, and low air resistance, so they can be well used as transmitting or receiving antennas for millimeter wave communication systems and are widely used In aircraft systems and communication systems. [0004] Surface wave antennas based on artificial electromagnetic structures in existing research involve planar structures and curved surface conformal structures, which can achieve end-fire or edge-fire radiation. For example, in 2014, in his master's thesis titled "Design of a New ...
