SUBSTANCE: circular polarisation slit stripline leaky-wave antenna includes a dielectric substrate, on the lower metal-coated side of which there is a spiral-shaped microstrip feed line, and on the top metal-coated side of which there are main slit radiators twisted on a spiral around the geometric centre of the antenna and having straight and curved segments of different length; on the top metal-coated side of the dielectric substrate between the main slit radiators there are additional slits with a shorter electrical length than that of the main slit radiators; the additional slits are not connected to the main slit radiators and are in form of concentric arcs arranged around the geometric centre of the antenna or in form of spiral sections.
Slots added on the patch was proposed to provide broadband and smaller size antenna 18. The circular slot microstrip patch antenna reported in many papers 19 but the circular slot with plus sign was not introduced in the presented literature. The multiband antenna was proposed for different wireless applications. Strip line fed tapered slot antenna has gained the importance because of its ability to produce large impedance bandwidth. A tapered slot antenna uses a flared slot line etched on a dielectric substrate to produce an end-fire pattern from a surface wave.

The invention relates to antenna engineering, namely to slit strip antennas resulting wave with circular polarization, and can be used for receiving signals of Global navigation satellite systems (GNSS), including GLONASS, GPS, GALILEO, and OmniSTAR.
Technical requirements for receiving GNSS antennas vary depending on the destination receivers. For precision Metrology applications GNSS required broadband sebenarnya receiving antenna having a stable phase center characteristics a perfect right circular polarization and the suppression of multipath. In addition, it is desirable that the antenna high-precision positioning was low profile.
Famous slot spiral antenna with integrated transformer and feeder [US Patent 5,815,122, Filed: Jan. 11, 1996, Pub. Date: Sep.29, 1998]. The antenna is made on a dielectric substrate, on which both sides suffered conductive layer. In the upper conductive layer is made of a spiral slit line (SL)and the lower spiral microstrip line (MPL). Spiral XL Mat and twisted from the antenna edge to its center. The spiral Mat passes between the spirals SL. The upper conductive layer is grounded and the screen Mat. In this design the MICROSTRIP antenna is a feeder and performs the functions of the transformer resistance. This ant the nna has circular polarization.
The disadvantages of such antennas are high coefficient of ellipticity (expressed in dB) and large irregularity of the phase diagram directional in the azimuth plane, which limits the application of this antenna GNSS navigation signals.
Another well-known invention is the slit strip antenna leaky waves [US Patent 2002/0067315 Al, Filed: 16 Aug., 1999, Pub. Date: 6 Jun., 2002]. The antenna is made on a dielectric substrate with double-sided metallization. In the metal the upper side of the dielectric substrate is made resonant slot radiators. The electrical length of the slot radiators is configured for the desired operating frequency range of the antenna. For the formation of right or left circular polarized slot radiators swirling around the geometric center of the antenna, respectively provintsii or levobunolol spiral. Slit emitters can include straight and curved segments of equal or different length. On the lower metallized side of the dielectric substrate is made of lead Mat, inner part of which forms an arc. One end of the MICROSTRIP is connected with the feeder, and the other loaded on the active resistance equal to the impedance of MICROSTRIP lines to be formed in the MICROSTRIP traveling wave. The position of the connection points of the feeder and active resistance on the determined desired right or left circular polarization.
The disadvantages of such antennas are high coefficient of elongation and a low level of suppression of the cross-polarization. In addition, feeding Mat, made in the shape of an arc, it is not possible to provide strong inductive relationship with slit emitters needed to extend the operating frequency range of the antenna.
Most similar in essential characteristics is slit strip antenna leaky waves from the radiating structure, including fractal loop [Patent WO 2007/009216 Al Filed: 19 July 2005, Pub. Date: 25 January 2007]. The antenna is made on a dielectric substrate with double-sided metallization. On the upper side of the substrate in the metal made the basic resonant slot radiators, spiral twisted around the geometric center of the antenna. Main slit emitters begin in the Central region of the substrate and end in communication with an additional resonant slot radiators made on the edge of the dielectric substrate and called fractal loops. Gap core and additional emitters are interconnected. The electrical length of the main slot radiators, and an additional slit emitters are configured on the operating frequency range of the antenna.
On the lower metallized side of the dielectric substrate is made of lead was stolen the Naya Mat with several strands. Mat emerges from the center of the antenna and is twisted in a spiral around the geometric center of the antenna so that, crossing the projection of all the slot radiators on the bottom side of the antenna, to provide the desired coupling coefficient between the MICROSTRIP lines and emitters. Implementation lead Mat in the form of a coil with multiple turns can increase the inductive coupling MICROSTRIP resonance slit emitters and thereby extend the operating frequency range of the antenna. In addition, the implementation of MICROSTRIP feed in the form of a few turns of the spiral, the direction of twist which is determined by the required type circular polarization, allows to increase the level of suppression of the cross-polarization.
This slit strip antenna leaky wave with circular polarization is broadband, sabnapravlenii, low profile, has a single phase center coincident with the geometric centre of the antenna. However, the operating frequency range of the antenna is limited. This is because to extend the operating frequency range of this antenna it is necessary to further increase the inductive coupling MICROSTRIP feed with slit emitters. In this antenna, it is difficult, because you must either shift the slit emitters, or change the parameters of the spiral MICROSTRIP feed. Offset emitters etc which leads to poor performance optimally tuned antenna, and changing the pitch of the helix leads to a change in its length, so as to provide connection between the MICROSTRIP feed with all slot radiators. The change in the length of the MICROSTRIP feed leads to inconsistency of its interaction with slit emitters that are configured on the edge of the operating frequency range of the antenna, and, consequently, to poor performance of the antenna.
The technical result of the invention is to improve the technical characteristics of the antenna, in particular: reducing the coefficient of ellipticity, increasing suppress cross-polarization and the extension of the operating frequency range.
This technical result is achieved by the fact that in the inventive antenna containing dielectric substrate on the lower metallized side of which is made of lead MICROSTRIP, having a spiral shape, and the upper metallized side of the main resonant slot radiators, spiral twisted around the geometric center of the antenna and including straight and curved segments of different lengths, it is new that the upper metallized side of the dielectric substrate between the main slit emitters made additional slit with less electrical length than the electrical length of the main slot radiators. Additional slots are not connected with the OS is ESD slotted emitters and made in the form of concentric arcs, located around the geometric center of the antenna, or in the form of segments of spirals. On the lower metallized side of the dielectric substrate is made of microstrip conductors, which are connected by one end with the outer turn of the spiral MICROSTRIP feed and pass under the main slot radiators.
The difference between the claimed antenna from the closest analogue is that on the top metallized side of the dielectric substrate between the spiral twisted main slit emitters made additional slit with less electrical length than the electrical length of the main slot radiators. Additional slits are either in the form of concentric arcs, located around the geometric center of the antenna, either in the form of segments of spirals and not connected with the main slit emitters. On the lower metallized side of the dielectric substrate is made of microstrip conductors, which are connected by one end with the outer turn of the spiral MICROSTRIP feed and pass under the main slot radiators.
Thanks to the additional slits made in the metal of the upper side of the dielectric substrate, the antinodes of the microwave current N-waves more evenly distributed along the main slot radiators of the antenna, which leads to the decrease of the coefficient of ellipticity of the year and the increase in the suppression of cross-polarized antenna. In addition, the implementation of additional cracks with less electrical length than the electrical length of the main slot radiators, allows you to shift the resonance frequency of the additional slots in the higher frequency region, thereby eliminating their influence on the formation of the bottoms of the antenna operating frequency range. Execution on the lower metallized side of the dielectric substrate microstrip conductors connected at one end with the outer turn of the spiral MICROSTRIP feed and passing under the main slot radiators, allows you to enhance the inductive coupling MICROSTRIP feed with the main slit emitters. Thanks a stronger connection lead Mat with the main slit emitters becomes possible to expand the operating frequency range of the antenna. In addition, the implementation of microstrip conductors connected at one end with the outer turn of the spiral MICROSTRIP feed and passing under the main slit emitters allows you to adjust the amount of inductive coupling MICROSTRIP feed with each main slot radiator separately by changing the length of some additional microstrip conductors, without changing the parameters of the entire spiral, which allows to improve the technical characteristics of the antenna.

In figure 1, figure 2 and figure 4 shows some examples of the upper side, and figure 3 is a bottom side of the dielectric substrate (1) declare slot-strip antenna leaky wave with circular polarization. The dielectric substrate has a double-sided metallization. In the metal of the upper side of the substrate is made resonant slotted main emitters, twisted in a spiral around the geometric center of the antenna, which coincides with its phase center. The direction of spin is determined by the desired right or left circular polarization.
The number of main slit emitters can the t to be arbitrary. In particular, figure 1, figure 2 and figure 4 shows embodiments of the antenna from the twelve main slit emitters. Twisted spirally slotted main emitters can include direct(2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13) and curved(14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25) segments of equal or different length.
The geometric length of the main slot radiators can be equal or different from each other. It is approximately equal to the half wavelength (λ/2) or wavelength (λ) N-type, propagating in the planar waveguide emitters of the proposed antenna. This λ/2 or λ can be determined for an arbitrary frequency within the operating frequency range of the antenna. In particular, figure 1 and figure 2 shows the antenna operating on the wave of fashion fluctuations. The most long key slot radiators are tuned approximately to the frequency of 1150 MHz, and the most short - 1620 MHz.
Between the main slit emitters made additional cracks. They are not connected with the main slit emitters. Between the main slit emitters and additional slits is always the metallized area of the dielectric substrate, the width and length of which may vary for different main slit emitters and different additional cracks.
Additional slits may be made in the form of conc the ical arcs around the geometric center of the antenna (1, 4) and also in the form of segments of helices (figure 2). Additional slits have different electrical length. Most short additional slots are located closer to the center of the antenna and marked: 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37 in figure 1, and 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50 figure 2. Closer to the edge of the antenna additional cracks longer (position not defined)than in the Central part of the antenna. This is due to the fact that the main slot radiators are made in the form of segments of a spiral and twisted around the geometric center of the antenna. However, the electrical length of the longest additional slits is less than the electrical length of the shortest main slot radiators. Therefore, the resonance frequency of the additional slots are in the higher frequency range and virtually no effect on the inductive coupling of the main slit emitters with MICROSTRIP feed in the working frequency range of the antenna. It shows figure 5, which shows the frequency dependence of the measured standing wave ratio voltage (VSWR) of the antenna with additional slots (73) and without additional slots (74).
The number of additional slots and their location between the main slit emitters can be arbitrary. In particular, figure 4 shows one of the embodiments the upper side of the antenna, when more is positive slit made in the form of concentric arcs around the geometric center of the antenna and located between spiral twisted main slit emitters only near their end. This positions 66, 67, 68, 69, 70 shows only a portion of the slits made in the form of concentric arcs of different radius.
The antenna can also be applied to the mounting holes (72) and plated holes (71) to suppress surface waves.
On the bottom side of the dielectric substrate of the inventive antenna (figure 3) is made of lead Mat, having the form of a spiral. Spiral MICROSTRIP begins at the geometric center of the antenna (38) and twisted around him in such a way to intersect the projection of the main slit emitters on the bottom side of the antenna. The direction of twist of the spiral is determined by the required type circular polarization. In particular, the feeding MICROSTRIP lines shown in figure 3, is performed for the antenna with right-circular polarization.
The number of turns of the spiral MICROSTRIP may be different. In particular, figure 3 shows a feeding Mat with two turns of the spiral. To establish the mode traveling wave MICROSTRIP loaded on resistance (63), is equal to the wave impedance of MICROSTRIP lines. To extend the operating frequency range of the MICROSTRIP antenna at the end of the spiral (62) can be connected to the screen on the upper metallized side.
The wave impedance at the input MICROSTRIP may differ from the wave resistance of a spiral MICROSTRIP and be consistent with it by using a smooth or step is transformatora resistance. In particular, figure 3 shows a MICROSTRIP with a smooth wave transformer resistance (65).
Microstrip conductors on the lower metallized side of the dielectric substrate are indicated by positions: 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61. Microstrip conductors are connected at one end with the outer turn of the spiral (64) and pass under the main slit emitters. The number of microstrip conductors can be arbitrary, i.e. they can be held under all major emitters, and selectively. Microstrip conductors can be made in any form and include straight and spiral sections. Microstrip conductors can be made equal or different length. Figure 3 shows a special case, when the microstrip conductors on one end distance (R) from the center of the antenna (shown in dashed line).
With the help of the proposed new technical solutions can significantly improve the technical characteristics of the inventive slot-strip antenna leaky wave with circular polarization. In particular, the measured VSWR one of the designed antenna is not more than 1.5 in the frequency range from 1.13 to 1.66 (GTZ) (figure 5). While the inventive antenna is low profile, has a single stable phase center coincident with the geometric centre of the antenna, the izkuyu the coefficient of ellipticity (Fig) and a high level of suppression of the cross-polarization as in the working frequency range (6), and within the working range of angles (7, 9-11), where Θ=0 is the Zenith NAM antenna.
The antenna operates as follows. Microwave signal with circular polarization is taken resonance main slit emitters, twisted in a spiral around the geometric center of the antenna. The electrical length of the main emitters are configured to the required operating frequency range. Thanks to the additional slits in the top metallized side of the dielectric substrate, improves the coefficient of ellipticity of the antenna and increases the suppression of cross-polarization, which increases the resistance of the antenna to multipath. In addition, to suppress multipath antenna placed in a special screen design.
The microwave power from the main slot radiators is passed to the inlet microstrip line. Microstrip conductors are made on the bottom side of the dielectric substrate, enhance electromagnetic coupling MICROSTRIP feed with the main slit emitters. Thanks stronger inductive coupling MICROSTRIP feed with the main slit emitters and regulation of communications Mat with each main slot radiator separately, it becomes possible to expand the operating frequency range of the antenna and improve the technical characteristics of antanifotsy the operating frequency range.
Then through the transformer impedance, performed at the inlet of MICROSTRIP, microwave signal fed into the feeder.
