Abstract:
In view of the unique spatial electromagnetic field distribution characteristics embodied in vortex electromagnetic waves and the theoretical orthogonal characteristics of infinite dimensional modal orthogonal of the orbital angular momentum they carry, vortex electromagnetic waves show important research value and application potential in the field of wireless communication and radar detection and imaging. Starting from the electromagnetic field distribution and principle of vortex electromagnetic waves, aiming at the problems of large structure size and large modal interference of the current hybrid modal vortex wave antenna, an anti-interference hybrid mode vortex electromagnetic wave array antenna based on stripline stacked structure is designed. A hybrid modal antenna array with a stacked structure is designed in the C-band, and two feed networks, namely 1∶4 and 1∶8, are designed based on the advantages of stripline shielding performance, as well as physical processing and near and far field tests. By adding the software-defined radio platform to build a wireless transceiver transmission link, it is verified that the multi-channel signal transmission characteristics of the antenna array are correctly demultiplexed and the isolation degree is good, so as to improve the spectral efficiency.
