  • Publication number: 20190058258
    Abstract: There are provided a plurality of poles whose roots are connected to a central part and whose tips extend in mutually different directions on an identical plane or on an identical curved surface, wherein a pole width at each of the roots is narrower than a pole width between each of the roots and the corresponding one of the tips, and a pole width at each of the tips is narrower that the pole width between each of the roots and the corresponding one of the tips, each pole width being defined by a length of a line segment in a direction perpendicular, on the identical plane or on the identical curved surface, to a line segment connecting each of the roots to a corresponding one of the tips in the respective poles.

  • Publication number: 20190020118
    Abstract: A plurality of primary radiators (1) is classified by combinations of frequency and polarization of radiated radio waves, a plurality of primary radiators (1) belonging to the same class is arranged at positions corresponding to vertexes of one of triangles in a repeated triangle pattern TRPattern, and the shape of a main reflector (2) and the shape and arrangement of the repeated triangle pattern TRPattern are determined such that a direction of a line segment passing through positions corresponding to two vertexes in the triangle is different from a radiation direction of a sidelobe of a radio wave reflected by a main reflector (2) after having been radiated from a primary radiator (1) arranged at a position corresponding to the vertexes.

  • Patent number: 10166525
    Abstract: A microwave irradiating and heating device including: a reaction furnace containing a sample material to be irradiated with a microwave passed through an opening and to be heated; a microwave irradiating source disposed outside the reaction furnace; a rotated quadric surface mirror reflecting microwave emitted from the microwave irradiating source toward the opening, and disposed above the reaction furnace; a lid for the opening, at least a portion of the lid made from dielectric to transmit microwave reflected on the rotated quadric surface mirror into the reaction furnace; wherein an angle of incidence of the microwave, reflected on the rotated quadric surface mirror and irradiated at the portion of the lid made from the dielectric, is at an angle causing a polarized wave of the microwave to pass through the portion.

  • Patent number: 9543659
    Abstract: A reflector antenna device is configured to include a main reflector 1 that has a rectangular aperture shape 2, and a primary radiator 3 that radiates a beam having a rectangular shape similar to the aperture shape 2 of the main reflector 1 onto the main reflector 1. As the primary radiator 3, a multimode horn antenna, an active phased array antenna, or the like can be used. As a result, the degree of freedom of reflector shaping can be improved without causing reduction in efficiency.
