  • Publication number: 20120293385
    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses an antenna device, which comprises an array antenna and a power divider. The array antenna comprises a plurality of antenna units, and each of the antenna units comprises a conductive sheet engraved with a groove topology pattern, conductive feeding points and a feeder line. The power divider is adapted to divide a baseband signal into a plurality of weighted signals and then transmit the weighted signals to the antenna units arranged in an array via the conductive feeding points respectively. By arraying the antenna units and using the beam forming method, the directionality of the antenna can be designed as needed through phase superposition between the antenna units; and then, a reflective metal plate is provided on the back side of the antenna so that a back lobe of the antenna is compressed. In this way, the miniaturized antenna array can obtain a high directionality.

  • Publication number: 20120280761
    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses an impedance matching component disposed between a first medium and a second medium, which is formed by stacking a plurality of homogeneous metamaterial sheet layers in a direction perpendicular to surfaces thereof. Each of the metamaterial sheet layers comprises a substrate and a plurality of man-made microstructures attached thereon. A first and last metamaterial sheet layers have impedances identical to those of the first and second media respectively. The man-made microstructures attached on the first metamaterial sheet layer have a first pattern, the man-made microstructures attached on the last metamaterial sheet layer have a second pattern, and the man-made microstructures attached on intermediate ones of the metamaterial sheet layers have patterns that are combinations of the first and second patterns, with the first pattern becoming smaller continuously and the second pattern becoming larger continuously in the stacking direction of the metamaterial sheet layers.

  • Publication number: 20120268818
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a depolarizer based on a metamaterial, which comprises a plurality of sheet layers parallel with each other. Each of the sheet layers has a sheet substrate and a plurality of man-made microstructures attached on the sheet substrate. The sheet substrate is divided into a plurality of identical unit bodies. Each of the unit bodies and one of the man-made microstructures that is attached thereon form a cell that has an anisotropic electromagnetic property. Each of the sheet layers has at least two cells whose optical axes are unparallel with each other. According to the depolarizer based on a metamaterial of the present disclosure, at least two cells whose optical axes are unparallel with each other are disposed in each of the metalmaterial sheet layers.
