  • Patent number: 12283752
    Abstract: The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of OAM antennas, and provides a frequency re-configurable OAM antenna in S band and a frequency reconfiguration method. The OAM antenna includes a lower dielectric substrate and multiple array units. Each array unit includes a metal patch, an upper dielectric substrate, an outer loop, an inner loop, a coaxial feeder, four metal probes, and four diodes. In the present disclosure, bias states of all the diodes of each array unit are controlled by applying a voltage; when all the diodes are in forward bias states, the antenna works at a high frequency; and when all the diodes are in reverse bias states, the antenna works at a low frequency. The frequency re-configurable OAM antenna in S band in the present disclosure has features of frequency reconfiguration and two OAM radiation modes, and has a stable gain over a broadband.

  • Patent number: 12126396
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a domain decomposition method and system for electromagnetic simulation. The method includes: dividing an antenna structure model into multiple subdomains, where each of the subdomains corresponds to a structure in one to-be-simulated array antenna; subdividing each of the subdomains by a tetrahedral network to obtain multiple tetrahedrons; obtaining a vector basis function of each edge of each of the tetrahedrons according to vertex positions and lengths of the edges of the tetrahedron; and calculating an electric field value and a magnetic field value of any point in a tetrahedron to which each of the edges belongs using a vector basis function corresponding to the edge and a double curl electric field wave equation of a subdomain to which the edge belongs.

  • Patent number: 12095135
    Abstract: An ultra-wideband electromagnetic band gap (EBG) structure includes multiple EBG units in an array. Each EBG unit includes a power plane, a dielectric substrate and a ground plane from top to bottom. The power plane includes a patch, a coupled complementary split ring resonator (C-CSRR) and a plurality of semi-improved Z-bridge structures. Each edge of the patch is provided with a semi-improved Z-bridge structure. The C-CSRR is provided within a ring formed by the semi-improved Z-bridge structures. The Z-bridge structure includes a first horizontal branch, a first vertical branch, a second horizontal branch and a second vertical branch connected in sequence. The second vertical branch is connected to the patch. First horizontal branches of adjacent EBG units are connected to each other. A circuit board including the aforementioned EBG structure is also provided.

  • Publication number: 20240305014
    Abstract: Disclosed are a broadband millimeter-wave circularly polarized antenna element, a single-mode array, and a dual-mode array, relating to the technical field of circularly polarized antennas. A microstrip feeder is arranged on a lower surface of a second dielectric substrate of the antenna element. A coupling slot is etched on a metal ground layer, two metallized vias are formed on a first dielectric substrate, and a metal strip is tiled on an upper surface of the first dielectric substrate. Two L-shaped parasitic patches are also tiled on the first dielectric substrate. The two L-shaped parasitic patches are located on both sides of the metal strip, and the two L-shaped parasitic patches are rotationally symmetric about a center point of the upper surface of the first dielectric substrate. According to the present disclosure, a 3-dB axial ratio bandwidth of the antenna element is improved by using L-shaped parasitic patches.
