Polarization Isolation Characteristics Between Two Center-Feed Single-Layer Waveguide Arrays Arranged Side-by-Side (Invited Paper)
نویسندگان
چکیده
The near field coupling between two large alternating-phase fed single-layer waveguide arrays arranged side-by-side is analyzed by the Finite Element Method (FEM) (HFSS). First, the overall reflection as well as the radiation pattern from the array (320 slots and 18.4λ x 14.9λ ) is analyzed, and excellent agreement with measurements is observed. Next, the isolation between two arrays is computed, and remarkable polarization isolations of more than 80 dB are predicted. The isolation is verified by measurements. The influence of the relative arrangement of the arrays upon the isolation is discussed.

Isolation between H-plane Arranged Two Waveguide Slot Antennas including a Radome
In wireless communication systems applying FDD (Frequency Division Duplex), the transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx) operate at different carrier frequencies. One subject for expansion of radio spectrum resources is how to use the provided frequency band more effectively. Waveguide slot antennas have the feature of very high level of cross polarization discrimination (XPD) [1]. Polarized Division...
متن کاملA Single-Layer Wideband Dual-Polarized Antenna with High Isolation
A single-layer wideband printed antenna for dual-polarized applications is proposed in this paper. Two orthogonal linear polarizations are achieved by adopting a hybrid feeding technique. The horizontal polarization is excited by an aperture-coupled microstrip feed line while the coplanar waveguide (CPW) feed line is responsible for the vertical polarization. Measurements demonstrate a fairly w...
