  • Patent number: 9634398
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a Cassegrain satellite television antenna comprising a metamaterial plate. The metamaterial plate comprises a core layer. The core layer comprises core sublayers. Each core sublayer comprises a circular area and a plurality of annuli distributed around the circular area. According to the Cassegrain satellite television antenna of the present invention, the traditional parabolic antenna is replaced with a sheet-like metamaterial plate which is easier to process and has a lower cost. In addition, the present invention also provides a satellite television receiving system equipped with the above-mentioned Cassegrain satellite television antenna.

  • Patent number: 9601835
    Abstract: Disclosed is an offset feed satellite television antenna comprising a metamaterial panel (100) arranged behind a feed (1). The metamaterial panel (100) comprises a core layer (10) and a reflective panel (200) arranged on a lateral surface of the core layer (10). The core layer (10) comprises at least one core layer lamella (11). The core layer lamella (11) can be divided into multiple belt areas on the basis of refractive indexes. With a fixed point as a center, the refractive indexes on the multiple belt areas are identical at a same radius, while the refractive indexes on each belt area decrease gradually as the radius increases. For two adjacent belt areas, the minimum value of the refractive indexes of the inner belt area is less than the maximum value of the refractive indexes of the outer belt area. A connection between the center and the feed (1) is perpendicular to the core layer lamella (11), while the center does not overlap the center of the core layer lamella (11).

  • Patent number: 9331393
    Abstract: A front feed satellite television antenna includes a metamaterial panel. The metamaterial panel includes a core layer and a reflective panel. The core layer includes a core layer lamella which further includes a circular area and multiple annular areas distributed around the circular area. Within the circular area and the annular areas, refractive indexes are identical at a same radius, and within the respective areas, the refractive indexes decrease gradually as radius increases. The minimum refractive index of the circular area is less than the maximum the refractive index of the annular area adjacent thereto. For two adjacent annular areas, the minimum refractive index of the annular area at the inner side is less than the maximum refractive indexes of the annular area at the outer side. The metamaterial panel can replace conventional parabolic antenna, thus facilitating manufacturing and processing, and further reducing costs.

  • Patent number: 9035850
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a metamaterial for diverging an electromagnetic wave, which comprises at least one metamaterial sheet layer. Refractive indices of the metamaterial sheet layer are distributed in a circular form with a center of the metamaterial sheet layer, and the refractive indices remain unchanged at a same radius and increase gradually with the radius. The present disclosure changes electromagnetic parameters at each point of the metamaterial through punching or by attaching man-made microstructures so that the electromagnetic wave can be diverged after passing through the metamaterial. The metamaterial of the present disclosure features a simple manufacturing process and a low cost, and is easy to be implemented. Moreover, the metamaterial of the present disclosure has small dimensions and does not occupy a large space, so it is easy to miniaturize apparatuses made of the metamaterial of the present disclosure.
