Description
技术领域 technical field
本发明涉及架设在碟型天线反射焦点位置且用以接收特定频带的卫星信号的导波管(feed horn),特别涉及一种具有用以分别接收两种不同频带的卫星信号(例如Ku频带信号(Ku band signal)以及S频带信号(S band signal))且同轴设置的一内导波管与一外导波管的双频导波管。The present invention relates to a waveguide (feed horn) which is set up at the reflective focus position of a dish antenna and is used to receive satellite signals of a specific frequency band, and particularly relates to a waveguide (feed horn) which is used to receive satellite signals of two different frequency bands (such as Ku frequency band signals) respectively. (Ku band signal) and S band signal (S band signal)) and a dual-frequency waveguide with an inner waveguide and an outer waveguide coaxially arranged.
背景技术 Background technique
在卫星信号的传送与接收过程中,导波管(feed horn)是一种用来接收卫星所发出的信号,并将接收的卫星信号馈送至一信号处理器(例如一低噪声降频器(loW noise block downconvertor),以下简称LNB)的构件,当导波管搭配一抛物线碟型天线(parabolic dish)使用时,该导波管的最佳设置位置是在该碟型天线的反射焦点位置处,此时该导波管能最有效地接收由该碟型天线所反射的卫星信号。In the process of transmitting and receiving satellite signals, the feed horn is a kind of signal used to receive the signal sent by the satellite, and feed the received satellite signal to a signal processor (such as a low noise frequency reducer ( loW noise block downconvertor), hereinafter referred to as LNB), when the waveguide is used with a parabolic dish antenna (parabolic dish), the best setting position of the waveguide is at the reflection focus position of the dish antenna , at this time the waveguide can most effectively receive the satellite signal reflected by the dish antenna.
早期针对单一卫星所发出的卫星电视信号,是利用一组包含有一碟型天线、一导波管以及一LNB的卫星信号接收装置来接收,若要接收二颗卫星所发出的卫星信号,则需要利用二组卫星信号接收装置来达到。假使用户欲同时接收两颗相近的卫星所发射的不同卫星信号,或同一颗卫星所发出的两种不同波频的卫星信号,例如一为S频带另一为Ku频带的卫星信号,现行的作法是将二个分别接收不同卫星信号的导波管并列设置在同一碟型天线上,然而,导波管占有一定的空间,且接收不同波频的导波管具有不同的口径,例如接收S频带的导波管的口径即远大于接收Ku频带的导波管口径,而碟型天线的聚焦范围具有一定的限度,因此现行将二个导波管并列设置在同一碟型天线上的作法,将因二个导波管并无法确实地同时设置在碟型天线的反射焦点处,以致减损了各个导波管所能接收到的卫星信号强度。其次,并列的导波管具有相当大的体积,相对地提高了碟型天线的有效信号接收面积的遮蔽率。换言之,如何在有限的碟型天线空间上,设置两种可有效地接收相邻卫星或同一卫星所发出的两种不同频带的卫星信号的导波管,是业者努力要解决的问题。Early satellite TV signals sent by a single satellite were received by a set of satellite signal receiving devices including a dish antenna, a waveguide and an LNB. To receive satellite signals from two satellites, you need Utilize two groups of satellite signal receiving devices to achieve. If the user wants to receive different satellite signals from two nearby satellites at the same time, or two different frequency satellite signals from the same satellite, for example, one is the S-band and the other is the Ku-band satellite signal, the current practice Two waveguides that receive different satellite signals are arranged side by side on the same dish antenna. However, waveguides occupy a certain space, and waveguides that receive different wave frequencies have different calibers, such as receiving S-band The caliber of the waveguide is much larger than the caliber of the waveguide for receiving the Ku frequency band, and the focusing range of the dish antenna has a certain limit. Therefore, the current practice of setting two waveguides side by side on the same dish antenna will Because the two waveguides cannot be set at the reflection focus of the dish antenna at the same time, the satellite signal intensity received by each waveguide is reduced. Secondly, the parallel waveguides have a relatively large volume, which relatively increases the shielding rate of the effective signal receiving area of the dish antenna. In other words, how to install two waveguides that can effectively receive satellite signals of two different frequency bands from adjacent satellites or the same satellite in the limited space of the dish antenna is a problem that the industry is trying to solve.

该外导波管20具有一开放端部20a、一封闭端部20b,以及一介于该开放端部20a与该封闭端部20b之间的第一导波空间20c。详而言之,该外导波管20主要是由一具有前述开放端部20a的集波部22,以及一与该集波部22衔接且具有前述封闭端部20b的圆柱形管体24所组成,藉此,该管体24的内部空间可形成前述的第一导波空间20c,或者该管体24的内部空间与该集波部22的内部空间可一起定义出前述第一导波空间20c。然而,该外导波管20并不以前述构造为限,例如该外导波管20可以是一体成型的管件。其次,在该管体24中设置有一水平极化探针26与一垂直极化探针28,该等探针26、28是垂直穿过该管体24的管壁而分别突伸悬置于该第一导波空间20c中,而且该等探针26、28投影在该第一导波空间20c的一横向截面上时(例如该管体的底部上时)是呈现相互垂直状,用以分别接收同频段中电场振动方向相互垂直的两种电磁波。此外,该管体的外周面固设有一用以处理第一卫星信号的LNB的基座29,该基座29中设置有与所述探针26、28电性导通的一LNB电子电路(图中未示)。在此需说明的是,LNB的设置位置并不以前述为限,而且所述探针26、28与LNB的作用原理是属现有技术,故在此不予赘述。The outer waveguide 20 has an
进一步言之,该集波部22具有一固定于该外导波管20的管体24的开放端部24a的固定环22a,以及环绕于该固定环22a外周面且直径依序递增的第一环状导引部22b与第二环状导引部22c。然而,该集波部22的结构特征依所需接收第一卫星信号的极化种类如线性极化、圆极化、或椭圆极化等的不同而可对应变化为矩形、圆形、椭圆形或自椭圆外廓渐转为圆形者,因此并不以此接收圆极化的环形构造为限;且依其信号增益或旁波抑制频宽的规格而设计结构尺寸,因此更不以此同轴双环构造为限,例如,以第七图所揭示的本发明第二较佳实施例所提供的双频导波管10为例,该集波部22仅设置有一环状导引部22b,或者,如第八图所揭示的本发明第三较佳实施例所提供的双频导波管10为例,该集波部22具有一自其固定环22a外周面向外喇叭状延伸(也即直径渐趋扩大)的导引部22b。换言之,前述各种形状的集波部或其它形状的集波部皆可应用于本发明所提供的双频导波管10中。In further words, the
其次,该管体24基本上是为一一端开放且另一端封闭的圆柱形管体。详而言之,该管体24具有一与该集波部22衔接的开放端部24a、一具有一中心穿孔24b的封闭端部24c(形成该外导波管20的封闭端部20b),以及位于该开放端部24a与该封闭端部24c之间的圆柱形内部空间。其次,该管体封闭端部的内表面24d,是形成一反射面,而该外导波管的水平极化探针26与垂直极化探针28与该反射面24d的距离是为所预定接收的第一卫星信号的波长的四分之一的奇数倍(2N+1倍,N为正整数);当然,为了维持垂直与水平极化信号相互的隔离性,且基于信号强度及节省空间考虑,可使水平极化探针26与垂直极化探针28与该反射面24d的距离分别为所预定接收的第一卫星信号的波长的四分之三与四分一,也即3/4λ与1/4λ。换言之,所述探针26、28突伸于该管体24内部空间中时,是有高低落差而不在同一平面上。Secondly, the
该内导波管30主要包含有一二端开放的圆柱形管体32、一设置于该管体32一端的介电材质导波件(dielectric waveguide)34,以及一连接于该管体32另一端且固定于该外导波管20管体24的封闭端部24c的底座36,藉此,该介电材质导波件34、该管体32的内部空间以及该底座36可界定出一第二导波空间30a。The inner waveguide 30 mainly includes a
在本实施例中,该内导波管30的底座36是可利用处理第二卫星信号的LNB的基座来实现,换言之,该底座36除了用以连接该外导波管20并支撑该管体32与介电材质导波件34于该第一导波空间20c中的外,该底座中尚可容置有LNB的电子电路(图中未示)。另一方面,该底座36具有一圆柱形的容置空间36a,是同轴对应地连通该内导波管30的管体32的内部空间,并与该内导波管管体32的内部空间一同形成该第二导波空间30a。然而,界定出该第二导波空间30a的结构并不以前述的实施例为限,例如该第二导波空间30a可以完全由该内导波管的管体32的内部空间所构成。In this embodiment, the
其次,该内导波管30还包含有分别突伸于该第二导波空间30a中且投影在该第二导波空间30a的一横向截面上时呈现相互垂直状的一水平极化探针38与一垂直极化探针40。详而言之,该内导波管30的底座36具有一位于其容置空间36a底端的反射面36b,而该内导波管30的水平极化探针38与垂直极化探针40是分别突伸于该底座36的容置空间36a中,且与该底座36的反射面36b较为接近(如本实施例为垂直极化探针40)与反射面36b的距离是为所预定接收的第二卫星信号的波长的四分之一的奇数倍,若以信号强度及节省空间考虑即为第二卫星信号的波长的四分之一,也即1/4λ。此外,该水平极化探针38与该垂直极化探针40之间更设置有一反射件42,且该反射件42与该水平极化探针38的距离是为1/4λ,同于上述垂直极化探针40以信号强度及节省空间考虑,且用以加强水平极化电磁波的信号反射效果。换言之,所述探针38、40突伸于该第二导波空间30a中时,是有高低落差而不在同一平面上。然而,所述探针38、40的设置型态并不以前述为限,例如,请参阅图9,为本案申请人于中国台湾专利公告第511783号所提供的另一可行的内导波管底座36’实施实施例的立体分解示意图,其中水平极化探针38’与垂直极化探针40’是建置在LNB的电路板44上,且位于同一水平面上。Secondly, the inner waveguide 30 also includes a horizontally polarized probe protruding from the
此外,请特别参阅图2及图4到图6,该底座36具有具有一圆形凸缘36c,以及以等角度分布方式贯穿该凸缘36c的多个圆弧状槽孔36d,且该容置空间36a的入口端的壁面设置有螺纹36e。如此一来,通过该螺纹36e可使该底座36与该管体32衔接,且通过分别穿过各该底座圆弧状槽孔36d且锁合于该外导波管20封闭端部20b的如螺丝36f等固定件,使得该底座36可以与该外导波管20相互固定。此时,该内导波管30的管体32是穿过该外导波管20封闭端部20b的中心穿孔24b,而连同该介电材质导波件34被支撑在该第一导波空间20c的轴心位置,也即,同轴地悬置于该外导波管20的管体24中。此外,通过该圆弧状槽孔36d的设计,使得该底座36固定于该外导波管20封闭端部20b上时,该底座36可在该圆弧状槽孔36d的左右二端所界定的范围内相对该外导波管20同轴旋转至一特定对应第二卫星信号发射端的方位角,之后再通过螺丝36f固定该底座36的位置,以确保该水平极化探针38与垂直极化探针40能有效地接收该第二卫星信号。换言之,通过该圆弧状槽孔36d的设计,本发明所提供的双频导波管10可以调整该内导波管30管体32相对该外导波管20的方位角,俾使该内导波管30能有效地接收卫星信号。此等可调整该内导波管30的设置方位角的设计,特别适用于该第一及第二卫星信号是由二颗不同但相近的卫星所发出的情况。若是该第一及第二卫星信号是由同一颗卫星所发出,则可不设置前述调整机构,而直接将底座36固定在该外导波管20上,例如,采用第九图所示的底座36’设计,将水平极化探针38’与垂直极化探针40’建置在电路板44上,并利用螺丝(图中未示)穿过该底座凸缘的穿孔而将底座36’直接固定在该外导波管20上。In addition, referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 4 to FIG. 6, the
该内导波管30的介电材质导波件34是用以导引高频卫星信号,由于该导波件34是由诸如聚碳酸酯(polycarbonate)、聚乙烯(polyethylene)、聚丙烯(polypropylene)、聚苯乙烯(polystyrene)以及丙烯腈-丁二烯-苯乙烯共聚物(acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene)此类的介电材料所制成,因此对于该外导波管20所接收的低频卫星信号不会产生影响。在结构上,该介电材质导波件34具有一外端部34a以及一与该外端部34a相对且塞设于该内导波管30的管体32中的内端部34b,藉以导引第二卫星信号至该第二导波空间30a中。进一步言的,该外端部34a具有一中心锥部34a1、一与该中心锥部34a1同轴地围绕在该中心锥部34a1周缘的环状部34a2,以及一位于该中心锥部34a1与该环状部34a2之间的环状凹槽34a3。通过此等环状部34a2与环状凹槽34a3的设计,可达到良好的旁波抑制效果。同样地,该介电材质导波件34的内端部34b具有一中心锥部34b1、一与该中心锥部34b1同轴地围绕在该中心锥部34b1周缘的环状部34b2、一位于该中心锥部34b1与该环状部34b2之间的环状凹槽34b3,以及一与该中心锥部34b1同轴地围绕在该环状部34b2周缘的固定环34b4。组装时,该固定环34b4是塞设于该内导波管30管体32中,使该介电材质导波件34与该管体32可同轴衔接。此时,该介电材质导波件34有一部分是位于该集波部22的导引部22b中。也即,该介电材质导波件34的设置位置是靠近该集波部22的入口端,以有效地导引该第二卫星信号。然而,该介电材质导波件34的外端部34a以及内端部34b的结构特征依所需接收第二卫星信号的极化种类如线性极化、圆极化、或椭圆极化等的不同而可对应变化为矩形、圆形、椭圆形或自椭圆外廓渐转为圆形者,因此并不以此接收圆极化的环形构造为限;且依其信号增益或旁波抑制频宽的规格而设计结构尺寸,因此更不以此同轴双环构造的环状部34a2、34b2的两个环形数量为限。The
通过以上的结构设计,由于该底座36固定于该外导波管20的封闭端部20b上的方式,是使得该内导波管30管体32与该介电材质导波件34可与该第一导波空间20c同轴地位于该外导波管20中,因此,当本发明所提供的双频导波管10架设于一碟型天线(图中未示)上时,同轴设置的第一导波空间20c与第二导波空间30a可同时对正碟型天线的反射焦点,而有效地分别接收第一卫星信号与第二卫星信号。其次,由于该内导波管30的介电材质导波件34与管体32是同轴地设置在该外导波管20中,因此与习知利用并列型态设置的双频导波管相较,本发明的双频导波管10具有较小的整体体积。Through the above structural design, due to the manner in which the
