A 16×16 micro-strip antenna array with high gain characteristic was proposed for the 5.5 GHz WiMAX application. The T-junctions with a power ratio of 2∶1 were used to design the feed network. To correct the stepped discontinuity of impedance change in common multi-section impedance transformer, exponential line matching transformers were adopted in the WiMAX frequency band. The reflection coefficient was lower than-15 dB from 5.08 GHz to 5.87 GHz. The measured gain of the antenna array achieved 29.8 dBi on E-plane at 5.8 GHz.
提出了一种新的小型化、宽频带的多频微带天线该天线具备三个不同的工作频段,可同时工作在蓝牙、无线射频识别(Radio Frequency Identification Devices,RFID)、无线局域网(Wireless Local Area Network,WLAN)和全球微波互联接入(Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access,WiMAX)的通信频段上.该微带天线主要由四个半圆环、一个圆环、一个矩形带以及缺陷地组成.为了获得结构的小型化,通过在四个半圆环中增加一个圆环来激发出该天线的两个谐振频率,通过改进地板为带圆形缺陷的拱结构来获得第三个阻抗匹配良好的频段.实测结果显示:该天线在工作频段具有很好的辐射特性和增益.
