This paper studies a fuze radome system applied to millimeter waves. The system consists of feed antenna, radome, planar FSS array or curve conformal array. Microstrip antenna is used as the feed antenna. Based on the principle of equispaced and equal period respectively, cross units loading single layer dielectric form planar and curve FSS array. The FSS radome system can improve the permeability of hood to electromagnetic waves (EM) of passband, and reduce the interference of complex EM in the external environment to the system. The FSS radome will not deteriorate radiation characteristics of the feed antenna. The planar FSS radome has a passband of 98.2 GHz to 101.55 GHz with -10dB relative bandwidth of 3.35%. The curve FSS radome has a passband of 96.3 GHz to 101.8 GHz with -10dB relative bandwidth of 5.5%. In addition, the radiation characteristics of the proposed system are analyzed. It is found that the radiation pattern of the antenna is basically consistency before and after loading the radome.

Research And Design

Based on the magnetic materials (JV-5) substrate, Double L-shaped slot microstrip antenna is designed. The bandwidth is over 2 times that of the normal substrate and a 40% reduction in size happens.. On this basis, the microstrip antenna with magnetic substrate EBG structure is designed and the EBG structure uses the corrosive effects of joint floor, namely getting periodic H-shaped and circular structures by the floor corrosion, and performing a simulation with HFSS14.0. The results show that the EBG structure of magnetic material having a prominent advantage of the miniaturization and bandwidth-broaden compared to a microstrip antenna with non-magnetic materials substrate, resulting in more than 10% relative bandwidth and a slight gain loss. To some degree, introducing EBG structure can reduce the size of the antenna and increase its bandwidth, and it also improve the gain and radiation characteristics of the antenna.Key words: EBG structure; magnetic material;Double L-shaped slot microstrip antenna; gain

AbstractTo prevent far-field radiation characteristics degradation while increasing bandwidth, an attempt has been made to design and fabricate a microstrip antenna. An electromagnetic band gap (EBG) structure, including a layer of a metallic ring on a layer of Rogers 4003C substrate, is used. For a better design, a patch antenna with and without the EBG substrate has been simulated. The results show that the bandwidth can be improved up to 1.6 GHz in X-band by adding the EBG substrate. Furthermore, using this structure, a dual-band antenna was obtained as well. Finally, to validate the simulation results, a comparison has been done between simulation data and experimental results which demonstrate good agreement.

Relative Bandwidth

A single-layer capsule-shaped polarization conversion metasurface (PCM) is proposed in this paper. In the W-band, its polarization conversion rate (PCR) exceeds 97%, effectively changing the polarization direction of the incident wave. PCM is arranged in a chessboard array to achieve broadband RCS reduction. Placing the PCM array on a circularly polarized sequentially rotated slot antenna array, simulated results show that the radiation characteristics of the antenna array are hardly affected by the PCM array. The results of measurement demonstrate that the RCS of the antenna array with PCM array proposed is reduced by more than 10 dB from 40 to 119 GHz; the relative bandwidth (−10 dB) reaches 96.3%.

Abstract The radiation characteristics of the microstrip antenna (MSA) on the frequency selective surface (FSS) based absorbing layer is presented in this paper. It is observed that an absorbing layer placed between the MSA configuration and the ground plane helps in controlling the radiation characteristics of the antenna. It not only reduces the back lobe but also reduces the beamwidth and gain of the antenna simultaneously. This is because the absorbing layer absorbs some amount of power radiated by the antenna in both forward and backward directions. The proposed design is simulated using Ansys HFSS electromagnetic simulation software and the results are validated by comparing it with the results obtained from the equivalent circuit approach as well as experimental results. The effect of absorber on radiation characteristics of the radiator demonstrates its potential use in suppressing the radiation from the printed circuit board traces.

AbstractThe recent advent of acoustic metamaterials offers unprecedented opportunities for sound controlling in various occasions, whereas it remains a challenge to attain broadband high sound absorption and free air flow simultaneously. Here, we demonstrated, both theoretically and experimentally, that this problem can be overcome by using a bilayer ventilated labyrinthine metasurface. By altering the spacing between two constituent single-layer metasurfaces and adopting asymmetric losses in them, near-perfect (98.6%) absorption is achieved at resonant frequency for sound waves incident from the front. The relative bandwidth of absorption peak can be tuned in a wide range (from 12% to 80%) by adjusting the open area ratio of the structure. For sound waves from the back, the bilayer metasurface still serves as a sound barrier with low transmission. Our results present a strategy to realize high sound absorption and free air flow simultaneously, and could find applications in building acoustics and noise remediation.

Abstract A single-layer ultra-wideband (UWB) stop-band frequency selective surface (FSS) has several advantages in wireless systems, including a simple design, low debugging complexity, and an appropriate thickness. This study proposes a miniaturized UWB stop-band FSS design. The proposed FSS structure consists of a square-loop and metalized vias that are arranged on a single layer substrate; it has an excellent angle and polarization-independent characteristics. At an incident angle of 60°, the polarization response frequencies of the transverse electric and magnetic modes only shifted by 0.003 f0 and 0.007 f0, respectively. The equivalent circuit models of the square-loop and metallized vias structure are analysed and the accuracy of the calculation is evaluated by comparing the electromagnetic simulation. The 20 × 20 array constitutes an FSS reflector with a unit size of 4.2 mm × 4.2 mm (less than one-twentieth of the wavelength of 3 GHz), which realizes an UWB quasi-constant gain enhancement (in-band flatness is <0.5 dB). Finally, the simulation results were verified through sample processing and measurement; consistent results were obtained. The FSS miniaturization design method proposed in this study could be applied to the design of passband FSS (complementary structure), antennas and filters, among other applications.
